Dead? Or simply >no more news on that front, still? Not dead. Ton is finishing the update of the beginners manual (after that it can be translated to other languages). Concerning interface documentation, we want to do that in xml, so there i need some decent xml support in the core first. Ths basics are already there, but as a testcase i implement mathml, which in turn demands manuals and examples (halfway done). [for those interested: i make the manual in good old tex code while all math is entered as mathml, so one can mix tex and xml, and so far the math comes out quite well]. My rough schedule for the next couple of months is (goes in parallel with some projects that need it): - basic xml support + mathml - named glyphs and unicode (needed for central european pdf, chinese and omega farsi etc) - multiple otr support combined with dtp like column/float handling - additional font support also on the todo list: - computer language typesetting (for bzyl) - more metafun - some styles - more documentation - texwork cum suis Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------
