CTAN update: TeX-FPC

Wolfgang Helbig submitted an update to the TeX-FPC package. Version number: 2019-03-04 License type: bsd2 Summary description: A collection of change files for a TeX system based on Free Pascal Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Joachim Kuebart spotted three errors that this update fixes: 1) There is still a G mark in the document which I believe should now be X 2) The tgl script invokes gpc instead of fpc 3) tangle reported an error on line 808 of tex.ch – I had to remove the leading space for it to apply successfully. Joachim successfully installed tangle, weave, tex, metafont and gftopk on OpenBSD-6.2 / FPC 3.0.2. The author successfull installed the above programs, xdvi and dvips on OS X 10.11.6 / FPC 3.0.4 TeX-FPC is a tiny demonstration against growth. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/unix/tex-fpc More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/tex-fpc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: BibArts
by CTAN Announcements 05 Mar '19

05 Mar '19

Timo Baumann submitted an update to the BibArts package. Version number: 2.2 License type: gpl Summary description: Arts-style bibliographical information Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BibArts is a package to administer bibliographical references in footnotes, and for creating a bibliography from these references simultaneously; it requires a program, for which source and Windows executable are provided. (A summary of contents is in English; the full documentation is in German.) === Changes from BibArts version 2.1 (2016) to version 2.2 (now, 2019): (1) bibsort 2.2, the sorting program of the package, has 3 new options: Use bibsort -h [...] to sort hyphens ( - hy fhy = ~ ) as spaces. Use bibsort -b [...] to begin the sorting of the title at ago, e.g.: vli{J.}{Smith}{The ago ktit{Book}, London 2005} bibsort -n1 [...] will create blocks of footnote numbers only, if the entries are from footnotes on the same page, e.g.: 10^{3-6}, 11^{7-9} (2) If there are two entries of kli{Smith}{Book} from two successive pages, but with *the same* footnote number, bibsort 2.2 will print out e.g. 10^{3}, 11^{3} . bibsort 2.0 and 2.1 ignored 11^{3} in that case. (3) bibsort 2.2 checks your input concerning the ktit{Shortened Title}. You will find warnings on the screen and as comments in the created files. (4) vli{J.}{Smith}{The ktit{onlyvoll{r}onlykurz{R}ed Book}, 2006} has to be used (for index and ibidem), if the shortened title is not just a part of the full title (red and Red). In some cases, bibsort 2.1 printed out wrong only-arguments on the lists. This error has been fixed. And errors in the sorting of entries with only-commands were eliminated. (5) You may say now enewcommand{ tsep}{apoint } to print out a full stop between name and title; BibArts is avoiding e.g. Smith, J... (6) If you ' enewcommand' a pre-defined text element (caption), you sometimes will have to adapt the italic correction. Bibarts 2.2 provides the homogenous command acorr instead of the four different commands akxxcorr, aabkcorr, alistcorr, and akntsepcorr (but those old commands are still valid). To print the lists, you may say now e.g.: enewcommand{frompagesep}{acorr ; } printnumvli printnumvkc (7) If you use babel, BibArts 2.2 will not execute originalTeX between list items (that's prepared by bibsort, if the catcode of changes): It was useless with germanb-babel and caused errors with french-babel. With german.sty or ngerman.sty, the use of originalTeX is still reproduced. (8) bibarts.sty provides new commands for the hyphenation in German: - oldhyss to set a ss, which is splitted s-s (to be used between vovels, e.g. auoldhyss er; you have to use your sharp S else, e.g. dass); - ewhyss to set a ss, which is splitted s-s only in small caps, and else is printing a sharp S, which is splitted as language says (-ss); - hyss to execute oldhyss, if language is l@german, and ewhyss else (e.g. if language is l@ngerman --- so, hyss can be used *always*); - commands for the handling of tripple consonant before vovel in German: E.g. Stohyf figur, Schahyl leistung, Stahym mutter, Kehyn nummer, Stehyp pullover, Stahyr rahmen, and Schrihyt tempo: If language is l@german, BibArts will PRINT AND SORT hyf as f, and ELSE as ff, etc. + All commands are ready to be used in MakeUppercase (also Druhyc ker). (9) If you conferize, e.g. kli{A}{B} will print a cross-reference to vli{}{A}{ktit{B}}. The INTERNAL KEYWORD is created from the letters, and some accents you use in {A} and {B}. The accents are REPRESENTED as `=[ =] =* ss=(ss l=(l L=(L o=(o O=(O =) ~=- c=+ in the keyword. The active and = . d are not represented any more. === Published under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
