XeTeX 0.99996

This is a modified version of the XeTeX NEWS file (which is a part of the XeTeX source code). Original: click.

XeTeX 0.99996

• Added \XeTeXhyphenatablelength primitive that sets the maximum length of word that XeTeX will attempt to hyphenate (default: 63).

XeTeX 0.99995

• Added \XeTeXgenerateactualtext primitive; bumped the DVI id byte to 7, as this uses a new opcode that requires support in the driver.

XeTeX 0.99994

• Increased character class limit to 4096.
• Added \XeTeXinterwordspaceshaping primitive.

XeTeX 0.99993 was not really "released"

But in July 2015 the version number was bumped when a new primitive was added.

• Added \mdfivesum primitive
• Removed -q from the default xdvipdfmx output-driver command line.
