Patchlevel 7b (Oct 2019) NEW FEATURES: o A X color database is not needed, but can be provided. The location of the database can be given at compile time, default /etc/X11/rgb.txt. BUGS FIXED: Ticket numbers refer to https://sourceforge.net/p/mcj/tickets/#. Debian bug numbers refer to https://bugs.debian.org/#. o Do not clip objects with line-thickness 0 having arrows. Ticket #53. o Do not segfault on circle/half circle arrowheads with a magnification larger 42. Always draw circle arrowheads with 40 points. Ticket #52. o Allow circles or ellipses with negative radii. Ticket #49. o Avoid "dimension too large error" with tikz output by avoiding coordinate values smaller than -16383. o Make tests (test1.c) work with -fsanitize=address compiler option. o Obey join-style of lines in tikz output. o Pass utf8-strings to svg output, escape some chars (<>&). o Accept inclined boxes and change them to polygons. Fixes ticket #43. o Make tests #27 and #33 work on Mac Darwin, failed due to whitespace formatting differences. From Hanspeter Niederstrasser. Ticket #40. o Use only latex, neither etex or tex, to test tikz output. Usage of etex, after hint from Roland Rosenfeld, closed debian bug 920368. o For tikz output, do not draw arrows on a single point line. o Omit spurious showpage when including jpg-file. From Rainer Buchty. o Correct a few memory leaks and corruptions. See commit d1c54f6. o Change negative color numbers to default color. Fixes ticket #30. o A spline with one point would cause segfault. Fixed, see ticket #29. o Allow one char without newline in the last line of an input file. Fixes ticket #28. o Harden input, mainly against files in which an incomplete object would be created and freeing the object would violate memory, i.e, it may cause segfault. See, e.g., ticket #27. o Properly initalize line storage when reading fig files version 1.3. Would segfault when reading incomplete line and trying to free it. Fixes ticket #26, debian bug 906743. o Silently ignore the hundred-first and more comment lines. This fixes ticket #25 and debian bug 906740. o Use SetFigFont, not SetFigFontNFSS in pictex output. Fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transfig/+bug/1359485 . o Accept blanks in color names (e.g., fig2dev -L eps -g"Misty Rose"..). o Correct typos in man-pages, debian 30_man_typo.patch. ------------------------------------- Patchlevel 7a (May 2018) NEW FEATURES: o Add option -w, wrap (create stand-alone perl file) for Perl/Tk output. o Distribute the X bitmaps files within fig2dev, no need to install these files. The files were needed for Tk and Perl/Tk output. BUGS FIXED: Ticket numbers refer to https://sourceforge.net/p/mcj/tickets/#. o Fix regression whereupon flipped ellipses were not read. Ticket #23. o Distribute i18n files ru_RU.CP1251.ps and uk_UA.KOI8-U.ps. o Make test "survive debian bug #890016" succeed on 32 bit systems. ------------------------------------- Patchlevel 7 (April 2018) OPTION LETTER CHANGES: o Language previous option current option ------------------------------------------------------------ cgm -b dummy -a epic -A scale -d scale eepic -A scale -d scale eepicemu -A scale -d scale gbx -i on|off -v ibmgl -m mag,xoff,yoff -m mag -x xoff -y yoff mp -I file -d file ps -S dummy -o NEW FEATURES: o Print language-specific help text by using fig2dev -L lang -h. o Add option -M, multipage, for MetaPost output language. o Add option -P, pagemode, and -z to choose a pagesize for pdf output. o Add option -W (scaling of figures not possible) for tikz. o Add option -b, border width, for LaTeX output language. o Add option -f for pstex_t and pdftex_t output language. o Add uk_UA and ru_RU encodings for PostScript output. Ticket #12. BUGS FIXED: o Update help text: Output help for dxf and textyl output language, add description of -g option for Tk/Tcl and Perl/Tk output, allow -f option for pstex_t and pdftex_t output language. Debian bug numbers refer to https://bugs.debian.org/#. Ticket numbers refer to https://sourceforge.net/p/mcj/tickets/#. o Sanitize input. Do not segfault on malformed input files. Fixes debian bugs 881143, 881144, 881396, 890015, 890016, 882021 and also 882022. o Do not put an %%Orientation: comment into PostScript output. Some viewers would rotate the resulting file, others not. o Fix build on NetBSD, which has a _setmode() function different from _setmode() on Windows. Ticket #17. Also, avoid alloca(). Ticket #16. o tikz output: Omit the semicolon after \pgftext[..]{...};. o Define PostScript patterns with larger tiles, may render better. #13 o Fix build in case libXpm is missing. Ticket #15. o Use netpbm programs instead of ghostscript, to produce smaller files. o Correctly embed eps files with binary preview (epsi, typically found on Microsoft systems). Also, allow to embed ps-files. Fixes debian bug 248807, ticket #8. o For compilation, do not depend on PATH_MAX being defined.
