New on CTAN: snotez
by CTAN Announcements 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

Clemens Niederberger submitted the snotez package. Summary description: sidenote support for LaTeX 2e License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This has just been an exercise on a lazy afternoon. Well, more or less at least. Since there already is Andy Thomas' `sidenotes' package (mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/sidenotes) there is probably no real need for `snotez'. Moreover, the tufte classes (mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tufte-latex) as well as the memoir class (mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/memoir) also provide corresponding mechansims. Besides the fun I had my motivation was also based on the fact that I didn't like some smaller things (_not_ bugs) done by the `sidenotes' package such as inserting kerns and superscripted commas for multiple marks. I prefer to let my `fnpct' package handle these things. Anyways, here it is and it seems to be working as intended so I don't see a reason why it shouldn't be available to others for use. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/snotez .

CTAN Update: splitindex
by CTAN Announcements 06 Apr '13

Markus Kohm submitted an update to the splitindex package. Summary description: Unlimited number of indexes with SplitIndex and splitidx.sty License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Since version 1.2 the binaries for several platforms are optional. The perl implementation of splitindex is still the primary one. It is recommended to use this, if perl is available. But there's a new TeXLua implementation of splitindex, splitindex.tlu and splitindex_main.tlu, that may be used, if perl is not available. Note, that splitindex.tlu is only a wrapper to splitindex_main.tlu, that makes it easier to install new version of splitindex in TEXMFLOCAL or TEXMFHOME. Michael Palmer has improved the English user manual of splitidx and splitindex. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/splitindex .

CTAN Update: dashrule
by CTAN Announcements 31 Mar '13

31 Mar '13

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the dashrule package. Summary description: Draw dashed rules License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The dashrule package makes it easy to draw a huge variety of dashed rules (i.e., lines) in LaTeX. dashrule provides a command, hdashrule, which is a cross between LaTeX's ule and PostScript's setdash command. hdashrule draws horizontally dashed rules using the same syntax as ule, but with an additional, setdash-like parameter that specifies the pattern of dash segments and the space between those segments. Because dashrule's rules are constructed internally using ule (as opposed to, e.g., PostScript specials) they are fully compatible with every LaTeX back-end processor. Version 1.3 fixes a small bug that introduced spurious spaces into the output. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/dashrule .
