Hi, I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.78.0. This release merges some experimental branches, and fixes a few of the outstanding bugs. Changes: * Instead of using expanded fonts, just calculate the expanded width of glyphs where needed, and carry expand info in the glyph nodes (all based on Hans' suggestions). All font expansion functions are disabled and most are removed. * New, faster (but limited) direct node access from lua, see the manual for details * Support for Apple Advanced Typography (AAT) information in fonts is dropped * Extended build script for mingw/msys (includes 64-bit support) * Various patches from/via Akira Kakuta for better Win32 integration * Fixes for some bugs in de pdfscanner library (mostly related to inline images) * Maximum hyphenated word length is now 64Kb characters. * Various patches from Khaled Hosny and Luigi Scarso for the luafontloader subsystem * Fix for a crash when re-dumping formats * Fix for a Selene unicode library bug where some characters in UTF-8 were incorrectly flagged as having the 'Space' property * Some smaller fixes The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual: https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/luatex/ You could also check out the sources via anonymous svn: svn co --username anonsvn --password anonsvn \ https://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.78.0 Bugs and feature requests can be added to the issue tracker at http://tracker.luatex.org Have fun, and a happy new year!

This is really gerat! Thanks for the new year's eve gift. Is there any official or non-official plan to provide binaries? I don't know who usually compiles lin/mac/win binaries. How does this relate to luajittex? Is this included or is it a separate project? Patrick

Windows binaries are automatically compiled by Akira Kakuto within a very short time. See the links on http://w32tex.org/. The mirror is also on CTAN. Mac binaries are already on http://svn.contextgarden.net/suite-bin/tex/, others need to be compiled by other maintainers in the ConTeXt community. However I'm unable to find TLContrib, so the binaries won't proliferate there yet.

Luajittex is a separate project maintained by Luigi. He needs to merge the changes manually. Mojca
