+## [v1.0.14](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/tree/v1.0.14) - 2023-01-23
+
+[Full Changelog](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/compare/v1.0.13...v1.0.14)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The -D parameter could not be used together with -a.
+
+- Fixed invalid argv handling: when the user wanted to read from stdin
+  but gave an argument which was  meant as a pattern, but also existed
+  as a filename, then tablizer opened the file, ignored stdin.
+  
+- Makefile indentation
+
+  
+### Added
+
+- added licens notes about dependencies
+
+- using hard coded uniseq version, see actions#3396457307
+
+- updated dependencies (go module versions)
+
+
+## [v1.0.13](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/tree/v1.0.13) - 2022-11-03
+
+[Full Changelog](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/compare/v1.0.12...v1.0.13)
+
+### Added
+
+- Added command line flag to generate shell completion code
+
+- Added an animated demo gif to the README to demonstrate the tool
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The `-A` flag wasn't implemented (default output mode).
+
+- Fixed building from source on systems w/o perls pod tools,
+  which is not requrired anyway since I always commit the latest
+  manpage.
+
+
+## [v1.0.12](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/tree/v1.0.12) - 2022-10-25
+
+[Full Changelog](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/compare/v1.0.11...v1.0.12)
+
+### Added
+
+- Added support to parse CSV input
+
+- Added CSV output support
+
+- Added support for environment variables
+
+### Changed
+
+- We do not use the generated help message anymore, instead we use the
+  usage from the  manpage, which we have to maintain  anyway. It looks
+  better and has flag groups, which  cobra is still lacking as of this
+  writing.
+  
+-  More refactoring  and  re-organization,  runtime configuration  now
+  lives in the cfg module.
+  
+  
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed  [Bug #5](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/issues/5), where
+  matches have not been highlighted correctly in some rare cases.
+
+
+
+## [v1.0.11](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/tree/v1.0.11) - 2022-10-19
+
+[Full Changelog](https://github.com/TLINDEN/tablizer/compare/v1.0.10...v1.0.11)
+
+### Added
+
+- Added CI job golinter to regularly check for common mistakes.
+
+- Added YAML output mode.
+
+- Added more unit tests, we're over 95% in the lib module.
+
+### Changed
+
+- do  not use any global  variables anymore, makes the  code easier to
+  maintain, understand and test
+
+- using io.Writer  in print* functions, which is easier  to test, also
+  re-implemented the print tests.
+
+- replaced go-str2duration with my own implementation `duration2int()`.

 DESCRIPTION
@@ -77,6 +88,11 @@ DESCRIPTION
 
     The numbering can be suppressed by using the -n option.
 
+    By default tablizer shows a header containing the names of each column.
+    This can be disabled using the --no-headers option. Be aware that this
+    only affects tabular output modes. Shell, Extended, Yaml and CSV output
+    modes always use the column names.
+
     By default, if a pattern has been speficied, matches will be
     highlighted. You can disable this behavior with the -N option.
 
@@ -178,7 +194,63 @@ DESCRIPTION
 
     Beside normal ascii mode (the default) and extended mode there are more
     output modes available: orgtbl which prints an Emacs org-mode table and
-    markdown which prints a Markdown table.
+    markdown which prints a Markdown table, yaml, which prints yaml encoding
+    and CSV mode, which prints a comma separated value file.
+
+  ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
+    tablizer supports certain environment variables which use can use to
+    influence program behavior. Commandline flags have always precedence
+    over environment variables.
+
+    <T_NO_HEADER_NUMBERING> - disable numbering of header fields, like -n.
+    <T_COLUMNS> - comma separated list of columns to output, like -c
+    <NO_COLORS> - disable colorization of matches, like -N
+
+  COMPLETION
+    Shell completion for command line options can be enabled by using the
+    --completion flag. The required parameter is the name of your shell.
+    Currently supported are: bash, zsh, fish and powershell.
+
+    Detailed instructions:
+
+    Bash:
+           source <(tablizer --completion bash)
+
+        To load completions for each session, execute once:
+
+          # Linux:
+          $ tablizer --completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/tablizer
+
+          # macOS:
+          $ tablizer --completion bash > $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/tablizer
+
+    Zsh:
+        If shell completion is not already enabled in your environment, you
+        will need to enable it. You can execute the following once:
+
+          echo "autoload -U compinit; compinit" >> ~/.zshrc
+
+        To load completions for each session, execute once:
+
+          $ tablizer --completion zsh > "${fpath[1]}/_tablizer"
+
+        You will need to start a new shell for this setup to take effect.
+
+    fish:
+           tablizer --completion fish | source
+
+        To load completions for each session, execute once:
+
+           tablizer --completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/tablizer.fish
+
+    PowerShell:
+           tablizer --completion powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression
+
+        To load completions for every new session, run:
+
+           tablizer --completion powershell > tablizer.ps1
+
+        and source this file from your PowerShell profile.
