+T1utils NEWS
+
+Version 1.39 26.Feb.2015
+
+* t1disasm: Security fixes for buffer overrun reported by Jakub Wilk
+ and Niels Thykier.
+
+
+Version 1.38 29.Sep.2013
+
+* t1disasm: Fix an infinite loop on some fonts reported by Niels
+ Thykier.
+
+
+Version 1.37 29.Jun.2011
+
+* t1asm: Use a dynamically allocated buffer to handle huge characters
+ (reported by Werner Lemberg).
+
+
+Version 1.36 29.May.2010
+
+* Several minor cleanups.
+
+
+Version 1.35 22.Oct.2009
+
+* Don't use "getline" as a symbol (reported by Karl Berry and
+ C.M. Connelly).
+
+
+Version 1.34 1.Mar.2008
+
+* Add '--enable-multiplatform' (requested by Karl Berry).
+
+
+Version 1.33 8.Jan.2008
+
+* Several minor cleanups.
+
+
+Version 1.32 23.Feb.2004
+
+* t1disasm: Avoid memory corruption bug (strings passed to eexec_line are
+ not null terminated). Reported by Werner Lemberg.
+
+
+Version 1.31 8.Feb.2004
+
+* All: Support fonts where the eexec-encrypted portion is binary, and the
+ first ciphertext byte is 0. Reported by Werner Lemberg.
+
+
+Version 1.30 6.Jan.2004
+
+* All: Support fonts, such as those in PostScript files printed by
+ acroread, where "currentfile eexec" is not followed by a newline.
+
+
+Version 1.29 6.Oct.2003
+
+* t1disasm: Support odd fonts where a character is defined on the
+ "/CharStrings" line. Reported by Werner Lemberg.
+
+
+Version 1.28 7.Aug.2003
+
+* Address build problems reported by Nelson H.F. Beebe.
+
+
+Version 1.27 26.Mar.2003
+
+* t1ascii: Add optional warning when output lines are longer than 255
+ characters. Requested by Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>.
+
+
+Version 1.26 16.Apr.2002
+
+* t1mac: Fix buglet (C++ comment, and temporary file left behind). Reported
+ by Vladimir Volovich <vvv@vsu.ru>.
+
+
+Version 1.25 3.Jan.2002
+
+* t1asm: Beware extra characters after `currentfile closefile'. Reported by
+ Luc Devroye <luc@cs.mcgill.ca>.
+
+
+Version 1.24 6.Sep.2001
+
+* Fixed compilation bugs on various platforms reported by Nelson H. F.
+ Beebe <beebe@math.utah.edu>.
+
+
+Version 1.23 18.Jun.2001
+
+* Fixed Macintosh file bugs: the MacBinary CRC was calculated incorrectly,
+ and extended finder flags were set to random values in BinHex output.
+ Reported, and patch provided, by Tom Kacvinsky <tjk@ams.org>.
+
+
+Version 1.22 6.Mar.2001
+
+* Fixed bug on processing PFA fonts with DOS line endings. The symptom was
+ t1binary producing strange/unusable fonts. Problem: the all-zeros line,
+ which signals the end of the font's binary section, was not being
+ recognized because of an extra '\r'. This has been a bug since version
+ 1.13 -- chagrin! Problem reported by Han The Thanh
+ <thanh@informatics.muni.cz>.
+
+
+Version 1.21 9.Feb.2001
+
+* t1ascii, t1asm, t1unmac: Raised minimum PFA line length to 8. The Adobe
+ spec may imply that there cannot be whitespace within the first 8 bytes
+ of an ASCII-encoded eexec section; it's somewhat ambiguous. Reported by
+ Rainer Menzner <Rainer.Menzner@neuroinformatik.ruhr-uni-bochum.de>.
+
+
+Version 1.20 22.Jun.2000
+
+* t1asm: Fixed bug where `t1asm -a' would give a `warning: line length
+ raised to 4' error message. Reported by Tom Kacvinsky <tjk@ams.org>.
