The next pretest for the next Texinfo release has been uploaded to
https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-6.6.92.tar.xz
The highlight of this release will be improved indexing facilities.
The only difference from texinfo-6.6.91 is that the gnulib updates
that were present in texinfo-6.6.90 have been included: these updates
had been lost by mistake since then.
Please send any comments to <address@hidden>.
Full news:
* Language:
. support of index subentries and sub-subentries with @subentry
. new commands @seeentry and @seealso in index entries
. no need to wrap Top node in @ifnottex - omitted automatically when
processed with TeX
. UTF-8 is the default input encoding
* texi2any
. for HTML output, mark index nodes in menus and tables of contents
with the 'rel' attribute of the 'a' tag.
. TOP_NODE_UP is now only used in HTML if TOP_NODE_UP_URL is set.
Also TOP_NODE_UP should now be formatted in the output format.
In HTML TOP_NODE_UP should be suitable for inclusion in HTML
element attributes, so for instance should not contain elements.
. support of noderename.cnf files has been removed
. INPUT_PERL_ENCODING, INPUT_ENCODING_NAME, NODE_FILE_EXTENSION,
NODE_FILENAMES, SHORTEXTN and TOP_NODE_FILE removed as customization
variables.
. TOP_NODE_FILE_TARGET now contains the extension.
. error messages translated when the XS parser module is in use
* texi2dvi
. unconditionally run in --batch mode, i.e. without stopping if there
is a TeX error
. keep on going after a TeX error if the index files changed
. with --tidy (or --build-dir), avoid reading index files from previous
runs where --tidy was not used
* info
. for a tree search (with M-/), '}' and '{' work as well as 'M-}' and
'M-{' to go through the results
* Distribution:
. Several obsolete portability checks removed
. gettext 0.20.1, automake 1.16.1
