CTAN upload: plotting data in matlab style,with metapost
by CTAN Announcements 09 Mar '05

09 Mar '05

On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 Yang Yang submitted metapost macros to plot data in matlab style. Location on CTAN: /graphics/metapost/contrib/macros/matlab Summary description: MetaPost data plotting License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- matlab.mp ------- Metapost data plotting in matlab style Matlab has powerful data plotting ability, but one annoying problem prevents it from being perfect: when you increase the linewidth, the dotted line size stays the same, so the plotted line no longer looks like a dotted line. another problem is matlab bug: it oftern cuts away some curves and captions. plus, matlab is expensive. on the other hand, the free gnuplot also doesn't produce very satisfactory visual effects. I got accustomed to matlab's easy interface. so I want to integerate the powerful graphic function of Metapost and the easy interface of Matlab. so I wrote this script matlab.mp. this is based on graph.mp, I just collected the data into 2-D arrays, and remembered the line styles, so it's easy to plot out legends. FEATURES: all kinds of line color, width, style (dotted/dashed, etc), and markers. you can easily expand this by modifying the code. easy interface. very similar to matlab full power of latex in caption/legends, by using the latexmp package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

CTAN update: floatrow v0.1d
by CTAN Announcements 07 Mar '05

07 Mar '05

On Mon, 7 Mar 2005, Olga Lapko submitted version 0.1d of the package floatrow Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/floatrow License type: lppl Abstract: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The floatrow package provides many ways to customise layouts of floating environments; it offers possibilities to put floats side by side, to put a caption beside a float. All floats of one type appear in one layout. Some floatrow settings could be expanded to rows of subfloats (subfig package). Package gets the best with co-operation with caption 3.x package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes: - Bug fixing in counting of widths in float row and float box building. - Bug fixing: the color frames with color package get correct colours. - Restoring separate usage of floatbox command (outside of float environment) - Adjusting of floatsetup keys and options (naming and declaring). - Created new command DeclareFloatStyle command (instead of definefloatstyle), which uses floatsetup mechanism for float style building. - The lengths captionskip and floatfootskip became commands. - The floats with beside captions can be placed in floatrow environment. - The layout for floats with besdie captions advanced (added new possibilities of width setting). - The new sub-package fr-subfig (beta) with subfloatrow environment created: for usage with subfig package, this environment try to expand float style settings to subfloats.

On Sat, 5 Mar 2005, Staszek Wawrykiewicz uploaded version 0.98 of the Latin Modern font family to CTAN. Authors: JNSteam License: GPL Location on CTAN: fonts/lm The Latin Modern family of fonts are based on the Computer Modern fonts in the PostScript Type 1 format, released into public domain by the American Mathematical Society. The fonts, as compared to the CM family, contain a lot of additional characters, mainly accented ones, but not only. The current package for TeX users contains: Latin Modern fonts in the PostScript Type 1 format plus all requisites for using the fonts with TeX/pdfTeX; there is one set of PostScript fonts and five sets of TeX Font Metric files, corresponding to: -- EC (Cork) encoding (ec-*.tfm), -- QX encoding (qx-*.tfm), -- TeX'n'ANSI aka LY1 encoding (texnansi-*.tfm), -- T5 (Vietnamese) encoding (t5-*.tfm), -- Text Companion for EC fonts aka TS1 (ts1-*.tfm). LaTeX *.sty and *.fd files were also added plus a few test files. Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

CTAN Update: preview-latex 0.9
by CTAN Announcements 04 Mar '05

04 Mar '05

On Thu, 3 Mar 2005, David Kastrup submitted version 0.9 of his package preview-latex and a separate package called preview Locations on CTAN: support/preview-latex and macros/latex/contrib/preview License: GPL Release notes for version 0.9 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. EPS Graphics that were created using dvips can now be used with the tightpage option, and some new commands and options are available for selecting previews. The package is released under the GNU Public License (GPL). At the current point of time, at least GNU Emacs-21.3 under the X window system or XEmacs-21 in version 21.4.10 or later, AUCTeX (11.51 or later required for PDF support), a working LaTeX installation and GhostScript are required. dvipng (version 1.4 or later: teTeX-3.0 works, TeXlive2004 not), a very fast dvi converter, can be used to speed up the conversion. For Windows, MacOS Carbon or native GTK+ toolkit support, a developer version of GNU Emacs (to be released as 22.1) is definitely required; for other platforms, use of it is advantageous. This version finally gets rid of all 8bit issues that plagued cooperation with several TeX distributions, and supports utf-8 and other multibyte input. X-Symbol (as of 4.5.1-beta) will still require an 8bit-transparent TeX executable. As a result of a drastic overhaul in image file allocation, all known GhostScript versions should now work for PostScript and PDF in SAFER mode. Icons now come in several sizes, blending better with the text display, and have been redesigned. The installation procedure has been made more flexible and robust, more conservative in the installation choices, and the Lisp startup file will now be installed automatically. It is strongly recommended that you remove a previous installation before installing this version to avoid keeping conflicting or unnecessary files. The README file provides adequate information for firing up preinstalled distributions, and pointers how to provide feedback. The INSTALL file contains a special section with advice for package providers. There is also a file INSTALL.windows detailing instructions for users of that operating system. The home page is <URL:http://preview-latex.sourceforge.net>, the SourceForge project page that among others offers anonymous CVS access is located at <URL:http://sourceforge.net/projects/preview-latex>. However, development and CVS access are scheduled to be folded into the AUCTeX project (located at Savannah) shortly after this release. If you can spare the time, you can also comment on or rate this project at <URL:http://freshmeat.net/projects/preview-latex>. Paypal donations to the maintainer are possible directly or via SourceForge. Additional files can be found at <URL:http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/preview-latex>: * If you don't have texinfo 4.0 or later installed, prebuilt documentation files can be found there. * Tarballs of preview-latex for all users, alternatively RPMs for RedHat Linux. For the binary RPMs, you will need the preview-latex-common RPM as well as the Emacs-flavor specific RPM. * AUCTeX is now located at <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex>. The download area should also provide you with RPM files. * dvipng is currently available via its current project page <URL:http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvipng> and from CTAN.

