CTAN update: markdown
by CTAN Announcements 22 Nov '24

22 Nov '24

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the markdown package. Version number: 3.9.0-0-g4f1abe21 2024-11-21 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Converting and rendering markdown documents inside TeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Development: - Convert built-in LaTeX themes `witiko/dot` and `witiko/graphicx/http` into plain TeX themes. (#514, #522, #529) This allows these themes to be used in formats such as plain TeX and ConTeXt as well. Refactoring: - Remove dependencies on `ifthen`, `gobble`, and `catchfile`. (#514, #522, #529) - Store small built-in LaTeX themes `witiko/dot`, `witiko/graphicx/http`, and `witiko/tilde` in expl3 props in files `markdown.tex` and `markdown.sty`. (#514, #522, #529) This simplifies the distribution and installation of these themes, which were previously located in individual `.tex` and `.sty` files. The built-in plain TeX, LaTeX, and ConTeXt themes `witiko/markdown/defaults` are still distributed in individual files. This is because inlining these themes in files `markdown.tex`, `markdown.sty`, and `t-markdown.tex` would make it more difficult for users to copy and modify these themes without delaying updates to the Markdown package itself. Furthermore, these themes are large and storing/executing them from an expl3 prop would make it more difficult to determine the line numbers when errors occur. Fixes: - Protect renderers and renderer prototypes. (#465, #506) After this change, default renderers and renderer prototypes as well as renderers and renderers and prototypes defined using the keys `renderers` and `rendererPrototypes` of the command `markdownSetup` are protected, which is usually preferable for typesetting. New keys `unprotectedRenderers` and `unprotectedRendererPrototypes` were also added to the command `markdownSetup`. These keys define unprotected renderers and renderer prototypes, respectively, which are easier to expand and may be preferable for programming. Defaults: - Define default LaTeX renderer prototypes for table identifiers. (#525, suggested by @machitgarha, #528) This establishes a reliable method for authors to reference tables within Markdown: ``` tex documentclass{article} usepackage[ pipe_tables, table_attributes, table_captions, relative_references, ]{markdown} egin{document} egin{markdown} | Right | *Left* | Default | Center | |------:|:-------|-------------|:------:| | 12 | 12 | 12 | 12 | | 123 | 123 | **123** | 123 | | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | : Demonstration of *pipe table* syntax with the caption spreading over multiple lines. {#identifier .class-name key=value} Demonstration of a *relative reference*: See Table <#identifier>. end{markdown} end{document} ``` - Define default LaTeX renderer prototypes for bracketed spans. (discussed with @MacLotsen at TUG 2024 and with @TeXhackse at matrix.org, #528) This establishes a reliable method for authors to reference the last LaTeX counter that has been incremented in e.g. ordered lists. ``` tex documentclass{article} usepackage[ bracketed_spans, relative_references, start_number = false, ]{markdown} egin{document} egin{markdown} Demonstration of *bracketed spans* syntax: 1. First item 2. [Second item]{#second-item} 3. Third item Demonstration of a *relative reference*: See item <#second-item>. end{markdown} end{document} ``` - Use package LuaXML in default LaTeX renderer prototypes for content blocks, raw blocks, and inline raw spans. (#469, #532, co-authored by @michal-h21) This allows authors to render HTML fragments in their LaTeX documents: `````` tex documentclass{article} usepackage[content_blocks, raw_attribute]{markdown} egin{filecontents}[overwrite, nosearch, noheader]{example_input.html} foo bar end{filecontents} egin{document} egin{markdown} Raw text span: `foo bar`{=html} Raw code block: ``` {=html} foo bar ``` Content block: /example_input.html end{markdown} end{document} `````` Deprecation: - Remove support for TeX Live 2022. (da85e015, 8f2d25c7) This change also removes the Lua module `markdown-tinyyaml`, which has been scheduled for removal ever since the Lua module `tinyyaml` was uploaded to CTAN in TeX Live 2023. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/generic/markdown More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/markdown ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: anima
by CTAN Announcements 20 Nov '24

20 Nov '24

Adriano Gomes de Santana submitted the anima package. Version: 1.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Create slideshows with simple animations Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The idea for this package arose from noticing that including the |pause| command from the |beamer| class within the |foreach| loop command from the |tikz| package creates a sequence of frames, where each slide presents a step in the construction of the image. The purpose of the |anima| class is to provide macros that simplify the use of this effect for creating animated slide presentations. Although the functionality of this class can be compared to the transition effects of the |beamer| class, it is not a dependency of the |anima| class. However, the class makes extensive use of the image creation language provided by the |tikz| package. Lastly, it is worth noting a comparison between this class and the |animate| package. The |animate| package can create embedded animations within the document, while the |anima| class produces an animation where each frame corresponds to a page of the document. This distinction highlights the different design goals of the |anima| class. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/anima The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/anima/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
