by CTAN Announcements 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

On Tue, 21 Dec 2010, Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the filehook package. Summary description: Updated to v0.3: Add support for package and class file hooks. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This update adds AtBeginOfPackageFile, AtEndOfPackageFile, AtBeginOfClassFile and AtEndOfClassFile hook macros to execute code before or after packages or classes. Special care is taken to execute the AtEnd code after any code inserted by the package or class itself using the standard LaTeX macros AtBeginOfPackage/AtBeginOfClass. This version now triggers an error when a incompatible definition of InputIfFileExists is detected. An option 'force' is provided to overwrite this. Further information can be taken from the discussion on comp.text.tex: svn-multi incompat fink -- Was: [Re: CTAN update: fink] (e.g. https://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.tex/browse_frm/thread/d535855d0bc…). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/filehook/ .