+
+
+Version 1.19 3.May.2000
+
+* t1mac: Generated Macintosh fonts now use a custom-drawn icon set, rather
+ than Adobe's default. They also have a t1utils-specific creator signature
+ (T1UT), and their file information mentions t1utils.
+
+* t1mac: Added the `--filename' option.
+
+
+Version 1.18 2.May.2000
+
+* t1mac: Fixed bug where generated files appeared corrupted to Macintoshes.
+ Reported by Marten Thavenius <marten.thavenius@bahnhof.se>.
+
+
+Version 1.17 27.Apr.2000
+
+* Added new program, `t1mac', which translates PFA or PFB fonts into
+ Macintosh-style fonts. T1mac can output in MacBinary, AppleSingle,
+ AppleDouble, or BinHex format. Suggested by Marten Thavenius
+ <marten.thavenius@bahnhof.se>.
+
+* t1unmac: Added support for BinHex.
+
+* t1unmac: Fixed bugs in manual page and program options.
+
+
+Version 1.16 25.Apr.2000
+
+* t1unmac: Supports AppleSingle and AppleDouble files with the
+ `--applesingle/double' option. Requested by Kent Boortz
+ <kent@erix.ericsson.se>.
+
+
+Version 1.15 4.Apr.2000
+
+* t1ascii, t1binary, and t1disasm: Fixed bad error message.
+
+* t1unmac: Generates PFB fonts by default.
+
+
+Version 1.14 25.Aug.1999
+
+* t1asm: Version 1.13 produced complete crap output. My test cases were too
+ limited to catch this. Found by Rainer Menzner
+ <Rainer.Menzner@neuroinformatik.ruhr-uni-bochum.de>.
+
+
+Version 1.13 2.Aug.1999
+
+* t1disasm: Complete rewrite. It now uses t1lib.c functions; the goal is to
+ handle PFA and PFB fonts consistently. This has been extensively tested,
+ but there may be bugs.
+
+* t1disasm, t1asm: Fixed to support fonts with multiple Subrs and
+ CharStrings sections, like some old Oblique fonts.
+
+* PFA minimum line length raised to 4.
+
+* t1ascii, t1binary, t1disasm: Changes in t1lib.c to support reading binary
+ PFA fonts. Requested by Tom Kacvinsky <tjk@ams.org>.
+
+
+Version 1.12 1.Aug.1999
+
+* t1ascii, t1binary, t1asm, t1disasm: Support fonts with whitespace
+ following the "currentfile eexec" line. Embedded fonts in PostScript
+ generated by Acrobat Reader have this property. Reported by Tom Kacvinsky
+ <tjk@ams.org>.
+
+* t1ascii, t1asm, t1unmac: Use lowercase hex digits instead of uppercase.
+
+* t1unmac: Added `--line-length' option for PFA output.
+
+
+Version 1.11 29.May.1999
+
+* Bug fix in t1asm/t1disasm: if a `readhexstring' procedure was defined, we
+ got confused. Reported by Luc Devroye <luc@CS.McGill.CA>.
+
+* t1binary now has a maximum block length of 2^32 - 1. "Feature" requested
+ by Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>.
+
+* t1ascii and t1binary each accept both PFA and PFB fonts. If you pass an
+ ASCII font (PFA) to t1ascii, it will output it mostly unchanged, and
+ similarly for PFB fonts and t1binary. The `-l' options will still take
+ effect, so you can use `t1ascii -l 60' to shorten the encrypted line
+ lengths of a PFA font. t1ascii also does some newline translation
+ (changes carriage returns to newlines).
+
+
+Version 1.10.1 12.Apr.1999
+
+* t1asm: Fixed bug when `-l' option wasn't provided. Caught by Giuseppe
+ Ghibò <ghibo@caesar.polito.it>.
