<< What's new >>
- Tioga 1.13 brings in a fix for a well-hidden memory leak that was
-unlikely to hit you unless you were allocating a huge number of
-vectors.
+ Tioga 1.14 fixes all known problems of Tioga with Ruby 1.9.1 and
+higher (to the point that it runs with ctioga2, and the samples run
+too !).
- More interestingly, a few instance functions that did not depend on
-FigureMaker's internal state (color conversion functions and
-contouring algorithms) were made available as module functions too.
+ It also brings in the possibility to customize the number of major
+ticks after which log plots don't show minor ticks, via the
+log_minor_ticks_limit accessor.

Tioga 1.12 has seen quite a lot of action. The first and major
change is the switch from a custom rewrite of mkmf.rb for
building/installing to the standard setup.rb tool, which finally has
the gem version build exactly the same way as the pristine one.
