Contents of README:Version: 2024/1.6 SUMMARY This package offers low-level mplib integration for both plain LuaTeX and LuaLaTeX. It is designed with the purpose of being easy to extend. The use of multiple simultaneous MetaPost instances is supported, as well as running TeX or lua code from within MetaPost. With the included minim-mp format file, you can even use LuaTeX as a stand-alone MetaPost compiler. DOCUMENTATION In order to obtain the typeset manual of this package, simply say: luatex minim-mp.doc INSTALLATION In order to use minim-mp as a stand-alone metapost compiler, you will have to generate the appropriate format files. For metapost with plain tex, say luatex --ini minim-mp.ini For metapost with latex, say luatex --ini minim-lamp.ini The resulting format (.fmt) files will be found if they are either in the same directory as your metapost source file, or in ${TEXMFHOME}/web2c/luatex (the latter is of course recommended). Useful shell aliases are alias mpost='luatex --fmt=minim-mp' alias lampost='luatex --fmt=minim-lamp' HISTORY 2024/1.6 (25/3/2024) New features: * Add per-instance \everymp token lists * Reduce the number of metapost error messages echoed to the terminal. * The operators infont and glyph of now also accept font names. * Provide \mpdim to latex class. Bug fixes: * Newlines are now handled by metapost too. * As are all special characters: #$%^&_~ * Plain and luatex now use the same catcode regime. * Add the missing tex.skip macro. * Improve debugging messages. 2024/1.5 (25/2/2024) New features: * Add a luamplib compatibility mode to the latex package. * Make default format and math mode configurable. Bug fixes: * Make metafun not crash immediately. * Comments (% characters) are now handled by metapost, not tex. 2024/1.4 (5/1/2024) * Support the extended graphics state (extgstate). * Allow box resource (xform) creation directly from metapost. * Support transparency and transparency groups. 2023/1.3 (20/10/2023) * Various runscript improvements: - Supplement runscript environment with runscript-specific functions. - Provide an escape hatch for passing raw strings to lua. - Add helper macros and functions for safely passing values between metapost and lua. * File i/o from metapost code is now included in the --recorder output. * Improve font handling in minim-lamp.ini, and provide \begin{document}. * Add a minim-mp.sty package file for LaTeX users. 2023/1.2 (3/3/2023) * Add a few more metapost macros. * Various small bug fixes. 2022/1.1 (3/3/2022) New features: * Made instance initialisation more flexible; this replaces M.init_files with M.init_code (see manual). * Add support for the glyph of operator. * Add support for the even-odd rule of filling and noncontinuous paths. * Add experimental latex support (the minim-lamp format). * Make minim-mp compatible with tikz/pgf. * Expand the plain macro set slightly. Minor changes: * Improved display of metapost logs. * Redefine units to fit other numerical engines better. * Fixed a bug in pattern generation that prevented simplifying patterns into raw pdf code. * No longer write out superfluous line widths. 2021/1.0 (1/6/2021) This was the original release.
