gtexinfo only needs the t*() termcap functions (info/terminal.c).
+ Drop patch-ad. The custom termcap code it added is now automatically
handled by termcap.buildlink3.mk. Also the modification to the
function signature for output_character_function is wrong -- tputs
does expect "int (*)(int)".
Bump the PKGREVISION to 1.
Based on patch provided by Magnus Henoch in PR 37481.
I made some modification:
* keep and update patch-ac (need to pick up pkgsrc info files).
* fixes PLIST, missing some entries.
* portability fix in texi2dvi (patch-am).
* DESTDIR support.
Changes:
4.11 (9 September 2007)
* Language:
. @documentlanguage now supports an optional country code
specification after the language code, a la gettext.
. new command @allowcodebreaks controls breaks at _ and - within @code.
. new command @frenchspacing controls spacing after sentences.
. new command @fonttextsize allows changing body text font size to 10pt.
. new command @textdegree{} produces the normal degrees symbol.
. new command @thischapternum can be used in TeX headers/footers.
. new commands for quotes: @quotedblleft @quotedblright
@quoteleft @quoteright @quotedblbase @quotesinglbase
@guillemetleft @guillemetright @guilsinglleft @guilsinglright.
. new option @set txicodequoteundirected produces an undirected quote
in code and example output, instead of the regular right quote.
. new option @set txicodequotebacktick produces a grave accent in
code and example output, instead of the regular left quote.
* makeinfo:
. The @documentlanguage locale is used to translate various document strings.
. --enable-encoding is now the default, meaning Info and plain text
output use 8-bit characters given a supported @documentencoding.
. new option --css-ref=URL for creating a stylesheet <link> in HTML output.
. new option --transliterate-file-names to use a reduction-to-ASCII
algorithm for split HTML file names, useful for non-Latin-based languages.
. @enddots{} outputs three dots instead of four, for consistency with
texinfo.tex.
. the Local Variables coding: setting written by --enable-encoding now
comes at the very end, after the tags table, so that Emacs can find
it in more cases.
. @allow-recursion (never documented) is deprecated and produces a warning.
. @quote-args (never documented) is now the default behavior.
. centering and such take account of character widths.
. the --reference-limit option is now a no-op.
. improvements to XML and Docbook output and the DTD.
* texinfo.tex:
. @thissection can now be used in custom headings, and @thischapter
works reliably even without @set chapternewpage. Custom headings
have additional flexibility as well.
* texi2dvi:
. pdftexi2dvi is a new wrapper to `texi2dvi --pdf', equal to texi2pdf,
for the sake of AUC-TeX which prepends `pdf' to the compilation
command when requested to produce PDF.
* info:
. look for info files in the current directory first, by default.
. when calling man, use -a if no explicit section is found.
. avoid showing the top(1) man page for nonexistent info files.
* install-info:
. new options --section-regex, --remove-exactly, --debug, --test.
* Distribution:
. autoconf 2.60, automake 1.10, gettext 0.16.1.
. gettext support now [external].
. new translations: hu (Hungarian), rw (Kinyarwandan), vi (Vietnamese).
. most common sources imported from gnulib.
4.10 (omitted)
4.9 (29 June 2007)
* GPLv3.
* texi2dvi:
. new mode --build=tidy which supports compilation in a separate
directory, where intermediate files are preserved.
. new option --build-dir, to specify where the tidy build will take
place, either locally or globally. This allows avoiding the clutter
while preserving auxiliary files.
. new support for AUC-TeX: texi2dvi (weakly) supports arguments a la
TeX such as `\nonstopmode\input{file.tex}'.
. new options --ps and --dvipdf, useful especially for pstricks documents.
. new option --src-specials, passed to TeX.
* texinfo.tex:
. Latin1, Latin2, Latin9, and UTF-8 are supported -- only as well as
the Computer Modern fonts can manage, which means primarily English
and western European languages, to a limited extent.
. png and jpg images supported in pdf output.
. new Russian, Serbian, and Ukrainian translations for texinfo.tex:
txi-ru.tex, txi-sr.tex, txi-uk.tex.
. section names with \ characters work properly in pdf outlines.
. have .toc files use @ as the escape character, instead of \.

