The package below has been installed at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your local mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ...................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: show2e Author's name: Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/show2e Summary description: show variants for LaTeX2e License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This small package aims at making debugging (esp. in an interactive way) easier, by providing show variants suited to LaTeXe's commands (with optional arguments or robust) and environments: those variants also display the internal macros used by such commands, if any. The showcs variant helps with macros with exotic names. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/show2e .

CTAN has a new package: DeLig

The package below has been installed on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your local mirror. Thank you again, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: DeLig Author's name: Daniel Warner Location on CTAN: /support/delig Summary description: DeLig disables misplaced ligatures in LaTeX documents License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DeLig disables misplaced ligatures in LaTeX documents using a dictionary approach. In general LaTeX always uses ligatures for the letter combinations ff, fi, fl, ffi and ffl. This is not always correct in the German language, e.g. the word Auflage may not be printed with an fl-ligature, that is, the fl-ligature in Auflage must be disabled. This may be accomplished by using the babel-package and the two symbols |: Auflage. The Java program DeLig does this job automatically for you, using a ligature word list. Please note that DeLig is only as good as the ligature word list file DeLig.list it relies on. This version is intended for German language texts only. DeLig is partially based on the Perl script rmligs by Björn Jacke, in particular the wordlist data is based on his igerman98 dictionary. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/delig .

CTAN Update: pst-circ
by CTAN Announcements 28 Feb '08

28 Feb '08

Herbert Voss submitted an update to the pst-circ package to CTAN. Pst-circ is a package built using PSTricks and in particular pst-node. It can easily draw current 2-terminal devices and some 3- and 4-terminal devices used in electronic or electric theory. The package’s macros are designed with a view to ‘logical’ representation of circuits, as far as possible, so as to relieve the user of purely graphical considerations when expressing a circuit.

CTAN Update: notes2bib
by CTAN Announcements 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

On Tue, 26 Feb 2008 Joseph Wright submitted an update to the notes2bib package. The notes2bib package defines a new type of note, bibnote, which will always be added to the bibliography. The package allows footnotes and endnotes to be moved into the bibliography in the same way. The package can be used with natbib and biblatex as well as plain LaTeX citations. Both sorted and unsorted bibliography styles are supported. The package makes use of the e-TeX extensions (any post-2005 LaTeX distribution will provide these by default, but users of older systems may need to use an elatex command or equivalent). It also makes use of the xkeyval and etoolbox packages.

The package below has been installed on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ........................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: PST-Cox Author's name: Jean-Gabriel Luque Location on CTAN: /graphics/pstricks/contrib Summary description: Drawing regular complex polytopes with PSTricks License type: lgpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- We have wrote a new package for PSTricks for drawing 2 dimensional projection of complex regular polyopes (after the work of Coxeter). The package consists in a library of macro for drawing the projections. The complex polytopes appears in the study of the roots systems and play a crucial role in many domains related to mathematics and physics. These polytopes have been completely described by Coxeter in his book Regular Complex Polytopes. there exist only a finite numbers of exceptional regular complex polytopes (for example the ikosae dron) and some infinite series (for example, one can construct multi-dimensional analogous of the hypercube in any -finite- dimension). The library contains two packages. The first, pst-coxcoor, is devoted to the exceptional complex regular polytopes whose coordinates have been pre-computed. The second, pst-coxeterp, is devoted to the infinite series. One can find also other informations in the beautiful page of Jean-Michel Sarlat: http://melusine.eu.org/syracuse/pstricks/pst-cox/ To contact me, use the email given in the documentation of the package. best wishes Jean-gabriel Luque ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-cox .

CTAN package update: CurVe
by CTAN Announcements 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

The package below has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: CurVe Author's name: Didier Verna Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/curve Summary description: A curriculum vitae class for LaTeX2e License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is edition 1.15 of CurVe. What's new in this version: ** Support for itemize environments, suggested by Mirko Hessel-von Molo. ** Added some documentation about vertical spacing problems in |bbl| files, suggested by Seweryn Habdank-Wojewódzki. CurVe is a class package that hopefully will make your life easier when you want to write your CV. It provides you with a set of commands to create rubrics, entries in these rubrics etc. CurVe will then properly format your CV for you (possibly splitting it onto multiple pages, repeating the titles etc), which is usually the most painful part of CV writing. Another nice feature of CurVe is its ability to manage different CV flavors simultaneously. It is in fact often the case that you want to maintain slightly divergent versions of your CV at the same time, in order to emphasize on different aspects of your background. CurVe also comes with support for AUC-TeX. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/curve .
