+## 0.1.4
+
+- Breaking change (for those who used it): the named anchor syntax has changed
+  from `@anchorname` to `$anchorname`. This is to avoid conflicts with
+  potentialy future use of `@` for other purposes (like mentioning people).
+  Linking to an anchor still uses the `[[page@anchorname]]` syntax. So, you
+  create an anchor $likethis you can then reference it [[@likethis]].
