I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.65.0.
This release mostly fixes a number of bugs, but it also deprecates a number of existing lua and macro commands. Please read the News section carefully if you are the current maintainer of a luatex macro package.
News:
- The Aleph and Omega version primitives are deprecated.
- The Apple Snow Leopard Truetype font collections now work
properly.
- Libpng has been updated to 1.4.4, and zlib to 1.2.5.
- New lua functions
node.next() and node.prev().
- The already deprecated for some time
node.protrusion_skipable()
function has been removed.
-
fontloader.apply_featurefile() and
fontloader.apply_afmfile() now return nil,<errortable> on failure.
- The various node list fields in the lua node interface have
been renamed from 'list' to 'head', e.g. tex.box[0].head,
and the 'list' name is deprecated. For now, the deprecation
is silent, as 'list' will stay for quite some time. Please
update your lua source as soon as possible, though.
- The call
node.type(<node>) now returns "node". The existing
functionality is otherwise unchanged.
- Luafilesystem has been updated to 1.5.0. NOTE: there is an
incompatible change in the directory iterator method.
- The restriction on
linebreak_filter has been eased: at least one
horizontal box should be returned, but that is not necessarily
the last node any more.
- Backward compatibility has been restored for
\meaning\mathchar
-
node.first_character() has been renamed to node.first_glyph()
to better match its actual functionality.
- The
\Umathaccent primitive now supports both/bottom keywords,
and \Umathbotaccent / \Umathaccents are now deprecated.
- The
\Umathaccent primitive now also supports the fixed keyword,
which supports non-growing math accents even if the font says
there are extensible variants.
- Ongoing work on the epdf library.
