+of improvements. Most of these are relatively minor in themsevles, but the combined result of fixing them all has led to significant improvements. We encourage all users of 2.2.2 to upgrade to this version.
-Perhaps the most important bug we fixed affected use of covington.sty with
-2.2.1. This will only have affected users of the Linguistics module.
-
-One new feature is the use of the "scaling" option when exporting images
-for XHTML. This does not work the same way as with LaTeX export. What it
-does is add something like "width: 50%" to the style attribute. This will
-ordinarily be interpreted by the browser as a percentage relative to the
-current element.
