- A rest argument (a list's or a table's items) now strips exactly ONE
leading bar -- the separator from what precedes it -- so a second one is
an empty first element: a table with an empty header corner is written
`@table |` then ` | Maskulinum | ...`. Before, every leading bar was
dropped and such a header row shifted one column left. New shipped suite
tst/rest_test.sh.
- Text written hard against a closing ]# (a period, a letter) is no longer
removed with the block; a following space or line break still is.
- sks/tns/md_to_sks.py converts inline Markdown per paragraph, so emphasis
that wraps is converted and not mis-paired; bold may contain italic;
tables are unnumbered; links to sibling .md files converted alongside
become links to their html pages; the arrow becomes @rightarrow@.
- doc/install/windows_source_install.md: Smart App Control must be off --
it blocks MSYS2's unsigned toolchain, and its Evaluation state turns
itself on later.
Also: the klammertext argtype (descriptions kept as source), txt table
wrapping and :hpos/:offset, @c between ‹ ›, txt section headings, the
ktext newline-only trim, capitalize(), and the argtype test suite.

A character written in the ^...^ mnemonic form -- ^oe^, ^zz^, ^hello^ --
used to kill ktext outright: no message, no output, and an exit status
that looked like a crash because it was one. Only the forms that happen
to spell hexadecimal digits escaped, and they were right by luck rather
than by reading. Any caret form that names no character is now a located
error that quotes what was written.
A klammer may now sit inside square brackets and braces as it already
could inside parentheses, and may be followed by the punctuation that
ends a sentence: [@i word@], {@b word@}, @i word@'s. The rule is a fixed
list of characters, because none of them can occur inside a klammer name
and so none of them is ambiguous next to a delimiter. A letter still
cannot: "x@" is the named closing delimiter, so a letter before "@" has
two readings and no rule can separate them.
The abbreviations an author writes -- the hyphen form @i-word, a klammer
glued to its neighbouring punctuation -- are now recognised as author
conveniences only. They are not applied to @@ definitions or @@@ system
commands, which are written by someone who needs no such shorthand and
whose forms are already whole.
Also fixed, each of them silent: an exported shell function in the
environment broke every @eval in the document; a line break written with
@nl was destroyed when it passed through a klammer that generates a
table, printing as \textbackslash{}newline in the finished PDF; and
"kdesc --coverage" shortened its file column by comparing the spelling of
a path rather than the path, so a klammer set reached by a symbolic link
showed a full path where its neighbours showed a short one.
New in the distribution: ref/, a small klammerset that describes the
Klammermachine's own tables in Klammertext. It currently provides the
character tables -- the diacritics and the extended Latin letters -- as
klammers that render to any target, so the documentation of what can be
written cannot drift from what the machine accepts. It is early, and
will grow.
The Klammertext taxonomy now has a section on targets, describes the
@@@klammerset system command alongside the other three, and states the
precedence of "^" -- what a caret means before a letter, a digit, a
punctuation character, and a quote, in one ordered list.
(from dev 6594c7ff8c1f)
Typographic transforms (---, quote pairs, ~) no longer touch verbatim
text: @c/@code/@source_listing content and ^'...'^ spans show exactly the
characters written. "^" before any punctuation character quotes it in
every target (the apostrophe excepted: ^' opens a literal span), with the
new :resolve option on @@@target declaring per-target renderings. The
^UUUU^ code-point form accepts 4-6 hex digits, the full Unicode range.
The html output and transform spellings are polyglot (XML-valid), in
preparation for an EPUB target. New suites: transform_test, character_test
(engine), typography_test (SKS).
(from dev 07ce5ea86a0a)
The @@@klammerset system command formally declares a klammerset — a
named, logically related group of klammer definitions — with an
operative, idempotent declaration (:requires and :files load in order
at the declaration point, relative to the declaring file). A bare
symbol given to ktext -k, kdesc --input, or :requires resolves to
x/x.k on the search path: the document's directory, then
KLAMMERTEXT_KLAMMERSETS, then KLAMMERTEXT_HOME; kdesc --klammerset
lists the available sets. sks/sks.k is the first declared klammerset,
so `-k sks` loads the SKS by name. The engine's lookup classes were
renamed *_set → *_registry to keep the two concepts apart, and the
whole C++ tree now follows standard const-correctness conventions.
tst/ gains klammerset_test.sh (18 cases).
(from dev 64b1abf23e56)
An optional argument has three values: the default (the name is absent),
the argument type's :alone value (the name is written alone), and a
written value.
:alone is declared by the argument type only, never by a klammer's
parameter declaration -- a default is what one klammer means by silence,
but a bare option name must read the same way in every klammer. The bool
type declares :alone true, which is the whole of the convention that a
bare boolean option means true; there is no boolean special case in the
engine. A type whose pattern matches running text cannot declare :alone,
since an option's value runs to the next bar or option name and would
swallow the following text.
kdesc and `ktext -m` now show [default: X] and [alone: Y] per argument
type.
In the Standard Klammer Set: @code :number becomes a bool (it was an
untyped string tested only for truthiness, so a bare :number was a
no-op); decimal_mark declares :alone comma; table_hline and table_vline
declare :alone all. The 35 bools that default false gained the bare form
for free.
Tests: tst/alone_test.sh (21 cases) joins the shipped suite.

Sync with klammertext-dev through b90b0e09:
- Argument types end to end: :python_cast values are applied (Python
@eval receives real bools/numbers/lists), argument values are
validated against their argtype patterns with the argtype's
description as the error message, argtypes can declare :default
(overridable per declaration), and parameterized type families are
supported: rest(N) casts a rest argument to an N-dimensional list
(bar-count = dimension).
- Unified indexed_range syntax (selector with parenthesized subsets,
composable mnemonic names) for table lines and spans.
- Table klammer: caption fonts fixed in both targets, :column_width /
:leading / :colsep wired, :colspan and :rowspan render (HTML
attributes; \multicolumn / \multirow), calculated cell values (:calc)
with prefix operators, display-precision semantics, :calc_format and
:decimal period|comma.
- Fonts: closed-world resolution on the Klammertext font store
(infrastructure in mac/font_store; no Google Fonts links or fetch).
Default fonts live in the top-level fnt/; additional fonts install
into KLAMMERTEXT_FONTS directories via kdesc --font (list, samples,
preview, install — classification by font metadata). CSS font family
names are quoted (digit-initial families were silently lost).
- Environment files moved from mac/env/ to the top-level env/; shell
profiles source env/runtime.env. Dead per-host variants removed.
- Container: fnt/ ships in the image; curl removed (no network use).
Curated source subset assembled by klammertext-dev's doc/make_dist.sh: the Klammermachine (mac), the Standard Klammer Set (sks), the commands (com), editor plugins and install guides (doc), a test subset (tst), and lib/bin placeholders. Builds with 'make -C com'.
