On Tue, 5 Apr 2005 Uwe Lück submitted a new, experimental package called noreinserts Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/noreinserts/ Summary description: use holdinginserts with LaTeX floats in a simple/experimental way. License type: LaTeX Project Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LaTeX's figures, tables, and marginpar's are dangerous for footnotes (and probably enlargethispage). Here is a proposal (a patch .sty) to help using holdinginserts in a simple way. It replaces the original problem with a new one -- it is an experiment to find out whether the new problem is less bad (or it is just a contribution to the discussion, maybe just a summary of previous work).

CTAN update: preview-latex 0.9.1
by CTAN Announcements 03 Apr '05

03 Apr '05

On Sun, 3 Apr 2005, David Kastrup uploaded a new version of preview-latex to CTAN. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/preview, support/preview-latex License: gpl Here are the release notes: > Release notes for version 0.9.1 of the preview-latex package: > > preview-latex makes LaTeX a tightly integrated component of your > editing workflow by visualizing selected source chunks (such as single > formulas or graphics) directly as images in the source buffer. > You get to have your eye candy and edit it, too. > > The employed style file preview.sty is independently useful for > extraction of selected text elements as images. > > The package is released under the GNU Public License (GPL) and can be > downloaded from <URL:ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/auctex/> as a tarball > or as RPM files.

It is strongly > recommended that you remove any previous installation before > installing this version to avoid keeping conflicting or unnecessary > files. In particular version 0.9 has been known to install into > strange (but working) places at times and will likely render later > installed versions inoperative. > > The quality of multibyte and image support in the current > implementations and the responsiveness of the developers to problem > reports does not recommend the use of XEmacs at the current point of > time. > > The encoding support of preview-latex has been refined: the run buffer > will now yield readable output again in most situations where it can > be reasonably expected to do so. > > The installation no longer requires Makeinfo or Perl as long as you > don't touch source files: precompiled documentation is included in the > distribution by default and no longer available as a separate archive. > > The README file provides adequate information for firing up > preinstalled distributions, and pointers how to provide feedback.

CTAN update: xkeyval v2.4 and extract v1.7
by CTAN Announcements 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

On Thu, 31 Mar 2005, Hendri Adriaens submitted new versions of xkeyval and extract to CTAN. The xkeyval package is an extension of the keyval package and offers additional macros for setting keys and declaring and setting class or package options. The package allows the programmer to specify a prefix to the name of the macros it defines for keys, and to define families of key definitions; these all help use in documents where several packages define their own sets of keys. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/xkeyval License: LPPL ------------------------------------------------------ xkeyval v2.4 ------------------------------------------------------ 1) Added `default value' column to xkvview tables. 2) Added nesting protection for internal conditionals. 3) Changed define@boolkey to have an explicit key function. 4) Extended boolean keys. 5) Extended choice keys. 6) Inserted pst-xkey in xkeyval source. 7) Removed command keys. 8) Revised documentation and examples. 9) Simplified some code. 10) Updated xkvview. 11) Solved small bug related to XKV@rm. 12) Redid XKV@wh@list without using groups. The extract package provides the means to extract specific content from a source document and write that to a target document. One could, for instance, use this to extract all exercises from lecture notes and generate an exercises book on the fly. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/extract License: LPPL ------------------------------------------------------ extract v1.7 ------------------------------------------------------ 1) Revised documentation. 2) Solved small bug with the `no-header' option. ------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the updates.

For instance the German Normseite: 60 lines of 30 characters each. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/stdpage License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I fixed /several/ serious bugs and added a new option which creates the real-typewriter-look(tm).

30 Mar '05

A new package has appeared on tug.ctan.org and should spread to your favorite mirror within a day or two. Thanks for the contribution, Jim Hefferon ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: outlines Author's name: Charles Pecheur Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/outlines Summary description: An environment for outline-style indented lists with freely mixed levels. License type: pd Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The outlines package - - ---------------------- Charles Pecheur, March 25, 2005 The outlines package defines the outline environment, that allows outline-style indented lists with freely mixed levels up to four levels deep. It replaces the nested begin/end pairs by different item tags 1 to 4 for each nesting level. This is very convenient in cases where nested lists are used a lot, such as for to-do lists or presentation slides. This package is built on top of the standard list environments and has no specific pre-requisite. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can have a look at the package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive//macros/latex/contrib although you may get a better network connection by visiting a mirror of CTAN that is near to you; see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/README.mirrors .
