On Sat, 26 May 2012 Wybo Dekker submitted an update to the
ctable
package.
Summary description: Flexible typesetting of table and figure floats using key/value directives
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ctable.sty provides commands to easily typeset centered or left or
right aligned tables and (multiple-)figure floats, with footnotes.
Instead of an environment, a command with 4 arguments is used; the
first is optional and is used for key,value pairs generating
variations on the defaults and offering a route for future
extensions.
New in v1.22:
- allow empty lines in last (tabular) argument
- corrected error from hyperref's nameref calls (thanks Marco Daniel!)
