Summary description: Cache anything (TikZ, python, ...) in a robust, efficient and pure way
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fix a regression from 2.1 (it was impossible to have new commands in the cached
image) and a few bugs (`compile in parallel` was failing in MacOs, and `auto
forward` was failing in the presence of an environment).
More precisely:
- v2.1 introduced two bugs where hashes could not be used in a |\cacheMe|
environment, and |auto forward| was not working if the string was containing
an environment. This is fixed now.
- Fix issue with |compile in parallel| on MacOs (xargs there is not GNU xargs
and is missing |-a| option)
- Added `*ExpandableDocumentCommandAutoForward`.
- Added `\genericAutoForward` to forward arbitrary code.
- Added `if windows` and `if unix` tests to apply different settings, like to
disable compilation in parallel on windows.
- Added details on the future difference between `if matches` and `if matches word`
