2.1.2 released: minor fixes and prepare for citations support
This version includes minor updates and bug fixes:
- add support for bibliographies, if we can get the pdf side to work
- this is disabled by default — the HTML side works, but not the pdf
- add today’s date option to wikiform date fields and authorplain option
- add wikiform features needed for citation forms
Once we complete the citations support, Wikipublisher will move into maintenance (bug fixes and minor enhancements) mode.
Bug fixes in the current release
- prevent php error if typesetting a trail which has no stops defined
- improve smart quote handling of prime marks, such as 6′ 4″ — issue 00100
- correct the (:typeset-trail:) handler’s use of the article template
- fix vertical space errors introduced when PmWiki changed the behaviour of vspace
Features expected in the next release
- start the process of testing Wikipublisher with the PmWiki 2.2 software series
- add support for citations in pdf output (requires pdf server and dtd enhancements)
- add support for appendices in typeset books
- improve handling of Q: and A: markup (use run-in heads)
Bugs fixed in the next release
- trap newlines in simple table cells and replace with ¶ marks — otherwise LATEX fails
- fix problem if headings are used on a trail page
- minor fix to cover the case of text on the same line as >>div<< markup
