User-visible or otherwise noteworthy changes: - burl: new name for bsurl, should work in all cases. def burl{url} to keep using url in the document body. - itleref: command to typeset a book (etc.) title (slanted + frenchspacing). - ubdots: command for a normally-spaced ellipsis (the standard LaTeX definition), not the squashed-together Unicode character U+2026 provided by most fonts. - aggedleft: TUB's redefinition should now work with tabularray. - Thanh: should now use the Unicode character (U+1EBF) when available. tugboat.bst: consistently use url instead of href, to avoid requiring hyperref.

CTAN update: etoc
by CTAN Announcements 16 Jan '23

16 Jan '23

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the etoc package. Version number: 1.1b 2023-01-15 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Completely customisable TOCs Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This version brings no new functionality, despite the number bump. It implements a complete rewrite of old legacy core internals. Collaterals: - etoclink now wraps its argument in an hyperlink even if hyperref is configured via linktoc=none. Formerly no hyperlink was added then. - etocthelinkedname, etocthelinkednumber, etocthelinkedpage now are always hyperlinks. Formerly this depended on linktoc status. - Deprecation of etocsavedsectiontocline and similarly named commands. They are not needed as l@section et al. are with this release left unmodified during TOCs typesetting. LaTeX kernel from 2020/10/01 or later is required. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/etoc CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Karl Berry submitted an update to the latex2e-help-texinfo package. Version number: 2023-01-15 License type: other-free Summary description: Unofficial reference manual covering LaTeX2e Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A new version of the unofficial LaTeX2e reference manual is available. The easiest way to view the manual is by visiting: https://latexref.xyz It is also available in TeX distributions, and on CTAN at: https://ctan.org/pkg/latex2e-help-texinfo Notable changes since the last release: Additions: * For each node name foo & bar, provide separate anchors for foo and bar, so they can be referenced individually, especially online. * Brief discussion of bold math alternatives, including for OpenType. Fixes: * description of definition and use of optional arguments somewhat clarified. * exttt{ extbackslash} (and extbraceleft and extbraceright) require T1 or other non-default encoding to produce typewriter characters. * dots description extended, with more about the amsmath redefinition, and Unicode vs. traditional typesetting. * Spanish translation brought up to date. Formatting: * For the TeX output, enable microtype, since Texinfo now supports it. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Suggestions, bug reports, all discussion welcome.

CTAN update: pgf
by CTAN Announcements 16 Jan '23

16 Jan '23

The PGF/TikZ Team submitted an update to the pgf package. Version number: 3.1.10 License type: lppl1.3c gpl2 fdl Summary description: Create PostScript and PDF graphics in TeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## [3.1.10] - 2023-01-13 Henri Menke Even though this release is not too heavy on user-facing additions it has seen a lot of contributed changes. Thanks to everyone who volunteered their time! ### BREAKING CHANGES - `pgfversiondatetime` and `pgfrevisiondatetime` have been removed. `pgfversiondate` and `pgfrevisiondate` now use the format `YYYY-MM-DD`. `pgfrevision{,date}` and `pgfversion{,date}` are synonyms for now, but the revision should eventually gain back its original meaning. However, as of now this is not supported by l3build. - Many operations in `pgfkeys` used to use `csname` directly which lets the given csname become ` elax` in case it wasn't defined. This resulted in some leakage of accidentally ` elax`ed keys into the global scope. This has been cleaned up a little. To preserve compatibility macros that used to expand to a ` elax`ed csname now expand to a primitive ` elax`. This affects the user-level commands `pgfkeysgetvalue` and `pgfkeysgetvalueof`. For the former the change should not be visible except for the number of expansions required. For `pgfkeysgetvalueof`, however, the behavior is manifestly different in that it will now expand to an alias for the primitive ` elax` in case the value is undefined instead of a ` elax`ed csname. It has always been semantically wrong to assign to the result of `pgfkeysgetvalueof`, but now it will have undesired side-effects. Therefore this change is breaking. - The `textures` and `vtex` drivers have been deprecated. Both engines are no longer in active development and lack eTeX features which are required for quite some time in PGF. - The file `pgfutil-common-lists.tex` is deprecated and therefore no longer `input` by `pgfutil-common.tex`. The macros from this file are specifically meant for pgfplots and are not used in PGF at all. ### Added - l3build support for packaging PGF/TikZ - Add Matrix chat to README - Add rhombic polihedra #1022 - Add Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) to Pull Request template and enforce - Add test set for `graphdrawing` (gd) - pgfkeys gained support for loading libraries - Add dependabot to keep GitHub Actions up to date ### Fixed - Wrap logic gate symbol in `pgfinterruptpicture` for shapes in library `shapes.gates.logic.IEC` - Remove superfluous `;` for shape `arrow box` - Remove superfluous `/utils/exec` in animations - Gobble `pgf@stop` when parsing finishes in animations - Add missing `pgf@sys@tonumber` before `<dimen>` in drivers and animations - Rewrite `dash expand off` - Better unknown key error msg in decorations - Fix `let` in drivers for two csnames #1088 - Protect against comma in pgfkeys arguments #389 - Let active `` expand to non-active `` in pgfmath #1062 - Protect against comma in `/tikz/rotate fit` argument and make it eagerly evaluated #1071 - Set pics/code in angle #1068 - Fix for externalization and horizontal mode - Avoid spurious tokens in `pgfcalendarifdate` expansion - Remove angle restriction #1048 - Fix compatibility of `external` lib with `fadings` lib - Only clearpage and flush `pgfutil@everybye` if non-empty #724 - Fix foreach documentation #1039 - Fix pgfmathless documentation #1040 - Blend mode as array is deprecated #1037 - One-step expansion for `pgfmathrandomitem` in pgfmath #1033 - Check whether expanded is a primitive in all engines - Reinsert the last token when giving up on a path #1025 - Make `/tikz/local bounding box` aware of `name prefix` and `name suffix` - Add empty Pattern dictionary to Resources dictionary - Spelling and typo fixes in the manual - Update Debian installation instructions - Suppress white space at line end when `datavisualization` reads from a file #1112 - Form-only patterns have no specified color #1122 - Make `graphdrawing` work with `name prefix` and `name suffix` options #1087 - pgfkeys was a bit too relaxed around ` elax` #1132 - Remove spurious spaces for `3d view` #1151 - Fix incorrectly placed matrix delimiters for implicitly positioned nodes #1102 - Use `/.append` to fix a wrong usage of `/.add` in pgfmanual #1201 ### Changed - Cleanup ` ewif`s - Remove unused scripts - Remove experiments/ folder - Simplify loading by delegating to top-level files - Promote `Missing character` to errors in building manual - Flatten the doc tree - Ensure ` racinglostchars<3` in `pgf@picture` - Use descriptive workflow job ids - Ensure `doc` v2 is loaded for pgfmanual - Ensure active `^^M` is non-expandable in `codeexample` ### Contributors - 3geek14 - BeneIII - graue70 - Gábor Braun - Joel Coffman - Jonathan Spratte - Joseph Wright - Mario Frasca - Michael Kuron - Michal Hoftich - muzimuzhi - PhelypeOleinik - QJLc - Stefan Pinnow ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/base More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/pgf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
