Soumendra Ganguly submitted an update to the
fretplot
package.
Version: 0.0.3 2025-09-15
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Create scale and chord diagrams for guitar-like instruments
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in this new version:
1. Copying code from some of the examples in the documentation pdf
(doc_fretplot.pdf) also copied data from the figures on the right.
The figures have been moved to the bottom as a fix.
2. On page 12 of the documentation pdf, copying the compilation
command "lualatex --shell-escape amaj.tex" introduced an extra
character (possibly a carriage return) in between the "lualatex"
and the "--shell-escape amaj.tex". Two other instances of this
compilation command were there in the pdf, and all three were
generated using the same macro. This non-deterministic behavior
is probably due to a bug in *TeX, or in the pdf reader (or some
underlying library), or the pdf format itself.
In any case, this was fixed by replacing the spaces in the
macro with \,\,\, (3 instances of \,).
3. Overall polishing, restructuring, and improvements in the documentation.
