+## 4.0.0 (June 5, 2026)
+
+### Summary
+
+`cmd2` now has a dependency on
+[prompt-toolkit](https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/python-prompt-toolkit) which serves as a
+pure-Python cross-platform replacement for
+[GNU Readline](https://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/readline/rltop.html). Previously, `cmd2` had used
+different `readline` dependencies on each Operating System (OS) which was at times a very
+frustrating developer and user experience due to small inconsistencies in these different readline
+libraries. Now we have consistent cross-platform support for tab-completion, user terminal input,
+and history. Additionally, this opens up some cool advanced features such as support for syntax
+highlighting of user input while typing, auto-suggestions similar to those provided by the fish
+shell, and the option for a persistent bottom bar that can display realtime status updates while the
+prompt is displayed.
+
+### Details
+
+- Breaking Changes
+    - Removed all use of `readline` built-in module and underlying platform libraries
+    - Deleted `cmd2.rl_utils` module which dealt with importing the proper `readline` module for
+      each platform and provided utility functions related to `readline`
+    - Added a dependency on `prompt-toolkit` and a new `cmd2.pt_utils` module with supporting
+      utilities
+    - Dropped support for Python 3.10. `cmd2` now requires Python 3.11 or later
+    - Removed **Transcript Testing** feature set along with the `history -t` option for generating
+      transcript files and the `cmd2.transcript` module
+        - This was an extremely brittle regression testing framework which should never have been
+          built into cmd2
+        - We recommend using [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/) for unit and integration tests and
+          [Robot Framework](https://robotframework.org/) for acceptance tests. Both of these
+          frameworks can be used to create tests which are far more reliable and less brittle.
+    - Async specific: `prompt-toolkit` starts its own `asyncio` event loop in every `cmd2`
+      application
+        - Removed `cmd2.Cmd.terminal_lock` as it is no longer required to support things like
+          `cmd2.Cmd.async_alert`
+        - Removed `cmd2.Cmd.async_refresh_prompt` and `cmd2.Cmd.need_prompt_refresh` as they are no
+          longer needed
+    - `completer` functions must now return a `cmd2.Completions` object instead of `list[str]`.
+    - `choices_provider` functions must now return a `cmd2.Choices` object instead of `list[str]`.
+    - An argparse argument's `descriptive_headers` field is now called `table_columns`.
+    - `CompletionItem.descriptive_data` is now called `CompletionItem.table_data`.
+    - Removed `DEFAULT_DESCRIPTIVE_HEADERS`. This means you must define `table_columns` when using
+      `CompletionItem.table_data` data.
+    - `Cmd.default_sort_key` moved to `utils.DEFAULT_STR_SORT_KEY`.
+    - Moved completion state data, which previously resided in `Cmd`, into other classes.
+        - `Cmd.matches_sorted` -> `Completions.is_sorted` and `Choices.is_sorted`
+        - `Cmd.completion_hint` -> `Completions.hint`
+        - `Cmd.formatted_completions` -> `Completions.table` (Now a Rich Table)
+        - `Cmd.allow_appended_space/allow_closing_quote` -> `Completions.allow_finalization`
+    - Removed `Cmd.matches_delimited` since it's no longer used.
+    - Removed `flag_based_complete` and `index_based_complete` functions since their functionality
+      is already provided in arpgarse-based completion.
+    - Changed `Statement.multiline_command` from a string to a bool.
+    - Made `Statement.arg_list` a property which generates the list on-demand.
+    - Renamed `Statement.output` to `Statement.redirector`.
+    - Renamed `Statement.output_to` to `Statement.redirect_to`.
+    - Removed `Statement.pipe_to` since it can be handled by `Statement.redirector` and
+      `Statement.redirect_to`.
+    - Changed `StatementParser.parse_command_only()` to return a `PartialStatement` object.
+    - Renamed `Macro.arg_list` to `Macro.args`.
+    - Removed `terminal_utils.py` since `prompt-toolkit` provides this functionality.
+    - Replaced `async_alert()` and `async_update_prompt()` with a single function called
+      `add_alert()`. This new function is thread-safe and does not require you to acquire a mutex
+      before calling it like the previous functions did.
+    - Removed `Cmd.default_to_shell`.
