CTAN Update: isodate package
by CTAN Announcements 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

On Mon, 4 Jan 2010, Harald Harders submitted an update to the isodate package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/isodate/ Summary description: Prints dates and date ranges in various (language-dependent) formats License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides ten output formats of the commands oday, printdate, printdateTeX, and daterange (partly language dependent): ISO (yyyy-mm-dd), numeric (e.g. dd.,mm.~yyyy), short (e.g. dd.,mm.,yy), TeX (yyyy/mm/dd), original (e.g. dd. mmm yyyy), short original (e.g. dd. mmm yy), as well as numerical formats with Roman numerals for the month. The commands printdate and printdateTeX print any date. The date is given as an argument using the actual date format for output: printdate{yyyy-mm-dd}, printdate{dd.mm.yyyy}, or printdate{dd/mm/yyyy}, and printdateTeX{yyyy/mm/dd}. The command daterange prints a date range and leaves out unnecessary year or month entries. E.g. 2000-05-03 to 2000-05-08 leads to `2000-05-03 to 08'. ChangeLog: 2010/01/03 v2.30 Harald Harders (h.harders(a)tu-bs.de) - Add a month-year format (omitting the day) - Move defintion of language-independent formats into the main style file 2007/04/09 v2.29 Harald harders (h.harders(a)tu-bs.de) - Allow to change the unbreakable spaces in the orig and shortorig format ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/isodate/ .

CTAN update: eqparbox

This should soon be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ..................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: eqparbox Version number: 3.1 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/eqparbox Summary description: Put text in boxes that are as wide as the widest text License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LaTeX users sometimes need to ensure that two or more blocks of text occupy the same horizontal space on the page. To that end, the eqparbox package defines eqparbox, eqmakebox, eqframebox, and eqsavebox commands, which work just like parbox, makebox, framebox, and savebox, respectively, except that instead of specifying a width, one specifies a tag. All boxes with the same tag -- regardless of where they are in the document -- will stretch to fit the widest box that uses that tag. This simple, equal-width mechanism can be used for a variety of alignment purposes, as is evidenced by the examples in eqparbox's documentation. Version 3.1 includes Rob Verhoeven's eqmakebox contribution and supplements it with eqframebox and eqsavebox. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/eqparbox .
