(Public domain.) - - -2021 (for TeX Live 2021) -* Knuth 2021 tune-up, with fixes to all of his *.web files. Overview: -https://tug.org/TUGboat/42-1/tb130knuth-tuneup21.pdf -New TeX version is 3.141592653, MF 2.71828182. - -* for all engines except original TeX: -- if \tracinglostchars >= 3, make missing characters an error (not just - a log message), and always report the character code in hex. -- if new primitive parameter \tracingstacklevels > 0, logging of macro - expansion at higher levels is truncated; also, the macro expansion - depth is indicated on \tracingmacros log lines. - -* obscure interaction sequences no longer crash. - - -2020 (for TeX Live 2020, 27 March 2020) -* \input now also accepts a group-delimited filename, e.g., -\input{foo.tex}. The usage with a standard space/token-delimited -filename is completely unchanged. - -The group-delimited name was previously implemented in LuaTeX; now it is -available in all engines. ASCII double quote characters (") are removed -from the filename, but it is otherwise left unchanged after -tokenization. This does not currently impact LaTeX's \input command, as -that is a macro redefinition of the standard \input primitive. - -* New cross-engine option -cnf-line=STR. - -* All TeX engines except tex and etex now compress (with zlib) .fmt files - (XeTeX and LuaTeX already did so). - -pTeX (and all variants): new primitives \ifjfont and \iftfont. -eptex, euptex: new primitives \Uchar, \Ucharcat, \current(x)spacingmode, - \ifincsname; revise \fontchar?? and \iffontchar. -euptex only: new primitive \currentcjktoken. - -BibTeX: now reallocates on large (>20k) field values instead of aborting. - - -2019 (for TeX Live 2019, 7 April 2019) -BibTeX: subsidiary .aux files are looked for in the directory of the -main .aux file, if not found as-is (to work better with -output-directory). - -CWEB: now comes from the CWEBbin package -(https://github.com/ascherer/cwebbin), with translation capabilities, -more language support, and more. - - -2018 (for TeX Live 2018, 14 April 2018) -* Directories in the -output-directory do not mask files by the same name. - -2017 (for TeX Live 2017, 19 May 2017) -2016 (for TeX Live 2016, 21 May 2016) -2015 (for TeX Live 2015, 21 May 2015) -2014 (for TeX Live 2014, 24 May 2014) -2013 (for TeX Live 2013, 30 May 2013) -* Doc changes and bug fixes. - -2012 (for TeX Live 2012, 1 July 2012) -* upTeX and e-upTeX Japanese engines added. - -2011 (for TeX Live 2011, 5 July 2011) -* epTeX Japanese engine added. - -2010 (for TeX Live 2010, 4 June 2010) -* BibTeX line-breaking bug fix in bibtex.web. -* pTeX Japanese engine added. - -2009 (for TeX Live 2009, 13 October 2009) -* --shell-restricted aka shell_escape=p for restricted shell access. -* --enable-write18 and --disable-write18 accepted as synonyms for - --shell-escape and --no-shell-escape, for compatibility with MiKTeX. -* Omega removed; use Aleph. -* Build system now automake-based. - -7.5.7 (for TeX Live 2008, 7 July 2008) -* Include Knuth's 2008 updates. -* Include LuaTeX. -* Include SyncTeX. -* Plenty of pdfTeX and MetaPost updates. -* Pool strings now compiled into the binaries instead of .pool files. -* autoconf support finally modernized. - -7.5.6 (for TeX Live 2006-07, 30 December 2006) -* Include XeTeX. -* pdfTeX and MetaPost updates. - -7.5.5 (26 June 2005) -* BibTeX: dynamically resize the buffer (and related arrays). -* MP: Version 0.9 -* mpware: Brought to the equivalent of version 0.9. -* e-TeX, Aleph, pdfeTeX: You can use -ini -etex to start etex mode now - instead of prepending an asterisk. - -7.5.4 (6 February 2005) -* TeX: \ifeof18 is false if \write18 is enabled. -* MF, MP: Prevent pathological code from overflowing the "serial number" - counter for independent variables. - -7.5.3 (28 November 2004) -* ctie: New program, from Julian Gilbey. -* TeX, MF, MP: We now save the name of the engine in the dump, in - order to be able to give better error messages in case a dump - written by another engine is being read. -* TeX, MF, MP: We now dump the xord, xchr, and xprn arrays, so if - if a TCX file was loaded in INI mode, that will be retained - when