Sorry, we were working hard on the HTML specific version of the editor
(Amaya, AKA Tamaya) during the last month, a lot of thing have changed
and we didn't had too much time to test and release a new version of Thot.
But, we are now working on integrating back changes to Thot editor, fixing
bugs and we will release a new version within 2 weeks (I know, I already
promised a similar release a few month ago, but we didn't had time to test
seriously the changes made, so the release was not made at this time).
Please send us your comments, we will try to fix the problems. Concerning
the key remapping, it's fixed now, concerning the US-Letter format, we are
working on it, the next release should improve thing but the final solution
(having a paper format selection in the Print menu) won't be ready in the
next release.
Concerning the TeX output, we didn't investigate too much, It seems that
various incompatible versions of TeX are out, with different font naming
scheme, and we won't have the time to support more than one version. If one
of them is becoming THE standard, we would be interested if someone send us
the differences needed in the output to be conformant with the current state
of the art. As you understand, we don't have too much time so help is needed
for this kind of improvements.
Thank you all to give us some feedback,
Daniel
