I suspect that commit you see relates to the work we are doing on UEBFor a description of the software, to download it and links to
math at APH. We are attempting to have a common linear format for
communicating math to LibLouis from applications and this probably will
mean you will need a semantic action file to work with it for the UEB to
work properly with LibLouisUTDML. having just cloned the LibLouisUTDML
repository I do not see such a semantic action file. I attach a semantic
action file I wrote sometime ago when creating the linear format so that
I could test the LibLouis tables as I made the modifications.
In addition we have added support for this common linear math format to
the Nemeth tables, so hopefully you should also be able to use the same
semantic action file also for Nemeth. However should you want to still
continue using the old nemeth.sem file for Nemeth then I think we left
the rules supporting that semantic action file in the tables.
Regards
Michael Whapples

That's great to hear. Thanks to Bookshare and Paul Wood.
Do you or anyone else know the status of UEB math with these changes?
Is it ready for prime time?
After the LibLouis 3.0 release, I see a significant commit for two UEB
tables and one Nemeth table:
"Brought over Whapples' math updates from mrg_ueb_update."
https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/commit/388e0ff1ffbba3fbfbd7d92dec7168a0a80af89f
<https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/commit/388e0ff1ffbba3fbfbd7d92dec7168a0a80af89f>
My guess is that it would be very good to grab this update to 3.0.
Anyone disagree?

Hi Neil,
liblouisutdml has been updated to use liblouis 3.0 by Bookshare
and Paul Wood. i don't know if the changes have been
pushed to the repository. You can clone the repository with the
following command.
git clone https://github.com/liblouis/liblouisutdml.git
<https://github.com/liblouis/liblouisutdml.git>
APH is using a replacement for liblouisutdml, so they aren't
keeping track of the original.
