hi there,

Star-TeX v0.7.1 is out:

• https://pkg.go.dev/star-tex.org/x/[email protected]
• https://git.sr.ht/~sbinet/star-tex

After a (very) long hiatus, development of Star-TeX has resumed. Star-TeX is a pure-Go TeX engine, built upon/with modernc.org/knuth.

v0.7.1 brings pure-Go TeX → PDF generation.

Here are examples of generated PDFs:

• https://git.sr.ht/~sbinet/star-tex/tree/v0.7.1/item/testdata
• https://git.sr.ht/~sbinet/star-tex/tree/v0.7.1/item/dvi/dvipdf/testdata

PDF generation is still a bit shaky (see #24), but it's coming from the external PDF package we are using rather than a Star-TeX defect per se.

We'll try to fix that in the next version. Now we'll work on bringing LaTeX support to the engine (working directly on modernc.org/knuth).
