now possible to further process Unicode converted files with document
converters such as pandoc.
- New optional argument to arbmark, either 'rl' or 'lr', to override the
contextual analysis.
- New 'color' option to 'arabverse' environment.
- Use precomposed unicode ǧ/Ǧ instead of 'g/G + caron above'

package.
Version: 1.0 2018-08-26

Summary description: Localisation support for TeX and LaTeX documents
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package uses both tracklang and texosquery to look
up the locale information from the operating system and
provide commands that can access locale-dependent infor-
mation, such as the currency symbol and decimal separator.
The file tex-locale.tex provides generic TeX code.
The LaTeX package tex-locale.sty can additionally load
babel or polyglossia with the locale's language setting,
as well as various other packages such as fontspec
(XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX) or fontenc + inputenc (PDFLaTeX).
LaTeX example:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{tex-locale}
egin{document}
Today: CurrentLocaleShortDate.
Currency: CurrentLocaleCurrency.
end{document}
TeX example:
input tex-locale
Today: CurrentLocaleShortDate.
Currency: CurrentLocaleCurrency.
ye
Note that texosquery requires the Java Runtime Environment.
See the texosquery documentation for setup instructions.
If you can't use TeX's piped shell escape, see the tex-locale
documentation for an alternative method.

Michal Hoftich submitted an update to the
make4ht
package.
Version number: 0.2c
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: A build system for tex4ht
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This release contains lot of changes:
- added support for non-ASCII characters and spaces in filenames of the
compiled files
- many ODT format fixes:
- the ODT file packing is done by make4ht itself, instead of t4ht
command
- it enables execution of filters on the generated XML files
- filter which fixes issues with Unicode is executed by default
- fixed many ODT validity issues
These fixes obsoletes the old way of conversion from TeX to ODT using
`mk4ht oolatex` - the old method may in many cases produce an invalid
ODT file. The preferred way is `make4ht -f odt` from now.
- new extension: dvisvgm_hashes
- this extension uses Dvisvgm to generate pictures in the SVG format
- it generates only pictures that have been changed between
compilations
- it can utilize multiple CPU cores for the compilation

Version number: 1.3t 2018-08-22

Summary description: Use the text font in maths mode
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This fixes the recent 1.3s bugfix... regarding the compatibility
of subdued mode with fontspec. It also fixes a very old bug
dating back to 2012 which made mathastext break under pdflatex
with a default font encoding other than OT1, T1 or LY1 when
attempting to configure the minus sign for math mode.
One breaking change: mathastext does not redefine anymore i and
j to let them be usable both in text and math mode.
