New in this release: ** Support for Swedish thanks to Konrad Skeri Persson ** New customizable length ubricafterspace defining the space between each rubric ** Fix incompatibilities with the Multibbl package ** Honor bibliography titles (if) provided by multibib or multibbl ** New command oday ** FAQ update ** Fix implementation of skipsamekey option 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. [1] Named after Coline Cocotte Verna-Loupiac, born 2004/01/29. She's 3 years old oday :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/curve .
