This file records noteworthy changes.

||
3.2 (15 March 1998)
|
||
* Brace expansion will accept the path separator as well as the comma,
|
||
e.g., {foo:bar}.
|
||
* For TeX, we only recognize one suffix, because there is no such thing
|
||
as a canonical list of TeX suffixes.
|
||
* We distinguish between two kinds of suffixes in the code: the standard
|
||
suffixes which may be appended to filenames when searching; and the
|
||
alternative suffixes which are never appended, but when found this
|
||
prevents a search with one of the standard suffixes.
|
||
* kpse_reset_program_name: change assumed program name, resets the search
|
||
paths, so that searches will work as expected for the new name.
|
||
* kpse_set_program_name: new function, replaces kpse_set_progname.
|
||
* The MakeTeX* scripts have been renamed to mktex* forms.
|
||
|
||
3.1 (10 November 1997)
|
||
* The support for multiple texmf trees is much improved.
|
||
* New MakeTeX* scripts, based on teTeX's. These scripts now use
|
||
heuristics to decide where generated files are placed and which
|
||
permissions they should have.
|
||
* The varfonts feature is enabled by default.
|
||
* Some MSDOS/Win32 support added to the sources.
|
||
* Change in searching algorithm: if a name doesn't have the default suffix
|
||
we append it for the first search. Then we search for the bare name.
|
||
Thus if you have foo.bar and foo.bar.tex, the latter will now be found
|
||
first. Under the old system, you had to specify boo.bar.tex.tex to get
|
||
foo.bar.tex instead of foo.bar.
|
||
* Prepend the value of KPSE_DOT to relative paths from texmf.cnf if it
|
||
defined in the environment. This means we can use . instead of
|
||
$KPSE_DOT in paths.
|
||
* Define brace expansion so that {a,b}{1,2} expands to a1:b1:a2:b2. This
|
||
is different from how shells do it, and exploited in texmf.in.
|
||
* Renamed texmf.cnf.in to texmf.in.
|
||
* New value for debugging: DEBUG_VARS, equal to 64.
|
||
* If a file format has no suffix, allow its long name as the argument to
|
||
kpsewhich --format.
|
||
|
||
3.0 (7 February 1997)
|
||
* Distribution terms changed to the GNU Library General Public License.
|
||
* Default directory structure matches the TDS standard. The most
|
||
important change is in the fonts/ directory: the file type (tfm, pk)
|
||
is now directly underneath fonts/. Also, mft/ is now at the top level.
|
||
`modeless' is used for gsftopk/ps2pk/etc.-generated fonts.
|
||
* Change in searching algorithm: if the name already has a suffix
|
||
(foo.sty), search for it by itself first, before appending the default
|
||
suffix (foo.sty.tex). This loses if you have an executable named
|
||
foo.bar, with documentation in foo.bar.tex (foo.bar will be found
|
||
first). But this is unusual, and the other case is common.
|
||
* Environment variables PATH_program (e.g., TEXINPUTS_latex) checked
|
||
for, as with configuration file values (TEXINPUTS.latex).
|
||
* Multiple TEXMF trees supported, via the following new facility:
|
||
* Shell brace expansion {foo,bar} implemented, thanks to Bash.
|
||
* Multiple ls-R files supported via the TEXMFDBS path.
|
||
* An ``alias'' database for files in ls-R supported, to handle 8.3 problems.
|
||
* Directories in the ls-R file can be relative (./) as well as absolute (/).
|
||
* New MakeTeX{PK,TFM,MF} scripts with more features, based on teTeX's.
|
||
* DVIPSMAKEPK (etc.) actually overrides the name `MakeTeXPK', as documented.
|
||
* MakeTeX* can be globally disabled via configure options.
|
||
* Support for building as a shared library with configure --enable-shared.
|
||
* Directories whose names begin with `.' are ignored.
|
||
* Some warnings can be suppressed by TEX_HUSH cnf value or envvar.
|
||
* kpsewhich has many new capabilities, documented via --help and in the manual.
|
||
* texfonts.map parsing has an include directive, and @c is a comment.
|
||
* Input lines in texmf.cnf can be continued with \.
|
||
* TEXMFLOG can be set in texmf.cnf, as previously documented.
|
||
* SELFAUTODIR and SELFAUTOPARENT are defined according to the location
|
||
of the binary, and used to search for texmf.cnf.
|
||
* /// (or more) is equivalent to //.
|
||
* If $HOME = / (as with root on some systems), avoid creating // in paths.
|
||
* Support for AFM, PostScript Type 1 font, source, documentation, Omega,
|
||
and MetaPost-related file formats.
|
||
* New header kpathsea.h with all #include files.
|
||
* Under DOS, ls-R lines need not start with . or / or \ (e.g., c:).
|
||
* Amiga support.
|
||
|
||
2.6 (9 January 1995)
|
||
* MakeTeXPK installed from kpathsea, instead of each driver.
|
||
* MakeTeXPK.site looked for in texmf/web2c, instead of texmf/dvips.
|
||
* texmf.cnf installed and looked for in texmf/web2c, instead of texmf.
|
||
* If a mode is not explicitly specified, search all subdirectories (this
|
||
was actually in a previous release).
|
||
* install-sh only looked for in the top-level directory.
|
||
* kpsewhich replaces and generalizes kpsexpand.
|
||
|
||
2.5 (15 December 1994)
|
||
* Go back to calling db_insert after a successful MakeTeXPK, and check
|
||
for lack of an ls-R.
|
||
* Handle case of magstep -.5 for MakeTeXPK properly.