end = buffer - linebuffer->buffer;
Well, if the compilers were more intelligent, they could have seen that
(buffer == linebuffer->buffer) was an invariant and that the resulting
difference was therefore always zero, and zero can be converted into any
pointer type. ;)
PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
(a) to generate a new tempory file name -> O_EXCL logic applies here
(b) to regenerate the name of an older temporary file for removal
-> don't create or even open the file here, just remove it.
Discussed with salo@.
4.8 (31 December 2004)
* Language:
. new command @euro for the Euro currency symbol, and
@documentencoding has some support for ISO-8859-15.
. new command @abbr for general abbreviations.
. new command @slanted to typeset text in a slanted font,
and @sansserif to typeset in a sans serif font.
* makeinfo:
. An empty first argument to cross-reference commands, such as @xref,
causes an error. This change was made in 4.1, but not mentioned in NEWS.
. HTML output:
- <a name="..."> constructs are added for the old-style
conversion of node names to HTML names, so that external references
to them can continue to work.
- "g_t" prefixed to targets for node names beginning with a
nonletter, for XHTML compatibility.
. Docbook output: recognize more image formats.
* texi2dvi:
. new option --recode, to call recode for input character translation.
* Distribution:
. new convenience script texi2pdf, equivalent to texi2dvi --pdf (from tetex).
[not installed by package to avoid conflicting with teTeX-bin]
. some cross-compiling support in configure && make.
. new configure option --disable-install-warnings, for TeX.
distributions which do have the files installed.
. automake 1.9.4.
"documentation".
(I would also like to see this moved to sysutils category
or sysutils added to CATEGORIES and also change COMMENT to
"GNU info documentation utilities".)
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
4.7 (9 April 2004)
* Language:
. new commands @float, @caption, @shortcaption, @listoffloats for
initial implementation of floating material (figures, tables, etc).
Ironically, they do not yet actually float anywhere.
. new commands @docbook, @ifdocbook, @ifnotdocbook for conditional Docbook.
. new commands @ordf{} and @ordm{} for Spanish feminine/masculine ordinals.
. new commands @deftypecv[x] for class variables in typed OO languages.
. new command @registeredsymbol for the r-in-a-circle symbol.
. new command @headitem to make a heading row in @multitable.
. new command @LaTeX{} for the LaTeX logo.
. new command @comma{} to avoid comma-parsing problems.
. @url is now a synonym for @uref; new command @indicateurl has the
old meaning of just displaying a url as text.
. @quotation now accepts an optional argument for labelling the text
as a `Note', `Tip', etc.
. @defun (et al.) heading lines can now be continued with a lone @.
. @acronym accepts an optional argument for the meaning of the acronym.
* makeinfo:
. New environment variable TEXINFO_OUTPUT_FORMAT determines the output
format at runtime, if no options are specified.
. New option --plaintext, equivalent to --no-headers with Info output.
. All outputs:
- sections are numbered by default.
. Info output:
- punctuation is inserted after @pxref and @ref, if needed to make
cross-references valid.
- line numbers included in index menus, so Info readers can go to
the exact line of an entry, not just a node. Also in plaintext output.
- ^@^H[index^@^H] cookie included in index menus, so Info readers
can handle the ] etc. commands better.
. HTML output:
- new algorithm for cross-references to other manuals, for maximum
portability and stability.
- include node name in <title> with split output.
- @multicolumn fractions become percentages.
- entities used for bullets, quotes, dashes, and others.
- index entries are links to the exact locations.
- <h4> and <h5> used for @sub and @subsubsections again.
- accented dotless i supported.
. XML output: many new tags and structure to preserve more source features.
. Docbook output:
- upgraded DTD to Docbook XML 4.2, no longer using Docbook SGML.
- improved translation in general, for instance:
- line annotations and marked quotations.
* texi2dvi:
. if available, use etex (pdfetex if --pdf) by default.
. if the input file includes thumbpdf.sty (for LaTeX), then run thumbpdf.
. more output if --debug.
* texinfo.tex:
. @defun names are now printed in typewriter (instead of bold), and
within the arguments, @var text is printed in slanted typewriter.
. @tex code is executed inside a TeX group, so that any changes must
be prefixed with \global (or the equivalent) to be effective. (This
change was actually made years ago, but never made it into the NEWS.)
* info:
. new option --where (aka --location, -w) to report where an Info file
would be found, instead of reading it.
