logictools
package.
Version: 0.1.0 2025-05-03
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Additional tools for typesetting formal logic
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The logictools package is here! If you find yourself typesetting
formal logic often, you should check it out! The star of the show
is the formallogic environment, that makes it easy and fast to
typeset good looking logic.
Prior to the development of this environment, spending way too much
time fiddling around with spacing commands was a familiar experience
for every logician.
Most of the spacing you need in a logical statement is context sensitive,
so only so much can be done through basic macros.
Furthermore, using too many macros destroys the readability of the code,
and slows down writing to a crawl.
In an effort to change this, I wrote an environment that both speeds up
writing formal logic (by offering shorter syntax) and improves the output
considerably.
The default settings were made with LaTeX's default math font in mind,
with the intention that the user come up with a preset that matches
their preferences. The options can be changed on the fly, so more than
one preset can be used in different parts of the document.
Other than this, the option `oxford' will load a few neat macros
that might be of particular interest to those studying logic at the
University of Oxford; they provide shortcuts to notations that are
commonly used in the first-year courses.

John H. Lienhard submitted an update to the
mitthesis
package.
Version: 1.20 2025-05-02
License: mit
Summary description: A LaTeX template for an MIT thesis
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mitthesis class formats an MIT thesis or dissertation according to the
current requirements of the MIT Libraries. This template is appropriate for MIT
theses of all types. It can be adapted for other institutions, if desired.
This update includes user-level examples of simple customization of the design,
through the [mydesign] key value option. A two-column nomenclature format
(nomenclature*) has been added. Minor changes have been made to the default
citation and reference styles. Other code tuning has been done under the hood,
but these should be unnoticed by the driver.
With appropriate class options and up-to-date software, mitthesis.cls can
produce pdf files that meet the PDF/UA2 and tagged PDF standards and the WTPDF
1.0 accessibility and reuse profiles (https://demo.verapdf.org/, v1.28.1).
Several examples of compliant files are included in the distribution.
The 2022/11/01 LaTeX format is the recommended minimum version.

This is a minor update of package GFDL. It adds a package
option for using small caps instead of capital letters in
the documentation files. With this release, the auxiliary
TeX files are also generated using the dtx file. It’s a
beautiful coincidence that the update of the package
supporting a leftist license like GFDL is getting released
on the labour day!
