Version number: SVN 4742 License type: lppl Summary description: LaTeX3 Programming Conventions Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Snapshot of SVN 4742 ==================== The major change in this snapshot is allowing expl3 to be loaded using formats other than LaTeX2e: input expl3-generic % This allows the 'programming' layer to be used in a format-neutral way. Minor changes to the bundle include: - Further improvements to native driver code - Improve handling of class options by l3keys2e - Fix nesting of keys_set_known:nnN - Various documentation tweaks and typo fixes There is also one removal from l3experimental: l3dt/xmetadata is dropped as while some of the ideas are useful, the existing implementation is too slow to be useful. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- These packages are located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3kernel/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3packages/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3experimental/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3kernel http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3packages http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3experimental We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
