Hi, I have just uploaded luatex 0.40.0 to the foundry server, and will commit the source code to texlive later today. What's new: * The embedded MPlib is updated to version 1.200. * Texlua would crash if run font.read_tfm() was used. * Luatex would crash on empty \patterns. * Lots of small C code cleanups. * \textdir inside a \hbox dir *** was wrong earlier. * 0.39.0 introduced a bug that would make luatex crash whenever font expansion was used. * Font tables returned by define_font can now have a key named 'cache' that controls the internal lua font table caching. * There is no longer a need for an explicit --progname if there is no input file given. The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual: http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/luatex/ You could also check out the sources via anonymous svn: svn co svn://scm.foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.40.0 Bugs and feature requests can be added to the issue tracker at http://tracker.luatex.org Have fun, Taco