the dump is loaded. (Doesn't apply to Omega family.) -* TeX, MF, MP: Add -8bit option, which makes all characters - printable by default. Note that a TCX file can change this. - (Doesn't apply to Omega family.) -* TeX, MF, MP: In TCX files, a third number (0 or 1) can be - used to set printability. (Doesn't apply to Omega family.) -* TeX: Include encTeX extension. -* mft: Allow more than one -style option. -* pdfxTeX: New. -* DVItoMP: Now supports color specials, like those added by the - colordvi package. Note that this feature should be considered - experimental, and may change in the future. -* PATGEN: Peter Breitenlohner fixed some typos in text in patgen.web. - -7.5.2 (19 February 2003) -* e-TeX: Remove last bits of support for installing it as 'tex'. -* Makefile fixes. - -7.5.1 (17 February 2003) -* New upstream sources from Knuth. -* Lots of little fixes to the new makefiles. - -7.5.0 (15 February 2003) -* Use libtool. -* Use e-TeX, pdfeTeX as the engine for the latex, pdflatex format. - -7.4.6 (7 February 2003) -* Makefile structure changed. -* e-Omega: New - -7.4.5 (28 January 2003) -* TeX: Obey locale setting only for terminal and log file. -* METAFONT, MetaPost: Do not care about locale settings at all. - -7.4.4 (16 January 2003) -* TeX: Increase maximum size of max_strings, main_memory, and pool_size. - -7.4.3 (11 January 2003) -* CWEB: Add --help and --version options. -* CWEB: Support both .w and and .web suffixes. -* CWEB: When adding #line directives, put in the path, not just the filename. - -7.4.2 (23 December 2002) -* Minor fixes to makefiles. - -7.4.1 (20 December 2002) -* cweave: Fixed hangs caused by wrong argument order in two prototypes. - -7.4.0 (14 December 2002) -* Using 7.4.x numbers now because the interface of kpathsea has changed in - ABI-incompatible ways. -* share/*: Stop shipping fontmap files and tcx files in the web2c tarball. -* CWEB: Add protypes to code through the change files. -* BibTeX: Names ending in 'aux' were not handled correctly. -* METAPost: Handle date and time privitives correctly, instead of having - them give the date of the mem file. - -7.3.11 (13 November 2002) -* BibTeX: purify$ would strip characters with code >= 128 from its argument. - This has now changed to just passing them through. This should have no - effect if you don't use such characters in the input, but may result in - different output otherwise. Note that other aspects, like proper sorting - of such characters are not handled at all. -* CWEB: Increase the maximum length of the names of the input files. - -7.3.10 (11 November 2002) -* Added the CWEB programs. Thanks to Wlodek Bzyl. - -7.3.9 (22 October 2002) -* TeX, METAFONT, METAPost: Add --jobname option to set the jobname. This - supercedes the use of --fmt, --efmt, --mem, and --base to set the name of - the format to be dumped in ini mode. -* TANGLE: New options --length, --lowercase, --uppercase, --mixedcase, - --underline, --strict, --loose. These affect the output generated by - tangle. - -7.3.8 (11 October 2002) -* BibTeX: do not split \% in an output line. -* TeX: mention active extensions. -* TeX: change name/banner if extensions that break strict compatibility with - Knuth's TeX are active. -* web2c: splitup now uses a command-line switch to determine how after - how many lines it should split the sources. - -7.3.7 (27 November 2001) -* Minor release, again incorporates internal changes to help Omega. -* Update of the fontmaps. - -7.3.6 (18 November 2001) -* Minor release, again incorporates internal changes to help Omega. -* TeX, METAFONT, MetaPost: - New option --recorder which enables a filename recorder. A file - with extension .fls is created which contains the names of the - files opened for reading or writing. - -7.3.5 (10 November 2001) -* Minor release, incorporate many changes due to developments of Omega. - These are mainly internal. - -7.3.4 (30 October 2001) -* Minor release, incorporates most of the features also in TeX-live 6, - which is known as release 7.3.3.1. -* TANGLE: As an extension, you can define parametric macros where '[' and ']' - delimit the argument. -* MFT: Support METAPOST