. by default, output ANSI terminal escape sequences as-is; new option
--no-raw-escapes overrides this.
. use the newly-generated index line numbers.
* Distribution:
. new script gendocs.sh (not installed), for use by GNU maintainers in
getting their manuals on the GNU web site. Documented in
maintain.texi (http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain_toc.html).
. Most code uses ANSI C prototypes, to some extent.
. New translation: nb.
. automake 1.8.3, autoconf 2.59, gettext 0.14.1.
configure picks up termcap.h from devel/ncurses, and later tries to
use it and fails.
allows this package to be built while devel/ncurses is installed.
for a terminal library.
[in an ideal world, ncurses wouldn't even be listed, but according
to the comments in configure.ac, some Linux distributions don't have
libcurses, only libncurses, so it should stay.]
fixes a problem when building with an external gcc, since gcc, when
installed into /prefix, unconditionally searches /prefix/lib for
libraries at link time causing it to find libncurses in /prefix/lib
(the normal gcc ugliness). this leads to the runtime linker being
unable to find libncurses.
noted by gavan@, fix tested by gavan@ and myself.
to maintain conistency of the generated files as currently required
by pkgsrc.
bump PKGREVISION.
(perhaps info files will be automatically added to the PLIST in the
future?)
4.6 (10 June 2003)
* Language:
. new command @/ specifies an allowable breakpoint within a line.
. new command @dofirstparagraphindent to control whether the first
paragraph following a section heading is indented. Default is to
omit this indentation, unlike the output up to now.
. new command @indent for explicitly indenting a paragraph.
. makeinfo writes a new construct for @image in Info output, so that
graphical Info browsers (such as Emacs Info under X) can display an
actual image. (Standalone Info ignores this, since it runs in a tty.)
* makeinfo:
. Common:
- search for image files in the include file search path.
- warns if @value is used on an undefined variable.
. Info output:
- default --split-size now 300,000 bytes, up from 50,000.
- with --enable-encoding and a given @documentencoding,
output a Local Variables section specifying that encoding, for use
with Emacs.
. HTML output:
- uses <h3> at the smallest.
- a few css <style> definitions are included to better
implement @format, @display, @small..., etc.
- new option --css-include=FILE includes FILE in the <style>.
- @cartouche now outputs a <table> with a border.
* texinfo.tex:
. new Polish translation txi-pl.tex.
* texi2dvi:
. --command=CMD replaces --texinfo=CMD; it inserts CMD at the first
line of LaTeX files now, or after the @setfilename for Texinfo files.
* info:
. RET now goes to the nearest xref (rather like Emacs Info),
instead of the next xref starting on the current line.
* Distribution:
. new Romanian (ro) translation.
. variables now declared const where appropriate.
. gettext 0.12.1, automake 1.7.5.
4.5 (4 February 2003)
* info:
. a bug in 4.4 prevented compressed info files from being found.
* Distribution:
. detect sys/ptem.h on Solaris.
4.4 (31 January 2003)
* Language:
. The ' (ASCII apostrophe/right quote) character is finally allowed in
node and anchor names. Thus, after installing this texinfo.tex,
existing .aux files will cause errors! Remove them and rerun TeX to
generate good ones.
. @value constructs are now expanded in the filename arguments to
@include and @verbatiminclude.
* makeinfo:
. bug fix: @copying text is now reflected in tag table positions;
before, nodes may not have been found with a long-enough @copying.
. bug fix: html @verb arg is quoted properly, and does not imply
a paragraph break.
* texinfo.tex:
. @smallexample and the like now output in a smaller font (9pt) in all
paper formats, not just @smallbook and @afourpaper.
. new translation txi-tr.tex.
. bug fix: <>| and other characters do not disappear when they are
first on a line in @verbatim.
* install-info:
. bug fix: don't translate the `* Menu' info keyword.
* info:
. CTRL-H is treated like DEL in incremental search.
. arrow keys once again work in isearch contexts under Solaris.
* infokey:
. use .info key bindings before defaults.
. allow prefix keys to be disabled.
* Distribution:
. update to GNU FDL 1.2 (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.html).
. getopt and other common library files updated from gnulib
(http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnulib/).
. autoconf 2.57, automake 1.7.2.
