CTAN update: xpackages
by CTAN Announcements 05 Sep '09

05 Sep '09

This update should reach your local mirror within a day. Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ....................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: xpackages Version number: SVN 1509 Author's name: LaTeX3 Project Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/xpackages Summary description: High-level LaTeX3 concepts License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- The xpackages bundle: high-Level LaTeX3 concepts ---------------------------------------------------------------- The xpackages are experimental, high-level parts of LaTeX3. They are designed to provide a link between the programming system (expl3) and the user. Each xpackage is focussed in a different area, for example creating document commands (xparse), producing flexible formatting functions (template), etc. At present, the xpackages are designed to be loaded on top of LaTeX2e: usepackage{xparse} usepackage{template} In time, a LaTeX3 format will be produced based on this code. This allows the code to be used in LaTeX2e packages now while a stand-alone LaTeX3 is developed. To use the xpackages, you will need to have the expl3 package available. This provides the LaTeX3 coding environment on which the xpackages are built. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This release (SVN 1509) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Since the last CTAN snap-shot of the xpackages, a lot of work has been carried out revising the xparse package. Much of the code of xparse has been rewritten and a lot of thought has gone into the interface. The functions; - DeclareDocumentCommand - DeclareDocumentEnvironment - IfNoValue(TF) - IfBoolean(TF) are now considered stable. This means that xparse can be used to generate functions for real documents as well as for testing. Some parts of xparse may still be revised, as functions such as: - DeclareExpandableDocumentCommand - DeclareDocumentCommandInterface - DeclareDocumentCommandImplementation - IfValue(TF) are not yet regarded as stable. However, this will depend on feedback from other programmers regarding the usefulness of these facilities. The method for defining a function in xparse: { m o +m } is also now stable. Some work is still being done on the processor concept, but the team hope this will not take too long and so should not cause problems for package authors. The second notable change in this release is the addition of the l3keys2e package in the xtras bundle. The xtras bundle is intended to hold xpackages which are tided closely to LaTeX2e, and so provide functionality which will be implemented differently in a LaTeX3 format. l3keys2e allows keyval input defined using l3keys to be used as LaTeX2e package or class options. This is done in a similar manner to that used by the kvoptions package. Finally, the addition of the xtras bundle means that the TDS organisation of the xpackages has slightly altered. It now reflects the SVN structure: xpackages/xbase/xparse.sty xpackages/xbase/template.sty xpackages/xtras/l3keys2e.sty ---------------------------------------------------------------- Looking forward ---------------------------------------------------------------- The ideas in the template package are currently being examined, and the team expect to update template in the coming weeks. There is likely to be an update to CTAN once this process is complete so that template can move to stable status. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The LaTeX3 Project ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/xpackages .

CTAN update: expl3
by CTAN Announcements 05 Sep '09

This update should within a day reach your local mirror. Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: expl3 Version number: SVN 1509 Author's name: LaTeX3 Project Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/expl3 Summary description: An Experimental LaTeX3 Programming Convention License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- The expl3 bundle: low-level LaTeX3 coding ---------------------------------------------------------------- The files of the expl3 bundle provide a low-level API for TeX programmers with special syntax conventions, completely separating it from document level syntax. Hence, the commands provided are not intended for use at the document level nor for use in describing design layouts in document class files. This API provides the foundation on which the LaTeX3 kernel and other advanced extensions are built. Special care has been taken so that they can be used within a LaTeX2e context as regular packages. The TeX and eTeX primitives are all given a new name according to these conventions. However, in the main direct use of the primitives is not required or encouraged: the expl3 modules define an independent low-level LaTeX3 programming language. At present, the expl3 modules are designed to be loaded on top of LaTeX2e: usepackage{expl3} In time, a LaTeX3 format will be produced based on this code. This allows the code to be used in LaTeX2e packages now while a stand-alone LaTeX3 is developed. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This release (SVN 1509) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Most of the changes to expl3 since the last snapshot (SVN 1441) are additions or documentation improvements. The documentation provided in expl3.pdf has been heavily revised to make it clearer which parts of the bundle are stable. The terminology used has also been tightened up. Some of the module documentation has had minor improvements to try to ensure that all functions are documented. The new functions added are: - exp_args:NnV - keys_if_exist:nn(TF) - prop_put:NVn - prop_put:NVV - l_head:V - l_tail:V as these have proved useful to the team. These updated functions are needed by the SVN version of the xpackages. There has also been some One undocumented function has been removed: - file_not_found:nTF as this can now be handled using the l3file module. Some minor internal logic changes have been made to a small number of functions. This should not affect the functions in use. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The LaTeX3 Project ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/expl3 .
