CTAN Update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 05 Nov '13

05 Nov '13

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.09f License type: lppl Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- New features: * xintZapSpaces /completely expandably/ removes both leading and ending space tokens (char code 32) from its input. The input is not altered in any other way. The variant xintZapSpacesB additionally transforms <spaces>{braced}<spaces in braced (now unbraced...). xintZapFirstSpaces and xintZapLastSpaces do what their name indicate. The input may contain unmatched if, fi tokens etc... but top level space tokens are assumed to be of character code 32, as this works with delimited macros. * the completely expandable xintCSVtoList now strips out all spaces around commas or at the start and end of the list of the comma separated items (using xintZapSpacesB). * the non completely expandable xintFor et al. all similarly now removes all spaces around commas. * xintFor et al. are extended to accept all macro parameters from #1 to #9 (in arbitrary order); this will prove very useful for those who need to typeset a tabular on 9-dimensional paper. I plan on issuing at some point a spin-off package with the macros above (all those described in the documentation section on the Utilities provided by xint.sty). Perhaps xintZapSpaces could be made into a little package of its own; or the package should contain only what is necessary for xintFor and its variants. Feedback will be welcome on whether this is worthwile and if the thing should, as the xint bundle packages, be made available to all macro formats or only as a LaTeX package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

They act as in etoolbox boolean expressions (togl requires etoolbox, as it gives the truth value of the named toggle), and may be freely combined using the logic operators &, |, or functions all, any, xor, etc... * new conditional xintifboolexpr {<expr>}{YES}{NO}, where <expr> is written in the xintexpr recognized infix syntax, * the (non-expandable) utility xintApplyInline has been enhanced to be usable in contexts such as alignments where the applied macro may close groups, * xintFor is a new kind of for loop: it uses #1, #2, #3, #4 rather than macros to represent the (comma separated) list items; e.g. xintFor #1 in {a,b,c} do { extbf{#1}}. Despite not being completely expandable, it is nestable, and usable to generate rows in alignments, as it survives the closing of groups via its replacement text, * xintSeq expandably generates arithmetic sequences.
