    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------


    This update fixes a critical bug where arguments of the \kakko command could overflow when using specific fonts (for example, Hiragino fonts with weights W4

    package.

    Version: 2.1.1 2026-02-17
    License: mit

    Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    In this update, the following points are changed.

    1. \period command was deleted. It has never been used since the
    significance of existence had been absolutely questionable.
    I finally decided to delete it.

    2. New package option tsumesuji was added.

    3. New command \zenkakuhabafixer was added.
    This command is similar to the \ichimoji command, but
    the vertical scaling is different.
    For further explanation for the new option and command,
    please refer to the package documentation.
