License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This bug fix release changes the internal use of csname .. endcsname to execute potential file hooks. Instead, the existence of the file hook is tested first to avoid implicit definition as elax, which might interfere with user code, i.e. start a new tabular row. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/filehook . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/filehook (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 . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
