# Release 2.3
-* Improved logic for the network layer.
-* More efficient coin selection. Spend oldest coins first, and
- minimize the number of transaction inputs.
-* Plugins are independent from the GUI. For example, the openalias
- plugin can be used with the command line, as follows:
- ./electrum payto <alias> <amount>
-* The command line has been refactored:
- - arguments are parsed with argparse.
- - the help was improved and includes options
-* The command line accepts the '!' shortcut to send the maximum amount.
- Example: mktx <destination> ! --from <from_address>
-* The command line also accepts a '?' shortcut for private keys
- arguments, that triggers a prompt.
-* Payment requests can be managed with the command line, using the
- following commands: addrequest, rmrequest, listrequests.
-* Payment requests can be signed with a SSL certificate, and published
- in a public web directory. 'electrum addrequest -h' shows the
- relevant configuration variables.
-* Commands can be called with a new jsonrpc interface; the jsonrpc
- interface may be used on a webserver in combination with php.
+ * Improved logic for the network layer.
+ * More efficient coin selection. Spend oldest coins first, and
+ minimize the number of transaction inputs.
+ * Plugins are loaded independently of the GUI. As a result, Openalias,
+ TrustedCoin and Trezor wallets can be used with the command
+ line. Example: 'electrum payto <openalias> <amount>'
+ * The command line has been refactored:
+ - Arguments are parsed with argparse.
+ - The inline help includes a description of options.
+ - Some commands have been renamed. Notably, 'mktx' and 'payto' have
+ been merged into a single command, with a --broadcast option.
+ Type 'electrum --help' for a complete overview.
+ * The command line accepts the '!' syntax to send the maximum
+ amount available. It can be combined with the '--from' option.
+ Example: 'payto <destination> ! --from <from_address>'
+ * The command line also accepts a '?' shortcut for private keys
+ arguments, that triggers a prompt.
+ * Payment requests can be managed with the command line, using the
+ following commands: 'addrequest', 'rmrequest', 'listrequests'.
+ Payment requests can be signed with a SSL certificate, and published
+ as bip70 files in a public web directory. To see the relevant
+ configuration variables, type 'electrum addrequest --help'
+ * Commands can be called with jsonrpc, using the 'jsonrpc' gui. The
+ jsonrpc interface may be called by php.
