This file records noteworthy changes. 3.9 (4 October 1996) * makeinfo: - Give a suppressible (with --no-validate) error for references outside of any node. - Keep track of multitable output correctly for split files; this caused nodes after the first multitable to be ``undefined''. * install-info: - Rename --infodir option to --info-dir. - More robust error checking to avoid various crashes. * configure: Include replacements for memcpy and memmove functions in the distribution, in case they are missing. 3.8 (30 September 1996) * Define and/or document new and/or previously existing commands: Accents: @" @' @, @" @= @^ @` @~ @H @d @dotaccent @dotless @ringaccent @tieaccent @u @ubaraccent @v Special characters: @AA @AE @L @O @OE @aa @ae @exclamdown @l @o @oe @pounds @questiondown @ss Special punctuation: @! @? @enddots dir file maintenance: @dircategory @direntry; also new program, install-info HTML support: @email @url @ifhtml...@end ifhtml Macros: @macro @unmacro Tables: @multitable @tab Hyphenation: @- @hyphenation Spacing: @ @ @ Sectioning: @headings singleafter/doubleafter (change heading style after current page) @centerchap @setchapterstyle Other: @shorttitlepage (simple title pages) @detailmenu...@end detailmenu (help makeinfo parse master menus) * Makeinfo prefers an input file named `foo.texinfo' or `foo.texi' or `foo.txinfo' to just `foo' (the latter most likely being an executable). * Makeinfo implements @. @! @? correctly, as end-of-sentence punctuation. * @key marks its argument with a lozenge in TeX and <...> in Info. * TeX output has substantially decreased interline spacing and other formatting changes. * Remove these obsolete and never-documented commands: @infotop @infoappendix @infoappendixsec @infoappendixsubsec @infoappendixsubsubsec @infochapter @infosection @infosubsection @infosubsubsection @infounnumbered @infounnumberedsec @infounnumberedsubsec @infounnumberedsubsubsec @input @smallbreak @medbreak @overfullrule @br * Deprecate these obsolete commands, to be removed in the next release: @ctrl @infoinclude @iappendix @iappendixsection @iappendixsec @iappendixsubsec @iappendixsubsubsec @ichapter @isection @isubsection @isubsubsection @iunnumbered @iunnumberedsec @iunnumberedsubsec @iunnumberedsubsubsec @setchapterstyle @titlespec 3.7 (24 December 1995) * Have --version print texinfo release number as well as the individual program version. * Better man page cleaning. * Update Elisp files from current Emacs release. 3.6 (21 June 1995) * Unmatched brace error reporting improved. * Missing comment terminator prevented compilation. 3.5 (20 June 1995) * Autoconf update. * Support for parallel makes. * make install does not install Elisp files. 3.4 (19 June 1995) * Handle @ifhtml in Elisp. * Update FSF address. 3.3 (15 June 1995) * Portability changes. * Compile Elisp files. * Don't distribute .info* files. 3.2 (9 June 1995) * Standalone Info can read Unix man pages. * New commands: @! @? @^ @" @enddots. * makeinfo -E does macro expansion (and nothing else). 3.1 (23 May 1993) Just bug fixes, see ChangeLog for full details. texinfo-3.0: first release of Texinfo version 2, with many new commands.
