This package has been been updated and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ........................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: ctan.tools Author's name: huynh ky anh (aka kyanh) Location on CTAN: /support/ctantools Summary description: client to access CTAN (download/search files/packages) License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT This small tool is used to seach/download some LaTeX packages that were listed in CTAN: http://ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ or search/download for any files in http://ctan.org/tex-archive/. Since version 1.0.1, the tools will use the cache file http://kyanh.net/ctan.tools//dump_files.tbz This file contains the list of all files in CTAN. It's updated daily by a cron job hosted by http://kyanh.net/. The size of file is about 3MB (compressed) & 15MB (un-compressed). The tool requires wget, lynx, gawk, wc, tar/bzip and sed program to run correctly. Some linux distribution doesnot contains lynx by default and you must install lynx manually before running this script. So this tool requires a *nix-liked environment to work. This tool was written by kyanh <xkyanh(a)gmail.com> kyanh is a member of Vietnamese TeX Users Group <http://viettug.org>. He wrote this script as he wanted a fast client to access CTAN. VERSION 1.0.0 2008/05/11: first version 1.1.0 2008/05/15: search for files (use cache file) 1.1.1 2008/05/15: fix bug (ctan_update) USAGE ctan : show all information about this tool ctan update : update the package list (require lynx, wc, tar/bzip and internet connection). ctan grep <string>: search packages match <string>. grep ability is supported. ctan get <string> : download packages match <string> to working directory.

This package is up at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thanks again, Jim Hefferon .................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: theoremref Author's name: Emil Jeřábek Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/theoremref Summary description: references with automatic theorem names License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The theoremref package provides variants of the label and ef commands for theorem-like environments, capable of automatically typesetting references including the theorem name (apart from the theorem number).

CTAN package update: fancyvrb
by CTAN Announcements 13 May '08

13 May '08

Niall Mansfield has developed a patch to the current version of the fancyvrb package, and submitted it to me (as a conduit to ctan). The patch addresses a bug in the code related to selecting lines for verbatim printing: if first selected line == last selected line (i.e., only one line was to be printed), the package failed. The new version has been installed at cambridge ctan, and should be on its way around the world. Users may view the package's catalogue entry at: http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fancyvrb.html or browse the package directory tree: http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/fancyvrb/ The catalogue entry will be (modestly) updated on the web, overnight.
