This should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ........................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: fntproof Version number: 1.0 Author's name: Daniel Luecking Location on CTAN: /macros/generic/fntproof/ Summary description: Non-prompting version of Knuth's testfont.tex. License type: pd Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Package fntproof implements all the font testing commands of Knuth's testfont.tex, but arranges that information necessary for each command is supplied as arguments to that command, rather than prompted for. This makes it possible to type all the tests in one command line, and easy to input fntproof in a file and use the commands there. A few additional commands supporting this last purpose are also made available. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/generic/fntproof/ .

CTAN new package: fileinfo
by CTAN Announcements 29 Nov '10

29 Nov '10

This should be at your local mirror. Thank you again, Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College Basic package information, as sent by the contributor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Location: /macros/latex/contrib/fileinfo Caption: get file infos without loading; listfiles -- mine only Description: 'readprov.sty' renders GetFileInfo from LaTeX's 'doc.sty' (without the latter being reqired), as well as new robust (expandable) variants of it, usable with files that are not really loaded (they are quit when their file info is found). So, e.g., you can describe packages that are incompatible with each other or with packages that your document uses. You even can report about various class files. Such files also enter listfiles. [related package: zwgetfdate] 'myfilist.sty' uses this so listfiles need not show files that were used, rather just files you want to know about. In a TeX script, you can choose some files and their order. Their names can be output into a plain text file with their dates, version ids, and one-line descriptions, formatted in the way listfiles does it after a LaTeX run. This way you can get an overview of, e.g., some package bundle ...

The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: chemfig Version number: 0.3 Author's name: Christian Tellechea Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/chemfig Summary description: Draw molecule with an easy syntax License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- chemfig v0.3 2010/11/21 I'm sorry but the new features are not translated into english yet. Quoi d'neuf : - Amélioration de definesubmol qui accepte les séquences de contrôle. On peut aussi choisir un alias dont la substitution est différente selon l'orientation de la liaison qui lui arrive dessus. - Le caractère | force la fin d'un atome. Si on écrit D|ef alors, chemfig verra deux atomes D et ef. - Le caractère # est reconnu lorsqu'il suit un caractère de liaison. Il doit être suivi d'un argument entre parenthèses qui contient l'offset de début et de fin qui s'appliqueront à cette liaison. - La macro chemfig admet un argument optionnel qui sera passé à l'environnement tikzpicture dans lequel elle est dessinée. - Mise en place de la représentation des mécanismes réactionnels avec la synatxe @{<nom>} devant un atome ou @{<nom>,<coeff>} au tout début de l'argument d'une liaison. Cette syntaxe permet de placer un nœud (au sens de tikz) qui deviendra l'extrémité des flèches des mécanismes. Le tracé des flèches est faite par la macro chemmove dont l'argument optionnel devient celui de l'environnement tikspicture dans lequel sont faites les flèches. - Pour le mécanisme d'alignement vertical via le vphantom, la commande chemskipalign permet d'ignorer le groupe d'atomes dans lequel elle est écrite. - La commande chemname permet d'afficher un nom sous une molécule. la commande chemnameinit initialise la plus grande profondeur rencontrée. - La commande lewis a été modifiée de telle sorte que les dessins des décorations soient proportionnels à la taille de la police. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/chemfig .

CTAN update: biblatex-dw
by CTAN Announcements 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

This should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ...................................................................................... Update summary: Version 1.3b This version of biblatex-dw was tested against biblatex 1.0, but it should also work with versions from biblatex 0.9d. The following changes were made to biblatex-dw: - BUGFIX: Using pagetotal=false and citepages=separate, the herename was printed as soon as the pagetotal field was present (although the pagetotal field itself was not printed). This is now fixed, and the citepages option pays attention to the pagetotal option. - In order to match as closely as possible to biblatex itself, the citenamepunct command was renamed to ametitledelim. For compatibility reasons with earlier versions of biblatex-dw, the citenamepunct was kept. Thus, it does not matter if you redefine ametitledelim or citenamepunct, the effect will be the same; but note that the citenamepunct may be dropped in later versions of biblatex-dw. - In full citations ametitledelim is used instead of labelnamepunct. - Improvements regarding idem functionality in combination with xref=true. - Improved the documentation. Basic package information, as sent by the contributor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Location: /macros/latex/contrib/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw Caption: Humanities styles for biblatex. Description: A small collection of styles for the biblatex package. It was designed for citations in the humanities and offers some features that are not provided by the standard biblatex styles. Biblatex-dw is dependent on biblatex (at least version 0.9d) and cannot be used without it.

CTAN update: biblatex

yesterday (19th november), philipp lehman wrote: I've uploaded biblatex.tar.gz and biblatex.tds.zip to the incoming directory of the UK node. This is an update for macros/latex/exptl/biblatex. Since this is the first officially stable release, it's time to move out of the exptl branch and I'd like to ask you to do the following: * Install the upload in macros/latex/contrib/biblatex/ * Purge macros/latex/exptl/biblatex/ and replace it with a link to the new location. * Proceed in a similar way when installing the TDS archive, i.e.: install/macros/latex/exptl/ => install/macros/latex/contrib/ RELEASE NOTES This is the long-awaited first stable release of biblatex. Please see the file RELEASE for release notes. CHANGES Please refer to the full list at the end of biblatex.pdf and to the release notes. i've installed the new version and updated the catalogue repository. the simple volume of work involved caused me to fail (in a fit of absent-mindedness) to send an announcement yesterday: my apologies for that. Users may view the package's catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/biblatex.html or browse the package's directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex/ The catalogue entry is already up to date, because of my delay in announcing.
