Re: dante.ctan.org upload: mathastext
by CTAN Announcements 04 Apr '11

04 Apr '11

On Mon, 4 Apr 2011 Jean-Francois Burnol submitted an update to the mathastext package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/mathastext Summary description: Use the text font in simple mathematics License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is release 1.14c + There was a bug with $, &, \%, and # in math mode which could show up when ten or more math families had been assigned. The same bug also affected under the same circumstances the minus sign when Unicode engines were used. Fixed. + I have modified a bit the behavior of the LGRgreek option, and defined a new option LGRgreeks. Idem with selfGreek which now also has a variant selfGreeks (this is related to the behavior accross distinct math versions.) + Bug fix: the Mathastext macro reinitializes the fonts in the normal and bold math versions, but it also erroneously redeclared the math alphabet changing commands which could have been set up in previously defined math versions (via earlier calls to Mathastext[version_name]). + Finally, I have tried to clean up a bit some aspects of the implementation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mathastext . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/mathastext (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 .