+    - Removed `Cmd.ruler` since `cmd2` no longer uses it.
+    - All parsers used with `cmd2` commands must be an instance of `Cmd2ArgumentParser` or a child
+      class of it.
+    - Renamed `set_default_argument_parser_type()` to `set_default_argument_parser()`.
+    - Renamed `set_default_ap_completer_type()` to `set_default_argparse_completer()`.
+    - Removed `set_ap_completer_type()` and `get_ap_completer_type()` since `completer_class` is now
+      a public member of `Cmd2ArgumentParser`.
+    - Moved `set_parser_prog()` to `Cmd2ArgumentParser.update_prog()`.
+    - Renamed `cmd2_handler` to `cmd2_subcommand_func` in the `argparse.Namespace` for clarity.
+    - Removed `Cmd2AttributeWrapper` class. `argparse.Namespace` objects passed to command functions
+      now contain direct attributes for `cmd2_statement` and `cmd2_subcommand_func`.
+    - Renamed `cmd2/command_definition.py` to `cmd2/command_set.py`.
+    - Removed `Cmd.doc_header` and the `with_default_category` decorator. Help categorization is now
+      driven by the `DEFAULT_CATEGORY` class variable (see **Simplified command categorization** in
+      the Enhancements section below for details).
+    - Removed `Cmd.undoc_header` since all commands are now considered categorized.
+    - Renamed `Cmd.cmd_func()` to `Cmd.get_command_func()`.
+    - `cmd2` no longer sets a default title for a subparsers group. If you desire a title, you will
+      need to pass one in like this `parser.add_subparsers(title="subcommands")`. This is standard
+      `argparse` behavior.
+    - `TextGroup` now implements `HelpFormatterRenderable` (see Enhancements section below for more
+      details).
+        - Removed `formatter_creator` parameter from `TextGroup.__init__()`.
+        - Removed `Cmd2ArgumentParser.create_text_group()` method.
+    - `argparse` and `Rich` integration refactoring:
+        - Renamed `argparse_custom` module to `argparse_utils`.
+        - Moved the following classes from `argparse_utils` to `rich_utils`:
+            - `Cmd2HelpFormatter`
+            - `ArgumentDefaultsCmd2HelpFormatter`
+            - `MetavarTypeCmd2HelpFormatter`
+            - `RawDescriptionCmd2HelpFormatter`
+            - `RawTextCmd2HelpFormatter`
+            - `TextGroup`
+        - Replaced the global `APP_THEME` constant in `rich_utils.py` with `get_theme()`,
+          `reset_theme()`, and `update_theme()` functions in `theme.py` to support lazy
+          initialization and safer in-place updates of the theme.
+    - Renamed `Cmd._command_parsers` to `Cmd.command_parsers`.
+    - Removed `RichPrintKwargs` `TypedDict` in favor of using `Mapping[str, Any]`, allowing for
+      greater flexibility in passing keyword arguments to `console.print()` calls.
+    - Removed `always_show_hint` settable as it provided a poor user experience with
+      `prompt-toolkit`
+    - `cmd2` redirection only captures output directed to `self.stdout` (e.g., via
+      `self.poutput()`). Standard `print()` calls write directly to `sys.stdout` and are not
+      captured. However, `print()` calls within `pyscripts` and the interactive Python shell are
+      treated as command output and sent to `self.stdout`, allowing them to be captured.
+    - Verbose help table descriptions are no longer generated from help function output. The system
+      now relies exclusively on command function docstrings.
+    - Removed `feedback_to_output` settable and changed `cmd2.Cmd.pfeedback` to always print to
+      `self.stdout`
+    - Removed `Cmd.parseline()` since it was unused and merely wrapped
+      `StatementParser.parse_command_only()`.
+- Enhancements
+    - New `cmd2.Cmd` parameters
+        - **auto_suggest**: (boolean) if `True`, provide fish shell style auto-suggestions. These
+          are grayed-out hints based on history. User can press right-arrow key to accept the
+          provided suggestion.
