Hi all, This past month I have been busy with nodes and lists of nodes, so the big new feature in this release is that there are four callbacks that operate on node lists: buildpage_filter pre_linebreak_filter hpack_filter vpack_filter The preliminary documentation for these is in the manual, but the basic idea is that you can filter a node list just before LuaTeX starts doing something with it (like line breaking). This functionality is not stable yet: the node presentation of the various node types is pretty much OK now, but keep in mind the following: * math noads and math typesetting are not handled at all (yet) * not all hpacks and vpacks are intercepted (yet) * the nested node list handling will probably change * A conversion tool for nodes to/from dictionaries is planned, but not done yet The other changes in this snapshot are various bugfixes (for builds on various platforms as well as font issues) and speedups (in the execution of callbacks and the creation of lua font representations). Have fun, Taco ----- Downloading and installation details: If you go to https://foundry.supelec.fr/frs/?group_id=10 you will see that there are three new released files: * luatex-snapshot-20070426.tar.bz2 This is the source tree. * luatex-snapshot-20070426-win32.zip A cross-compiled (mingw) windows binary. This is a web2c based binary, so it needs a texmf.cnf file (It will NOT work if you have only miktex installed). * luatex-snapshot-20070426-linux-i386.tar.bz2 An intel 32 linux binary (very new gcc/libc)

Debian package 20070426-1 is available in Debian/unstable, and as usual
on the tug.org server for i386.
