The MetaPost team is happy to announce a new release of MetaPost: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost 1.101 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The sources and a win32 package can be downloaded immediately from http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/metapost/ This release will also be available from CTAN soon, and it will be included in the next TeXLive. The source package should compile normally on all systems that are capable of compiling a modern web2c-based TeX distribution. The win32 package is intended for texlive or a similar web2c-based installation, and has been tested only with TeXLive 2008. These executables will *not* work for miktex, sorry. Of course, we welcome any comments (either good or bad) that you may have. Simply replying to this message is fine, but see the bottom of the message for a more formal way to report bugs and feature requests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What is new in MetaPost version 1.101: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is just a bugfix release. The following bugs / problem areas in MetaPost 1.100 have been fixed / improved: * TFM file generation was completely broken. * The job name discovery on the commandline has been improved. * Under some (rare) conditions MetaPost forgot to create a log file. * Labels containing char0 were exported to PostScript incorrectly. * On Windows, the DVI file that is the result from the internal call to TeX for btex .. etex lables was not deleted automatically. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Legal notice / license / bug reports ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost is a system for producing graphics developed by John Hobby at AT&T, based on Donald Knuth's Metafont.
