Uwe Lück submitted the commado package to CTAN. Summary description: Expandable iteration on comma-separated and filename lists License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `commado.sty' provides DoWithCSL{<cmd>}{<list>} to apply an existing one-parameter macro <cmd> to each item in a list <list> in which items are separated by commas. `filesdo.sty' provides DoWithBasesExts{<cmd>}{<bases>}{<exts>} to run <cmd>{<base>.<ext>} for some (at most) one-parameter macro <cmd>, each base filename <base> in the comma-separated list <bases> and each extension in the comma-separated list <exts>. As opposed to LaTeX’s internal @for, no assignments are involved (unless <cmd> uses assignments, expandability in TeX’s gullet). Both packages are generic, i.e., should work with Plain TeX, LaTeX or even other formats, relying on the `plainpkg' package for some minimal LaTeX-like behaviour.

25 Nov '12

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the etoc package. Summary description: easily customizable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.04 The main new feature is support for label and ef: I. ableofcontents label{toc:A} or ableofcontents* label{toc:A} creates a label toc:A as usual (the starred form gives a `local' table of contents). II. Elsewhere in the document, ableofcontents ef{toc:A} will re-display the contents of the TOC with label toc:A (the ef is detected and swallowed by ableofcontents). III. One can also do ableofcontents label{toc:B} ef{toc:A} Then ef{toc:B} may be used elsewhere in the document to refer to this toc:B location (it just prints the number of the concerned TOC, but is of course an hyperlink if package hyperref has been loaded). The two TOCs with labels toc:A and toc:B will have the same contents but their layouts and titles are decided locally and may differ completely from one another. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc .

This is exemplified in a parallel upload of the shell script package `adhocfilelist'. * The documentation inside both `.sty' files as well as some settings in the documentation generators `myfilist.tex' and `readprov.tex' have some adjustments/ corrections. * While `myfilist' originally was made for use /without/ typesetting (with TeX scripts), the documentation now notes that `ListFileInfos[<txt-file>]' can also be used /with/ typesetting in order to get listfiles output in a separate plain text file `<txt-file>' (/without/ remaining `.log' content). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fileinfo .

New on CTAN: etoc
by CTAN Announcements 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

Jean-François Burnol submitted the etoc package to CTAN. Summary description: easily customizable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The etoc package gives the user complete control on how the entries of the table of contents should be constituted from the name, number, and page number of each sectioning unit. This goes via the definition of line styles for each sectioning level used in the document. The package provides its own custom line styles as an example, next to the standard formatting inherited from the LaTeX document classes. But the idea is to give the means to the user to delegate the details to packages dealing with list making environments (such as enumitem). Regarding the global style, etoc typesets by default tables of contents in a multi-column format, with either a standard heading, or a ruled title, optionally with a frame around the table of contents. The ableofcontents command can be used arbitrarily many times in the same document, and comes with a starred variant which gives local table of contents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/etoc (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
