CTAN update: contracard
by CTAN Announcements 06 Jun '26

06 Jun '26

Sam Whited submitted an update to the contracard package. Version: 3.0.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Generate calling cards for dances Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Contra Card project contains a package for typesetting traditional called folk dances (mostly contra dance, but it is also useful for square, English Country, and other traditional, called, dances) as well as a class for creating calling cards for use by dance callers. In version 3 of the package the common move shortcuts have been overhauled to make typesetting complex figures easier, and to allow callers to use their own preferred way of writing moves. In addition, new commands have been added to allow quickly changing the role names from the default “Larks/Robins” (common in modern urban contra dance) to whatever your local dance scene prefers. This version is a major overhaul and documents written with an old version will likely break, please see the changelog in the documentation for a full list of changes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/contracard The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/contracard/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
