The internal representation of accents did change (two instead of one ASCII 1 to 31). For numerous smaller changes see /* 2.3 comments */ in bibsort.c. Like in earlier versions, you can introduce e.g. a book in your text xvli{John}{Smith} *{vauthor{Peter}{Young}} {... [Title] ...} with Peter Young as co-author. (For further co-authors, use midvauthor{FirstName}{LastName} in front of vauthor.) Please always TYPE the FirstName first. If you start bibsort without -e, printvli will still print lists as: Smith, John / Peter Young: ... [Title] ... -e exchanges the PRINT ORDER of the args of vauthor (and midvauthor). In your text, printvli then will PRINT the List of Literature as: Smith, John / Young, Peter: ... [Title] ... The SORT ORDER in *both* cases is (that did/does *not* change): Smith John Young Peter ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/bibarts More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/BibArts CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: mf2pt1
by CTAN Announcements 05 Dec '21

05 Dec '21

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the mf2pt1 package. Version number: 2.7 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Convert stylized Metafont to PostScript Type 1 Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. mf2pt1's advantage over tools such as TeXtrace and mftrace is that it does not rely on bitmap tracing and therefore can produce higher-quality Type 1 fonts than trace-based tools. The catch is that mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input so it is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. Version 2.7 of mf2pt1 supports new --output-dir and --save-temps options for controlling where intermediate and output files are written and if intermediate files should be retained after execution completes. It also allows helper programs (mpost, t1asm, and fontforge) to be overridden, including with arguments, via environment variables. Thanks to Werner Lemberg for his suggestions for and contributions to this new release. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/mf2pt1 More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/mf2pt1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
