CTAN package update: a mexican dialect of spanish
by CTAN Announcements 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

The package below has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your local mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: a mexican dialect of spanish Author's name: Luis Rivera Location on CTAN: /language/spanish/nonstandard/mx Summary description: language and configuration files to typeset spanish in mexico License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed an unfortunate choice of filename: on some distributions, the included spanish.cfg was automatically installed, thus becoming automatically default; the file has been renamed to esmx.cfg, so you have to create the spanish.cfg file, if not present, and type `include esmx.cfg' explicitly into spanish.cfg to make the mexican spanish default. The README file has been updated accordingly. With my apologies to all users affected. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/language/spanish/nonstandard/mx .

Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ============================================================================ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: mf2pt1 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /support/mf2pt1 Summary description: Produce PostScript Type 1 fonts from Metafont source License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. mf2pt1's advantage over tools such as TeXtrace and mftrace is that it does not rely on bitmap tracing and therefore can produce higher-quality Type 1 fonts than trace-based tools. The catch is that mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input so it is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. This release substantially alters the (internal) is_clockwise macro with the intention of making it a lot more robust. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/mf2pt1 .
