Nicola Talbot submitted the datatool-regions package. Version: 1.0 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Region (Numeric) Support for datatool v3.0+ Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The datatool-regions bundle provides the language-independent region ldf files for the datatool package (v3.0+). The *.ldf files should all be placed on TeX's path. These files don't require any explicit loading. They will automatically be input by datatool-base.sty (or relevant supplementary package) if they are found and required by the tracklang localisation settings. See the datatool v3.0+ manual for further details. The region files deal with defining (if applicable) the currency symbol and switching to the region's currency in the region's hook. Region files may additionally (if not dependent on the language) set the number group and decimal characters (for formatting and parsing), and provide functions for parsing numeric dates and times. **This is being released in advance of the upcoming datatool v3.0 release.** These files will be ignored by existing versions of datatool. Only a limited number of regions are currently included. Additional regions can be added via pull request on GitHub https://github.com/nlct/datatool-regions -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/datatool-regions More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/datatool-regions -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: gregoriotex
by CTAN Announcements 01 Mar '25

01 Mar '25

Fr. Samuel Springuel submitted an update to the gregoriotex package. Version: 6.1.0 License: gpl3 Summary description: Engraving Gregorian Chant scores Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the release intended to go into TeX Live 2025. ### Fixed - Multiple Scribus render frames were all using the same file name, which would result in the same score appearing in all render frames. This change makes the score files use an available Scribus variable to force multiple file names. - When kpsewhich cannot write to a particular location, it generates an error which is directed to stderr but not to our glog file. This created an undocumented error when trying to write to a gtex file to a bad location. We now capture stderr output produced when compiling scores and redirect it to our glog file so that the error is properly recorded. Fixes [#1541](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1541). - Fixed the interaction between hyphens and styles. See [#1538](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1538). - Fixed the loss of ongoing styles when a syllable starts with a forced center. See [#1551](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1551). - Fixed first syllables of one letter with a style causing a segfault. See [#1585](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1585). - Fixed a bug that caused a custos to sometimes change into a clef. See [#1373](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1373). - Fixed the alignment of 2-line initials so that an initial's baseline more exactly aligns with the baseline of the lowest line it appears next to. - When fancyhdr and GregorioTeX are used together, GregorioTeX's disabling of hyphenation and its `post_linebreak` modification of the `post_linebreak_filter` interfere with multiline headers. Using the `fancyhdr/before` and `fancyhdr/after` hooks we temporarily reenable hyphenation and disable our `post_linebreak` modification while headers and footers are being processed in the middle of a score. See [#1603](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1603). - Fixed a bug that could cause a hyphen to appear on the wrong line. See [#1319](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1319). - Fixed the placement of above-lines text (`<alt>`) relative to a note above the staff or when the number of staff lines is not 4. See [#1613](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1613) and [#1614](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1614). - Fixed a bug where the above-lines text (`<alt>`) could collide with a note above the staff. See [#1613](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1613). - Fixed a bug that could cause the clef and staff to be printed too high. See [#1503](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1503). ### Changed - Modified gregorio to write to the log file specified as an argument and to send all messages to it (except errors about opening the log file itself). See [#1541](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1541) and [#1628](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1628). - Defined an output directory for gtex and glog files. Default is `tmp-gre`. This can be changed using `\gresetoutputdir{...}`. Fixes [#1393](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1393), [#1542](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1542), and [#1571](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1571). - GregorioTeX no longer searches for and reuses existing gtex files using kpathsea; it only looks in the output directory. - If gtex or glog files from other versions of gregorio are found either in the same directory as the gabc file or in the output directory, they are deleted. - gabc.vim has been expanded into a proper vim plugin. ### Added - Added a configurable setting `\gresetunisonbreakbehavior` to control automatic line breaks between unison notes above a syllable. Defaults to `breakable` for backwards compatibility, but may be set to `unbreakable` if that behavior is desired. See [#1504](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1504). - Added the ability to fuse upwards to a virga. See [#1558](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1558) - Added the ability to use the "stroke" form of a clivis instead of the default two-notes form by specifying `[shape:stroke]` after the clivis to change. See [#1558](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1558) - Allow `\gresetinitiallines{n}` where `n` is any number of lines (a non-negative integer). The manual linebreaks (`z`) that used to be required for 2-line initials are no longer required. See [#1488](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1488). Added new options `\gresetinitialanchor` and `\gresetinitialposition` to control the placement of initials. - Added new alterations: soft flat (X) and sharp (##), which appear when there is no previous flat or sharp (respectively) in effect, and soft natural (Y), which appears when there is a previous flat or sharp in effect. A new option `\gresetalterationeffect` determines what the "effect" of an alteration is. It defaults to `line`, which is useful for Dominican chant. See [#157](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/157) and also [#1575](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1575). - 9 new St. Gall neume glyphs have been added to the `gregall` font. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/gregoriotex More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/gregoriotex -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: spreadtab
by CTAN Announcements 28 Feb '25