|
||
|
||
2.4 (28 October 1994)
|
||
* Avoid calling db_insert, which caused a segmentation fault.
|
||
|
||
2.3 (26 October 1994)
|
||
* Extra :'s in an envvar value, referring to the texmf.cnf value, work.
|
||
* Names like dpi600/cmr10.pk can be found in ls-R.
|
||
* KPATHSEA_DEBUG environment variable checked.
|
||
* Directories like pk/ljfour directly under $TEXMF/fonts are found.
|
||
* New standalone program, kpsexpand, optionally compiled and installed,
|
||
to do variable expansion (not path searching).
|
||
* Debugging output written to stderr instead of stdout.
|
||
* pxlNNN support removed; I never intended to support `pxl1500', and
|
||
pxl300 is never used.
|
||
|
||
2.2 (14 October 1994)
|
||
* MakeTeXPK invoked for the any_glyph type; this is for xdvik.
|
||
* MakeTeXPK sources $(psheaderdir)/MakeTeXPK.site if it exists.
|
||
* pxlNNN/cmr10.pk searched for (as well as dpiNNN/cmr10.pk and cmr10.NNNpk)
|
||
|
||
2.1 (12 September 1994)
|
||
* Manual goes through TeX, and .cps/.aux files are in the distribution.
|
||
* INSTALL* variables set at the top level.
|
||
* Dependency on GNU tr making paths.h and texmf.sed (->texmf.cnf) removed.
|
||
* texmf.cnf installed if it didn't previously exist.
|
||
|
||
2.0 (8 September 1994)
|
||
* Runtime configuration file support; see the manual.
|
||
* Both dpi600/cmr10.pk and cmr10.600pk are searched for.
|
||
* ls-R matches $TEXMF//latex2e vs. $TEXMF//latex209.
|
||
* $TEXMFLOG, if set, specifies a filename for logging successful searches.
|
||
* All directory entries beginning with `.' are ignored, not just `.' and `..'.
|
||
* Default path for PK and GF fonts includes the mode name.
|
||
* ls-R is in $TEXMFROOT instead of hardwired at compile time.
|
||
* More debugging flags, and they can be set with client program options.
|
||
* If MakeTeX{PK,TFM} fail, or aren't invoked, a file missfont.log is
|
||
written with the requisite commands, as in dvips.
|
||
* More 328/329/330 fixes, maybe for the last time.
|
||
* The override font paths (XDVIFONTS etc.) apply only to glyph (PK/GF)
|
||
searches, not TFM or VF.
|
||
* -g is not the default when linking, to avoid unnecessarily large binaries
|
||
(due to static libraries) under Linux.
|
||
* configure checks for a smart putenv.
|
||
* Stat results are cached to speed up disk searches.
|
||
|
||
1.8 (2 April 1994)
|
||
* New target install-info, so the documentation can be installed without
|
||
the headers.
|
||
* Existing but unreadable files are complained about, instead of just ignored.
|
||
* A leading %% in a path element forbids searching the disk for that
|
||
element; only a db will be searched (if it exists).
|
||
* The db is only used if it might be relevant to a given path element,
|
||
not searched first regardless.
|
||
|
||
1.7 (1 March 1994)
|
||
* Searches can use an externally-built ls-R ``database'', for speed.
|
||
* `VPATH = .' lines removed from generated Makefile, for broken Sun make.
|
||
* A path foo//tfm finds foo/tfm as well as foo/*/tfm.
|
||
|
||
1.6 (3 February 1994)
|
||
* Memory fault in copying long paths fixed.
|
||
* More variables passed down from the top-level Makefile.
|
||
* Mention SMART_PUTENV in the INSTALL file, and fix bug in xputenv.c
|
||
when one envvar is a proper prefix of another.
|
||
* More attempts at eliminating magstephalf annoyances.
|
||
* Directory name substitutions are done globally when creating paths.h.
|
||
* Various changes for DOS.
|
||
|
||
1.5 (24 January 1994)
|
||
* Default paths changed.
|
||
* Defining GCC_WCHAR lets GCC define wchar_t.
|
||
* EXIT_FAILURE and EXIT_SUCCESS defined in all cases (if they're not already).
|
||
* str[r]chr never redefined (I hope).
|
||
|
||
1.4 (3 November 1993)
|
||
* Check closest fallback font size.
|
||
* All default paths (including dvips') in paths.h.in, not the Makefile.
|
||
* Rearrange directory lists so that dirs in which a file is found
|
||
migrate to the top.
|
||
* Update for Autoconf 1.7.
|
||
|
||
1.3 (6 October 1993)
|
||
* Fix free of non-malloced memory bug.
|
||
* Fix uninitialized gf path bug.
|
||
* mkdirchain invoked as an absolute filename.
|
||
|
||
1.2 (27 September 1993)
|
||
* Running MakeTeXPK is tried before the fallback resolutions.
|
||
* The final bitmap name uses a variable spec, so DOS & OS/2 can get
|
||
dpi300/cmr10.pk.
|
||
* Document TeX-specific features.
|
||
* Dpi passed to MakeTeXPK via the envvar KPATHSEA_DPI instead of MAKETEX_DPI.
|
||
|
||
1.1 (26 August 1993)
|
||
* Installation fixes.
|
||
|
||
1.0 (5 August 1993)
|
||
* Routines to look up TeX font files, default path specifications, etc.
|
||
* Sort-of pattern matching: /foo//bar matches subdirectories
|
||
/foo/a/bar, /foo/b/bar, /foo/a1/a2/bar, etc.
|
||
* $var and ${var} expansion.
|
||
* Support for MakeTeX... scripts.
|
||
* Support for fallback resolutions and font.
|
