The MetaPost team is happy to announce a new release of MetaPost: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost 1.1000 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The sources and a win32 package can be downloaded immediately from http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/metapost/ This release will also be available from CTAN soon, and it will be included in the next TeXLive. The source package should compile normally on all systems that are capable of compiling a modern web2c-based TeX distribution. The win32 package is intended for texlive or a similar web2c-based installation, and has been tested only with TeXLive 2008. These executables will *not* work for miktex, sorry. Of course, we welcome any comments (either good or bad) that you may have. Simply replying to this message is fine, but see the bottom of the message for a more formal way to report bugs and feature requests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What is new in version 1.100: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * This release is the first version based on MPlib, the Cweb conversion / reimplementation of MetaPost. The one but big user-visible change is that the btex ... etex label conversion is now handled internally instead of via the external "mpware" programs. These programs are therefore no longer distributed. * There is a new manual, mplibapi.pdf, that describes the internal interface to MPlib for developers. * The file 'mpintro.pdf' is no longer distributed because the introduction mnaual is obsolete and has been that way for some time. A new tutorial is being worked on and will be included in future releases. * The distribution now includes Dan Luecking's mpsproof.tex. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Legal notice / license / bug reports ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost is a system for producing graphics developed by John Hobby at AT&T, based on Donald Knuth's Metafont.
