Version: 3.9.1-0-g92254dfb 2024-12-17 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Converting and rendering markdown documents inside TeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Development: - Add version `v1` of the new built-in theme `witiko/diagrams`. (#514, #531, #538) This version is an alias for an earlier theme named `witiko/dot`. Future versions of the theme may have backwards-incompatible syntax and behavior, see the discussion in #514 and #531. Therefore, you are encouraged to always specify the version `v1` to keep your documents from suddenly breaking. The Markdown package will warn you if you don't. Fixes: - Make option `eagerCache` safe to use with plain LuaTeX. (#530, witiko/lt3luabridge#29) Documentation: - Add artwork by <https://fiverr.com/quickcartoon> to directory `artwork/`. (#533) You are welcome to use these artworks in your promotional materials, provided you comply with the license terms specified for each piece. Typically, proper attribution to the artist is required. Defaults: - In LaTeX, fix bad interaction between heading identifiers and the class name `{.unnumbered}` (also written as `{-}`). (#511, 3d2e81d4, reported by @jurf) Continuous Integration: - Use explcheck to check expl3 code in the continuous integration. (#535, #536, b4e3bfcd) Deprecation: - Soft-deprecate the name of the built-in theme `witiko/dot` in favor of the new built-in theme `witiko/diagrams@v1`. (#514, #531, #538) Distribution: - Make `markdown-cli` executable and symlink it to system directories. (#534, #537, [tex-live(a)tug.org][tex-live-2024-12-050952]) [tex-live-2024-12-050952]: https://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2024-December/050952.html Tests: - Reenable `eagerCache` in tests for plain LuaTeX.

Reuben Thomas submitted an update to the pdfjam package. Version: 4.00 License: gpl2+ Summary description: Shell scripts interfacing to pdfpages Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * Major version bumped to 4.00 to reflect major refactoring, and some minor backwards-incompatible changes. * New co-maintainer. * Several minor bug fixes. * New option `--builddir path` to build in `path` instead of a temporary directory. Overwrites files in `path` without further notice. * In the constructed tex file, included files are now referenced as `source-1.pdf` etc. instead of `/tmp/pdfjam-XXXXXX/source-1.pdf`. This improves reproducibility and allows referencing with hyperref. * Put every `--preamble` argument on distinct line in tex file. * Automatically add braces around values where necessary. Thus, one can now write `--papersize 7cm,3cm` and `--picturecommand '\put(20,20){Text}'`. * Support libpaper1 in addition to libpaper2 to obtain system default paper. * Support `--paper a4` etc. as alternative to `--paper a4paper`. * Support `--papersize 595,842` as alternative to `--papersize 595bp,842bp`. Prevents people adding unit `pt` where they actually mean `bp`. * Mirror page when `--papersize` and `--landscape` given. * Renames duplex edge flipping options `--longedge` to `--otheredge` and `--shortedge` to `--no-otheredge` to reflect their actual behaviour. * Support `--keepinfo --pdfauthor ''` to discard only the corresponding field while keeping the remaining pdfinfo. * Adds lots of regression and integration tests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/pdfjam The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/pdfjam/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

