new version of t-french.mkiv

new version of t-french.mkiv

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

Finally, after a development period of more than three years[1], I'm pleased
to announce the long-awaited[2] update of the t-french ConTeXt module, which
is greatly enhanced compared to the previous version[3]. In spite of the high
complexity[4] of the code, I consider the module stable[5] enough for daily
usage. This is indicated, just as in other major software projects, by an even
version number[6]. You can download the new version from [7]. With a modern
and fast Internet connection, the download time should hopefully not
exceed about 5 minutes.

Enjoy, Peter

Footnotes: 
[1]  During some parts of this evening, development was exceptionally active.
[2]  A user requested an update.
[3]  The previous version did not work at all.
[4]  There are parts, that I haven't understood yet.
[5]  A simple test file compiles without errors.
[6]  Another interpretation of the version 2011.11.08 is also possible.

The \' is probably not needed (in mkiv) which saves you some upload time.

Are \iemes etc used in some conversion?

instead of the demo mode you can do:

\continueifinputfile{t-french.tex}

in which case running the file will produce the test section.

Interesting that you put myItems in a macro instead of a buffer.

Hans

Yes, let's save bandwidth ;)

No, I've just copied these definitions from enco-ffr.mkii.

Thanks for your remarks, I've uploaded a new version!
