package.

Version: 2.8 2025-11-22 License: lppl1.3c

Summary description: Draw ASCII art of animals saying a specified message

Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

This release fixes two bugs which were introduced by changes in the kernel in 2025-06-01 and 2025-11-01.

- `tail-symbol` wasn’t using the correct category codes if the symbol was a letter since `ltcmd`’s `v`-type no longer sets all category codes to 12.

- `\AddColoredAnimal` wasn’t working due to the same reason and the used regular expression being too restrictive.
