Of particular importance in this version of the beta is the distribution
and installation instructions for the supplemental fonts. We especially
want people who are not developers to read them over and try to follow
them. If you have problems, or even just find something that leaves you
momentarily confused, please let us know so that we can provide clear
and concise instructions.

# UPGRADE
### Additional fonts
With the addition of more cavum shapes, the number of font options which
come with Gregorio (the package) by default has been reduced in order to
control the download size. From now on only Greciliae will be installed
by default. The Gregorio and Grana Padano fonts, as well as their "-op"
Dominican variants, will now be available as a separate download. If
you were using these fonts, either download `supp_fonts-5_0_0.zip` and
install them or switch to Greciliae.
To install the new versions of Gregorio (the font) and Grana Padano,
unzip `supp_fonts-5_0_0.zip`, navigate to the uncompressed folder in
Terminal (or Command Prompt on Windows) and execute `texlua
install_supp_fonts.lua` after you have installed the main Gregorio
distribution. This script will look for the location of Greciliae and
copy the other fonts to that location. If you wish to control the
installation of the fonts manually, the script takes an optional
argument with one of the following values:
* `auto` (optional): the same folder as Greciliae
* `system`: the appropriate font folder in `$TEXMFLOCAL`
* `user`: the appropriate font folder in `$TEXMFHOME`
* `<dir>`: the name of an alternate texmf root directory you want to use
Additionally, if you are building the fonts yourself from a git clone,
`install-gtex.sh` and `install_supp_fonts.lua` will install all the
fonts you have built, not just the ones they are normally distributed with.
**Note:** All the above methods assume you only need to access the fonts
from within a TeX document (and thus are designed to put them into the
correct folder in a texmf tree). If you want to use the fonts in other
programs, then you will need to consult the documentation appropriate to
your platform and/or the program and manually move, copy, or link the
fonts to the necessary location.
# CHANGELOG
## [5.0.0-beta2] - 2017-02-24
### Fixed
- Glyphs for pes quadratum shapes with initio debilis are no longer
missing. Use `-fqg` to engrave them. See
[#1310](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1310).
### Changed
- The default behaviour of `\gregorioscore` has been changed to autocompile.
- When the note after an oriscus is at the same pitch, the oriscus
direction now depends on the first non-unison, non-oriscus note after
the oriscus (see
[#1179](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1179)).
### Removed
- The Gregorio and Grana Padano fonts are no longer distributed with the
Gregorio distribution archive. They will now be available for download
separately (along with their Dominican "-op" variants) in
`supp_fonts-5_0_0.zip` (the version number will change to match future
releases). See [UPGRADE.md](UPGRADE.md) and
[#844](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/844) for details.
