CTAN submission -- numprint.sty
by Reinhard Zierke 25 Feb '03

25 Feb '03

----- Forwarded message from Harald Harders ----- I have uploaded the file numprint.tar.gz to ftp.dante.de. Please replace the files in CTAN://macros/latex/contrib/supported/numprint by its contents. >From the README: Print numbers with a separator every three digits and convert numbers given as 123e456 to 123cdot 10^{456}. If an optional argument is given it is printed upright as unit. Change log: - 0.20 2003/02/24 Added support for pm sign, Fixed bug which made units fragile. - 0.10 2003/01/08 Changed several command from <commandname> to p<commandname> because of an incompatibility with the french language of babel. This makes numprint.sty incompatible with older versions in some cases. License is LPPL. ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for submitting the new version. I installed it as suggested replacing the old version in CTAN://macros/latex/contrib/supported/numprint/ Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team

CTAN submission: Matthias Clasen's TeX extensions
by Reinhard Zierke 21 Feb '03

21 Feb '03

----- Forwarded message from Werner LEMBERG ----- With permission of Matthias I've just uploaded his bundle of TeX extensions (clasen.tar.bz2) to ftp.dante.de. Note that this stuff is about five years old -- the old ftp address is no longer valid. I'm not sure where to install since I couldn't find similar stuff; I suggest `systems/extensions/' as the place where to unpack the archive (which creates an additional subdirectory called `clasen'). Below some text for ctan-ann. ====================================================================== This bundle contains some proposals for extensions to TeX which I have implemented in a series of change files. These have only been tested with web2c 7.2 as contained on the TeX live III CD. glue/glue.ch Adapt Knuth's glue.web to replace all cases of floating-point arithmetic in TeX by fixed-point counterparts. hyphenation/classes.ch: Implements hyphen classes. hyphenation/count.ch: Implements demerits for more than 2 consecutive hyphens. math/accent.ch: Implements nestable and under math accents. math/cramp.ch: Implements primitives to switch to cramped styles. math/radical.ch: Implements generalized radicals with a left and right delimiter. math/fraction.ch: Implements mathstyle and fraction. hz/hz.ch Implement the hz-algorithm, ie using variants of a font to achieve better justification. margin/margin.ch Implement marginchar for hanging punctuation and hyphenation and optical margin correction. ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for your upload. I installed it in CTAN:/tex-archive/systems/tex-extensions/clasen/ Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team
