CTAN update: latexdiff
by CTAN Announcements 29 Dec '21

29 Dec '21

Frederik Tilmann submitted an update to the latexdiff package. Version: 1.3.2 2021-12-27 License: gpl3 Summary description: Determine and mark up significant differences between LaTeX files Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- # latexdiff ## API adaptions: - latexdiff now completes with exit code 0 after --help or --version command (see issue #248) ## New features / feature extensions - extend CUSTOMDIFCMD related postprocessing to deal properly with multiline commands, or a sequence of several commands in the same line (see github issue #204) - support for additional macros from import package (import, inputfrom, includefrom, subimport,subinputfrom, subincludefrom). Provided by janniklasrose in PR #243 (fixes #239) - replace default driver dvips->pdftex ## Bug fixes: - fix bug reported in issue #218 by replacing hspace{0pt} after mbox{..} auxiliary commands with hskip0pt (IMPORTANT as old way apparently breaks latexdiff output under default setting with recent versions pdflatex) - fix issue #206 affecting proper markup of text commands which are not also safe cmds and have multiple arguments - fix issue #210 by adding eqref (amsmath package) to the list of safe commands - fix bug reported in issue #168 mangled verbatim line environment - more ways to process frac correctly with atomic arguments. Provided by julianuu PR #246 - fix a bug in biblatex mode, which prevented proper processing of modified extcite (see: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/555157/latexdiff-and-biblatex-citat…) - -h string fix: add -driver option # latexdiff-vc ## Bug fixes: - when setting config variables with the command lines it is now possible to use quotes to include spaces in the value, e.g. `-c LATEX=pdflatex --shell-escape` - as --only-changes is not compatible with graphics markup, --graphics-markup=none is now set automatically when this option is selected - when --pdf or --postscript is select, then replace tildes in version names with underscores in output file (e.g. diffHEAD_1 instead of diff HEAD~1. This is necessary because pdflatex strips ~n strings at the end of the filename, when generating output file names # latexrevise ## New features - Introduce option -r / --replace which removes markup of the form eplaced{new text}{old text} in the changes package - Functionality -c option: if comment to be deleted is the last in the line replace new line by space character. This is done to avoid errors or unintended line breaks from empty lines after deletion (which are interpreted as par) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/latexdiff The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/latexdiff/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: asymptote
by CTAN Announcements 29 Dec '21

29 Dec '21

John Bowman submitted updates to the asymptote package. Version: 2.73 2021-12-27 License: lgpl3 Summary description: 2D and 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Release Notes for Version 2.73 The asygl library was updated to support embedding of WebGL and WebGL2 scenes on the same page. Release Notes for Version 2.72 WebGL2 is enabled by default only for examples that use image-based lighting. Multiple output formats in threaded interactive mode are now handled correctly. CPU partial sum indexing is used in the 3D transparency shader if the compute shader fails to compile. Release Notes for Version 2.71 Support for the portable compressed 3D vector file format V3D was added. The default value of settings.prc was changed to false. Efficient order-independent transparency was implemented for modern OpenGL platforms and the OSMesa offscreen rendering engine (with no interactive transparency support for Mac OS X and WebGL). The WebGL library now uses WebGL2 if available. Image-based lighting was implemented. Many bug fixes and improvements were made to Xasy, allowing objects drawn with the graphical editor to be saved to and restored from a .xasy file, as well as being exportable to an .asy file. A function was added to graph a parametric function with control points determined by the specified derivative. The recommended PostScript viewer for MSWindows is now Sumatra PDF. The workflow for generating transparent PDFs and PNGs was fixed. Emacs lasy-mode was patched to work with Emacs >= 23. Support for the Language Server Protocol was added. Compilation with COMPACT=0 is supported again. All threads now return the same error code. A remote command-line interface to http://asymptote.ualberta.ca is now available. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/asymptote The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/asymptote/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
