attachfile
package.
Version number: 1.8
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Attach arbitrary files to a PDF document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting with PDF 1.3 (Adobe Acrobat 4.0), PDF files can contain file
attachments -- arbitrary files that a reader can extract, just like
attachments to an e-mail message. The attachfile package brings this
functionality to pdfLaTeX and LuaLaTeX and provides some additional
features not available in Acrobat, such as the ability to use arbitrary
LaTeX code for the file icon -- including things like includegraphics,
tabular, and math. Settings can be made either globally or on a
per-attachment basis. attachfile makes it easy to attach files and
customize their appearance in the enclosing document.
Version 1.8 of attachfile strips the path name while embedding a file.
Mikkel Futtrup reports that path names tend to confuse PDF readers on
tablets and smartphones.

This release add some new features, change some behavior and fix some
bugs:
- lIf*, lFor*, lRepeat*, lCase*, lOther* which act like their
corresponding macro without star but do not end the line neither print
';': useful to enclose such a macro into another one.
- You know that you can add side comment with () after the name of the
macro: now you can add side comment at end of macro by adding () after the
closing brace: useful to add comment on the endif, endof, ... line
- SetKwSwitch defines now also an uOther command
- SetStartEndCondition{typo1}{typo2}{typo3} was fixing typo for
start-end marker of condition: typo 3 was used for end condition of case
and repeat, it is now only used for repeat, typo2 is now used for end
condition of case to be more consistent with other commands (case has a
keyword after condition where condition of repeat-until ends the
statement)
- keywords are now language dependant due to conflicts between languages
(see document for more information about this)
- new typo styles : FuncArgSty for arguments of KwFunction and KwProgSty
for name of KwProg macro
- new option hangindent to manage hanging for long statement (see
documentation)
- add group markers as block markers introduced in release 5.0 (see
documentation for more information)
- add SetCustomAlgoRuledWidth{length} which set a custom ruled width of
ruled and algoruled options
- add turkish language option
- fix a numerous of small bugs (see release note for more informations
about this)

The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List is an organized list of over 14000 symbols commonly available to LaTeX users. Some
of these symbols are guaranteed to be available in every TeX distribution. Others require font files that come with
some, but not all, TeX distributions. The rest require font files that must be downloaded explicitly from CTAN
(http://www.ctan.org/) and installed. The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List currently showcases symbols from 197 separate
typefaces.
Version 12.0 of the list substantially increases the number of symbols presented: from just under 6000 to slightly over
14000.
