CTAN update: rotating
by CTAN Announcements 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

juergen spitzmueller found a bug in sebastian rahtz's rotating package, which i now maintain. i have now mended the bug (which i introduced), and i have installed a new version of the package on ctan (note that a file rotating.tds.zip also exists, for the convenience of those who maintain their own systems). users may visit the catalogue entry for the package at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/rotating.html or browse the package directory on the archive at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/rotating/ i have updated the catalogue entry in the repository, and the link above will be updated overnight, but is unlikely to deceive in any important way before then.

CTAN update: svn-multi
by CTAN announcements (Jim Hefferon, tug.ctan.org) 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

This package has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should be at your local mirror within a day. Thanks again, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ........................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: svn-multi Author's name: Martin Scharrer Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/svn-multi/ Summary description: Update to version 2.1 - Automatic extraction of keyword values from Subversion working directory License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This version adds the possibility to extract the needed version control keyword values of LaTeX or external files directly from the Subversion working directory. This feature avoids the need for an external script to generate the keyword definitions for external files (a feature introduced by v2.0) and can also be used to make id macro completely redundant. This feature must be explicitly enabled using the 'autokw' (Auto-Keywords) option. It only works with valid Subversion working directories from Subversion v1.4 or newer but not with exported or downloaded files. Technical Informations: A TeX parser for the '.svn/entries' file which is located in every Subversion working copy/directory is added. The working copy format versions 8, i.e. Subversion v1.4, or higher should be supported. The implementation was tested with Subversion 1.5.1 under Ubuntu 8.10. Users which encounter parsing errors or wrong results should not hesitate to send bugreports with information about the used Subversion version and platform to the author. Bugfixes: The version 2.0 released earlier this week erroneously changed the document date (e.g. oday) to the package release date. This has been fixed in this version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/svn-multi/ .

CTAN update: PerlTeX
by CTAN announcements (Jim Hefferon, tug.ctan.org) 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

This package has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should within a day be at your local mirror. Thanks, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ............................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: PerlTeX Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/perltex Summary description: Define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PerlTeX is a combination Perl script (perltex.pl) and LaTeX2e style file (perltex.sty) that, together, give the user the ability to define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code. Once defined, a Perl macro becomes indistinguishable from any other LaTeX macro. PerlTeX thereby combines LaTeX's typesetting power with Perl's programmability. Version 1.8 of PerlTeX adds support for creating documents that can build either with or without PerlTeX. Specifically, the new optional package option tells PerlTeX not to issue an error message if Perl is inaccessible, and the new ifperl macro checks if Perl is accessible, thereby letting the author define fallback macros/environments if it's not. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/perltex .
