Summary description: An OpenType Devanāgarī font designed for scholars
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shobhika is a free, open source, Unicode compliant, OpenType font with
support for Devanāgarī, Latin, and Cyrillic scripts. It is available in
two weights—regular and bold.
The font is designed with over 1600 Devanāgarī glyphs, including support
for over 1100 conjunct consonants, as well as vedic accents.
The Latin component of the font not only supports a wide range of characters
required for Roman transliteration of Sanskrit, but also provides a subset
of regularly used mathematical symbols for scholars working with scientific
and technical documents.
The project has been launched under the auspices of the Science and Heritage
Initiative (SandHI) at IIT Bombay, and builds upon the following two fonts
for its Devanāgarī and Latin components respectively: (i) Yashomudra by
Rājya Marāṭhī Vikās Saṃsthā, and (ii) PT Serif by ParaType.
We would like to thank both these organisations for releasing their fonts
under the SIL Open Font Licence, which has enabled us to create Shobhika.

Summary description: Emulate non-Unicode Japanese fonts using Unicode fonts
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The set of the Japanese logical fonts (JFMs) that are used as
standard fonts in pTeX and upTeX contains both Unicode JFMs and
non-Unicode JFMs. This bundle provides an alternative set of
non-Unicode JFMs that are tied to the virtual fonts (VFs) that
refer to the glyphs in the Unicode JFMs. Moreover it provides a
LaTeX package that redefines the NFSS settings of the Japanese
fonts of (u)pLaTeX so that the new set of non-Unicode JFMs will
be employed. As a whole, this bundle allows users to dispense
with the mapping setup on non-Unicode JFMs.

Summary description: Draw Nassi-Schneidermann charts
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts
Even in the age of OOP one must develop algorithms.
Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams are a well known tool to describe an
algorithm in a graphical way. This package StrukTeX presents
some macros for generating those diagrams in a LaTeX document.
The package provides the most important elements of a
Nassi-Shneiderman diagram, including processing blocks, loops,
mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. Diagrams are drawn
using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference).
The author is Jobst Hoffmann. See also pict2e.
If one is working with (X)emacs and AUCTeX the drawing process is
supported by structex.el, a style file which knows the syntax of most
of the commands from the StrukTeX package.
Version v2.2-1 adds a forallin loop and two options (debug, outer).
