Add workarounds for minted bugs

[marcin-serwin]

Since version 2.7 minted is using new input processing macros which are not entirely backwards compatible. This breaks our CI since we were relying on some old behaviors. This PR adds workarounds for two bugs that prevented the book from building with the newest minted.

Fixes #90

Thanks for your work for fixing the build issue.

May I greedily ask one more question for myself?

For me I find it harder to read serif fonts on PC monitors, and I wish to follow this book's content with sans-serif font. I've read that I can use /renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault} to do that, but this project is convoluted for me. I'm not sure whether it will do, and if it will, where to put that command.

I'm trying out your patch but still got this error:

I'm trying out your patch but still got this error:

I can't reproduce it. Could you try removing pdfbuild directory from the repo and build again?

For me I find it harder to read serif fonts on PC monitors, and I wish to follow this book's content with sans-serif font. I've read that I can use /renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault} to do that, but this project is convoluted for me. I'm not sure whether it will do, and if it will, where to put that command.

The main font of the document is declared here:

lshort/src/lshort.sty

Lines 35 to 39 in 7ccacc2

	\setmainfont[
	SlantedFont=Latin Modern Roman Slanted,
	UprightFeatures={SmallCapsFont={Latin Modern Roman Caps}},
	ItalicFeatures={SmallCapsFont={LM Roman Caps 10 Oblique}},
	]{Latin Modern Roman}

If you replace these lines with \setmainfont{Latin Modern Sans} (or use other font of your liking) then most of the document will be written in sans serif. Keep in mind that some examples will still produce serif output and that there may be some issues with layout.
