CTAN update: linguexx
by CTAN Announcements 06 Oct '26

06 Oct '26

Gerhard Schaden submitted an update to the linguexx package. Version: 1.4 2026-10-04 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A tagging-aware package for typesetting linguistic examples and glosses Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ linguexx 1.4 adds movement arrows and verbatim text in examples, and contains several bugfixes. New features in 1.4 * Movement arrows: \mvto{a}{What} did John buy \mvfrom{a}{\_\_}? draws an arrow from the base position to the landing site, below the line, or above the object line in a gloss. Several movements in one example are stacked out of each other's way, and the links of a chain stay on one level. In beamer each slide has its own arrows, so they stay with their words across \pause and \only. In a tagged PDF the base position is read as "__ (moved)". * \verb, fancyvrb's \Verb and listings' \lstinline now work inside an \ex. example, in sub-examples and in glosses. Fixed in 1.4 * An empty gloss cell {} was dropped, so every gloss after it sat under the wrong word. * References to examples with a custom label, \ex.[(7)]: \ref printed nothing for the example itself and "(0a)" for its sub-examples, and all such links led to the first of them. * With cleveref, a \label in the prose after an example was referred to as the example, and a \cref list mixing numbered and custom-labelled examples could lose one of them. Changed in 1.4 * linguexx now needs LaTeX 2022-06-01 or later. A package option given a value, such as [legacy=true], is now an error: write [legacy]. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/linguexx The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/linguexx/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
