by CTAN Announcements 10 Dec '07

10 Dec '07

The package below has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at a mirror near you. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ....................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: dot2tex Author's name: Kjell Magne Fauske Location on CTAN: /graphics/dot2tex/ Summary description: Convert graphs generated by Graphviz to LaTeX friendly formats License type: dfsg Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dot2tex is a tool for converting graphs rendered by Graphviz to formats that can be used with LaTeX. The purpose of dot2tex is to give graphs generated by Graphviz a more LaTeX friendly look and feel. This is accomplished by converting xdot output from Graphviz to a series of TikZ and PGF, or PSTricks commands. This approach allows: * Typesetting labels with LaTeX, allowing mathematical notation. * Using native PSTricks and PGF/TikZ commands for drawing arrows. * Using backend specific styles to customize the output New in version 2.7.0 is the --codeonly option for tighter integration with the dot2texi.sty LaTeX package ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/dot2tex/ .

CTAN package update: Eplain 3.2 release
by CTAN Announcements 28 Nov '07

28 Nov '07

Oleg Katsitadze has provided a package which has been mirrored, automatically, to CTAN. He writes: I'm happy to announce a new release of Eplain (3.2), a set of TeX macros that expands on and extends the definitions in plain TeX in a style-neutral fashion. Eplain's home page is http://tug.org/eplain Location on CTAN is /macros/eplain The manual is available on-line from Eplain's home, or as a hard-copy from http://www.lulu.com/content/113810 (Royalties are donated to the TeX Users Group.) Here's an excerpt from the NEWS file. * Fixed a bug which caused silent indexing macros to output spurious space in vertical mode. * Added a switch to disable index file input/output. * Fixed xref and bibliography label definition macros so that reading in a .aux file with a large number of label definitions does not overflow the save stack. * Fixed double-column macros -- they were occasionally losing material and producing columns too high to fit on a page. Also improved appearance of the last column, which often came out spaced out. ============== I've updated the catalogue, and the new version should be widely available by now. Users may view the catalogue entry at http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/eplain.html or browse the distribution at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/eplain/ Thanks for the continuing support of the package, Oleg.

On Fri, 23 Nov 2007, Alexander Grahn submitted an update to the animate package. The package provides an interface to create portable, JavaScript driven PDF animations from sets of graphics files or from inline graphics, such as LaTeX picture environment, PSTricks or pgf/TikZ generated pictures, or just from typeset text. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/animate License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This update comes with improved timeline capabilities: - detection of multiple inclusion of the same object into the same animation frame - grouping objects into layers for better depth level control ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/animate . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=animate (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 .
