CTAN update: mkjobtexmf v0.3
by CTAN Announcements 04 Sep '07

04 Sep '07

On Mon, 3 Sep 2007, Heiko Oberdiek submitted an update to the mkjobtexmf package. The progam mkjobtexmf runs a program and tries to find the used file names. Two methods are available, option -recorder of TeX (Web2C) or the program strace. Then it generates a directory with a texmf tree. It checks the found files and tries sort them in this texmf tree. It can be used for archiving purposes or to speed up following TeX runs. Location on CTAN: support/mkjobtexmf License: artistic Changes of version 0.3: * New option --copy for copying files instead of symbolic linking. * New option --flat that put all links/files in the destination directory without directory structure. * New option --destdir for specifying the the destination directory. Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

CTAN Update: references v4.3d
by CTAN Announcements 02 Sep '07

02 Sep '07

On Thu, 30 Aug 2007 at 16:55 +0200, Volker Kiefel submitted version 4.3d of the references package. Location on CTAN: support/references License: gpl Summary: REFERENCES is bibliographic software for authors of scientific manuscripts and for management of bibliographic data of ARTICLES IN JOURNALS, of BOOKS, of CHAPTERS IN BOOKS and other document types including notes and electronic documents. REFERENCES supports LaTeX including BibTeX. Bibliographic records in MEDLINE format are easily imported. Retrieval of references is possible by keywords, authors' or editors' names, date of publication, title of article, book title, journal name and other data fields. Lists of references and formatted citations in the text can be compiled in any bibliographic style required by the publishers of scientific journals. REFERENCES is provided with a text based console interface compiled for win32-systems and as Linux port. An external text editor is required for editing data. Changes in v4.3d: For books, the ISBN field has been enlarged to 20 characters due to the change of the international standard book number format in 2007. Linux version only: menu options in square brackets may now be highlighted (controlled by the ENABLE_HL variable in the configuration file). A new awk script ``emptylines.awk'' added: removes empty lines from a text file. Bugfix: incorrect assessment of string length (Linux systems with utf-8 encoding) fixed. All changes and recommendations for use of the new version may be found in the history.txt document. The manual (refsdok.pdf) has been updated. _______________________________________________ This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/references/ .
