# eLyXer Changelog

This document lists all public versions, the date they were released on and the changes they contain. For more information about eLyXer visit the main page.

- 1.2.1 (2011-03-07):
  - Wish list: support for formatted references (showing the part name and number) and named references (showing the part title, equivalent to `\nameref`).
  - Wish list: include part titles in `--splitpart` navigation header.
  - Changed literal for previous page in `--splitpart`: now it’s “Prev” instead of “Previous”.
  - Bug in `--notoclabels`: removed the “.” after the part number but before the title shown in the TOC. “5. How to Make Friends” is now “5 How to Make Friends” (thanks, José Ramón!).
  - Allow `math2html` to be invoked using parameters (like `--debug`).
  - Bugs in ERT parsing: brackets `{}` are not parsed correctly across different ERTs. The TeX parser was being thrown off by escaped brackets as in `{\{\}}`, added test. Comments are ignored now.
  - Solved conflict in CSS between `.script` (used to properly layout super- and subscripts) and `span.script` (used for the script-type `\mathscr` and `\mathcal` fonts). Changed the latter to `span.scriptfont`, forcing an incompatible but unavoidable change in the CSS.
  - Forced `span.scriptfont` to be shown as italic so it’s properly displayed on Firefox.
  - Wish list: new option `--googlecharts` adds support for formula images generated using Google Charts.
  - Wish list: merged options `--toc` and `--toctarget` into `--tocfor`.
  - Wish list: options `--splitpart` and `--tocfor` (previously `--toc`) now work together. Also: the separate TOC has a link to the main page.
  - Bug in `--splitpart` combined with `--notoclabels`: unnumbered parts displayed an ugly colon as in “Next : Section”, now removed (thanks, José Ramón!).
  - Modified the spacing in formulas so that words in the mathnormal font now appear separated, as a product of variables.
  - Do not show limit symbols such as ∑ or ∫ in a larger font than the rest for inline formulas.
  - Added support for \textcircled: w⃝.
- 1.2.0 (2011-01-30):
  - Bumped LyX version support to 410.
  - Correctly create big brackets for environments with odd alignments such as matrix (thanks, Günther!).
  - Create and use big brackets for fractions and other structures, if needed.
  - Added option `--simplemath` to avoid fancy math structures: do not generate multi-line Unicode brackets or stacked limits.
  - eLyXer is now a proper Python package, instead of just a coalesced script `elyxer.py` containing everything. However only the script is installed right now.
  - Interpret TeXCode (previously known as Evil Red Text) as TeX commands and formulas.
  - Support for TeX commands `\textvisiblespace`, `\AmS`, `\parbox`, `\tag`, `\rule`, and more: , AmS.
  - Support for `\Game`: ⅁.
  - Changed the navigation header for `--splitpart` so that the left and right spans overflow (thanks, Axel!).
  - Bug in `--notoclabels`: labels such as “Figure” should be omitted in the TOC, but not in captions (thanks again, Axel!).
  - Bug in `--splitpart`: empty navigation links caused the header to look unbalanced, fixed now with a non-breaking space. Also, up link in the main page used to point to itself; now it’s an empty link (more thanks, Axel!).
  - Support for `\limits` and `\nolimits`: control if the last symbol should show limits above or below the symbol or not.
  - Bug in `\vspace`: add the vertical space after the command, not before; or at least try to.
  - Bug in `\raisebox`: parse and display the contents as text mode.
  - Wish list: do not number captions in code listings.
  - Do not install as a module (to run as `python -m elyxer`) but only as a script (to run as `elyxer.py`).
- 1.1.2 (2010-12-23):
  - Wish list: display large Unicode symbols for sums and integrals in display mode.
  - Also in display mode, place limits for commands that take them above or below the symbol, instead of to the right.
  - Support for new Flex insets: Code, MenuItem, Noun, Strong; new Argument, Phantom and line (ruler) insets; new style `\strikeout`; new LaTeX commands `\href`, `\newline`.
  - BibTeX: apply a combining function only to the following character, not to the next word.
  - Added reference format for `vpageref` (“on page #”).
  - Improved math macro parsing: optional parameters, literal parameters, single-letter parameters, parameter defaults with operations.
  - Display math cases, full-sized binomials (`\dbinom`) and array brackets using Unicode bracket pieces.
  - Change all table-type elements in formulas to spans and do the formatting in the CSS, to generate valid XHTML.
  - Support graceful degradation of fractions and roots when the CSS is not present.
  - Adjusted roots to insert the root power inside the radical symbol.
  - Adjusted nice fractions (3⁄4) to improve their appearance.

  - Changed `--forceformat` to `--imageformat` (kept the old option for backwards compatibility).
  - Wish list: added `--imageformat "copy"` to just copy images instead of converting them.
  - Wish list: added option `--embedcss "file.css"` to embed the CSS styles in `file.css` into the resulting HTML.
  - Wish list: more than one `--css` options can be added to use several CSS files.
  - Wish list: display sub- and superscript aligned vertically (as in integrals).
- 1.1.0 (2010-11-23):
  - Wish list: understand `\setcounter` in the preamble to set the number of the first Chapter or Section.
  - Generate a new `math2html.py` file with an API to convert raw LaTeX code to HTML, and a command line utility.
  - Wish list: new option `--notoclabels` to omit part labels in the TOC.
  - Wish list: make “show changes in the output” work for change tracking.
  - Solve an existing issue with Description and List layouts: correct splitting of first words when intermixing styles.
  - Show decorations using Unicode combining characters, whenever possible.
  - Support for `\dddot`: o⃛ (with combining character) and `\widehat`: ^abc (with character on top).
  - Wish list: add several options for footnote generation (align markers instead of using superscript, place markers at the bottom of the page, use symbols for markers…). Also added a generic `--footnotes` option to aggregate them all.
  - Wish list: use `ps:use-cropbox=true` in ImageMagick for PostScript and EPS images.
  - Support for dotless i and j: ı, ȷ.

