We are happy to announce a new test release of MetaPost:
---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost 1.780 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a second test release for the new functionality planned in MetaPost 1.800. This version will not be uploaded to CTAN / TLcontrib yet. The plan is to wait for a few weeks before releasing 1.800. That will then be an official end-user release. Bugs in the current version are still likely, so use with care! The standalone distribution package and a win32 binary can be downloaded immediately from http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/project/metapost/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What is new in MetaPost version 1.780: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * The turningnumber calculation in 1.770 was bugged. * The picture export in 1.770 forgot to add trailing zeroes to the log and term output channel resulting in rubbish output. * The arguments of the PS "dtransform" operator have been fixed (was wrong since 1.750). * The warning limit in numbersystem=double mode is now exactly 2**52. * A bunch of obvious memory leaks fixed. Not all yet, but now the MPlib seems to be usable even with many graphics. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
