| Version | Published | Release Notes | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.6.0 | Patchslim now uses the built-in command unique() and is approximately 30x faster, thanks to John D'Errico for the excellent suggestion! I often use unique(), but hadn't realized that it also has a mode to operate on rows. |

| 1.5.0 | I changed the H1 line so that it is more descriptive. |