samcarter submitted an update to the TikZlings package. Version number: 2.0 2024-12-11 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: A collection of cute little animals and similar creatures Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ### New - Sandra, the ape (kindly contributed by @NuzzleTOO) - Ambrogio, the meerkat (originally designed by @CarLaTeX) - new accessories: banana and stick with leaf (kindly contributed by @NuzzleTOO) - added DEPENDS.txt file - new `leftstep` and `rightstep` options for the anteater, bug, coati, mode and squirrel - new `ears`, `hands`, `belly`, `feet` and `tail` options to colour body parts of the elephant - new option `horn` to change the colour of the rhinos horn - new accessories: sombrero hat (thanks to @CarLaTeX for contributing it) ### Changed - **Breaking change:** changed the reference point for body colour in several TikZlings (bears, chicken, coatis, hippos, pandas, pigs, rhinos, sheep, sloths). Previously the body colour didn't exactly specify the colour of the body, instead the body might have been drawn in a lighter or darker shade of the colour. This trick was used because it is easier to add white to a colour than to make the colour brighter. However the downside was that the range of possible colours was servely limited. For example the hippo used a 50% lighter shade for the body. Even if one choose black as the darkest possible body colour, one would still only get a medium gray hippo. Now the user can choose exactly the colour they want. - The default colours where adjusted to ensure that the TikZlings still look the same in v2.0, but if users previously used the `body=...` option, the result might now look different. ### Fixed - fixed bug in bug code (typo in hook name) - problem with bumps on sheep for negative scaling factors ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/tikzlings More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/tikzlings ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the perltex package. Version number: 2.3 License type: lppl Summary description: Define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PerlTeX is a combination Perl script (perltex.pl) and LaTeX package (perltex.sty) that, together, give the user the ability to define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code. Once defined, a Perl macro becomes indistinguishable from any other LaTeX macro. PerlTeX thereby combines LaTeX's typesetting power with Perl's programmability. PerlTeX will make use of persistent named pipes, and thereby run more efficiently, on operating systems that offer them (mostly Unix-like systems). Also provided is a switch to generate a PerlTeX-free, document-specific, noperltex.sty that is useful when distributing a document to users who may not have access to PerlTeX. Version 2.3 alters the implementation of the LaTeX package to work around a change made in the LaTeX3 kernel that breaks PerlTeX. Thanks to Christian Hove Claussen for the bug report. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/perltex More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/perltex ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: postnotes
by CTAN Announcements 05 Dec '24

05 Dec '24

gusbrs submitted an update to the postnotes package. Version: 0.5.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Endnotes for LaTeX Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## v0.5.0 (2024-12-03) ### Changed - The support for running headers in `\printpostnotes`, which previously generated its data by means of an internal cross-reference structure, has migrated to use the generalized mark mechanism provided by the `ltmarks` kernel module instead. This was a long due change, since `ltmarks` is *the* right tool for the task, but unfortunately was not available when `postnotes` was originally developed and released. In practice, we get improved functionality replacing what was a complicated cross-reference setup with a straightforward application of `ltmarks`. Very neat, if I may say so. Hat tip to `ltmarks` devs. ### Deprecated - The header support variables `\pnhdpagefirst`, `\pnhdpagelast`, `\pnhdchapfirst`, `\pnhdchaplast`, `\pnhdsectfirst`, `\pnhdsectlast`, `\pnhdnamefirst`, and `\pnhdnamelast` are deprecated in favor of the new `ltmarks` based mark classes. - For the sake of stability, the package still provides a "legacy" version of these variables, set using `ltmarks` data. This is meant to provide a window of opportunity for users to migrate to the new system smoothly, but *migrate you must*, since *these variables will be removed in the future*. Migrating should range somewhere between "very easy" and "trivial", and intervention is only needed if you used any of these variables to build custom headers. See the User manual for updated examples. - Also note that this "legacy version" of the variables require one more compilation run to converge, so there's also a clear benefit for you to adjust sooner rather than later. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/postnotes More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/postnotes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Jérôme Plût submitted the euclidean-lattice package. Version: 1.0 2024-07-26 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Draw two-dimensional Euclidean lattices with TikZ Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I am pleased to upload the package `euclidean-lattice.sty` to simplify the drawing of two-dimensional Euclidean lattices using TikZ. This package provides a single command, `lattice`, which draws the lattice generated by any pair of two-dimensional vectors, together with options to set the bouding box of the drawing and the style for drawing the lattice points (and optionally the lattice grid). All computations are performed in an efficient way, which could prove useful in particular in the case of presentations with overlays and animations (where the same computation could possibly be performed a large number of times). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/euclidean-lattice The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/euclidean-lattice/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Version: 0.5.0 2024-11-25 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Clever LaTeX cross-references based on zref Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ### Added - Swedish localization (see issue [#35](https://github.com/gusbrs/zref-clever/issues/35)). ### Changed - The `declension` option from `zcDeclareLanguage`, the `case` option from `zcLanguageSetup`, and the `d` general option (from `zcref`) have been renamed to `variants`, `variant`, and `v`, respectively. This is a semantic generalization of the existing infrastructure.

See discussion at issue [#35] (https://github.com/gusbrs/zref-clever/issues/35). ### Deprecated - The `declension` option from `zcDeclareLanguage`, the `case` option from `zcLanguageSetup`, and the `d` general option (from `zcref`) have been deprecated in favor of their new names. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/zref-clever The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/zref-clever/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
