CTAN upload and rename: ucs replaces unicode
by CTAN Announcements 20 Apr '12

20 Apr '12

the daemon alerts me to an eagerly awaited upload: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: ucs > Author's name: Wolfgang Jeltsch > Package version: 2.0 > Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/ucs/ > Summary description: Extended UTF-8 input encoding support for LaTeX > License type: lppl > >=20 > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > The ucs package provides advanced support for using UTF-8 as the input > encoding of LaTeX files. It goes much beyond the standard UTF-8 > support of LaTeX. For example, it supports much more characters, > provides facilities for efficiently handling this large number of > characters, and allows glyph production to be controlled by various > options. As a result, the ucs package is also suitable for using > non-ASCII characters when entering mathematical formulas.=20 > > Before version 2.0, the ucs package was called =91unicode=92 in certain > contexts. Starting with version 2.0, it should always be called =91ucs= =92. thanks for the upload; i've installed the package as if it were new, and made an entry for it in the catalogue repository. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/ucs.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ucs/ The new catalogue entry will have appeared on the web by tomorrow morning.