+
+
+Version 1.10 11.Apr.1999
+
+* t1asm/t1disasm: Provide support for Type1C (Compact Font Format) font
+ files. These fonts have unencrypted character strings, signalled by a
+ negative lenIV value. Suggestion and patch thanks to Tom Kacvinsky
+ <tjk@ams.org>.
+
+* t1ascii/t1asm: Added `-l/--line-length' option to control maximum
+ encrypted line length. Suggestion thanks to Giuseppe Ghibò
+ <ghibo@caesar.polito.it>.
+
+
+Version 1.9 14.Feb.1999
+
+* t1asm/t1disasm: Be more robust on fonts that don't end in `mark
+ currentfile closefile'. John Vromans <JVromans@squirrel.nl> provided a
+ font that ended with `mark' on one line and `currentfile closefile' on
+ another; t1asm and t1disasm did not recognize the encrypted section of
+ the font had ended, and generated some garbage.
+
+
+Version 1.8 2.Jan.1999
+
+* Added some more Type 2 commands (flex, flex1, hflex, hflex1) from a
+ revision of the Type 2 spec. (I wouldn't have known about this except for
+ CurveSoft's revised t1utils package, available at
+ http://www.curvesoft.com. These t1utils are more up-to-date than theirs,
+ however.)
+
+* t1asm: Fixed one Type 2 command's translation (cntrmask was incorrectly
+ mapped to 18, not 20).
+
+
+Version 1.7.2 11.Dec.1998
+
+* Integrated patches from Jan-Jaap van der Heijden
+ <J.J.vanderHeijden@student.utwente.nl> to support building t1utils under
+ 32-bit Windows.
+
+
+Version 1.7.1 5.Dec.1998
+
+* The t1utils package now uses automake.
+
+
+Version 1.7 27.Nov.1998
+
+* t1asm: Should now work with fonts that have no /Subrs sections. Previously,
+ assembling such a font would silently fail; all the character definitions
+ would be mistaken for procedures and t1asm wouldn't translate them. Problem
+ noticed and fix suggested by Tom Kacvinsky <tjk@ams.org>.
+
+* t1disasm: Removed spurious debugging output and improved warning message
+ about unknown charstring commands.
+
+* Changed fgetc/fputc into getc/putc.
+
+
+Version 1.6 27.Sep.1998
+
+* `--help' now prints to stdout, following the GNU Coding Standards.
+
+* Makefiles: Added `make uninstall' target, enabled `./configure's
+ program name transformations, made VPATH builds possible.
+
+
+Version 1.5.2 6.Aug.1998
+
+* t1asm/t1disasm: Changed unknown charstring commands at the request of
+ Werner Lemberg and LEE Chun-Yu. An unknown escape in the charstring, like
+ 12 X, is translated to "escape_X" rather than "UNKNOWN_12_X".
+
+
+Version 1.5.1 31.May.1998
+
+* t1unmac did not actually understand the -r and -b options. Fixed.
+
+* t1unmac: Added better diagnostics to help you diagnose seeking problems.
+
+
+Version 1.5 5.Mar.1998
+
+* Initial release with Eddie Kohler as maintainer.
+
+* All: Updated to the GNU program behavior standards (long options, --help,
+ --version). Banners removed. Added more error messages.
+
+* t1binary: Removed fixed limit on line length.
+
+* t1binary: Supports Macintosh files, whose lines end in `\r'.
+
+* t1binary: Supports an odd number of hex digits in a line.
+
+* t1asm/t1disasm: Added support for Type 2 commands like `blend' and `add',
+ which also appear in some multiple master fonts like Adobe Jenson.
+
+* t1asm/t1disasm: Added support for unknown charstring commands. t1disasm
+ translates an unknown command #X to "UNKNOWN_X", and t1asm does the reverse.
+
+* t1asm/t1unmac: Changed default output to PFB.
+
+* t1unmac: Used to be called `unpost'. `t1unmac' is a much better name.
