Ben Vitecek submitted the iitem package. Summary description: Multiple level of lists in one list-like environment. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Writing lists in LaTeX is always a bit annoying. You have to put several egin{list} end{list} in your list environment to go a step deeper. Instead of writing long confusing lists like egin{enumerate} item 1 egin{enumerate} item 2 egin{enumerate} item 3 egin{enumerate} item 4 end{enumerate} end{enumerate} item 2.1 end{enumerate} item 1.1 egin{enumerate} item 2 end{enumerate} end{enumerate} you can just write this using the 'iitem' package: egin{enumerate} item 1 iitem 2 iiitem 3 ivtem 4 iitem 2.1 item 1.1 iitem 2 end{enumerate} Happy TeXing :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/iitem .

CTAN Update: dashrule
by CTAN Announcements 31 Mar '13

31 Mar '13

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the dashrule package. Summary description: Draw dashed rules License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The dashrule package makes it easy to draw a huge variety of dashed rules (i.e., lines) in LaTeX. dashrule provides a command, hdashrule, which is a cross between LaTeX's ule and PostScript's setdash command. hdashrule draws horizontally dashed rules using the same syntax as ule, but with an additional, setdash-like parameter that specifies the pattern of dash segments and the space between those segments. Because dashrule's rules are constructed internally using ule (as opposed to, e.g., PostScript specials) they are fully compatible with every LaTeX back-end processor. Version 1.3 fixes a small bug that introduced spurious spaces into the output. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/dashrule . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/dashrule (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
