liblouis-1.4.0 is now available on the downloads page at 
http://www.jjb-software.com . The principal change is the addition of 
all the tables contributed by various people on the list and the texinfo 
documentation contributed by Christian Egli. He has also assisted with a 
problem apparently caused by the large number of tables (102).

There is a new tool called lou_debug intended for use in debugging 
tables. However, it is little more than a skeleton at this time.

There is still a problem with the French contracted tables that I am 
looking for. If anyone wants to join in the bug search start with the 
function validMatch in lou_translateString.c . It could also have 
something to do with the way the tables are compiled.

Please do not use .dis files in new tables. They are obsolete. If you 
revise a table that does use a .dis file, please try to remove it. To 
get good back-translation, the space character should be the first one 
defined with a dot pattern of 0. The best examples of tables are 
en-us-g2.ctb nemeth.ctb and the tables they include.

Thanks,
John
