2024-07-06  Scott Pakin  <[email protected]>

       * README, mf2pt1.texi, mf2pt1.mp, mf2pt1.pl: Updated the copyright
       year to 2024.

       * mf2pt1.pl: Applied a patch from Werner Lemberg <[email protected]> that
       adds extrema later in the FontForge postprocessing script.  This
       patch originally was submitted as a LilyPond merge request
       (https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/merge_requests/2374).
       Updated the program version to 2.8.

2021-12-04  Scott Pakin  <[email protected]>

       * README, mf2pt1.texi: Updated the copyright year to 2021.

       * mf2pt1.pl:

       already exist.  Updated the copyright year to 2021.  Updated the
       version to 2.7.

       * Makefile, mf2pt1.pl, mf2pt1.texi:
       Documented that environment variables for programs can now include
       parameters.

       * mf2pt1.pl:

2020-11-27  Scott Pakin  <[email protected]>

       * ChangeLog, README, mf2pt1.mp, mf2pt1.pl, mf2pt1.texi:
       mf2pt1 no longer generates a UniqueID automatically, only when
       instructed to by the user.  This change assists with reproducible
       builds and is consistent with Adobe's declaration that unique font IDs
       are no longer required or even recommended.

       The documentation has been modified to reflect updated URLs for a
       number of external links and to reference the latest copyright year
       (2020) and mf2pt1 version number (2.6).

       Thanks to Werner Lemberg for bringing Lilypond's issues with
       reproducible builds to my attention.

2020-11-27  Scott Pakin  <[email protected]>

       * mf2pt1.pl
       Do not write a UniqueID unless explicitly requested by the user.

       `rmoveto' comment; fixed the "good" lines comment; renamed $dxm
       and $dym to $dxd and $dyd (for "denominator"); fixed the precision
