Summary description: Accept CSS-like selectors in tabular, array, …
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The cellprops package reworks the internals of tabular, array, and similar
constructs, and adds a cellprops command accepting CSS-like selectors and
properties. It depends on mdwtab, xcolor and of course expl3 and xparse.
You can use most constructs of mdwtab, but some too hackish usage might
alter the function of cellprops. cellprops uses at most as possible the
public facilites of mdwtab and should thus work with several of table
packages.
It has been tested compatible with several packages (diagbox,
collcell,...), and special care has been taken so that it is compatible
with longtable.

Short description: Create a cross-document bookmark tree.
The package defines the concept of a document bundle, which is a
collection of documents that are to be build separately, but have a
common bookmark tree.
This package takes the bookmarks of each file in doc bundle and merges
them. The merged bookmarks are listed in all the documents of the
document bundle. In this way, a sort of 'table of contents' is
available to all documents in the bundle.
PDF Creator: no restrictions, use dvips->distiller|ps2pdf, pdflatex,
lualatex, or xelatex.

x^6+1 did not work because the numerical derivative 0 led to several
local extrema just next to each other
empty graphs should now not throw any errors anymore

Takuto Asakura submitted an update to the
texdoc
package.
Version number: 3.0
License type: gpl
Summary description: Documentation access for TeX Live
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a big update for Texdoc since 2012!
There are two big features in Texdoc 3.0.
1. New option parser
Now, you can specify multiple options like:
$ texdoc -vsl foo
(this is equivalent to specifying -v -s -l)
Please note that the behavior of the short option -d have
been changed. It *requires* an argument without =, e.g.:
$ texdoc -d score bar
(this is equivalent to specifying --debug=score)
We added a new option -D as a short version of --debug=all.
Please see the help text for more details.
2. Fuzzy search
When the normal search can't find any document in TeX Live,
Texdoc will execute fuzzy search on the list of package names
without user-interactions. The results of fuzzy search are
shown by info message.
(you can see that with the command line option -v)
The default allowance of Levenshtein distance is 5.
You can change this default value by specifying fuzzy_level
in your texdoc.cnf:
fuzzy_level = 3
If fuzzy_level set to 0, the feature will be disabled.
This update also contains several small bug fixes and improvements.
For the quick understanding of the new functions, the slide I used
for a talk in BachoTeX 2018 is available from Speaker Deck:
https://speakerdeck.com/wtsnjp/texdoc3
One more thing (IMPORTANT for distributors): from v3.0, we won't
include Data.tlpdb.lua (the pseudo cache file) in our repository.
If your distribution do not ship the tlpdb, you have to pre-generate
the pseudo cache file to make Texdoc workable.