CTAN package update: mf2pt1
by Jim Hefferon 01 Mar '05

01 Mar '05

A package has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you for the upload, Jim Hefferon ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: mf2pt1 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /support/mf2pt1/ Summary description: Produce PostScript Type 1 fonts directly from Metafont source License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts directly from a Metafont source file without losing quality to autotracers. mf2pt1 is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. The program imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input. If these restrictions are met, mf2pt1 will produce valid Type 1 output with more accurate control points than can be reverse-engineered by TeXtrace, mftrace, and other programs which convert bitmaps to outline fonts. Version 2.0 sports the following improvements over the previous version: * A new --rounding option enables control points to be placed with higher precision. * Fonts are automatically run through t1asm to convert them from disassembled format to true .pfb font files. * Fonts are automatically run through FontForge, if available, to clean up curves and automatically add font-hinting information. A new --ffscript option lets the user override the default FontForge script. * mf2pt1 includes a workaround for a MetaPost turningnumber bug. * A new glyph_name command and asis encoding vector enable font programs to specify their own encodings -- useful for creating a large font out of multiple 256-character fonts. * mf2pt1 now supports an encoding vector for TeX T1 (i.e., 8-bit) encoding. * There are various bug fixes, code cleanups, and documentation improvements. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can have a look at the package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/mf2pt1/ 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 .

Name of contribution: xmpincl Author's name: Maarten Sneep Location on CTAN: /tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/xmpincl Summary description: Include eXtensible Metadata Platform data in pdflatex License type: gpl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The XMP (eXtensible Metadata platform) is a framework to add metadata to digital material to enhance the workflow in publication. References are given below, but the essenence is that the metadata is stored in an XML file, and this XML stream is then embedded in the file to which it applies. New in this version is that the <?xpacket ?> tags are automatically added, which makes the whole package much more standards compliant.

CTAN auto-archiving: the future
by Robin Fairbairns 26 Feb '05

26 Feb '05

Auto-archiving is the mechanism that allows you to get all of a directory's contents at once, by asking your ftp client for a download of <directory name>.zip or <directory name>.tar.gz . The ftp daemon creates these bundles on the fly. Auto-archiving is available at some CTAN sites and mirrors as a convience for users. The great advantage of auto-archiving is that it provides short-cuts for the ordinary user, who doesn't want to perform a retrieval operation for every file in a directory, or is concerned about how many files to download. An additional advantage is the simple fact of compression: there are savings in network bandwidth, and hence download time, to be had. The management of CTAN has been concerned, for some time, about auto-archive offered by the central CTAN nodes, for two reasons: a. Auto-archiving is offered by a small minority of mirror sites. While we have a script that checks, once a week, whether a site offers the service, the situation continues to provoke surprise. b. Auto-archiving is not possible using the newer generation of ftp daemon software. There are compelling reasons for us to try that software, but we can't do so while we claim to offer an auto-archive service. For these reasons, the CTAN team is considering withdrawing the auto-archive facility. However, we want to retain as many of the advantages of its availability as is possible. We are therefore populating CTAN with .zip archives of directories; so, for example, you will find 2005/02/17 | 8129 | macros/latex/contrib/alnumsec.zip 2005/02/16 | 862 | macros/latex/contrib/alnumsec/README 2005/02/16 | 20567 | macros/latex/contrib/alnumsec/alnumsec.dtx in FILES.byname; alnumsec.zip is a copy of the directory containing the other two files. We chose .zip as an archiving format since it's the nearest approach to a compression format that's (relatively) readily available on all common platforms. (Among other things, the free unzip application (from the info-zip project) has nice properties in dealing with different operating systems' text file formats.) Better compression performance is available with other formats, but we believe a conservative approach will serve the community better. Anyone with concerns about this move may either discuss the matter on the texhax mailing list or the comp.text.tex newsgroup, or they may mail their concerns to the CTAN team at the usual address: <ctan at dante dot de> Robin Fairbairns For the CTAN team
