- Changelog
7.2
* Build
. "make install" installs files for texi2any under $datadir/texi2any, not
$datadir/texinfo.
* texinfo.tex
. use @ as the escape character in all index files. this requires
new enough texi2dvi (Texinfo 6.7, 2019) for index files to be
properly processed.
. a bug has been fixed where a mangled PDF outline could be produced for
a document using @unnumberedsec
. you can call @unmacro with an undefined macro name, matching the
behavior of texi2any
* texi2any
. set CHECK_NORMAL_MENU_STRUCTURE by default. this means texi2any
again checks menu structure by default (changed in 6.8 release, 2021).
. only allow @definfoenclose to be used to redefine highlighting commands
. sorting of indices is now independent of the input or output encodings
. new customization variable COLLATION_LANGUAGE to allow linguistic
tailoring of index sorting
. new variable DOCUMENTLANGUAGE_COLLATION to use @documentlanguage for
linguistic tailoring of index sorting
. new variable USE_UNICODE_COLLATION to allow turning off the slower
use of Unicode collation when sorting indices
. rename BODYTEXT customization variable to BODY_ELEMENT_ATTRIBUTES
. rename COMPLEX_FORMAT_IN_TABLE customization variable to
INDENTED_BLOCK_COMMANDS_IN_TABLE
. remove the following variables: AVOID_MENU_REDUNDANCY, FRAMES,
FRAMESET_DOCTYPE, NO_USE_SETFILENAME, SILENT, USE_UP_NODE_FOR_ELEMENT_UP
. remove SIMPLE_MENU variable and tree transformation
. the use of the directories ~/.texinfo and ~/.texi2any for configuration
files is deprecated, and should be replaced by texinfo or texi2any
directories under XDG_CONFIG_HOME (usually ~/.config/). the new
locations are compatible with the XDG Base Directory Specification.
in future versions, the ~/.texinfo and ~/.texi2any directories will
not be in search paths.
. do not try the us-ascii encoding anymore as a locale for translated
document strings.
. some unused translation files have been removed for the
`texinfo_document' domain
. Info output:
. output Info-documentlanguage in Local Variables section of output
file if @documentlanguage is given
. HTML, Texinfo and raw text output:
. an implementation of the conversion in C has been included, which
is much faster than the code in Perl. set the `TEXINFO_XS_CONVERT'
environment variable to 1 to use.
. HTML output:
. CHECK_HTMLXREF set by default for warnings about links to unknown
external manuals
. you can use the MATHJAX_CONFIGURATION customization variable to add
data to the MathJax configuration object
. warn if there is a .inf or .info suffix for cross-reference manual
. use <pre> instead of <div><em> for output of @displaymath
. remove border, cellpadding, cellspacing and align attributes. add
classes and use CSS when needed.
. EPUB output:
. stricter conformance for conformance checkers
* info
. check for init file under XDG_CONFIG_HOME/texinfo/infokey after
checking ~/.infokey, in accordance with the XDG Base Directory
Specification
* Distribution
. automake 1.17, autoconf 2.72, gettext 0.22.5, libtool 2.5.3
