CTAN update: selnolig
by CTAN Announcements 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

quoth the daemon: The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: selnolig Author's name: Mico Loretan Author's email: loretan.mico(a)gmail.com Package version: 0.256 Location on CTAN: macros/luatex/latex/selnolig/ Summary description: The package suppresses typographic ligatures selectively, i.e., based on predefined search patterns. The search patterns focus on ligatures deemed inappropriate because they span morpheme boundaries. For example, the word shelfful, which is mentioned in the TeXbook as a word for which the ff ligature might be inappropriate, is automatically typeset as shelf/ful rather than as shel{ff}ul. For English and German language documents, the package provides extensive rules for the selective suppression of so-called “common” ligatures. These comprise the ff, fi, fl, ffi, and ffl ligatures as well as the ft and fft ligatures. Other f-ligatures, such as fb, fh, fj and fk, are suppressed globally, while exceptions are made for names and words of non-English/German origin, such as Kafka and fjord. For English language documents, the package further provides ligature suppression macros for a number of ! so-called “discretionary” or “rare” ligatures such as ct, st, and sp. The package requires use of a recent LuaLaTeX format (for example TeXLive2012 or 2013, or MiKTeX2.9). License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Updated rules for st and sp ligatures in composite words consisting of prefix ending in s (such as mis, dis, and trans) and a main word (free morpheme) starting with st or sp. - In Appendix F (case studies of selnolig applied to various pieces of literature), added tallies of words that that get their ligatures suppressed for Faust 1 and Faust 2 - Shortened some sections of the user guide and expanded others. There's now a (reasonably careful) discussion of why morpheme boundaries rather than syllable boundaries matter for ligature suppression purposes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Announcement required: Yes Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/selnolig or they may browse the package directory at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/selnolig/ thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the catalogue repository.
