CTAN Update: dashrule
by CTAN Announcements 31 Mar '13

31 Mar '13

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the dashrule package. Summary description: Draw dashed rules License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The dashrule package makes it easy to draw a huge variety of dashed rules (i.e., lines) in LaTeX. dashrule provides a command, hdashrule, which is a cross between LaTeX's ule and PostScript's setdash command. hdashrule draws horizontally dashed rules using the same syntax as ule, but with an additional, setdash-like parameter that specifies the pattern of dash segments and the space between those segments. Because dashrule's rules are constructed internally using ule (as opposed to, e.g., PostScript specials) they are fully compatible with every LaTeX back-end processor. Version 1.3 fixes a small bug that introduced spurious spaces into the output. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/dashrule . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/dashrule (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 .

CTAN Update: babel
by CTAN Announcements 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Javier Bezos submitted an update to the babel package, which is part of the LaTeX required packages. Summary description: Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Babel 3.9b version fixes lots of bugs and adds some new features (intended mainly to make it compatible with Unicode engines). Some bugs have not been fixed to avoid backward incompatibilities, but they have been documented. Most of the new features (like package options) are intended to overcome issues in previous releases without changing significantly the behaviour of Babel. Starting with this version, babel has been separated in a core (or base) part, and contributed language-specific packages. The core part is located in the subdirectory base, the contrib part is actually a link into CTAN's macros/latex/contrib subtree. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/babel .
