On Sun, 2 Sep 2012, maïeul Rouquette submitted an update to the
ledmac
package.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The nonumberthisnote which did'nt work everytime is suppress.
Instead, Afootnote and like commands can have an first argument, which is a list of options.
- nonum to disable line printing for this footnote.
- nosep to disable line printing for this footnote.
2 other changes :
- inplaceoflemmaseparator[series]{length} to be printed instead of lemma separator (with option nosep, or with
olemmaseparator).
- lemma can have commands in arguments (like emph).
Notes : if you create your own Xfootnote series, you should change argument : see example in Afootnote.

On Thu, 30 Aug 2012 Maïeul ROUQUETTE submitted an update to the
ledmac and ledpar
packages.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A minor correction is debug with lineation command.
A major change is the add of new commands to allow easy customization of critical footnotes.
These commands are :
-
umberonlyfirstinline[series]
- symlinenum[series]
-
onumberinfootnote[series]
-
onumberthisnote
- eforenumberinfootnote[series]{length}
- afternumberinfootnote[series]{length}
- eforesymlinenum[series]{length}
- aftersymlinenum[series]{length}
- inplaceofnumber[series]{length}
- lemmaseparator[series]{text}
- eforelemamseparator[series]{length}
- afterlemmaseparator[series]{length}
-
olemmaseparator[series]
- afternote[series]{length}
- parafootsep[series]{text}
These commandes are documented on page 17 and next. I think they makes personal Xfootmt commands deprecated.
But for people how wanted to conserv their own definition of Xfootmt, they should replace
defXfootmt#1#2#3{code}
or
ewcommand{Xfootmt}[3]{code}
by
ewcommandx{Xfootmt}[4][4]{code}.
Note this version requires package xargs and etoolbox, which are in all recent TeX distribution.
