* Various image handling fixes by Akira Kakuto.
* Fix off-by-one error in display of \every... token registers, thanks to Bruno
Le Floch.
-* The right to left support have been switched from e-TeX's TeX--XeT extension
- to, a slightly modified version of, the original TeX-XeT extension, which
- fixes several issues related to the handling of specials in right to left
- text (colors and hyper links mainly).
-* \TeXXeTstate have been deprecated and does not do anything now, the TeX-XeT
- support is always enabled.
-* XeTeX still reads/updates the \predisplaydirection but the value is otherwise
- ignored. The old functionality can be emulated by macro code, and it might be
- resuscitated in the future.
-* It is now possible to use direction switching primitives inside math mode.
-* The XDV opcodes have been simplified slightly, and support for DVI-IVD opcodes
- (used by TeX-XeT) was added. The DVI id have been bumped to 6 to reflect this.
+* The XDV opcodes have been simplified slightly. The DVI id have been bumped to
+ 6 to reflect this.
* XeTeX now looks for the xdvipdfmx binary installed next to it and no longer
requires that it is installed in the system PATH (this was previously done
only on Windows).
-xdvipdfmx:
-* DVI-IVD opcodes are now supported, as well as XDV 6.
-* Various changes shared with dvipdfmx, check its change log for details.
