Romano Giannetti submitted the xkcdcolors package. Version number: 1.0 License type: lppl Summary description: xkcd names of colors Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the year 2010, Randall Munroe posted a really fun and nice article on the iconic web of xkcd. He did a very curious experiment: showing colors to a lot of people and asking to name each one. Afterward, he processed the data and sorted the names for each color by popularity --- that means, how many people gave the same name to the same color (no guidance here! Read the post linked above for details). He obtained a nice list of around 950 color names. It's not at all surprising that a lot of people forged CloudyBlue, but some color is really surprising, like for example BabyPoopGreen or DullPink... Now you can use them in LaTeX! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/xkcdcolors More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/xkcdcolors ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: kblocks
by CTAN Announcements 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

Oluwasegun Somefun submitted the kblocks package. Version number: 1.0 License type: mit Summary description: Easily typeset Control Block Diagrams and Signal Flow Graphs Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The kblocks package uses TikZ/ PGF to directly typeset beautiful control block diagrams and signal flow graphs directly with LaTeX. Basically, it defines a number of commands to make drawing control block diagrams using TikZ/ PGF more structured and easier. Like all LaTeX packages, TikZ/PGF inherits the steep learning curve, that is, no what you see is what you get. This macro reduces the length of this learning curve and serves as a frontend, by focusing the graphics package on control block diagrams only. My wish is that you all find it helpful. Don’t forget to share and like. Please feel free to e-mail me for any improvement or suggestion with respect to using kblocks and making it useful for those involved in the applications and field of control theory. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/kblocks More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/kblocks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