28 Feb '25

Christian Tellechea submitted an update to the spreadtab package. Version: 0.6 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Spreadsheet features for LaTeX tabular environments Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- spreatab v0.6 ------------- New in v0.6: 1. l3fp is now the only possible calculation engine, so it is mandatory to use a version of LaTeX later than the integration of xfp into the kernel on 2022/06/01. 2. Support for the old fp calculation engine is permanently discontinued. 3. The package options are discontinued since there is no longer a choice of calculation engine. 4. The environment now operates in a semi-simple group. 5. The simplekv package is loaded to use the key/value system. The macro \STset{keys=values} is made available. 6. /!\ Change in syntax: the optional argument of \begin{spreatdab} now exclusively accepts keys/values, and thus: * \STsavecell is replaced by the key "save list." * \STdebug and \STdisplaytab are replaced by the key "debug." This will break the previous use of the optional argument, but this change is required! 7. If \STxp is present in the table, the macro triggers the full expansion of its argument when reading the table. 8. The macro \STmakegtag is removed. Assignments via the macro-function 'tag' are always global due to point 4. 9. The 'tag' function, if the key "tag to aux" key is set to 'true', writes the assignments to the .aux file. 10. The key "aux save list" with value 'macroA=cellA, macroB=cellB,...' writes the assignments to the .aux file. 11. The macros \STautoround, \STsetdecimalsep, \STeol, \STsetdisplaymarks, \STmessage, \STnumericfieldmarker, \STtranposechar, and \STtextcell, although still functional (but no longer documented), will be removed in the next version in favor of \STset{key=value}. 12. The macro-functions 'ifeq', 'ifgt', and 'iflt' will be removed in the next version since l3fp has the '?' operator. 13. Formatting, cleaning, and code improvements. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/spreadtab More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/spreadtab -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Version: 3.5 2025-02-26 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Bundle together all the files needed to build a LaTeX document Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- bundledoc is a post-processor for the snapshot package that bundles together all the classes, packages, and files needed to build a given LaTeX document. It reads the .dep file that snapshot produces, finds each of the files mentioned therein, and archives them into a single .tar.gz (or .zip, or whatever) file, suitable for moving across systems, transmitting to a colleague, etc. As an added bonus, this distribution includes a small script called arlatex. arlatex is a LaTeX-specific archiving program that combines a bunch of files into a single .tex file. When the .tex file is run through latex, all of the original files are recreated and the LaTeX document is built. bundledoc can be easily configured to use arlatex as its archiver in place of tar, zip, etc. Version 3.5 of bundledoc is more robust to filenames containing characters that are special to the shell. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/bundledoc The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/bundledoc/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: expltools
by CTAN Announcements 26 Feb '25

