CTAN update: babel-german
by CTAN Announcements 25 Jan '26

25 Jan '26

Jürgen Spitzmüller submitted an update to the babel-german package. Version: 2.99 2026-01-24 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Babel support for documents written in German Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This release marks a major rewrite of babel-german. Next to minor bug fixes, the release features the following major changes: * The sources and manuals of the previously separate 1901 and 1996 orthography (a.k.a. german and ngerman) have been merged into one common source and manual. * New language option names are introduced: german-at, german-ch, german-de (alias german-austria, german-germany, german-switzerland) for contemporary (1996) orthography, german-at-1901, german-ch-1901, german-de-1901 (alias german-austria-1901, german-germany-1901, german-switzerland-1901) for traditional (1901) orthography. The received options (austrian, german, swissgerman, naustrian, ngerman, nswissgerman) are kept with their meaning, but discouraged from now on. * By default and when using the new language options, babel-german now uses the new (exptl) hyphenation patterns. The received options keep using the legacy patterns by default. * Introduce \germansetup for option specification. The capsz and toss options now also can be set this way (with a more general scope). * Hyphenation patterns can now be specified directly (via \germansetup, in addition to the \babelprovide method which has a more granular scope) * Introduce option "glottonyms" that specifies whether the option "german" activates old or contemporary orthography. By default, it still activates old, but this will change in a future version (presumably for TL 2026). * Fix some shorthands (particularly their vmode behavior) The manual includes elaborations about these changes, the rationales and future directions. Also note that the package moved home.
