CTAN Update: nicefilelist
by CTAN Announcements 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Uwe Lück submitted an update to the nicefilelist package. Summary description: listfiles alignment with date and version columns License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the output from LaTeX's listfiles, `nicefilelist.sty' keeps separate columns for (i) date, (ii) version, and (iii) caption of LaTeX source files according to their Provides... statements. The alignment is not disturbed by long base filenames or short filename extensions such as `.fd'. The specification is Martin Muench's. v0.7 deals with another challenge from the latter: a package option `[wrap]' provides automatic word wrapping within the caption column, so filenames and captions can be quite long without disturbing the alignment. For this purpose, I finally resort to a package not invented here: `hardwrap' by Will Robertson and Kevin Godby. As opposed to the `dateiliste' package, this is in fact about the plain text output in the .log file or, with the `myfilist' package, as a stand-alone plain text file. LICENSE: LPPL 1.3, no responsibility can be accepted when your monitor bursts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/nicefilelist .

CTAN Update: monofill
by CTAN Announcements 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Uwe Lück submitted an update to the monofill package. Summary description: alignment with plain text or monospaced characters License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `monofill.sty' addresses horizontal alignment with plain text as in the result of LaTeX's listfiles for plain text output. v0.2 in fact provides a tool for use with the `hardwrap' package that addresses console output: an other blank token as filling element, MFotherspace. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/monofill .

CTAN Update: moderncv
by CTAN Announcements 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Xavier Danaux submitted an update to the moderncv package. Summary description: A moderncv curriculum vitae class. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.2.0 (31 Oct 2012) - updated the banking style header to include the option to show a title. - set the values of arrayrulewidth and doublerulesep to their standard values (0.4pt and 2pt resp.) to enable the drawing of rules in tabulars and arrays by default. - modified the code of makecvtitle and makelettertitle of the casual style to avoid it to cause horizontal alignment issues after and before itself. - corrected a bug in makelettertitle of most styles that displayed the current date ( oday) instead of the date given through the date command, as reported by B. Schlimmchen and S. Fnord. - removed the need to set pdfpagelabels=false when loading hyperref, by putting pagenumbering{arabic} (to define hepage) before loading hyperref, as figured out by J. Wolf. - corrected the line wrapping of cvlistitem of the banking style. - corrected a bug in makecvtitle and makelettertitle of the banking style. - removed an unwanted space in the footer of the casual style. - moved the font style definitions to moderncv.cls for better readability (moderncv.cls is meant to be a sort of header file, implementing only some macros shared by all styles and defining the macros that the style files need to implement). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv/ .
