Texinfo CSS version 1.0.2
Texinfo CSS is a style sheet for HTML documents generated with the GNU Texinfo system. This entry describes the changes in version 1.0.2.
I released this new version of the style sheet yesterday (tested with GNU Texinfo version 6.5). This version of the style sheet includes minor changes and a fix for an accessibility problem I describe below. You can download the style sheet from the project's website.
Style sheet name change
The style file is now called texinfo-klare.css instead of document.css to make it easier to identify.
If I find a way to specify not only the style but the complete structure of the pages of the HTML documents generated with texi2any (makeinfo), I plan to change this project, Texinfo CSS, into a whole theme called Texinfo Klare. This theme would include the following changes:
New style for menu comments
Menu comments were using the serif font family. Now they use sans-serif and a thin bottom border to separate sections in the menu (see Figure 1).
Figure 1. Comparison of menu and link styles between a document generated with version 1.0.1 of the style sheet (back) and a document generated with the current version (front).
Change of link color
The contrast between link color and document backgrounds is higher now to conform to accessibility level AA of the WCAG 2.0 (see Figure 1).
Project source files changed location
The source files are managed in a new repository now. The previous repository still exists, but it has a retirement warning that links to the new location.
