I am happy to announce a new (and my final) release of MetaPost: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost 1.999 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the pre-release for Metapost 2.000. The only functional difference between this version and 1.901 is the addition of the 'binary' numbersystem. This version will *not* be included in TL2014, for two reasons: * integration of the required GMP & MPFR libraries into the texlive build system is not trivial, and is better postponed until after the current TL release. * Not a lot of testing has been done yet. A source archive can be downloaded from the files section at https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/metapost/ You can also do an anonymous subversion checkout: $ svn checkout --username anonsvn https://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/metapost/tags/1.999 The password is anonsvn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What is new in MetaPost version 1.999: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * The numbersystem 'binary' is now operational. For the last time from me: Have fun! Taco Hoekwater, for the MetaPost team, April 9, 2014
