CTAN Update: etoc
by CTAN Announcements 03 Mar '13

03 Mar '13

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the etoc package. Summary description: easily customisable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.07e [2013/03/01] The minor updates during the previous month have brought some various improvments to the code, and relatively important changes: * v1.07b removed the xspace previously used in etocname, etocnumber, etocpage. This could mean that some sources will have to be edited, my apologies for that. * v1.07e (this update) completely modifies the (unsatisfactory) use of penalties and vertical spaces in the package `own line styles'. The changes could cause documents having made use of these etoc default line styles to compile a bit differently, my apologies for that. The documentation has been gradually extended to include more and more examples of various uses of the package. Are now explained, among others: * an example of an `inline' TOC with the subsections and the sub-subsections being typeset as footnotes to the sections, * an example of a TOC using the LaTeX default layout except for the subsections of one given section, * an example of a TOC listing all TOCs of the documents, * an example of a subsection which is itself a TOC on three columns displaying all subsections of the document, * and the latest addition: a TOC displayed as a tree. (uses tikz and package tikz-qtree). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc/ .

Summary description: Routines for constrained scaling and stretching of objects, relative to a reference object or in absolute terms License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The scalerel package provides four commands for vertically scaling and stretching objects.

This feature can be useful in both equations and schematic diagrams. Additionally, the scaling and stretching commands offer constraints on maximum width and/or minimum aspect ratio, which are often used to preserve legibility or for general appearance sake. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/scalerel .

Notice: removal of Ghostscript from CTAN
by CTAN Announcements 26 Feb '13

26 Feb '13

the CTAN team have long maintained mirrors of third-party products, that have some relevance for TeX and related applications. unfortunately, we now find that many such sites have changed so that it is very difficult to keep up with modifications automatically. an important example is ghostscript; our mirroring mechanism has failed, and CTAN had been holding a version several releases old. i have therefore deleted the ghostscript sub-tree from the archive, and modified the ghostscript catalogue entry to direct potential users to the ghostscript home page. our apologies for any inconvenience.

CTAN Update: babel-beta
by CTAN Announcements 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

Javier Bezos submitted an update to the babel-beta package. Summary description: Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the second beta release of babel 3.9. The main aims of this version are to fix bugs (there were lots) and to add basic support for xetex and luatex. Here is a list of most of the new and extended macros: -- usershorthands* is like useshorthands but it makes sure shorthands are always activated. -- defineshorthands can be used to (re)define system and language shorthands, and a new level for language-dependent user shorthands is added, which takes precedence over normal user shorthands. -- shorthandoff* restores the original catcode or definition (useful with ~ and ^). -- AfterBabelLanguage sets code to be executed at the end of the corresponding ldf file. -- abelhyphen inserts a hyphen (soft, hard, nobreak...). -- abelhyphenation is like hyphenation but for all languages or specific ones (lccode changes are taken into account). -- AddBabelHook sets code to be executed at some events (EnableBabelHook and DisableBabelHook control them). -- StartBabelCommands, SetString, and a few more, may be used to define encoding dependent captions (eg, utf8 for xetex and luatex) New package options: -- shorthands sets which language/system shorthands are allowed. -- safe sets if bib and/or ref macros are redefined. -- config sets a different config file. -- main sets the main language. -- headfoot sets the language in heads and foots. -- noconfigs: .cfg files are not loaded. -- showlanguages prints to the log file the languages preloaded -- math sets the behaviour of shorthands in math mode in the format. I hope the final version will be available by March/April. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/exptl/babel-beta .
