with Herbert's agreement, i have installed this version of mathmode in
a directory of its own. users may browse the …
[View More]directory via

On Thu, 30 Jun 2005, Hendri Adriaens submitted an update to the
xkeyval
package.
This 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.

- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a Greek font I wrote in METAFONT several years ago after being
inspired by the Bodoni typefaces I had seen in the old books in my school
library. It is stylistically a little more exotic than the standard
textbook greek fonts, particularly in glyphs like the lowercase rho and
kappa. It aims for a rather calligraphic feel, but I also think it blends
well with Computer Modern.
I included a ligature scheme which automatically inserts the breathings
required for ancient texts, making the input text more readable than in some
schemes. Since it is now de rigueur to use outline fonts, I have largely
abandoned this project, but I hope someone finds it useful.

Sudoku is an environment for typesetting sudoku grids.
A sudoku puzzle is a 9x9 grid where some of the squares in the
grid contain numbers. The rules are simple: every column can
only contain the digits 1 to 9, every row can only contain the
digits 1 to 9 and every 3x3 box can only contain the digits 1 to 9.
More information, including help and example puzzles, can be found
at http://www.sudoku.org.uk. This site also has blank sudoku grids (or

Summary description: Customising captions in floating environments
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The caption package provides many ways to customise the captions
in floating environments like figure …
[View More]and table and cooperates with
many other packages.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is mainly a bugfix release of the caption package 3.0.
Changes:
- New: Support of the hypcap package (11.5.05+12.6.05+22.6.05)
- Options name=, figurename= and tablename= removed (17.5.05)
- Bugfix: ContinuedFloat added to caption* (22.5.05),
caption*[...] removed (13.6.05)
- Increased compatibility: strut=0 added to caption style `ruled' (26.5.05)
- Bugfix: Compatibility option ruled works now as expected,
this means: No singlelinecheck, no margin (27.5.05)
- Internal change to caption@ifpackage (29.5.05)
- float support rewritten, patches @float@setevery instead of
caption + caption@setfloattype, needs float.sty v1.3 (31.5.05)
- Kernel: caption@setstyle* added (1.6.05)
- New: Support of the floatrow package (1.6.05)
- Bugfix 05-03-23: Caption label separator newline changed from
ewline
to \ so justification= options work correct (11.6.05)
- Bugfix: Adaption of ContinuedFloat to hyperref package (11.6.05)
- Improvement of float package support: Skip of plaintop captions is
correct now, skip of boxed captions can be setup with
captionsetup[boxed]{skip=...} (26.6.05)
