CTAN Submission -- euro.sty
by Reinhard Zierke 15 Oct '01

15 Oct '01

----- Forwarded message from Melchior FRANZ ----- I've just uploaded version 1.0 of `euro.sty' as archive === euro.tar.gz === to === ftp://ftp.dante.de/incoming/ === Please replace the contents of === /macros/latex/contrib/supported/euro/ === by the new files. The package is again licenced under the terms of the === LPPL === Changelog: - added the Greek drachma, that is joining the Euro zone since 2001/01/01. (How could these Greeks live so long without the euro.sty package supporting their currency. Could it be, that nobody is actually using euro.sty? OK, don't answer! ;-) - added a Makefile for Unix/Linux systems - version number jumped from 0.1 to 1.0, because the package can now really be considered stable. (Not a single bug report. Hmm ...!?) ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the upload. I installed it as suggested replacing the old version in CTAN:/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/euro Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team

CTAN submission -- repeatindex
by Reinhard Zierke 15 Oct '01

15 Oct '01

----- Forwarded message from Harald Harders ----- I have uploaded repeatindex.tar.gz to ftp.dante.de. It contains the package repeatindex.sty as well an an xml file for the catalogue. I suggest to put the file's contents to CTAN:/macros/latex/contrib/supported/repeatindex. License is lppl. >From the README: This Package repeats item of an index if a page or column break occurs within a list of subitems. This helps to find out to which main item a subitem belongs. Example: Main Item A, 1, 3, 6 Main Item A... Subitem a, 1 Subitem g, 1 Subitem b, 1 Subitem h, 1 Subitem c, 2 Subitem i, 1 Subitem d, 3 Subitem j, 1 Subitem d, 1 Main Item B, 3, 6 Subitem e, 4 Subitem a, 3 Subitem f, 2 Subitem b, 4 Problems: - When an item is repeated a small vertical space is included two items later - If the last item is a subitem and the only entry on the last page of the index the repeation is omitted This package has not been tested much, yet. Please help me to find more problems and if possible solutions to my problems. I have had much trouble in solving the problem that the code defined in afterpage is executed with a delay. ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the upload. I installed the new package as suggested in CTAN:/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/repeatindex/ Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team
