CTAN Update: xkeyval 1.9 and pst-xkey 1.3
by CTAN Announcements 16 Jan '05

16 Jan '05

On Sun, 16 Jan 2005, Hendri Adriaens uploaded xkeyval 1.9 and pst-xkey 1.3 The xkeyval package is an extension of the keyval package and offers additional macros for setting keys and declaring and setting class or package options. The package allows the programmer to specify a prefix to the name of the macros it defines for keys, and to define families of key definitions; these all help use in documents where several packages define their own sets of keys. The pst-xkey package is an adaptation of the techniques of xkeyval to the needs of the family of packages associated with pstricks, so that those packages can safely, and with relative ease, use key-value syntax in their commands. General ---------------------------------------------------------- This is the last update of the xkeyval bundle for now. I will maintain the package though when problems come up and might implement new features if there are any requests. xkeyval 1.9 ---------------------------------------------------------- 1) Added delpresetkeys and delsavekeys 2) Added file extension to default families for ExecuteOptionsX and ProcessOptionsX 3) Added a test for back linking with pointers 4) Made the running command in XKV@whilist contain last used list entry at exit and 5) Updated license information pst-xkey 1.3 ---------------------------------------------------------- 1) Updated license information ---------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the update.
