CTAN update: babelbib 1.11
by CTAN Announcements 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

On Sun, 12 Jun 2005, Harald Harders submitted a new version of the babelbib package to CTAN. License: LPPL Location: CTAN/biblio/bibtex/contrib/babelbib >From the README: This package enables to generate multilingual bibliographies in cooperation with babel. Two approaches are possible: Each citation may be written in another language, or the whole bibliography can be typeset in a language chosen by the user. The current version supports Afrikaans, Danish, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish. In addition, the package supports commands to change the typography of the bibliographies. Many of the standard and extended bibliography styles are available. ChangeLog: 2005/06/12 1.11 Harald Harders (h.harders(a)tu-bs.de) - Avoid some additional line breaks in author and editor names. - Switch ISBN and ISSN in bibliographies on and off (does not work for AmS style). - Remove space after txurlfont because a linebreak between url and the argument breaks hyperref.sty (which is a pity because this can lead to line-break problems with long arguments). 2005/05/24 1.10 Harald Harders (h.harders(a)tu-bs.de) - Allow different ordering of forenames and lastnames. - Protect the foreignlanguage calls (avoids problems with natbib). - Bug in Portuguese removed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the update.

A package has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should soon make its way to your favorite mirror.

Name of contribution: NCCTOOLS bundle Author's name: Alexander I Rozhenko Author's email: roj(a)front.ru Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/ncctools Summary description: Release 3.1 License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This release of the bundle contains many significant improvements listed below. Three new packages are introduced: the `ncccomma' package provides a smart comma that can work in math as an ordinary symbol or as a punctuation mark (this comma is a bit smarter than in the `icomma' package); the `mboxfill' package wraps TeX's hfill with leaders (all leader types are supported and one more case is provided --- stretched leaders); the `nccrules' package implements multiline dash rule command, dash rule fill command, and provides two commands generating new footnote rules (these rules are useful in the `manyfoot' package). In the `nccmath' package, new medium-size commands are introduced: mfrac is an intermediate fraction between dfrac and frac; mbinom is the medium-size binom; the medint and medop produce medium-size integrals and sum-like operators; mmatrix and medsize environments allow smaller matrices and formulas. In the `nccsect' package, the compatibility with the `supertabular' and `longtable' packages is provided; captions control is improved; epigraph and eforechapter hooks are introduced; StartFromTextArea and StartFromHeaderArea commands are introduced. In the `manyfoot' package, the SetFootnoteHook command is introduced. In the `dcounter' package, an existing counter can work now as a dynamic counter. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can have a look at the package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ncctools although you may get a better network connection by visiting a mirror of CTAN that is near to you; see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/README.mirrors .
