" as the default chapter number-title separator ** Improved rendering of pie charts with Ploticus ** New experimental `--enable-guile-vm' configure switch This allows compilation with the compiler of "Guile-VM", i.e., the future Guile 2.x. ** New test suite (run "make check") * New in Skribilo 0.9.1 ** Improved `configure' diagnostics and build/installation fixes Thanks to Barrie Stott! ** Various documentation fixes, improvements and additions Notably, examples no longer use the legacy Skribe API and the ConTeXt engine is now documented. ** Emacs mode no longer depends on Bigloo UDE ** Guile warnings about duplicate bindings are now hidden These harmless warnings looked like: WARNING: (skribilo ast): imported module (srfi srfi-34) overrides core binding `raise' ** The `slide' package supports additional customs Namely, `slide-outline-title' and `slide-outline-{active,inactive}-color'. See manual for details. ** The `:toc' option of `slide' determines whether to include it in the outline ** New option `:rulecolor' for `table' ** New `--sui-path' command-line option, new `*sui-path*' parameter ** Fix SUI `:ident' references ** Use more SRFI-34/35 exception handling instead of `skribe-error' ** Lesser reliance on recursive make * New in Skribilo 0.9.0 (user-visible changes compared to Skribe 1.2d) ** New engine: `lout' (see http://lout.sf.net/). ** New packages - `eq' for equation formatting. - `pie' for pie charts. - `diff' for document diff (experimental). - `web-book2' for on-line publishing. ** New markups in the `base' package `~', `breakable-space', `numref', `!lout', `lout-illustration'. ** Extended markups in the `base' package - `footnote' now takes a `:label' option. - `document' now takes a `:keywords' option. - `bibliography' now takes a `:labels' option. ** New `outline' front-end (see the `--reader' option of `skribilo') ** New module system (actually that of GNU Guile), no `skribe-load' Just like modules help structure programs, they are useful for documents: Skribilo documents are not second-class programs. Also, by default, Skribilo documents have fewer bindings in their name space than Skribe documents. For compatibility with Skribe, see the `--compat=skribe' command-line option. ** Little or no global state Per-document data structures (e.g., per-document node identifier hash table) or SRFI-39 parameters (e.g., `*document-path*') are used where appropriate, which introduces API changes. Use `--compat=skribe' for compatibility with Skribe. ** Stricter document structure In Skribe, if the engine allowed it, it was possible to use `section' instead of `chapter' as the top-level section type. The `latex' engine, consequently, has a new custom named `class-has-chapters?'. ** Unique node identifiers No two nodes within a document can have the same identifier (`:ident' parameter). Duplicate identifiers are reported as an error. ** Bug fixes Most notably in the `resolve' subsystem. ** New build system ** Last but not least: New name! :-) ;;; Local Variables: ;;; mode: org ;;; coding: utf-8 ;;; End:
