fc.bug v1.5a of 1-JUN-2004
(C) Copyright 1992--2004 J"org Knappen
f c. b u g
Created 28-DEC-1992
This file documents bugs and changes in the fc fonts for aFrican languages
which occurred after the date of starting this file. It contains three
sections:
1. METAFONT-files
2. TeX-files
3. other files (Documentation etc.)
and an Appendix
A. List of files with version number and date
Notation:
** #n. fixed bug
!! #n. known bug, not fixed (so called feature)
1. METAFONT files
!! 1. The ogonek does not work in several modes, especially im small sizes
or at low resolutions. (fcaccent.mf)
** 2. For italic fonts, the f-ligatures are still misssing. Hope, I find
the time to add them soon. (fcilig.mf) Added 17-NOV-1994.
** 3. b-fcsstt.mf calls now c-fcsstt.mf instead of c-cmsstt.mf.
Renamed c-cmsstt.mf to c-fcsstt.mf. (28-DEC-1992)
** 4. Added more parameter files to make the system complete (6-MAY-1993)
!! 5. The fc fonts should have included a `dotless i with dot below' for
further accenting. Since the fc encoding scheme is fixed, this
cannot be cured. However, the necessary code was added to
lowerij.mf and italij.mf to have it available on demand.
** 6. Computing larger sizes caused an arithmetic overflow in b-fccsc.mf.
Fixed by reducing some fractions.
** 7. Corrected error concerning \~\i in monospaced fonts (lowerij.mf)
(8-MAY-1993).
!! 8. With the mode for the HP laserjet, the explicit space sign [32]
causes an error in 5pt size for several parameter sets. The error
causes no visible damage.
*! 9. With the hefty parameter sets b-fcssbx, b-fcsibx, b-fcsstt, and
b-fcsitt, the following characters show up errors:
Capital letters hooktop B, hooktop C, hooktop D, hooktop K, hooktop P,
and hooktop T (quite frequently),
lowercase ipa gamma [166] and round v [174] only with ssbx and sibx
in some small sizes.
Makro |left_hook| in fcmacros.mf redone, fixing the errors on
hooktop B, D, P, and T (6-OCT-1996)
!! 10. With the b-fcitt parameters, the italic lower ezh [182] shows up an
bad position error for some sizes (12, 7, 5).
Remark: The bad (pen)pos-erros in Capital Hooktop C, Hooktop K,
ipa gamma, round v and italic ezh don't cause any visible harm.
** 11. Corrected silly typo in lowerij.mf (Reported by Ron Whitney
20-JUN-1993)
** 12. Lowercase hooktop d had a serif even in sans serif faces. Corrected
21-JUN-1993.
** 13. Changed the ligtables to contain the following ligatures:
For all fonts: "-""hyphenchar" -> "hyphenchar"
For monospaced fonts: "-""-" -> "n-dash" (looks identical to "-")
Both changes were originally proposed by Alan Jeffrey for T1 (Cork)
encoded fonts. (15-NOV-1994)
** 14. Redesigned en-dash and em-dash to look like hyphen in monospaced
fonts. (15-NOV-1994)
** 15. b-fccsc.mf loaded fcttligt.mf instead of fcscligt.mf. (15-NOV-1994)
** 16. The letter var_u (round v) looked very spindly on its upper right.
This was caused by a side effekt of |sloped_serif.l| on |vbulb|.
Cured by commuting two lines in the programme. (17-NOV-1994)
** 17. Added font_coding_scheme:="African Latin (fc)" to coding.fc.
(18-NOV-1994)
** 18. Since the italic ligatures are now ready, I added them to the
ligtable fcitligt.mf. (18-NOV-1994)
** 19. Added t_esh_lig to the ligtable of f-like characters which need
antikerning against apostrophes. (25-NOV-1994)
** 20. By mistake, t_esh_lig occurred twice in the ligtable. Corrected
6-OCT-1996
** 21. The change mentioned in mf/3 did not make it to the archives.
Corrected 6-OCT-1996
** 22. The macro zero_width was missing in the compound word mark, leading
to wrong pk files.
** 23. I gave the compound word mark x_height in order to increase its
functionality (6-OCT-1996)
** 24. Renamed the file coding.fc to fccoding.mf in order to make
producing of CD-ROMs like the TeX life CD easier. Subsequent
changes to some other files.
** 25. The height of the compound word mark should be given in
sharp dimensions (12-MAR-2004)
** 26. There is a nasty bug in the capital letter EZH, causing a
"Value too large" error in really high res mode (2540 dpi).
