23 Jun '25

plante submitted an update to the visualtoks package. Version: 1.1 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Typeset TeXbook-style visualisations of token lists Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bug fixes: - The catcode of active implicit characters (an active character that has been \let to another character) would display incorrectly; this is now corrected. - Some pieces of code did not have adequate protection against stray \if... tokens. They have been made if-safe. New Features: - “Anomalous” control sequences (that differ in shape from the control sequence with the same name formed by \csname) are now detected and marked with a star (*). - Added a .sty so LaTeX users can say \usepackage{visualtoks}. - Changed the name of the parameter \visualtokskip to \visualtokssep. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/visualtoks The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/generic/visualtoks/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: struktex
by CTAN Announcements 22 Jun '25

22 Jun '25

Jobst Hoffmann submitted an update to the struktex package. Version: 3.0a License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts Even in the age of OOP one must develop algorithms. Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams are a well known tool to describe an algorithm in a graphical way. This package StrukTeX presents some macros for generating those diagrams in a LaTeX document. The package provides the most important elements of a Nassi-Shneiderman diagram, including processing blocks, loops, mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. Diagrams are drawn using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference). The author is Jobst Hoffmann. See also pict2e. If one is working with (X)emacs and AUCTeX the "drawing" process is supported by structex.el, a style file which knows the syntax of most of the commands from the StrukTeX package. Version v3.0a-0-gfdf7422 incorporates a nearly completely rewritten documentation and a new file organization without the need of a struktex.ins fle. Additionally the Makefile is replaced by lbuild.lua and lbuild-config.lua - the latter for configuring the language (de or en). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/struktex The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/struktex/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Thomas Weise submitted the texgit package. Version: 0.9.6 2025-06-20 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Download, access, and potentially execute files from git Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The “texgit” package is a tool mainly intended for including source codes and files from external “git” repositories in LaTeX code. Imagine that you are teacher in the field of computer science. Maybe you are teaching a programming class. You want to use LaTeX to make a course book or course slides. Naturally, you will want to include example programs and source codes in your book/slides. Maybe you even want to execute your codes and show their outputs. That is, at present, tedious. You could put them as files into your teaching material and manually execute them. But they will always be isolated examples and more often than not, code examples are just written directly in the LaTeX sources in listings environments. With the “texgit” package, you can separate your example codes from your teaching material. You can put them into a separate “git” repository. In your LaTeX code, you can tell “texgit” to download this repository (it will be cached locally) and then get the local paths to the files in the repository. Moreover, you can also execute the downloaded files and let “texgit” store their output into local files (which, again, will be cached). You can then include these files in your teaching material. The “texgit” package allows you to do the following things: - download files from a “git” repository and access them from LaTeX, - apply some post-processor to the downloaded files (e.g., strip comments and type hints from Python code) and access the post-processed files instead, - execute scripts or programs -- either local or downloaded from “git” repositories -- and fetch their output into local files accessible from LaTeX, - create local paths accessible from LaTeX which can be passed as arguments to the scripts or programs that are executed, e.g., as argument to a Python script that creates and stores a “matplotlib” plot under the path that it received as argument, allowing you to programmatically create figures and include them LaTeX documents. The package works a bit like “BibTeX”: Let’s say your document is named “document.tex”. During the first “pdflatex” run, executed as “pdflatex document”, all the requests mentioned above, say, to download files from “git” repositories, are stored in the “aux” file. The paths corresponding to the requests point to an empty file at this stage. Then you would apply the “texgit” post-processor by calling “python3 -m texgit.run document”. This Python program (see https://pypi.org/project/texgit) executes all the requests and caches their results locally. During the second run of “pdflatex document”, the paths corresponding to the requests then point to the actual downloaded or generated files. All downloaded or generated files will be locally cached in a folder named “__git__” in your document’s directory. You can delete this folder to refresh the files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/texgit The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/texgit/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
