CatDVI v. 0.13 -*- Text -*-
==============
This is a DVI to plain text converter. The current version is a work
in progress; it may not be robust enough for production work, although
it does work fine for simple linear-text DVI files, and now even for
some more complex DVI files.
Please refer to the man page (man -l ./catdvi.1) or its plain text version,
catdvi.txt, for a discussion of what currently works and what doesn't.

Compiling and Installing CatDVI
-------------------------------
You need a hosted ISO C (1990) environment (almost every moderately modern
C compiler + toolchain should do) and the kpathsea library (included
with e.g. teTeX).
Detailed instructions are in INSTALL.
I want CatDVI to be as portable as possible, but can test it only under
GNU/Linux on x86. If you had to make changes to make it work on your
platform, please let me know. Code implementing font search without the
kpathsea library is also welcome.
Release Notes
-------------
New since v. 0.12:
- New font encoding `LaTeX symbols'.
- Three new font encodings offering the European currency symbol:
+ Henrik Theilings European currency symbol (`eurosym') font
+ TS1, the encoding of the TeX text companion fonts
+ Martin Vogels symbol (`MarVoSym') font
- New output encoding ISO-8859-15, which offers the Euro symbol.
- The --output-encoding option now accepts descriptive names (but still
understands encoding numbers as well).
- Some bug fixes.
A brief summary of differences from older version can be found in NEWS,
and the full revision history is kept in ChangeLog.
The added font encodings use a few new Unicode characters introduced in
version 3.2 of the Unicode standard. As Unicode 3.2 was (at the time of
writing) released only a few days ago, these new characters may not yet
be available in current fonts and text processing software. Apart from that,
catdvi is still at Unicode 3.1. More adaptions to Unicode 3.2 are planned for
the next catdvi release.
