Assembled from klammertext-dev f344a37d0f6e. The commands, the library,
the Standard Klammer Set, the reflection klammerset and the Python
binding build and run natively on Windows (MSYS2 UCRT64 gcc, python.org
Python), and both test tiers pass there. doc/install/windows_source_install.md
is the fifth install guide: a source install parallel to the Linux and
macOS ones, verified by following it on a pristine Windows 11.
Behaviour on every system: paths Klammertext prints use forward slashes;
output is LF; the command line is UTF-8 on Windows; @eval :shell is a
POSIX shell command everywhere -- on Windows it runs the sh Klammertext
ships, BusyBox for Windows (win/busybox/, GPLv2, with its licence and the
source pointer). KLAMMERTEXT_FONTS and KLAMMERTEXT_KLAMMERSETS are lists in
the system's PATH convention (';' on Windows). On Linux and macOS nothing
observable changes.
Assembled from klammertext-dev daad6273483a. The font-store listing is
rendered from ref/ (one table per search directory, in search order,
with the styles each typeface holds); the search path is described,
not validated, so a KLAMMERTEXT_FONTS directory that does not exist --
the default ~/.klammertext/fonts on a fresh install -- is a row saying
so and the command exits 0. A typeface an earlier directory also holds
is marked shadowed, with the winning directory, in a column present only
when needed. The store's layout convention has one reader,
fonts_in_directory(). Six kdesc suite cases pin the listing.
kdesc --katoms is Klammertext rendered from ref/, the types in titled groups,
with --katoms full for the regex column. @table :leading L is L lines of the
surrounding text in html as in pdf (default 1), and :rulesep spaces the
horizontal rules. The html table has one style attribute, so :column_width
fractions take effect again. @code and @source_listing render in plain
text; captions are numbered per kind there, and a table needs no blank line
around it. @c takes :nd, and an option-shaped word before a bar inside
literal code is code.

Section headings under txt are numbered inside a @document only; @typeface
gains :middle and :lift and its :scale now means the same in html and
pdf; NewGardinerOmni ships (OFL 1.1, Mark-Jan Nederhof) and @egyptian /
@chinese replace @cjk; @table :leading and :colsep reach html; kdesc
--typeface help names the flag; @document.txt is a Python class.

Since the previous release: Machine::read_string() (the fs::path/std::string
overload pair split); kdesc -c and -u rendered from the ref/ reflection
klammerset; a fit column's tex width measured in TeX over every entry;
@typeface resolving to the family its css declares (a store directory name
now works in html) and hieroglyphs in @unicode_examples set in their
typeface; the ansi target -- plain text with the type styles a terminal can
show, identical to txt once the escape sequences are stripped -- with the
txt @table carrying :header_style, :style and :hline; @block anchoring,
@table spacing and the Image_quality state variable; and the rewritten
doc/klammertext_for_llm.md.
A run of Unicode code points now needs one pair of carets, not one pair
each: ^9053 53EF 9053^ renders the characters adjacently, and a single
character inside such a run stands for itself. An invalid code point is
an error naming the position that wrote it, rather than an apology
rendered into the finished document; noncharacters are refused alongside
surrogates; and a code point that lands on a Klammertext special is safe
through the re-reads that assemble a document. The character tables now
produce the precomposed form, so a diacritic written as ^a" and one typed
directly are the same text to a search or a copy-paste.
"kdesc -u" describes how to write a Unicode character, with tables of
glyphs beside the codes that produce them. It is new and not yet
complete: it predates the sequence form and the typeface klammer below.
A typeface and a style are no longer both called "font". A typeface is a
family resolved by name; a style code is the one letter naming a type
style. So @document takes :serif_typeface and its siblings, a table takes
:style, captions take :caption_style and :caption_size, the uniform scale
is :text_scale, and the command is "kdesc --typeface". This renames
arguments a document may already use; an old name is a located error
rather than a silent omission.
@typeface sets a passage in another typeface for the length of that
passage:
@typeface Noto Sans Egyptian Hieroglyphs | ^132AA 133CF^ :scale 1.5 @
Writing the klammer is the whole declaration -- the document resolves the
typeface, embeds it in what it produces, and carries its license along.
Two typefaces for scripts no text font covers now ship with Klammertext:
Noto Sans Egyptian Hieroglyphs and Noto Sans Cuneiform. Every typeface in
the distribution now carries its license file.

