CTAN Update: l3kernel + l3packages + l3experimental
by CTAN Announcements 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

The LaTeX3 Project submitted an update to the l3kernel + l3packages + l3experimental packages. Version number: SVN 5015 License type: lppl Summary description: Higher-level LaTeX3 concepts Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Snapshot of SVN 5105 ==================== Changes in this release focus primarily on minimising dependency of expl3 on other packages and on having consistent behaviour across the supported engines (pdfTeX, XeTeX, LuaTeX). The team have developed a new build system to support this: while this does not 'show up' directly, it has resulted in a number of code improvements. The build system itself will be made generally available as a stand-alone product in the near future: full details will be given at that point. Changes: - Use expl3 native graphic drivers as standard rather than those from LaTeX2e - Move experimental l3luatex code out of l3kernel: this requires more work before inclusion in the 'stable' release bundle - Remove use of ifpdf package: with the standard settings, expl3 now requires only the LaTeX2e kernel and etex package to load - pdf_strcmp:D is now only defined if a primitive: an internal wrapper \__str_if_eq_x:nn is now used for all engines (similar to pdf@strcmp in the pdftexcmds package) - Bug fix for pdfstrcmp emulation in LuaTeX: # tokens are now handled correctly in all cases - Bug fixes for native drivers: negative scaling and descender depths are now handled correctly - Bug fix for l3keys: attempting to 'nest' choice keys (set the code for a choice to itself be a choice) raises an error - l3file now allows spaces in file names and quotes them in the web2c style: surround tokens only if the file name contains spaces - Performance enhancement for l_if_single:n(TF) - int_step_... functions now evaluate all three INT arguments at the start of the loop - dim_to_pt:n/dim_to_unit:nn are now fully expandable; the input syntax is now restricted to 'properly formed' dimensions (i.e. exactly one unit must be given) - l3fp-old, which contained some code to support the older, non-expandable FPU syntax, is removed entirely - gind.ist is used for index sorting rather than l3doc.ist - Improved error messages in l3regex ---------------------------------------------------------------------- These packages are located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3kernel/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3packages/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3experimental/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3kernel http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3packages http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3experimental We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the mf2pt1 package. Version number: 2.5a License type: lppl Summary description: Produce PostScript Type 1 fonts from Metafont source. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. mf2pt1's advantage over tools such as TeXtrace and mftrace is that it does not rely on bitmap tracing and therefore can produce higher-quality Type 1 fonts than trace-based tools. The catch is that mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input so it is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. Version 2.5a is simply a documentation update in preparation for TeX Live 2014. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/mf2pt1 More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/mf2pt1 We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Charles Staats III submitted the asypictureB package. Version number: 0.3 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: User-friendly integration of Asymptote into LaTeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The asypictureB package is an unofficial alternative to the asymptote package for creating Asymptote pictures within a latex source file. While it does not duplicate all the features of the official package, it is more user-friendly in several ways. Most notably, Asymptote errors are repackaged as LaTeX errors, making debugging less of a pain. It also has a more robust mechanism for identifying unchanged pictures that need not be recompiled. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/asypictureb More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/asypictureB We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: ionumbers
by CTAN Announcements 17 Apr '14

17 Apr '14

Christian Schneider submitted an update to the ionumbers package. Version number: v0.3.3 License type: gpl Summary description: Restyle numbers in maths mode Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This update fixes a problem with MnSymbol (and potentially other packages changing the font in math mode). Ionumbers assigns macro definitions to certain characters in math mode. Previously, the original mathcodes of these characters were hard-coded into ionumbers and did not match those defined by MnSymbol. For example, '-' in the input turned into '+' in the output, if used with MnSymbol. The update uses the mathcodes that the characters have at the beginning of the document instead. Thanks to Michael Sebastian Hitziger for reporting this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ionumbers/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ionumbers We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
