CTAN submission -- fonts/LuxiMono
by Reinhard Zierke 30 Jul '02

30 Jul '02

----- Forwarded message from Walter Schmidt ----- I have uploaded the file luximono.zip to the /incoming directory at dante.ctan.org. Please, create a new directory fonts/LuxiMono and unpack my ZIP file there. (Do not unpack the inner ZIP file ul9.zip.) This bundle includes the free LuxiMono Type1 fonts and all required files to use them with LaTeX on the Un*x or PC platform. It is already part of the TexLive7 CD-ROM. LuxiMono is a family of general-purpose monospaced (typewriter) fonts. The Luxi fonts include the Euro symbol. Accessing it through the textcompanion encoding and the command exteuro needs at least version 9 of the PSNFSS system. The installation instructions cover any TDS-compliant TeX system, such as teTeX, MikTeX or VTeX/Free. Font mapping files are provided for dvips and pdfTeX as well as for VTeX/Free. ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the submission. I installed it in CTAN:/tex-archive/fonts/LuxiMono/ as suggested. Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team

minor faq changes
by Robin Fairbairns 22 Jul '02

22 Jul '02

a public-spirited user pointed out that one answer descended into gibberish; investigating the cause, i found a general (small) problem with the html-generation code, which i corrected. i've installed the update on http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq in the course of making the change, i spotted a small number of minuscule updates that needed doing and typos that needed correction. i've therefore also pushed the source release to ctan (help/uk-tex-faq). distribution-builders will find a copy formatted for them in the usual place.

CTAN submission -- jkthesis 1.1
by Reinhard Zierke 18 Jul '02

18 Jul '02

----- Forwarded message from Jochen Küpper ----- I have uploaded jkthesis 1.1 to CTAN. + what you've uploaded jkthesis.tar.gz + which CTAN node you've uploaded to Ftp.dante.de/incoming + where you want the files to go replace all files in CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/supported/jkthesis/ + what licensing conditions you apply to your software (see list below). LPPL + a brief summary of what your upload is intended to do. Just one more thesis class. Of course the one I like most:)) It has a German manual that hopefully describes it's usage and gives a little bit of background. This class should solve all your formatting hassles for a dissertation at a German school and give you a great looking thesis:) I am not sure how well it goes with the often more stringent (and sometimes very ugly) requirements in other countries.

CTAN package upgrade: ePiX
by Jim Hefferon 11 Jul '02

11 Jul '02

There has been a considerable upgrade on this existing package. The new version should make its way to a mirror near you in a day or two. Jim Hefferon ftpmaint(a)tug.ctan.org =========================================================================== The following information was provided by our fellow contributor. Name of contribution: ePiX Author's name: Andrew D. Hwang Location on CTAN: graphics/epix Summary description: Version 0.8.5 License type: gpl Announcement text given by the contribution's author: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Color, spline, and line width declarations have been simplified, and arbitrary-width lines are available. Text may be aligned with a reverse LaTeX-style option. Line segments may be specified by points other than their endpoints. A bug that affected drawing of arrowheads has been fixed, and the code has been cleaned up. Users are strongly encouraged to upgrade, since some of the new declarations are not backward-compatible. The package includes a script that will bring old input files into compliance with the new syntax. - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

BiBLE Package moved on CTAN
by Rainer Schoepf 11 Jul '02

11 Jul '02

The author of the BiBLE package, Kai Schreiber has clarified the license conditions, so that we can move it from the nonfree part of CTAN into the standard tree. The path is therefore now bibliography/bibtex/utils/bible For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf -------------readme.txt for bible package README.TXT for BiBLE for Windows V0.99 (15.03.2000) ****************************************************************** Before you use this software, read and understand the following: 1. BiBLE was written because I wanted a convenient way to edit my own BibTeX library. I can't and won't guarantee that it works with yours. Try it at your own risk. 2. Don't use the program on your library before you know what you're doing. Create a backup copy of your library. 3. If you find any errors or have suggestions for future versions, tell me. Maybe I'll include them. schreiber(a)genista.de 4. You may redistribute this package only as a whole with all the files unchanged. The distribution contains: bible.exe - the win32 executable bible.hlp - the windows helpfile bible.ini - initialization file test.bib - demonstration database readme.txt - this file versions.txt - the version history 5. BiBLE is free to use. 6. Read the windows helpfile. 7. The .ini-file contains the information about the possible itemtypes and their fields. If you want to add custom items, you can do so. Just add another type-name to the types=... line, and a line saying typename=x,f,f,f,f. The x is the number of required fields following, the fs are the numbers of the field in the fields=... line. If you want to add your own optional or required fields DO SO ONLY AT THE END OF THAT LINE or all the other items will get messed up. The line starting with choice= contains alternative field pairs. Don't change the first pair, as it is the only one where you can have both field values set (type inbook, fields chapter and/or pages). If you need custom fields with and/or behaviour contact me and explain why. 8. Have fun.

Admittedly, this makes the document far less attractive. Nevertheless, savetrees is a simple way to save paper when printing draft copies of a document. It can also be useful when trying to meet a tight page-length requirement for a conference or journal submission. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

CTAN submission -- MonTeXIVu, MonTeX.Type1, ui-24.def and ctib
by Reinhard Zierke 02 Jul '02

02 Jul '02

----- Forwarded message from Oliver Corff ----- Today, you'll find in the /incoming directory of ftp.dante.de the following files: 1. ctib.tar.gz The latest version of ctib, 0.6, has a greatly enhanced repertoire of glyphs and more than a dozen new ligatures (Tibetan stacks), and a lot of new punctuation symbols. More or less the whole Unicode range of symbols is covered, too. The work is based on Sam Sirlin's Tibetan fonts. Please note that upgrading to ctib 0.6 requires recompilation of old documents as the font layout has changed. ctib.tar.gz goes into CTAN:language/tibetan/ctib and replaces all previous files completely. 2. montexivu.tar.gz This latest version of MonTeX features many more Latin input encodings (all those a standard installation offers), an overhauled documentation, and, for the first time, experimental Unicode support for utf8-encoded Mongolian. Please note that upgrading to MonTeX IVu requires the presence of the utf8 input encoding system and there the file uni-24.def, containing the Mongolian plane (U+1800) of Unicode. montexivu.tar.gz goes into CTAN:language/mongolian/montex. 3. montex.type1 A collection of Type1 outline files for the Mongolian scripts of MonTeX. These allow the pleasant display of Mongolian and Manju in PostScript and PDF documents. These fonts were contributed by Apostolos Syropoulos. They should be placed into CTAN:language/mongolian/montex/contrib. A detailed README file with instructions will follow later. 4. uni-24.def The definition for plane U+1800 of Unicode, containing Traditional Mongolian. This file should go into the ../data directory of the ucs/utf8 input encoding package (I happen to ignore where this is located, unfortunately...) ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the uploads. I installed the new versions of ctib and montex in CTAN:/tex-archive/language/tibetan/ctib CTAN:/tex-archive/language/mongolian/montex as suggested. And I installed the Unicode definition file in CTAN:/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/unicode/data/uni-24.def (pending the inclusion of this file in Dominique Unruh's sources) Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team
