Known bugs in this version:
- Very large text nodes cannot be compressed.
If the difference between the uncompressed and compressed size
of a node is more than 64K, compression fails. This is actually
not a bug in the compiler or the viewer, but rather a limitation
of the file format. This is usually not a problem unless you write
real huge text pages (i haven't seen a single file where this limit
is exceeded). It may affect hypfind however, which writes the hitlist
to a single page: if you run it to search for text which returns a
lot of hits, hcp may not be able to compile the generated file.
Such nodes will now give a warning, and are written uncompressed
to the output file.
The 64k limit does not apply to images, which use an extra field from
the index to store the missing information.
- hcp ignores the -dN option.
hcp currently accepts this option for compatibility, but does not
use it. This may change in a future version.
- hcp ignores the -bN option.
This option is not needed by the current implementation. There
is no limit on the node size other than available memory.
- when recompiling to ST-Guide format, it is almost impossible to
determine wether a link was originally specified in the source file or
generated by the auto-referencer. Symbols are therefore always marked
as "ar" when recompiling. Note also that symbols are not generated
at all if the corresponding REF-file is missing. In this case,
you will have to investigate the generated link-commands.
- Not all viewers currently support lines with arrow endings
- hypinfo.ttp is way too large (~16MB), and may not work on TOS.
Main reason is the builtin database to identify languages.
