This file records user-visible changes.
Version 0.7
* If the X window system is lacking, as much of the distribution as
possible is compiled anyway.
* Imageto looks for TFM widths in an existing TFM file before resorting
to the pixel widths.
Version 0.6 (28 October 1992)
* Imageto changes:
- Automatically removes all pieces of adjacent characters; the
`-clean-threshold' kludge is gone.
- `-info-filename' option renamed to `-ifi-filename'.
- Writes a complete GF font if the image file is incomplete.
- No longer crashes on a filename lacking an extension.
* BZRto changes:
- No longer requires TFM files as input along with the BZR files.
- Doesn't guess that the CCC file is the same as the BZR file.
- Ligature/kern Metafont output doesn't crash on missing characters.
- Metafont output does better at not overflowing MF's memory.
* GSrenderfont changes:
- Handles invisible characters, such as spaces.
- Reads Type 3 PostScript fonts, as well as Type 1.
- No longer requires an output encoding; default is same as input.
- Reads fonts that aren't known to Ghostscript by default.
* Other program changes:
- Limn doesn't try to log uninitialized floating-point numbers.
- All the programs handle fontnames containing `.' better.
- Verbose output usually goes to standard output, instead of standard error.
- Minor installation and configuration fixes.
* Documentation changes:
- The chapter on bug reporting has some further explanation of the
purpose of what we ask for, and clarifications. Please read before
submitting bug reports.
- The chapter on Imageto has been substantially rewritten. I hope the
difficulties people encountered using that program because of
deficiencies in the manual will be cleared up now.
Version 0.5 (3 September 1992)
* Manual written!
* New program `BPLtoBZR' and new Emacs Lisp BZR editing mode bzredit.el.
* BZRto provides for character construction (of, e.g., pre-accented
files) via CCC files.
Can also merge fonts, scaling them all to the same size.
* Charspace reads CMI files instead of SBI files; pretty much the same
idea, but many changes to the syntax, etc.
* Fontconvert can put a space character in its output.
Can do some things via character names, instead of only character codes.
* Imageto uses character names instead of codes, and
can write EPS files.
Version 0.4 (28 Mar 1992)
First public release.
