by CTAN Announcements 22 Oct '26

22 Oct '26

Pablo González L submitted the spanish-mathml-intent package. Version: 1.0 2026-10-20 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Spanish MathML intent for accessible (tagged) PDF with LuaLaTeX Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The spanish-mathml-intent package adds MathML “intent” to mathematics written in Spanish with LuaLaTeX. The “intent” attribute tells a screen reader which concept an expression is and how to speak it, so that NVDA with MathCAT reads the formulas correctly in accessible (tagged) PDF documents. Its commands typeset and tag numbers, units, money, dates and times, geometry, algebra and statistics, each with the Spanish reading it should have. It is aimed at primary and secondary school teachers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/spanish-mathml-intent The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/spanish-mathml-intent/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: runtexshebang
by CTAN Announcements 22 Oct '26

22 Oct '26

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted an update to the runtexshebang package. Version: 1.1 2026-10-21 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A Lua script running LaTeX document files with TeX-style shebang Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- runtexshebang v1.1 refuses a TeX-style shebang (%#!) line that contains an ASCII control character other than TAB, both when running it and with --dry-run. A carriage return or an escape sequence in that line could make the command shown on the terminal differ from the command the shell actually runs. Non-ASCII bytes are not checked, so UTF-8, Shift_JIS and EUC-JP file names keep working. The test suite now also checks that runtexshebang never loads Lua modules placed in the current directory. runtexshebang 1.0 runs the `%#!` line of a LaTeX document through the system shell, as before, but is now more careful about it. ## Changes - The license is now the LaTeX Project Public License 1.3c (was MIT). - The command of the `%#!` line is printed on stderr before it is run, and its exit status is passed through, so editors and `make` can detect failures. - CRLF line endings and a UTF-8 byte order mark before `%#!` are handled; only the leading `%#!` is removed from the line. - Missing files, an empty `%#!` line and unknown options are reported with a message and a non-zero exit status instead of a Lua traceback. `--` ends option parsing. - On Windows, `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath=1` is set before the command runs, so an executable placed next to the document cannot shadow a TeX Live program named on the `%#!` line. - The README has a new Security section. In short: running runtexshebang on a document is equivalent to typing its `%#!` line yourself, so use it only on documents you trust, and never add it to `shell_escape_commands`. - PDF documentation is included. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/runtexshebang More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/runtexshebang -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: footnotenosplit
by CTAN Announcements via ctan-ann 21 Oct '26

21 Oct '26

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted the footnotenosplit package. Version: 1.0 2026-10-20 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Suppress orphan footnote rules when footnotes are not allowed to split Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # footnotenosplit v1.0 Initial release. Setting `\interfootnotelinepenalty=10000` keeps footnote text from being split across pages: a footnote that does not fit is moved to the next page as a whole. This policy, common in book production, can leave a lone `\footnoterule` — with no footnote text below it — at the bottom of the original page, and the moved footnote sits too close to the rule on the next page. footnotenosplit suppresses both side effects. Supported formats/engines: pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX, XeLaTeX (LaTeX2e 2025-06-01 or later), pLaTeX and upLaTeX. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/footnotenosplit More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/footnotenosplit -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
