<h3>HOWTO: Converting Wiki Record Reference to POD</h3>
<p>Some documentation has been added to the <tt>dbdToHtml.pl</tt> script
explaining how Perl POD (Plain Old Documentation) markup can be added to
<tt>.dbd</tt> files to generate HTML documentation for the record types. To see
these instructions, run <tt>perl&nbsp;bin/&lt;host&gt;/dbdToHtml.pl&nbsp;-H</tt>
or <tt>perldoc&nbsp;bin/&lt;host&gt;/dbdToHtml.pl</tt>.</p>
<h3>Fix problem with numeric soft events</h3>
<p>Changing from numeric to named soft events introduced an incompatibility
when a numeric event 1-255 is converted from a DOUBLE, e.g. from a calc record.
The <tt>post_event()</tt> API is not marked deprecated any more.
