CTAN update: luamplib

Dohyun Kim submitted an update to the

                 luamplib

package.

Version:  2.37.2 2025-03-20
License:  gpl2

Summary description:  Use LuaTeX’s built-in MetaPost interpreter

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 * Formerly, it was not possible to give shading effect to a textual picture
   inside a tiling pattern. This limitation is now lifted.
   As a side effect, a tiling pattern inside a tiling pattern is also allowed.

 * 'withmppattern <string>' is a newly introduced command virtually the same
   as 'withpattern <string>', but the former does not force the result of MP
   picture. So users can use any drawing command suitable, such as 'fill' or
   'filldraw' as well as 'draw'.

 * 'textext', 'TEX', 'mplibcolor', 'mplibdimen', or 'VerbatimTeX' can accept
   a string argument without parentheses. For instance, 'textext "\TeX"' is
   now allowed as well as 'textext("\TeX")'.
