Hi, I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.65.0. This release mostly fixes a number of bugs, but it also deprecates a number of existing lua and macro commands. Please read the News section carefully if you are the current maintainer of a luatex macro package. News: * The Aleph and Omega version primitives are deprecated. * The Apple Snow Leopard Truetype font collections now work properly. * Libpng has been updated to 1.4.4, and zlib to 1.2.5. * New lua functions node.next() and node.prev(). * The already deprecated for some time node.protrusion_skipable() function has been removed. * fontloader.apply_featurefile() and fontloader.apply_afmfile() now return nil,<errortable> on failure. * The various node list fields in the lua node interface have been renamed from 'list' to 'head', e.g. tex.box[0].head, and the 'list' name is deprecated. For now, the deprecation is silent, as 'list' will stay for quite some time. Please update your lua source as soon as possible, though. * The call node.type(<node>) now returns "node". The existing functionality is otherwise unchanged. * Luafilesystem has been updated to 1.5.0. NOTE: there is an incompatible change in the directory iterator method. * The restriction on linebreak_filter has been eased: at least one horizontal box should be returned, but that is not necessarily the last node any more. * Backward compatibility has been restored for \meaning\mathchar * node.first_character() has been renamed to node.first_glyph() to better match its actual functionality. * The \Umathaccent primitive now supports both/bottom keywords, and \Umathbotaccent / \Umathaccents are now deprecated. * The \Umathaccent primitive now also supports the fixed keyword, which supports non-growing math accents even if the font says there are extensible variants. * Ongoing work on the epdf library. Bugfixes: * Assignment to \dimen65535 was broken earlier. * <box>.head.prev is now always initialized to null (0). * luatex -lua=<script> '\relax' no longer exits immediately, instead going into interactive mode as it should. * The \jobname was initialized wrongly for input file names with multiple dots in them. * The synctex file is now written in the right place when --output-directory is given. * \letterspacefont could cause crashes, especially when combined with font expansion. * Luatex would crash on linux32 systems if it was build in an environment where LFS (>2GB files) was enabled by default. * Node lists created by node.copy_list() could not be hyphenated due to an assertion error. * Synctex support was partially broken since 0.60.0. * With OpenType math fonts, accents with multiple parts (like the \vec arrow) forgot to include all parts if the accentee was too narrow. * With OpenType math fonts, accents over any class except 0 and 7 were misplaced. * kpse.lookup("plain", {all = true}) was broken in kpathsea itself (no extension given as well as --all specified). * A FontForge bug made Cambria Math accents look bad, and the placement of math top accents did not allow a marker at the origin (patches by Stefan Philipp) * Cut&Paste from PDF was sometimes broken due to bad ToUnicode map. * Many small manual improvements (thanks to Paul Isambert) * An other bugfix to lpeg 0.9 (from Roberto Ierusalimsky) * Some small fixes to writet1.w (from Han The Thanh) * A build failure because of bad libz configuration on Win32 The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual: http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/project/luatex/ You could also check out the sources via anonymous svn: svn co http://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.65.0 Bugs and feature requests can be added to the issue tracker at http://tracker.luatex.org Have fun, Taco
