New on CTAN: indextools
by CTAN Announcements 25 Jan '15

25 Jan '15

Maïeul Rouquette submitted the indextools package. Version number: 1.4 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: A fork of imakeidx to fixe one bug with bidi Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is a fork of the imakeidx package. The original authors of imakeidx were Claudio Beccari and Enrico Gregorio; the first author withdrew his availability as a maintainer in 2013. The second author declined some upgrade suggestions to remove some incompatibilities with certain packages that are particularly important with critical editions dealing with languages that are being written from right to left. Therefore this fork, named indextools, was created by Maïeul Rouquette, who acknowledges the work of the two preceding authors thanking them for the excellent package they created; nevertheless this fork was necessary in order to let other users benefit from its functionalities very useful in the field of humanities. We hope that one day, only one package will be provided. The differences with the imakedix are: - the name; - the compatibility with package bidi; - the documentation. A strange conflict was discovered between packages imakeidx and bidi, in order to let hyperref redefine some internal macros so as to have index hyperlinks properly executed. This implies that the index package be loaded before hyperref; on the opposite bidi (for bidirectional writing, needed for typesetting Arabic and Hebrew scripts, among other ones) must be loaded after hyperref and redefines some hyper commands that have influence on the indexing package; therefore after loading bidi the previous redefinitions are lost. A solution was found by modifying the definition of the environment theindex and delaying its definition to the execution of egin{document}. This is the main reason of this fork so that indextools may be loaded, as most packages normally do, before hyperref. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/indextools More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/indextools We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Version number: v5.0 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Typeset documents using base twelve numbering (also called dozenal) Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For version 5.0, the documentation and code structure was substantially cleansed, and a git repository was created for the package. I've also added the appropriate fontdimens to the font files, so that microtype won't complain about them.
