[Texmacs-dev] New testing versions of TeXmacs based on the current SVN version

[Liza Belos]

Hello everyone,

We have a new nightly build for TeXmacs available at : https://ftp.texmacs.org/TeXmacs/dev/testing/20240814/ .

What's new ?

• The Windows version is now 64 bits and uses the latest version of Qt 6. It now supports wide strings for filename (for example, filename with Japanese characters). However, high DPI screens (2k and 4k) on Windows are not well-supported (pixelated characters).
  
• The Mac versions are also using Qt6. However, they work only from macOS Big Sure.
  
• The AppImage still uses Qt5, but we are working on a Qt6 version.
  
• These builds use a new fork of Guile, named Guile TeXmacs available from svn : svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/texmacs/trunk/guile-texmacs . This version supports Windows 64, and Android.
  
• We also fixed a lot of bugs !

All your comments are welcome !

Liza
