The liblouisxml developer team is proud to announce the liblouisxml
release 2.4.0. The release is available for download at:

Introduction
------------
Liblouisxml is a library intended to provide complete braille
transcription services for xml documents. It translates into
appropriate braille codes and formats according to its style sheet and
the specifications in the document. A command-line program, xml2brl
which uses this library is also included. The latest version of
liblouis is required.

This release brings in the many bug fixes and feature enhancements that
Bert Frees has done while working on the odt2braille Braille extension
to OpenOffice.org Writer.

printed at least at the bottom of a Braille page.

a letter (a, b, c, etc.) on continued pages.
- pageSeparator: Enable or disable placing of a page separator
line where a print page break occurs.

a separate line for page numbers when they are placed at the top
or bottom.
- printPageNumbersInContents/braillePageNumbersInContents: Enable
or disable print and Braille page numbers in the table of
contents.
Improvements
=============
- braillePageNumberAt/printPageNumberAt: Print page numbers and
Braille page numbers can now both be placed at the top or bottom
together.

newPageAfter and pagenum.
Bug fixes
