grayhints
package.
Version number: 2017-03-02
License type: lppl1.2
Summary description: Produce 'gray hints' to a variable text field
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package provides JavaScript code snippets to create 'gray hints'.
Gray hints, as I term them, are text that appears initially in a text
field that gives a short hint as to what the contents of the text field
should be; for example, a text field might contain the hint 'First
Name', or a date field might read 'yyyy/mm/dd'. As soon as the field
comes into focus, the hint disappears. It reappears when the field is
blurred and the user did not enter any text into the field.
Package works for dvips/Distiller, pdflatex, lualatex, and xelatex.

Student Handouts

Version: 1.0 2017-03-15
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Management and styling of student handout projects
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Student Handouts package, studenthandouts, is used to generate
a single master document that contains a set of individual student
handouts. The package has two main functions.
First, it provides a simple framework for organizing handout source
code, and supplies a set of import management tools for selectively
importing a subset of the handouts into the master document.
Selective import is convenient when compilation of all of the handouts
is unnecessary, for example when working on a new handout.
As a secondary feature, the package defines a basic visual style
for handouts. This style can be easily changed.
