When the GrepFiltered sub was removed, we didn't check our modules. As
it turns out, tags.pl and mac.pl hooked into this sub to do their job. A
simple no-op Filtered sub was reintroduced for those modules.
Also, all instances of $UseGrep were removed.

This feature was not really useful anyway.
The EN DASH is not really required in year ranges such as 2012–2015 when
we're talking about comments in source code that is probably being
displayed in a fixed font anyway. Changing back to an ordinary hypen
allows us to make a meaningful test for use utf8.
The author's page describes it as follows: "This module is designed to
be used in conjunction with the ClusterMap Module and the Static Hybrid
Module. It alters the code that generates the RecentChanges page so that
links to a Cluster Page are direct links, not action links. This allows
your RecentChanges page to be more useful and use the pre-cached pages,
rather than calling the Oddmuse script."

As nobody seems to be using it, I deleted it.

There was no documentation to be found on the wiki or in the comments of
the module. The module requires various CSS files that aren't part of
the module. That's why I deleted it.
Some more information is here:

It's based on S5 - the Simple Standards-based Slide Show System.

"Basically, it’s a way to create slide shows using nothing more than
XHTML, CSS, and Javascript. In theory, they are compatible across all
compliant browsers, and built from quite small files making the
presentations perfect for web use."
The slide show example is no longer available.
All the translation files will call AddModuleDescription only if it is
defined, allowing us to run the translation files by themselves. A
further change to oddtrans got rid of some "Wide character in print"
warnings. Together, these changes now allow us to calculate how many
translation strings are missing for a given set of modules.
Because of the lack of parenthesis CBC mode was not turned on. This was a
serious security problem. If you were using this module, now you have to
reencrypt the whole wiki. Instructions for doing this will be posted
on [[Private Wiki Extension]] eventually.
$NewText is replaced by a call to NewText() which you can overwrite. Or
you can provide translations for the texts used by NewText(). Basically,
the new text explains that the page in question does not exist and
invites you edit it.
