New on CTAN: selnolig
by CTAN Announcements 28 May '13

28 May '13

Mico Loretan submitted the selnolig package. Summary description: Selective suppression of typographic ligatures for English and German texts License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The selnolig package suppresses typographic ligatures selectively, i.e., based on predefined search patterns. The search patterns focus on ligatures deemed inappropriate because they span morpheme boundaries. For example, the word opt{shelfful}, which is mentioned in the TeXbook as a word for which the ff ligature might be inappropriate, is automatically typeset as shelf/ful rather than as shel{ff}ul. For English and German language documents, the selnolig package provides extensive rules for the selective suppression of so-called common ligatures. These comprise the ff, fi, fl, ffi, and~ffl ligatures as well as the ft and~fft ligatures. Other f-ligatures, such as fb, fh, fj and fk, are suppressed globally, while making exceptions for names and words of non-English/German origin, such as Kafka and fjord. For English language documents, the package further provides ligature suppression macros for a number of so-called discretionary or rare ligatures such as ct, st, and sp. The selnolig package requires use of the LuaLaTeX format provided by a recent TeX distribution such as TeXLive2012 or 2013 and MiKTeX2.9. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/selnolig .

Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Release 1.07a (2013/05/26) brings important additions: 1. xintexpr... elax is an expandable parser of algebraic expressions involving the basic operations +,-,*,/, and ^ as infix operators, as well as ! for the factorial. It expands everything along the way and recognizes integers, decimal numbers, numbers in scientific notations, and arbitrary levels of parenthesizing. 2. xintfloatexpr... elax is the same thing, the operations being excuted with a precision D, whose default is 16 digits, and may be set arbitrarily (theoretical maximum 32768). 3. the other package macros now accept the scientific notation on input and xintFloat outputs in floating point format with a given precision D either specified as an optional argument or globally set. The bundle now comprises the core constituents xint, xintfrac, and the latest xintexpr which loads the two previous ones, and auxiliary packages xintgcd, xintseries and xintcfrac. The macros are usable with any flavor of TeX with the e-TeX extensions. Users of LaTeX will do usepackage{xintexpr}, others input xintexpr.sty ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint .

CTAN Update: spelling
by CTAN Announcements 24 May '13

24 May '13

Stephan Hennig submitted an update to the spelling package. Summary description: support for spell-checking of LuaTeX documents License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package supports spell-checking of TeX documents compiled with the LuaTeX engine. It can give visual feedback in PDF output similar to WYSIWYG word processors. The package relies on an external spell-checker application that can check a plain text file and output a list of bad spellings. The package should work with most spell-checkers, even dumb, TeX-unaware ones. v0.4 (2013-05-23) New features: - In addition to lists of bad and good spellings, words can be checked against user-defined match rules to determine highlighting status. Changes: - Removed means to configure EOL character of text output file. Standard Lua EOL character is always used, which is platform dependent. - Improved compatibility with recent LuaTeX versions (v0.74 and newer). - File <jobname>.spell.xml is loaded before file <jobname>.spell.bad (if both files exist). Fixes: - Bad words with surrounding punctuation haven't been highlighted. Determining whether a word needs to be highlighted is now done by checking against the lists of bad and good spellings words as they appear in the document with possible punctuation as well as with all surrounding punctuation stripped (GitHub issue 8). - Macro spellingoutputlinelength was broken. - Raising an error when a file cannot be opened for reading causes problems when compiling a document for the first time. Now, only a warning is written to the console and log file in that case. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/generic/spelling .
