CTAN package Update: dvdcoll
by CTAN Announcements 30 Oct '06

30 Oct '06

On Thu, 26 Oct 2006, Josef Kleber submitted an update to the dvdcoll package. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/dvdcoll Summary description: A class for typesetting DVD archives License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Having lost the overview of my DVD archives, I simply could not remember if I already recorded the documentary running on TV that day. I chose to recreate the index using LaTeX: the design aim was a hyperlinked and fully searchable PDF-document listing my DVDs with all titles, contents, lengths and so on. Further requirements were support for seasons of tv series and a list with all faulty or missing programs for rerecording. The dvdcoll class supports all these requirements. dvdcoll.cls follows the structure <number><title><length>. As a result, the class is not limited to DVDs ÿÿ you can of course typeset archives of CD-ROMs, Audio-CDs and so on. Supported languages at the moment: English, French, German. Some help is needed for other languages! ;-) License: LPPL new in v0.6a: - Bugfix: solving indent problems after commands within environment Dvd (endlinechar=-1) - replacement for broken dcexample.pdf on CTAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/dvdcoll .

CTAN Update: PGF and TikZ version 1.10
by CTAN Announcements 27 Oct '06

27 Oct '06

On Thu, 26 Oct 2006, Till Tantau submitted version 1.10 of his PGF/TikZ package. Location on CTAN: /graphics/pgf License: Mixed LPPL/GPL/FDL PGF is a macro package for creating graphics. It is platform- and format-independent and works together with the most important TeX backend drivers, including pdftex and dvips. It comes with a user-friedly syntax layer called TikZ. Its usage is similar to pstricks and the standard picture environment. Unlike pstricks, it can produce either PostScript or PDF output, and works with plain (pdf-)TeX, (pdf-)LaTeX, and ConTeXt. Till writes: > > I consider this version stable and recommend upgrading to all users. > > Changes since version 1.09: > > - Renamed pgf@sys@pdf@mark to pgfsyspdfmark. > - Fixed the ConTeXt support so that it is usable (which is wasn't). > Best regards, _______________________________________________ This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pgf/ .