sources. -* MPTO: Add -tex=program option. Buffer is now configurable. - -7.3.3 (5 August 2000) -* Minor release. -* METAFONT: Obey buf_size from texmf.cnf instead of using a hard-coded value. - -7.3.2 (19 April 2000) -* Minor release containing bugfixes for 7.3.1. Web2C 7.3.1 was not released - on CTAN, only in teTeX 1.0 -* The TeX-live 5 CD contains Web2C 7.3.1x, which is based on the 7.3.1 release - and contains some changes that have yet to be merged into the main tree. In - particular, the code for "C-style" error messages and the code for source - specials has not been merged yet. - -7.3.1 (30 May 1999) -* Minor release containing bugfixes for 7.3. Web2C 7.3 was not released - on CTAN, only on the TeX-live 4 CD. - -7.3 (26 March 1999) -* New upstream sources from Knuth. -* TeX, METAFONT, MetaPost: - (Re)introduction of TCX files. -* Increased capacity of several programs. -* Support for pdfeTeX added. -* Long-standing bugs in VFtoPL and TFtoPL, which led to corrupted TFM - files being generated, have been fixed. - -7.2 (15 March 1998) -* New upstream version of MetaPost: 0.64. -* TeX, METAFONT, MetaPost: - Allow for more restrictions on the files written by \openout. -* TeX, METAFONT, MetaPost: - New option --interaction, which can be used to set batchmode, nonstopmode, - scrollmode, or errorstopmode. Thus we can replace a construct like - tex '\batchmode \input foo' - with - tex --interaction=batchmode foo - and have a %&format line select the correct format. -* When %&format selects a format, the search paths are changed to conform - to that format. -* TeX, METAFONT, MetaPost: - During an "ini" run, the name of the format to be dumped can be set with - the --fmt/--efmt/--base/--mem options. -* web2c: Extensive support for building e-TeX, Omega, a PDFTeX. -* web2c: The manual pages are back. - -7.1 (10 November 1997) -* Some MSDOS/Win32 support added to the sources. -* BibTeX: increased capacity. -* VPtoVF: Increased capacity. -* TeX, METAFONT, MetaPost: - - File foo.bar.tex results in \jobname foo.bar, hence foo.bar.{log,dvi,...}. - This as opposed to foo and foo.{log,dvi,...} which it how it used to be in - version 6. In 7.0 situation was confusing, as the heuristics used would - sometimes result in the extension being stripped, sometimes not. -* TeX: - - The -extend-jobname option has been removed. - - Printing of non-ASCII characters in diagnostics, code by Bernd Raichle. - - All three of LF, CR, and CRLF are recognized end-of-line tokens. -* web2c: - - Some support for e-TeX added to convert. - -7.0 (6 February 1997) -* Update from Knuth for tex, mf, dvitype, pltotf, vptovf, and tangle, - John Hobby's MetaPost (and support programs) included, - update from P. Breitenlohner to dvicopy 1.5 and patgen 2.3. -* Update for kpathsea 3.0. -* Texinfo manual written. -* Amiga, OS/2, Windows NT support in the sources. -* TeX: - - if -shell-escape or shell_escape in texmf.cnf is enabled, - \write18{str} passes str to system(3) for processing by sh. - - MLTeX extensions (\charsubdef, etc.) can be enabled at runtime. - - Many array sizes can be set dynamically, in texmf.cnf. - - MakeTeXTFM installed and enabled by default. - - IPC communications to an external program for incremental DVI reading. - - texfonts.map applies to TFM files, as originally intended. - - More than 256 fonts are allowed. - - DVI comment (with timestamp) can be overridden. - - tex.web's consistency checks on .fmt files restored. -* Metafont: - - A few array sizes can be set dynamically, in texmf.cnf. - - X11 support disabled by default; configure --with-x to enable it. - - MakeTeXMF enabled and installed by default. -* TeX, Metafont, MetaPost: - - If the first line of the main input file starts with %&, the rest of - the line is used as the fmt/base/mem file (if it can be found), - except that %&ini means initex/inimf/inimpost. - - One binary: initex/mf/mpost capabilities merged with virtex/mf/mpost. - - New option -progname sets program name independently of argv[0]. - - Eight-bit filenames are output correctly in ^^ notation, instead of - always being simplified to ^^@. - - MakeTeX* scripts can be named and disabled via texmf.cnf. - - MakeTeX* scripts are silent if \batchmode is in effect. - - TEXMFINI environment variable checked for pool/fmt/base/mem lookups. - - \openout (TeX) and write (MP) by default will not write to files - whose names start with `.'