+        - **bottom toolbar**: (boolean) if `True`, present a persistent bottom toolbar capable of
+          displaying realtime status information while the prompt is displayed, see the
+          `cmd2.Cmd2.get_bottom_toolbar` method that can be overridden as well as the updated
+          `getting_started.py` example
+    - New `cmd2.Cmd` methods
+        - **get_bottom_toolbar**: populates bottom toolbar if `bottom_toolbar` is `True`
+        - **get_rprompt**: override to populate right prompt
+        - **pre_prompt**: hook method that is called before the prompt is displayed, but after
+          `prompt-toolkit` event loop has started
+        - **read_secret**: read secrets like passwords without displaying them to the terminal
+        - **ppretty**: a cmd2-compatible replacement for `rich.pretty.pprint()`
+    - New settables:
+        - **max_column_completion_results**: (int) Maximum number of completion results to display
+          in a single column
+        - **traceback_show_locals**: (bool) Display local variables in tracebacks
+    - `cmd2.Cmd.select` has been revamped to use the
+      [choice](https://python-prompt-toolkit.readthedocs.io/en/3.0.52/pages/asking_for_a_choice.html)
+      function from `prompt-toolkit` when both **stdin** and **stdout** are TTYs
+    - Add support for Python 3.15 by fixing various bugs related to internal `argparse` changes
+    - Added `common_prefix` method to `cmd2.string_utils` module as a replacement for
+      `os.path.commonprefix` since that is now deprecated in Python 3.15
+    - Simplified command categorization:
+        - By default, all commands in a class are grouped under its `DEFAULT_CATEGORY`.
+        - Individual commands can still be manually moved using the `with_category()` decorator.
+        - For more details and examples, see the [Help](docs/features/help.md) documentation and the
+          `examples/default_categories.py` file.
+    - `CommandSet` is now a generic class, which allows developers to parameterize it with their
+      specific `cmd2.Cmd` subclass (e.g.,`class MyCommandSet(CommandSet[MyApp]):`). This provides
+      full type hints and IDE autocompletion for `self._cmd` without needing to override and cast
+      the property.
+    - Added `traceback_kwargs` attribute to allow customization of Rich-based tracebacks.
+    - Added `HelpFormatterRenderable` protocol and `HelpContent` type alias to support context-aware
+      help content in `argparse`.
+    - The `print()` function available in a `pyscript` writes to `self.stdout` and respects the
+      `allow_style` setting. It also supports printing `Rich` objects.
+    - Added `Cmd2ArgumentParser.output_to()` context manager to temporarily set the output stream
+      during `argparse` operations. This is helpful for directing output for functions like
+      `parse_args()`, which default to `sys.stdout` and lack a `file` argument.
+    - Added ability to customize `prompt-toolkit` completion menu colors by overriding the following
+      fields in the `cmd2` theme:
+        - `Cmd2Style.COMPLETION_MENU` - Base style for the entire completion menu container (sets
+          the background)
+        - `Cmd2Style.COMPLETION_MENU_COMPLETION` -Style for an individual, non-selected completion
+          item
+        - `Cmd2Style.COMPLETION_MENU_CURRENT` - Style for the currently selected completion item
+        - `Cmd2Style.COMPLETION_MENU_META` - Style for "meta" information shown alongside a
+          completion
+        - `Cmd2Style.COMPLETION_MENU_META_CURRENT`- Style for meta info of current item
+    - Updated `set` command to consolidate its confirmation output into a single, colorized line.
+      The confirmation now uses `pfeedback()`, allowing it to be silenced when the `quiet` settable
+      is enabled.
+    - `alias` and `macro` subcommands for `create` and `delete` now output their non-essential
+      success case output using `pfeedback`
+- Experimental features
+    - New `@with_annotated` decorator, a type-hint-driven alternative to `@with_argparse` that
+      builds the parser automatically from a command's signature (positional/option inference,
+      enum/literal/path/collection handling, subcommands, groups, mutex). See the
+      [annotated_example.py](https://github.com/python-cmd2/cmd2/blob/main/examples/annotated_example.py)
+      example for demonstration of usage.
+        - This feature allows declaring `cmd2` command parameters using type hints using syntax
+          essentially identical to that used by [Typer](https://typer.tiangolo.com/)
+        - You use declarative syntax to define the arguments a command takes and the
+          `@with_annotated` decorator builds an `argparse` parser for you
