Jim Hefferon submitted an update to the latex2e-help-texinfo package. Version number: 2018-07-03 License type: pd Summary description: Unofficial reference manual covering LaTeX2e Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- We have updated the unofficial LaTeX2e reference manual. 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. The package home page (with links to mailing lists, formatted versions, etc.) is https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/software/latexrefman/. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/info/latex2e-help-texinfo More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex2e-help-texinfo We are supported by the TeX User Groups.

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.