. - - ``Small'' versions no longer supported without source hacking. - - Length bug regarding single non-ASCII characters in MF and MP fixed. -* BibTeX: - - Some arrays dynamically reallocated as needed, other sizes increased. - - Default behavior is verbose; new -terse option changes that. - - Statistics are written to the .blg file. - - Does not look at TEXINPUTS to find .bst files, but does check - TEXBIB (after BIBINPUTS). - - Does not interactively ask for the top-level .aux name. -* All programs: - - Supply default extensions and default output files. - - Support the standard --help and --version options. - - Filenames not arbitrarily restricted in length. - - Output written in the current directory, not the directory of - an input file. (Most interesting for tangle.) - - Times-Roman etc. work as font names, via texfonts.map and subsidiaries. -* dvitype prints decimal opcode numbers with --show-opcodes. -* bibtex and gftodvi never interactively ask for filenames; - dvitype and dvicopy do not enter interactive dialogues. -* mft looks in MFTINPUTS, not TEXINPUTS. -* Configuration: - - Optional features are enabled via configure --with-* and --enable-* - options. Run configure --help. - - There is no small TeX, Metafont, or MetaPost. If you want it, you'll - have to change the change files, #define SMALL* yourself, and do - whatever else is necessary yourself. -* Source hierarchy substantially simplified. -* Web2c: - - Support for ifndef...endifn, a la ifdef. - - Support for const expressions. - - Can generate ANSI code. - -Version 6.1 (3 February 1994) -* foo.bar found before foo.tex (found before foo). -* configure links sun.c to sun-sunview.c if SUNWIN is defined. -* -DLONG_64_BITS is supplied automatically (if appropriate). -* Various changes for configure --srcdir. -* Sample MakeTeX* scripts included. - -Version 6.0 (24 January 1994) -* Default paths changed. -* Update for TeX 3.1415, etc. -* Change to use the kpathsea library, a la dvipsk and xdvik. - -* TeX's \openin command invokes MakeTeXTeX just like \input. - -* TeX & Metafont: - - 16-byte values can be dumped, thus allowing native `long' on the DEC Alpha. - - But 32-bit integers are used if sharable format files are desired, - even on 64-bit machines. - - Interrupts are accepted when waiting for input. - -* Online output support in Metafont for Regis terminals and the NeXT. -* gftopk can handle characters with up to 100,000 rows. -* vftovp's -charcode-format=ascii works properly. -* patgen doesn't give bizarre numeric output where it should be text. - -* configuration: - - -lX11 is used for OpenWindows. - - The MakeTeX... scripts are individually selectable by default, and - can always be invoked if certain environment variables are set. - - The subdirectory trick using st_nlink can be turned off. - -* Makefiles: - - man/Makefile doesn't remove itself at `clean'. - - {tex,mf}/clean-tr[ia]p doesn't reinstall a {tex,mf}d.h with the test - constants. - - web2c/Makefile removes lex and yacc output at `clean'. - - mkdirchain invoked as an absolute filename. - -* web2c: - - sync is no longer invoked; instead the Makefiles touch texd.h and - mfd.h after they are finished. - -Version 5.851d (22 February 1993) - -* A file `texfonts.map' allows arbitrary mapping of font names (as given - to, for instance, \font) to filenames. - -* Metafont & TeX: - - If a .tex, .tfm, or .mf file can't be found, MakeTeX{TeX,TFM,MF} is - invoked before giving up, as in dvips' MakeTeXPK. - - Sharable format/base files load faster on LittleEndian machines. - - TEXMFOUTPUT is only used for those files which can't be written in - the current directory, instead of all files after the first such. - Its usage is also reflected in the `... written on ...' messages at - the end of the run. - - If the DISPLAY environment variable is set, Metafont assumes you are - running under X11 for the purposes