2.1.0 released: adds support for wikibooks

This version starts the 2.1 cycle, to recognise the major addition for book publishing

• bring pdf styles into line with the PmWiki 2.1.11 wikistyles code¹
• add support for print options on (:typeset-page:) and (:typeset-trail:) directives
• to reduce comment spamming, (:wikilogbox:) limits the number of external links
• add support for (:typeset-book:) markup — issue 00092
  • a book template that provides chapters of various styles, with optional aphorisms and other book elements²
  • choice of font sets and paragraph separator
  • for an example, see User Guide
• add support for floating text styles — issue 00065
• add support for typesetting Poetry
• add hooks to enable download of raw L^AT_EX — issue 00082
• add support for nesting 3 heading levels per page

Bug fixes in the current release

• remove center and right styles from toc entries
• change wikiform to use a $FmtPV variable for group suffixes
• recognise the L^AT_EX entity — issue 00091
• adapt to PmWiki’s changed simple table handling
• improve handling of advanced tables
• improve handling of list spacing

Features expected in the next release

• add support for nested div markup, introduced in PmWiki 2.1.12 — issue 00093

Bugs fixed in the next release

• fix xml error in style attributes of images
• fix xml error in advanced tables with cell attributes

¹ each time wikistyles.php changes, we make a version for pdf that avoids hard-coded html tags and marks each style for later processing; PmWiki provides a version of wikistyles where all tag names are variables in 2.1.15 (↑)

² the server can generate a bibliography, but this is not yet supported in wiki markup — see issue 00062 (↑)