  - Solved bug #31351: do not number (or add to the TOC) any document parts inside comments.
  - Also in bug #31351: the bibliography should be added to the TOC if so configured (and not inside a comment), and split into its own page with `--splitpart`.
  - Also in bug #31351: show the bibliography in regular size, not smaller than the main text as before.
  - Changed header from “Bibliography” to “References” for document classes other than book and report.
  - Solved bug #31414: bootstrap creation of `conf/config.py`.
  - Also in bug #31414: remodeled unit tests to try out Python 2.4 only if present, and to remove test files from previous runs.
  - Show the “Abstract” header only for the first Abstract layout (thanks, Yaron!).

  - BibTex: added a tag `<span class="bibcites">` around all bibliographical cites, so they can be e.g. superscripted.
  - Show footnotes as hovering text instead of as marginal notes. Make the default footnote marker a bluish superscript letter in brackets: [A][A]like this.
  - Updated `--lyxformat` to 398 (2.0alpha5); added warning if document version is bigger than that.
  - Support for `\textless` and `\textgreater`: <, >.
  - Added adjustments for better printing to default CSS.
  - Added languages “british” and “american” (which translate to plain English).

  - BibTeX: more robust parsing, specifically: correctly parse entries separated by commas. Support all TeX commands already available in math formulae.
  - Support for `\textasciitilde`: ~, `\textasciicircum`: ^ and a few other `\text…` symbols. Also, `\textrm`, `\textsf` and `\textnormal` should be working now in equations: a+roman+sans-serif+normal+b.
  - Improved support for custom horizontal and vertical spaces; absolute measures can now be used.
  - Support for sizes in table columns, figures and boxes.

  - Repaired use of `AlphaCommand`s. Decorations so defined in the configuration file appear again as a single symbol: â.
  - Added option `--lyxformat` to return the highest LyX format that eLyXer understands. Should help when integrating with `lyx2lyx`.
  - Improved TOC (table of contents) generation. Modified option `--toc` to accept an URL, and documented it.

  - Corrected equation numbering error: now all `\begin{equation}…\end{equation}` formulae are numbered. (Thanks once more, Uwe.)
- 0.31 (2009-09-27):
  - Modified image parsing code to remove dependency on Python 2.5, expurging `os.SEEK_CUR`.
  - Removed the ill-fated `elyxerconv.py` library file (but kept `io/convert.py`), see lyx-devel thread. Now the file `elyxer.py` itself can be installed as a library, and run as a module with `python -m`.; see also lyx-devel thread.
  - eLyXer was added to the Python Package Index (PyPI) starting with 0.30. Now it should be automatically registered for each release.
  - Updated documentation (user guide, `README` file) with details of distutils installation.
  - Modified single string `Container`s (`StringContainer`, `Constant`) so that they appear as empty `Container`s — should speed up postprocessing.
  - Solved bug when parsing BibTeX files with incorrect lines.
  - Modified postprocessing to correctly process lists within tables.
  - In the process refactored postprocessing completely: now instead of unconditional postprocessor stages, each stage can add a postprocessing hook. Should be faster — but is indeed a bit slower.
- 0.30 (2009-09-13):
  - Removed most comments from the final distributed file `elyxer.py`.
  - Added distutils support for cross-platform distribution. The library `elyxerconv` is added to local Python libraries.

  - Switched all options in command line help to quotes: `--title <title>` is now `--title "title"`.
  - Solved bug reported by Uwe Stöhr when reading Windows BibTeX file generated by JabRef. Now eLyXer tries several encodings for each file, initially UTF-8 and Cp1252.
  - Another bug, also reported by Uwe Stöhr, in branch selection. Added test `branches.lyx`.
- 0.29 (2009-09-08):
  - Preliminary support for BibTeX. Configurable output styles (albeit cumbersome and quite primitive).
  - Added new cite commands `citep`, `citet`, `citealt`; and reference command `prettyref`.
  - A couple of new math commands: `\ldots`, `\qquad`.
- 0.28 (2009-09-05):
  - Various fixes related to Windows integration.
  - Documented integration with LyX in the user guide.
- 0.27 (2009-06-17):
  - Units without the magnitude (the number) are working.
  - Complex roots now working, added to the math showcase.
  - Leave JPEG images untransformed instead of converting them to PNG (or at least transform them to JPEG). Read JPEG image sizes.
  - More flexible configuration options for lists of values.
  - Added `--destdirectory` option to convert images into.
  - Image conversion from a different directory (or even with absolute paths) should work now.
  - Changed the whole infrastructure for formulae parsing. More structured parsing should now be possible, e.g. square brackets are first-class citizens.
  - Implemented nice fractions: 7⁄8.
  - Redid basic typography: default font is now sans-serif, which looks better on your average browser. Formulae have a bit more space around.
