Jonathan Walls submitted the HitType package. Version: 1.0 2025-02-03 License: lppl1.3c nocommercial Summary description: Typesetting Hittite cuneiform Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The HitType package is a LaTeX package, based on the Ullikummi cuneiform fonts created by Dr Sylvie Vanséveren, which aims to create a simple way of typing in Hittite cuneiform. It is platform-agnostic and allows the user to not only easily insert Hittite cuneiform into a PDF, but also allows for formatting in ways which can replicate real-world Hittite texts. The package can also be used with the expex package for interlinear translation and glossing, and examples are given in the documentation which demonstrate such a usage. Its most important features are the ability to insert cuneiform signs without needing to either search manually for a sign in a list or to memorize/reference Unicode codes, and some user-friendly commands which can create heterographic transcription formatting. Each sign is accessed using an uppercase command such as \AC, based on the Latin or syllabic value of each sign according to the Unicode standard, which is included in the documentation. In fact, the package is constructed in such a way that a user could even change out the font for a different font that they prefer with little to no disruption, simply by changing out the .ttf file in the package for the font of their choice (using the same name of UllikummiX.ttf). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/hittype The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/hittype/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Samcarter submitted an update to the TikZducks package. Version: 2.0 2025-01-31 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A little fun package for using rubber ducks in TikZ Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ### New - New options `randomhead` and `randomaccessories`.

Version: 3.10.0-0-g626df6ad 2025-01-27 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Converting and rendering markdown documents inside TeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## 3.10.0 Development: - Add a built-in theme `witiko/diagrams@v2` for drawing different types of diagrams. (#448, #514, #531, #542, [matrix.org][matrix-542], a9cadc41, 578e64d6, 22efe7f4, a3c2d93b, originally suggested by @anubane) [matrix-542]: https://matrix.to/#/!UeAwznpYwwsinVTetR:matrix.org/$CpfhKJT8DAkzH7Rx6ynV1BK… Here is an example LaTeX document using the new theme: ```` tex \documentclass{article} \usepackage[import=witiko/diagrams@v2, relativeReferences]{markdown} \begin{document} \begin{markdown} ``` dot {caption="An example directed graph" width=12cm #dot} digraph tree { margin = 0; rankdir = "LR"; latex -> pmml; latex -> cmml; pmml -> slt; cmml -> opt; cmml -> prefix; cmml -> infix; pmml -> mterms [style=dashed]; cmml -> mterms; latex [label = "LaTeX"]; pmml [label = "Presentation MathML"]; cmml [label = "Content MathML"]; slt [label = "Symbol Layout Tree"]; opt [label = "Operator Tree"]; prefix [label = "Prefix"]; infix [label = "Infix"]; mterms [label = "M-Terms"]; } ``` ``` mermaid {caption="An example mindmap" width=9cm #mermaid} mindmap root )base-idea( sub<br/>idea 1 ((?)) sub<br/>idea 2 ((?)) sub<br/>idea 3 ((?)) sub<br/>idea 4 ((?)) ``` ``` plantuml {caption="An example UML sequence diagram" width=7cm #plantuml} @startuml ' Define participants (actors) participant "Client" as C participant "Server" as S participant "Database" as DB ' Diagram title title Simple Request-Response Flow ' Messages C -> S: Send Request note over S: Process request alt Request is valid S -> DB: Query Data DB -> S: Return Data S -> C: Respond with Data else Request is invalid S -> C: Return Error end @enduml ``` See the diagrams in figures <#dot>, <#mermaid>, and <#plantuml>. \end{markdown} \end{document} ```````` You may use the expl3 prop `\g_markdown_diagrams_infostrings_prop` to register other types of diagrams. - Add option `jekyllDataKeyValue` for routing YAML metadata to expl3 key–values. (#77, #517, [matrix.org][matrix-517], #539, [matrix.org][matrix-539], f57a8c45, originally suggested by @TeXhackse) While the primary intended users of this new option are package authors, writers can also use this feature to configure various (La)TeX packages from YAML: ``` tex \documentclass{article} \usepackage{chemformula, lua-widow-control, phonenumbers} \usepackage[raw_attribute, tex_math_dollars]{markdown} \begin{document} \begin{markdown}[jekyll_data, jekyll_data_key_value] --- chemformula: decimal-marker: $\cdot$ lua-widow-control: draft: true showcolours: true phonenumbers: area-code: place area-code-sep: space country: UK --- Phone number: `\phonenumber{02079460345}`{=tex} Chemical reaction: `\ch{A + B -> 3.14159}`{=tex} \end{markdown} \end{document} ``` This won't work for every package but many packages use expl3 key–values internally for their configuration. If you are curious if your favorite package does, look for `\keys_define` in its source code. For more examples, see #517. [matrix-517]: https://matrix.to/#/!UeAwznpYwwsinVTetR:matrix.org/$WzqBd_p3KB766wqbFBLbn3o… [matrix-539]: https://matrix.to/#/!UeAwznpYwwsinVTetR:matrix.org/$VZbdWB2EpHeg290MGsYsbUE… Fixes: - Allow using the options `linkAttributes` and `notes` together. (#543, #544) Distribution: - Alias the command `markdown-cli` as `markdown2tex`.

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the expltools package. Version number: 2025-01-16 License type: lppl1.3c gpl2+ Summary description: Development tools for expl3 programmers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## expltools 2025-01-16 ### explcheck v0.6.0 #### Development - Add support for TOML configuration files. (#24) You may configure the tool by placing a configuration file named `.explcheckrc` in the current working directory. For example, the following configuration file would increase the maximum line length before the warning S103 (Line too long) is produced from 80 to 120 characters and also disable the warnings W100 (No standard delimiters) and S206 (Missing stylistic whitespaces): ``` toml [options] max_line_length = 120 ignored_issues = ["w100", "s206"] ``` #### Fixes - Do not require lower-case identifiers in the command-line option `--ignored-issues`. (f394d38c) #### Distribution - Add Lua library `lfs` to Docker image `ghcr.io/witiko/expltools/explcheck`. (4f9f26f) This enables additional functionality, such as suggesting which `.ins` file the user should process with TeX to extract expl3 code from a `.dtx` archive. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/expltools More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/expltools ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
