[LaTeXila] [ANNOUNCE] LaTeXila 2.2.0



Hello,

After three weeks of string freeze, LaTeXila 2.2 is out!

Many thanks to all contributors and translators.

Since the 2.0 version, there are two big improvements:

1) There are more build tools (to compile, convert and view a document).  
   Latexmk is used by default instead of Rubber (but Rubber is still 
   available). And the "low-level" commands such as pdflatex, dvipdf, 
   bibtex, … can also be used.

   When a problem occurs during a document compilation, it's easier to 
   diagnose it with Latexmk than with Rubber, since there are more 
   information.

   For more details, read the new documentation (Help -> Contents).

2) In the side panel, there is now the document structure: a list of 
   chapters, sections, figures, tables, labels, etc etc to easily 
   navigate in the document.

   Some actions can be performed on a structure item, such as cut, copy, 
   delete, comment, shift left or shift right. Shift left/right can be 
   applied only on sections. For example, you have a big section, and 
   you want to transform it into a chapter. That's the shift left.  
   Obviously, all sub-sections become sections, etc.

   But even with the structure, for a big document it can be difficult 
   to find some items. That's why there are also "simple lists" at the 
   top. You can display a simple list of only one type of items, for 
   example only the labels. If you click on a label in the simple list, 
   the corresponding item in the complete structure will also be 
   selected, and the document's cursor is at the line where the label 
   is.


There are also a lot of other little improvements and bug fixes. For 
more details, see the NEWS file.

Some notes:
- There is a script to migrate the dconf settings from the 2.0 version 
to the 2.2 version: data/migrate-dconf-data.sh

- To compile LaTeXila, ITS Tool is now required.

- The tarball contains the C code generated, but the "releases-*" Git 
branches have been removed.

Cheers,
Sébastien