A snapshot of the development tree. The substantial changes since the last one:
COMMAND OUTPUT POLICY. The three commands display text in exactly three cases,
and each owns a stream: LOGGING under "-v" greater than 0 and an ERROR before
termination go to STDERR; OUTPUT THE USER ASKED FOR goes to STDOUT. For ktext
that output is a document, so "ktext doc.kt -d | ..." is now safe -- logging
used to share the stream and land inside the document. A bare command prints
its usage and succeeds rather than failing. Colour is emitted only to a
terminal, per stream, and NO_COLOR is honoured.
"-v 1" reports every decision whose outcome you could not have read off your own
input: the klammerset that was loaded and from which file, a font's directory, a
":files" name's file, how "-o" was expanded. Higher levels are the trace.
The commands no longer warn and continue: an anomaly is an error, described with
its location. Two exceptions remain, each for a stated reason -- a condition
that is expected and temporary by design, and a judgment that is a heuristic
rather than exact.
@cond IS NOW A TRUE SPECIAL FORM, resolved at APPLICATION time rather than when
the file is read. Two consequences for a writer:
* a state variable reaches the predicate. "@@@state Flag :value true @@@
@cond *Flag* | T | F @" renders "T"; it used to see the literal "*Flag*" and
silently take the false branch. The document now behaves like a klammer
body, whose arguments are bound before its conditionals are decided.
* nothing in a discarded branch happens -- it is not read, not evaluated, not
expanded. An @eval in the branch not taken used to run anyway.
Its predicate relation is total and strict: true, True, 1; false, False, 0, and
empty; anything else is an error at the @cond rather than silently false.
@eval REACHING OUTSIDE. ":shell" and ":haskell" now keep the command's standard
error out of the document (it appears under "-v 1") and treat a nonzero exit as
an error naming what the command reported. A command that exits nonzero on
purpose -- "grep" finding no match -- says so with "|| true".
KLAMMER SETS. Several combine: "--klammersets a b c" loads all three in the
order given, sharing one namespace, with the definition modes deciding
collisions. "none" means none and may not be combined with other symbols. A
klammerset with symbol X is declared in a file X/X.k, which is what lets two
sets require the same third set without loading it twice.
TESTS. Four new suites: the kdiag command's interface, the @eval primitive's
contract with the outside world, and verbosity at both tiers. Three suites
that could not run on macOS at all now do.
Assembled from dev commit 6c8ee6c22fca.
kdesc gains --coverage, which reports for every klammer the set of targets it
can render to, and — the point of it — which klammers' coverage cannot be
derived and must therefore be declared. Three rules: coverage is DERIVED
where the definitions determine it (a general body of klammer calls covers
the intersection of what those klammers cover, by a greatest fixpoint after
loading), DECLARED where the engine cannot interpret what decides it (an
@eval body, whose targets are undecidable), and UNKNOWN where nothing is
written — which never means "deliberately unavailable".
Two new spellings in a definition's name. A comma-separated target list,
"@@table.html,tex :: ...", gives one body several targets; it is surface
syntax, expanded at registration, and each member goes through the
redefinition rules on its own. And "@@date.* :: ..." writes the general
target out, asserting that the klammer works for EVERY target including ones
not yet defined — a stronger claim than a list of the targets defined today,
and the one target declaration that could be mechanically falsified.
The Standard Klammer Set was swept accordingly: it now has no general
definitions at all, every klammer names the targets it serves, six use ".*",
and tex and pdf are at zero undecided.
kdesc's flags are reorganised on two rules: a flag reached for often gets a
single letter (-k klammers, -t targets, -c characters, -i input), a more
specialised topic a multi-letter name (--argtypes, --katoms, --rewrite,
--optionsets, --coverage, --klammerset, --font); and -v says how much to show
about PROCESSING, never what the RESULT contains — so the katom regex column
is "--katoms full" and the coverage detail "--coverage all". NOTE: "-k" now
lists klammers (optionally filtered by a name/description search); the katom
table moved to "--katoms".
Fixes carried along: an option written with no value crashed the command with
SIGSEGV instead of reporting the mistake; two required positional arguments
never parsed; kdesc and kdiag printed an error and exited 0; and definition
diagnostics counted registrations rather than what was written, so one line
could be reported as two definitions and then printed twice.
Four new test suites: target_list, coverage, command_option, kdesc.
