These need testing to see > what works: LuaTeX feedback is very welcome. thanks for the upload. i installed the update yesterday; for tedious technical reasons i was unable to do one of my consistency checks from home, yesterday, which is why the announcement hasn't come until now. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/expl3.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/expl3/ and the mini-catalogue change will occur overnight tonight.

CTAN update: perltex
by CTAN Announcements 25 Jul '10

25 Jul '10

This should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ........................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: PerlTeX Version number: 2.1 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 2.1 works better across different operating systems, TeX distributions, and Perl versions than its predecessors. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/perltex/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/perltex (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
