New on CTAN: tikz-network
by CTAN Announcements 31 Jul '18

Jürgen Hackl submitted the tikz-network package. Version number: 1.0 License type: gpl3+ Summary description: Draw networks with TikZ Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In recent years, complex network theory becomes more and more popular within the scientific community. Besides a solid mathematical base on which these theories are built on, a visual representation of the networks allow communicating complex relationships to a broad audience. Nowadays, a variety of great visualization tools are available, which helps to structure, filter, manipulate and of course to visualize the networks. However, they come with some limitations, including the need for specific software tools, difficulties to embed the outputs properly in a LaTeX file (e.g. font type, font size, additional equations and math symbols needed,...) and challenges in the post-processing of the graphs, without rerunning the software tools again. In order to overcome this issues, the package **tikz-network*** was created. Since LaTeX is a standard for scientific publications and widely used, there is a high chance that users are already familiar with the syntax and the structure of this language. Beside LaTeX, no other software tool is needed. The commands of **tikz-network** are kept simple but allow a high control over the produced output. Post-processing of the network (e.g. adding drawings, images, texts, equations,...) can be done easily, due to the compatibility with PGF/TikZ (Tantau 2015). Also, the embedding of the network visualization into the LaTeX-environment enables the use of the fonts, font sizes, mathematical symbols, hyperlinks, references,..., as used in the document. Additional features are the three-dimensional visualization of (multilayer) networks, and the compatible with other layout and visualization tools (e.g. igraph, netwrokx, QGIS, ...). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/tikz-network The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/tikz-network ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Julien Rivaud submitted the statistics package. Version number: 2.0 License type: gpl3+ Summary description: Compute and typeset statistics tables and graphics Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The statistics package can compute and typeset statistics tables containing frequencies, cumulative distribution functions (increasing or decreasing, in frequency or absolute count domain), from the counts of individual values, or ranges, or even the raw value list with repetitions. It can also compute and draw a bar diagram in case of individual values, or, when the data repartition is known from ranges, an histogram or the continuous cumulative distribution function. For teaching purposes, you can ask statistics to display no result, selective results or all of them. Similarly statistics can draw only some parts of the graphs. Every part of the generated tables or graphics is customizable. There is extensive documentation that I can improve if it is unclear, and I commit to stability and not breaking existing documents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/statistics More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/statistics We are supported by the TeX User Groups.

This pair of packages was motivated by a friend, who was preparing Bible studies lessons using a combination of the application e-Sword (http://www.e-sword.net/) and LaTeX. He wanted a `database' of Bible verses from which he could simply `fetch' passages into the LaTeX source file. What's new (2018/07/11) Defined a new command fetchversestxt; the command has the same arguments as fetchverses, but it does not expand to typeset content. Rather, it defines two commands versetxt and passagetxt. These two are the passage reference and the passage for that verse but with all LaTeX styling and font changes. See fetchversestxt.tex for a demonstration of this new command, with applications. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/fetchbibpes The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fetchbibpes/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

There are many changes in this version. We have gone through the two documents latex-info and latex2e-reference and made sure that this document contains all the information about user-level commands that those documents contain. There have also been other changes, including switching to a single unified index, a more uniform entry format, and many more examples and error messages. There are a number of entirely new entries such as ones on strut, caligraphic math fonts, oldmath, and blackboard bold. There have also been adjustments to the organization such as having separate sections for part, chapter, etc., and some combinations such as that of clearpage and cleardoublepage. In addition, there were many bug fixes, including greatly shrinking the size of one of the graphics. The English version and the French version track closely, although they are separate projects on CTAN. The Spanish version needs a maintainer. Suggestions, bug reports, all discussion and contributions are welcome.

CTAN update: arabluatex

Robert Alessi submitted an update to the arabluatex package. Version number: 1.12 2018-06-24 License type: gpl3+ cc-by-sa-4 Summary description: An ArabTeX-like interface for LuaLaTeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- arabluatex v1.12: This release includes many long-awaited features. Actually, arabluatex is getting close to v2.0: - abjad now accepts commands and counters as arguments, so that almost anything can be abjad-numbered: pages, lists, &c. - Introduction of LPeg patterns, making it possible to accept almost any LaTeX command in Arabic environments. Regular footnotes and LR/LRfootnotes have been extensively tested, along with those of packages such as manyfoot. - Much more tolerant MkArbBreak and new MkArbBreak* which directs arabluatex to close the current Arabic environment before any 'declared' command, then resume it just after (to be used with great caution though). - Color support! arabluatex is now able to render in color either words, parts of words (syllabes) or even diacritics without losing any of the refined ligatures featured by such beautiful Arabic fonts as Amiri. Section 7 of the documentation goes into details, although some of the techniques implemented require a good acquaintance with arabtex coding. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/arabluatex More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/arabluatex We are supported by the TeX User Groups.

Julien Rivaud submitted the gatherenum package. Version: 1.7 2018-06-19 License: gpl3+ Summary description: A crossover of align* and enumerate Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The gatherenum package (ab)uses the inline enumeration capabilities of enumitem to add a « displayed » enumeration mode, triggered by adding |gathered| to the key-val option list of the enumerate environment. The end result is similar to a regular enumerate environment wrapped in a multicols environment, with the following advantages: * gathered enumerate can pack items depending on their actual width rather than a fixed, constant number per line. * it fills items in a line-major order (instead of column-major order), which my students found less confusing. YMMV. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/gatherenum The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/gatherenum/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Norbert Preining submitted the ketcindy package. Version number: 20180617.0 License type: gpl3+ Summary description: Creating graphics for TeX using Cinderella Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- KeTCindy combines a plugin to Cinderella with free mathematical software (R, Maxima, ...) to produce high-quality LaTeX graphics.
