 :::info
 The Rascal type-checker which is available in the VScode extension is reaching maturity. The `.tpl` file format has changed, which requires everybody to throw the old ones away. The new type checker checks `.tpl` file versions and reports possible conflicts. Use `mvn clean` or remove your `bin` or `target` folders for all your projects and library projects today.

 A great deal of tests were fixed, enhanced or extended as a side-effect of the compiler project. Another visible aspect of the progress of the compiler is that now all Rascal runtime values (from vallang and beyond) now support `getFingerprint()` methods which help in optimizing pattern matching and dispatch in generated code by the compiler. These  methods' return values have become a strict contract for future implementations of Rascal values, including parse trees and reified types and first-class functions.

    * Tree2Box is a new language-parametric  formatter that maps any parse tree to Box using default heuristics. They trigger on the shape of production rules as they are typically found in programming languages. Tree2Box is a re-implementation of the
 `pandora` tool of the ASF+SDF Meta-Environment, but written in Rascal instead of C+ApiGen. You can override default behavior by adding rules for your exceptional language constructs.

 parsed and treated as (DSL) source code.
 * `lang::json::IO` now has full origin tracking support.
 * `util::Monitor` progress monitoring is now also supported on textual interfaces using UTF8 and ANSI support for pretty bars. If UTF8 is not supported by the terminal, it used ASCII art. If ANSI is not available, it defaults to normal event logging prins on the console. The progress bar will always default to the latter if in a CI environment of if `-Drascal.monitor.batch` is set.
