Ben Vitecek submitted an update to the
cooking-units
package.
Version: 1.2 2017-10-23
License: lppl
Summary description: Typeset and convert units for cookery books and recipes
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The new version 1.20 includes several important changes:
-- The package 'translator' is being replaced by 'translations'.
-- This package now supports the usage of phrases
(the replacement of certain integers by words)
(which I think are called counting measures in English,
but I am not sure and went with phrases) which can be
activated by the option use-phrases.
-- If no translation is found for cutext and Cutext they
are automatically replaced by cunum.
-- A former version of this package introduced its own label & ref
system and allowed the main commands of this package to accept
labels via arrow brackets. This wasn't the best idea as it fails
if the arrow brackets are made active (by e.g. babel and option
spanish).
This version tries to fix it and as such the token < is not
allowed to be used as a special-sign anymore.
Minor changes (new options, units, etc.) are listed in the section
Change History.
