CTAN Update: The caption package v3.1
by CTAN Announcements 07 Sep '07

07 Sep '07

On Fri, 7 Sep 2007, Axel Sommerfeldt submitted an update to the caption package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/caption/ Summary description: Customising captions in floating environments License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is an improved and enhanced version of the caption package 3. It was adapted to the AMS, beamer, KOMA, NTG, and SMF document classes, the french babel & the frenchle/pro packages; furthermore it supports the floatflt, fltpage, picinpar, picins, threeparttable, and wrapfig package now. Additionally it's now more compatible to version 1.x of the caption package than its precursor. Due to an internal change on how it patches the caption relevant commands, it's also more compatible to the document classes and packages it supports now (and offers an integrated hypcap functionality), but unfortunately also more incompatible to the ones it does not support (yet). Please read the doc for details. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/caption/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=caption (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN package update: pst-optexp
by CTAN Announcements 06 Sep '07

06 Sep '07

The package below has been updated at tug.ctan.org and the changes should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thanks again, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ............................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: pst-optexp Author's name: Christoph Bersch Location on CTAN: /graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-optexp Summary description: A PSTricks package to draw optical experimental setups License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package pst-optexp is a collection of optical components that facilitate easy sketching of optical experimental setups. Mechanisms for proper alignment of different components are provided internally. This way the user does not have to care for proper orientation of the elements. Changes in v1.1: * Considerably enhanced labeling of the components. Added new parameter 'labelref' which specifies the reference coordinate system for the label positioning and the rotation of the label. Default is labelref=relgrav, the label point is rotated together with the component, but the label text itself is not rotated. * parameter labelrelative is now obsolete, and replaced by labelref=relative. It will be removed in future versions. * parameter polwidth, bswidth, iwidth and owidth are now obsolete, and replaced by polsize, bssize, innerheight and outerheight for consistency reasons. They will be removed in future versions. * macro polarisation was changed to polarization for consistency reasons. The old notation is obsolete and will be removed in future versions. * fixed bug: filling of all components with 'fillstyle' is now possible. * fixed bug: added some liftpen=1 in the code to fix the look of the lenses and the optgrid. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-optexp .

CTAN update: mkjobtexmf v0.3
by CTAN Announcements 04 Sep '07

04 Sep '07

On Mon, 3 Sep 2007, Heiko Oberdiek submitted an update to the mkjobtexmf package. The progam mkjobtexmf runs a program and tries to find the used file names. Two methods are available, option -recorder of TeX (Web2C) or the program strace. Then it generates a directory with a texmf tree. It checks the found files and tries sort them in this texmf tree. It can be used for archiving purposes or to speed up following TeX runs. Location on CTAN: support/mkjobtexmf License: artistic Changes of version 0.3: * New option --copy for copying files instead of symbolic linking. * New option --flat that put all links/files in the destination directory without directory structure. * New option --destdir for specifying the the destination directory. Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
