+From people using z.lua:
+
+- I like this in principal. I’m pretty damn predictable at the command line and far too lazy to make shortcuts
+- It feels far more intuitive and it's so incredibly convenient to be able to jump between folders I'm working in without having to traverse an entire tree. The shell used to feel so constraining for me, but tools like this are making me enjoy it so much more. 
+- I can finally have autojump-like functionality on my Raspberry Pi 1 without waiting 30 seconds every time I open a new shell. Thanks z.lua devs.
+- Anyway, z.lua is a promising project. If you only need directory jumping, it may be the best choice.

 ## Features
 
 - **10x** times faster than **fasd** and **autojump**, **3x** times faster than **z.sh**.
+- Gain the ultimate speed with an optional [native module](https://github.com/skywind3000/czmod) written in C.
 - Available for **posix shells**: bash, zsh, dash, sh, ash, ksh, busybox and etc.
 - Available for Fish Shell, Power Shell and Windows cmd.
 - [Enhanced matching algorithm](#enhanced-matching) takes you to where ever you want precisely.
 - Allow updating database only if `$PWD` changed with "$_ZL_ADD_ONCE" set to 1.
 - Interactive selection enables you to choose where to go before cd.
-- Intergrated with FZF (optional) for interactive selection and completion.
+- Integrated with FZF (optional) for interactive selection and completion.
 - Quickly go back to a parent directory instead of typing "cd ../../..".
 - Corresponding experience in different shells and operating systems. 
-- Compatible with Lua 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3+
+- Compatible with Lua (5.1, 5.2, 5.3+) and luajit.
 - Self contained, distributed as a single `z.lua` script, no other dependence.

-- "It feels far more intuitive and it's so incredibly convenient to be able to jump between folders I'm working in without having to traverse an entire tree. The shell used to feel so constraining for me, but tools like this are making me enjoy it so much more. "
-- "I can finally have autojump-like functionality on my Raspberry Pi 1 without waiting 30 seconds every time I open a new shell. Thanks z.lua devs."
-- "Anyway, z.lua is a promising project. If you only need directory jumping, it may be the best choice."
 
 
 ## History
 
+- 1.8.7 (2020-06-29): use lfs or luajit's cffi if possible.
+- 1.8.4 (2020-02-10): fish shell: set `$_ZL_ECHO` to global scope.
+- 1.8.3 (2020-02-09): new: `z -b -i` and `z -b -I` to jump backwards in interactive mode.
+- 1.7.4 (2019-12-29): new: `$_ZL_HYPHEN` to treat hyphen as a normal character, see [here](https://github.com/skywind3000/z.lua/wiki/FAQ#how-to-input-a-hyphen---in-the-keyword-).
+- 1.7.3 (2019-09-07): use [lua-filesystem](http://keplerproject.github.io/luafilesystem/) package if possible when `$_ZL_USE_LFS` is `1`.
+- 1.7.2 (2019-08-01): Improve bash/zsh shell compatibility by [@barlik](https://github.com/barlik).
+- 1.7.1 (2019-06-07): Fixed: `$_ZL_DATA` failure on Linux sometimes.
+- 1.7.0 (2019-03-09): Support [ranger](https://github.com/skywind3000/z.lua/wiki/FAQ#how-to-integrate-zlua-to-ranger-), fix ReplaceFile issue in luajit (windows).
+- 1.6.0 (2019-03-04): optimize with ffi module (luajit builtin module).
+- 1.5.11 (2019-03-02): fixed: os.path.isdir doesn't work for symbol link folders.
+- 1.5.10 (2019-03-01): Prevent writing file racing.
+- 1.5.9 (2019-02-25): `z -b` should not match current directory (close #56).
+- 1.5.8 (2019-02-21): new `$_ZL_FZF_HEIGHT` to control `--height` parameter in fzf.
+- 1.5.7 (2019-02-21): rename `$_ZL_FZF_SORT` to `$_ZL_INT_SORT` it will affect both `-i` and `-I`.
+- 1.5.6 (2019-02-20): set `$_ZL_FZF_SORT` to 1 to sort directories by alphabet in fzf.
 - 1.5.5 (2019-02-20): `$_ZL_FZF_FLAG` can be used to override fzf flags, default to "+s -e".
 - 1.5.4 (2019-02-19): fixed: file/path existence detection fails on read-only fs (closed [#49](https://github.com/skywind3000/z.lua/issues/49) by [@contrun](https://github.com/contrun)).
 - 1.5.3 (2019-02-17): new `$_ZL_FZF_FLAG` for passing additional flags to fzf, add `-e` argument to fzf.
