    The liblouis developer team is proud to announce the liblouis release 2.5.2.

    The release is available for download at:

         http://code.google.com/p/liblouis/downloads/list

    Introduction

    ------------

    Liblouis is an open-source braille translator and back-translator. It

    features support for computer, literary and math braille, supports

    contracted and uncontracted translation for many, many languages[1].

    It plays an important role in an open source accessibility stack and

    is used by screenreaders such as NVDA and Orca. A companion project

    liblouisutdml/liblouisxml[2] deals with formatting of braille.

    Changes in this release

    -----------------------

    While initially planned as mainly a bug fix release this release

    contains some notable new features: There is a new tool to trace which

    rules have been used to perform a translation. Also along with other

    new tables the long awaited table for UEB is finally here.

    New Features

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~

    * New tool to trace rule application

       There is a new tool (lou_trace) which helps to trace which rules

       have been used to perform a Braille translation. This is helpful

       for writing Braille tables. See the documentation[3] for more

       information.

    * New Braille tables

       - Inuktitut grade 1, thanks to Greg Kearney.

       - UEB grade 1 and 2, thanks to Joseph Lee.

       - Korean table thanks to Joseph Lee

    Braille Table Improvements

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

       - da-gk-g2.ctb, fixes for transposed â, å, æ, ä, ø and ö,

         corrected/improved harness tests.

       - Corrections for en-GB-g2.ctb thanks to Paul Wood

       - Corrections to the Hungarian grade 1 table thanks to Hammer Attila

    Bug Fixes

    ~~~~~~~~~

       - Update gnulib

       - Fix a bug in the correct opcode which causes sometimes random

         results when translating. Thanks to Bert Frees.

       - Fixes for compiler warnings.

       - Fix some Valgrind warnings about invalid reads

    Share and Enjoy!