of online output (instead of - relying on the TERM or MFTERM envvar). - - Checks for write errors on DVI/GF output. - - Unusual glue values no longer make TeX dump core on some systems. - -* BibTeX: - - The cross-reference feature works as documented (I had foolishly - changed the default value of min_crossrefs to eliminate it). - - New option -min-crossrefs=<number> to change it dynamically. - - New option -verbose; without it, normal reportage is eliminated. - - Maximum number of .bib files increased to 100. - - Non-printable-ASCII characters in .bib files are preserved. - -* TeXware: - - tftopl adds a default extension `.tfm' to the input file if necessary. - -* web2c: - - Unsigned types are used where possible to represent Pascal - subranges. Among other things, this eliminates a system dependency - in creating format/base files (small_number was defined as `schar', - which varies between systems). - -* configuration: - - Unpacks into web2c-<version> instead of src-<version>.*. - - site.h merged into lib/c-auto.h.in and ./Makefile.in. - - sed is used instead of patch to make the ``small'' change files. - - sed is used instead of ed to make the trip/trap files. - - The configure script looks in more directories for the X libraries - and include files, and is generated from the latest version of Autoconf. - - mfware and texware directories merged into the others. - - The web2c version is defined in one place, so system information can - be added to the banners more easily. - -* Makefiles: - - Makefiles in subdirectories are created by configure. - - $(srcdir) (i.e., compiling in a different directory) is closer to working. - - Stamp files are not used at the top level, or for {tex,mf}/convert. - - New targets install-data and install-exec, to only install - architecture-(in)dependent files. - -* PROBLEMS.W2C has some notes on compiling and using these programs - under DOS, contributed by melvin@math.psu.edu. - -* The man pages have been significantly updated and improved by - beebe@math.utah.edu. - -* The original web files haven't changed. - -Release 4.893b: -* Include patches from Tim to web2c to turn off the verbose output, - unless -d is supplied to web2c. -* Change $(AR) in the MFwindow Makefile to `ar'. -* Try to get the base file from the program name in Metafont, as well in - TeX. Implication: mf.script and tex.script are no longer supplied, - since a link to plain.{base,fmt} named {mf,tex}.{base,fmt} suffices. - `make install' doesn't create these links, since they only need to be - done once. -* Move some stuff from site.h that should never be changed to a new - file, defaults.h. Add a new definition, SIGNAL_HANDLER_RETURN_TYPE, to - site.h, to get rid of the warnings in {tex,mf}/extra.c. -* Use a sed script, contributed by eggert@twinsun.com, instead of the - awk script, at the beginning of the pipeline. -* Fix an unsigned comparison problem in pltotf, that made cc produce - infinite ligature loops when converting trip.pl. -* Change threshold in Metafont, and f in tftopl, so broken C compilers - (like some versions of pcc) don't get confused. -* Port vftovp and vptovf. Move pktogf and pktype to fontutil. -* Allow more than 500 kern pairs in pltotf. -* Change the first parameter to {mf,extra}/extra.c to *filename from - filename[]. -* Use a better hack for the mutually recursive procedures in pltotf et al., - from Tor Lillqvist <tml@hemuli.atk.vtt.fi>. - -Release 2.993+1.9 = 4.893a: -Sebastian contributed the updates to ctex.ch, tftopl.ch, and pltotf.ch. -Karl did the cmf.ch update. - -Release 3.0: -Brings everything up to the new 8-bit versions. -Almost every file has changed at least somewhat, so I'm not going to -list all the changes. Here are some highlights: -* char is now 0..255 instead of 0..127 in *.defines. -* `packed' is no longer ignored as part of an identifier (e.g., `packed_trie'). -* new Makefiles to make it easier to do the trip/trap test, and with all - the support programs integrated. -* ctex.ch has a hack to get around trie_op_hash being an array with a - negative lower bound. -* pltotf.ch has a hack to get around mutually recursive routines. |