Closer inspection shows a very strange formula for z97 to be
changed (12-MAR-2004)
** 27. Bug 26 applies also to the lower ezh. Found by Werner Lemberg.
(6-APR-2004)
2. TeX files
** 1. The \sfcodes were missing for the upper 128 characters. Fixed in
version 1.1b of fclfont.sty. (24-NOV-1992)
** 2. Added the definition of \$ and \pound of the NFSS to fclfont.sty.
This is redundant at the moment, but may not stay so. (28-DEC-1992)
** 3. Corrected several typos in fcuse.sty (29-DEC-1992)
** 4. Reworked fontdef.fc in the stile of fontdef.sau and gave it a more
compact shape. Added the new fonts. (7-MAY-1993)
Note that in deviation from the NFSS for cm fonts, typewriter is
handled as a weight rather than a family. The reason lies in the
existence of the sans serif typewriter fonts in the fc font
package.
** 5. Inserted appropriate changes in fclfont.sty (definition of \ptt and
\ttdefault).
** 6. Added \r for ring above accent to fclfont.sty (8-MAY-1993)
** 7. Fixed math mode bugs in fcuse.sty (8-MAY-1993)
** 8. Added +v as an alternative to +u in fcuse.sty. Removed bogus
definition of +h. (8-MAY-1993)
** 9. \l printed as \L with fclfont.sty. (12-NOV-1994)
** 10. Renamed the NFSS1 specific file fclfont.sty and fontdef.fc to
fclfont.sty_old and fontdef.fc_old. These two files are now obsolete
and frozen.
** 11. Added support files for LaTeX2e: fclfont.sty, T4enc.def, T4cmr.fd,
T4cmss.fd, T4cmtt.fd, T4fcr.fd. (11/12-NOV-1994)
Note that the new fclfont.sty is incompatible with fclfont.sty_old.
** 12. Unfortunately, the idea of using \~{\m E} for open E with Tilde
did not really work with LaTeX2e. Therefore, a new control sequence
\T was assigned for the four provided modified letters with tilde
(E,e,O,o). (T4enc.def, 15-NOV-1994).
[The argument above is no longer true, LaTeX2e now allows kerning
and ligature building everywhere. Remark added 6-OCT-1996]
** 13. The protection mechanism of LaTeX2e currently inhibits kerning and
ligature building at some places. Added therefore \tsh to produce
the t-esh-ligature. (T4enc.def, fc.rme, 22-NOV-1994)
[The argument above is no longer true, LaTeX2e now allows kerning
and ligature building everywhere. Remark added 6-OCT-1996]
*! 14. The file fctugbot.tex does no longer run with recent versions of
ltugboat.{sty,cls}. So you'll have to fix any problems yourself.
** 15. The polish \l was still wrong, printing `ffll'. Corrected
6-OCT-1996
** 16. T4enc.def should be named t4enc.def 1-JUN-2004
** 17. A bunch of LaTeX commands aren't right in T4enc.def (Reported
by Frank Mittelbach in 2000). Renovated t4enc.def completely on
1-JUN-2004. New commands added: \I for the single universal accent
and \TSH to produce capital T-ESH-ligature.
** 18. Added a new file t4phonet.sty providing some of the text commands
from the tipa package for the T4 encoding.
** 19. The command \texttt did not work with fclfont.sty. Added it.
1-JUN-2004
3. Other files
** 1. Added b-fcsstt.mf, c-fcsstt.mf, and fcscligt.mf to the filelist in
fc.rme (28-DEC-1992)
** 2. Removed Appendix B (list of files) from fc.rme. Corrected some
typos in fc.rme. Updated the address of the Stuttgart server in
fc.rme (8-MAY-1993).
** 3. Updated the GNU licence to version 2
** 4. Updated the file fc.rme (12-NOV-1994):
-- Point to the CTAN ftp servers
-- Completely rewrote section IV (updated to LaTeX2e)
-- Added the input suggested by T4enc.def to Appendix A
*! 5. German Postcodes have changed, the University of Mainz has now
the Postcode D-55099 Mainz. This change will be applied to any
file, if there is something to change in it. Ignore the old postal
code in older files.
** 6. Added \copyleft to Appendix A of fc.rme. Did some stilistic and
orthographic corrections (13-NOV-1994).
** 7. Added the file fctugbot.tex which is the source for the publication of
the fc fonts in TUGboat V14 N2 to the distribution.
** 8. Updated fc.rme according to #12 of TeX file bugs.
** 9. Updated fc.rme according to #13 of TeX file bugs.
*! 10. My adress has changed, currently it is
J\"org Knappen
Dieselstra\ss{}e 13
66123 Saarbr\"ucken
Allemagne
Note that if you write to that address and expect a reply to add
(a) a pre-stamped and self addressed envelope, if writing from
inside germany
(b) a suitable amount of international reply coupons else.
I also give my e-mail address joerg.knappen@uni-mainz.de,
tho I don't know how long it will last.
Inside the files, you may find other addresses, please ignore them.
** 11. Updated fc.rme: Corrected typos, list of CTAN archives, other minor
points.
** 12. Added a T4-to-UCS correspondence table to fc.rme, giving Unicode
points for the characters in the fc fonts.
