Karl Berry submitted an update to the
tugboat
package.
Version: 2.37 2026-06-14
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: LaTeX macros for TUGboat articles
Announcement text:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A small update to the LaTeX package for the TUGboat journal
(https://tug.org/TUGboat). Noteworthy changes:
2.37 (2026-06-14)
- \Thanh now uses the e-circumflex-acute (U+1EBF) character from the
current font, if it's defined. If it's not defined, the acute is now
typeset to the right of the circumflex, instead of vertically above it.
- new abbreviations \MiKTeX, \TeXLive.
- \abovedisplayskip and \belowdisplayskip reduced to be the same as
\topsep (used above/below lists, verbatims, etc.), to avoid unequal spacing.
- \acro now defined using \NewDocumentCommand, so that it is robust and
can be used in titles even when tagging is active.