26 Feb '25

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the expltools package. Version: 2025-02-25 License: lppl1.3c gpl2+ Summary description: Development tools for expl3 programmers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Version: 2025-02-24 ### explcheck v0.7.0 #### Development - Generate a static web site for the exploration of issues in all expl3 files from TeX Live. (discussed with @norbusan and @koppor in #28 and #32, implemented in <https://github.com/koppor/explcheck-issues> by @koppor) The web site is available here: <https://koppor.github.io/explcheck-issues/>. - Add support for config file sections `[filename."=E2=80=A6"]` for specifying file-specific configuration. (#32, #57, #62) For example, here is how you might configure a file `expl3-code.tex` from your configuration file `.explcheckrc`: ``` toml [filename."expl3-code.tex"] expl3_detection_strategy =3D "always" ignored_issues =3D ["w200", "w202", "e209"] max_line_length =3D 140 ``` - Pre-configure well-known files from current TeX Live with more than 100 error detections in <https://koppor.github.io/explcheck-issues/>. (#32, #57, #62) - Add command-line option `--error-format` and Lua option `error_format`. (discussed with @koppor in koppor/errorformat-to-html#2, added in #40, 5034639, and #43) This allows users to specify Vim's quickfix errorformat used for the machine-readable output when the command-line option `--porcelain` or the Lua option `porcelain` is enabled. - Add command-line option `--expl3-detection-strategy` and Lua option `expl3_detection_strategy`. (drafted and discussed with @koppor in #38, added in #49) - Add command-line option `--make-at-letter` and Lua option `make_at_letter`. (discussed with @zepinglee in #30 and #36, added in #61) These options determine how the at sign (`@`) should be tokenized. The default value `"auto"` automatically determines the category code based on context cues. #### Fixes - Prevent false positive E102 (Unknown argument specifiers) detections for control sequences with multiple colons (`::`). (#62) - Ensure that whole files are considered to be in expl3 when the Lua option `expl3_detection_strategy` is set to `"always"`, even when the files contain standard delimiters `\ProvidesExpl*`. (#62) This also prevents false positive E102 (expl3 material in non-expl3 parts) detections. - Only report warning S103 (Line too long) in expl3 parts. (#38, #49) - In machine-readable output, report the line and column number 1 for file-wide issues. (reported by @koppor in #39, fixed in #40) - Exclude comments from maximum line length checks. (reported by @muzimuzhi in #27, fixed in #43, #58, and #59) This includes spaces before the comments. - Always accept both lower- and upper-case issue identifiers. (reported by @muzimuzhi in #26, fixed in #44) This includes Lua options and configuration files, in addition to command-line options and inline TeX comments. - Exclude "weird" argument specifiers (`:w`) from warning W200. (reported by @muzimuzhi in #25, fixed in #45) - Remove error E203 (Removed control sequences). (reported by @koppor in #53, fixed in #54) - Fix two instances of explcheck crashing while processing input files. (reported by @koppor in #31, fixed in #52 and #59) - Do not recognize `@` as a part of an expl3 control sequence. (reported by @zepinglee in #30 and #37, fixed in #60) This prevents warnings S205 and S206 for LaTeX2e control sequence (re)definitions. #### Deprecation - Deprecate the command-line option `--expect-expl3-everywhere` and remove the Lua option `expect_expl3_everywhere`. (#49) Use the command-line option `--expl3-detection-strategy=3Dalways` or the corresponding Lua option `expl3_detection_stragegy=3D "always"` instead. - Deprecate the default config file section `[options]`. (#62) Rename the section to `[defaults]` instead. #### Documentation - Add SPDX license identifier to `README.md`. (added by @koppor in #50) - Link a list of all currently supported issues from `README.md`. (added by @koppor in #51) - Link <https://koppor.github.io/explcheck-issues/> from `README.md`. (#28, #32, b774ba77) #### Continuous integration - Continuously run explcheck on all packages in historical TeX Live Docker images. (suggested by @hansonchar in #28 and #31, added in #52 and #56) - Use ShellCheck to check code style of Bash scripts. (#61) #### Housekeeping - Make off-by-one errors less likely when working with byte ranges. (#47, #48, 13ebfc6e, a0923d06) #### Artwork - Add artwork by https://www.quickcartoons.com/ to directory `artwork/`. (566769b) Version: 2025-02-25 ### explcheck v0.7.1 #### Development - Add support for config file sections `[package.…]` for specifying package-specific configuration. (#32, #57, #62, #63) For example, here is how you might configure the file `expl3-code.tex` from the package `l3kernel` in your configuration file `.explcheckrc`: ``` toml [package.l3kernel] expl3_detection_strategy = "always" ignored_issues = ["w200", "w202", "e208", "e209"] max_line_length = 140 ``` - Add value `"never"` for the command-line option `--expl3-detection-strategy` and the Lua option `expl3_detection_strategy`. (#63) - Pre-configure all remaining expl3 files from current TeX Live with more than 1 error in <https://koppor.github.io/explcheck-issues/>. (#32, #57, #62, #63, 4bf5597e, d074dbef) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/expltools The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/expltools/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
