CTAN has a new package: galician
by CTAN Announcements 01 Feb '07

01 Feb '07

A new package has been installed at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: galician 4.3 (the galician files of the babel system) Author's name: Javier A. Mugica de Rivera Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/required/babel/ Summary description: Galician suport intended to work with babel. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the last years the babel suport for Spanish has had an important progress thanks to the work by Javier Bezos. While the programed features could be transfered almost verbatim to galician, this had not happened till now, so I decided to tackle such task. The resulting file galician.dtx is just the translation of spanish.dtx with a few changes and a couple of new features. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/language/galician . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=galician (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).

CTAN package update: CurVe

A packge has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ...................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: CurVe Author's name: Didier Verna Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/curve Summary description: A curriculum vitae class for LaTeX2e License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I am pleased to announce the next edition of CurVe, version 1.12 Cocotte[1]. New in this release: ** Support for Swedish thanks to Konrad Skeri Persson ** New customizable length ubricafterspace defining the space between each rubric ** Fix incompatibilities with the Multibbl package ** Honor bibliography titles (if) provided by multibib or multibbl ** New command oday ** FAQ update ** Fix implementation of skipsamekey option CurVe is a class package that hopefully will make your life easier when you want to write your CV. It provides you with a set of commands to create rubrics, entries in these rubrics etc. CurVe will then properly format your CV for you (possibly splitting it onto multiple pages, repeating the titles etc), which is usually the most painful part of CV writing. Another nice feature of CurVe is its ability to manage different CV flavors simultaneously. It is in fact often the case that you want to maintain slightly divergent versions of your CV at the same time, in order to emphasize on different aspects of your background. CurVe also comes with support for AUC-TeX. [1] Named after Coline Cocotte Verna-Loupiac, born 2004/01/29. She's 3 years old oday :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/curve .
