Karl Berry submitted an update to the
impatient
package.
Version number: 2020-01-03
License type: fdl
Summary description: Free edition of the book TeX for the Impatient
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
TeX for the Impatient is a book on plain TeX, originally published by
Addison-Wesley, written by Paul Abrahams, with Kathryn Hargreaves and
me. It has been freely available under the GFDL since 2003.
This release in 2020 fixes just a few minor, but aggravating, bugs, such
as the wrong dingbat marker on control sequences (thans to William Adams
for this, and more). Also, triple stretchability was in effect for most
of the book due to an unrestored fontdimen (grouping doesn't count!)
which has been present in all editions to date (thanks to David Fuchs,
for this and more). I also took the opportunity to fix a few other
longstanding errors in the transition to the free edition, and
suboptimal wording in the original in a few places.
Plenty of opportunity for improvement remains. The book is looking for a
maintainer; see README and errata.future for ideas. I (Karl) don't plan
to make any more releases, unless significant bugs are found. But you
can email me at karl(a)freefriends.org if need be.
The book also exists as a GNU package, home page
https://gnu.org/software/teximpatient/, but that is now maintained by
someone else, so I have uploaded this new version only to CTAN:
https://ctan.org/pkg/impatient.
There are no off-CTAN public resources for this release.
Happy (e)plain TeXing,
Karl

Summary description: Create a DB (PDF) document for selecting content for inclusion in another documents
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This poor man's database (pmdb) package promotes a workflow for
building exams, homework, and other content. The package supports the
creation of a PDF document, which is a database of problems (or
content) to be included in a target document. The package inserts
checkboxes into the margins of the DB document; the instructor can
select which which of the problems are to be included in the target
document by checking one ore more of the checkboxes. By clicking the
special displayChoices control, the selected content is copied into
the AR/AA console window in the form of input statements
(input{prob1.tex}, eg), which is then be copied and pasted into the
target document. By pressing Ctrl+Click while hovering over a checkbox,
the associated content is loaded into the default application, possibly
a LaTeX editor. For the Ctrl+Click feature to work, the file
aeb-reader.js needs to be installed. As the filename suggests, this
file will work for Adobe Acrobat Reader (DC), as well as for the
magnificent Adobe Acrobat itself.

# BREAKING CHANGES
- The computation of path times in the `intersection` library was wrong
when sorting intersections and did therefore not work correctly (#480).
This is fixed now, but that also means that the order of intersections
might change if you were using sorting before. You can easily check this
by looking for `pgfintersectionsortbyfirstpath` and
`pgfintersectionsortbyfirstpath` or the `sort by` key if you are using
intersections in Ti*k*Z.
- It turned out that in `pgf@protocolsizes` the `pgf@path@size@hook` was
executed only if the picture was actually to be placed. This led to the
problem that the `local bounding box` was not updated correctly (#795).
To correct this, the hook is now executed unconditionally.
- To get name prefixes for `pic` working (#311) the resolution of node
names in ` ikz@calc@anchor` now has two stages. First it tries to look
up the prefixed name and uses it if it exists. If there is no prefixed
name, the global name without prefix will be looked up and used (fixes
#717). Previously, if the prefixed name did not exist and error was
issued immediately without attempting to look up the global name.
- There was a bug in old PGF versions that the body of `pgfkeysedef` was
not fully expanded #305. This was fixed in PGF 3.1 (ac33f7e5) by the use
of `scantokens`. Unfortunately when expanding the body the catcodes at
the point of use are taken instead of the catcodes at the point of
definition. This led to new bugs like #669. With the new version we are
taking a middle ground. We support macro definitions within edef bodies by
doubling all the hashes followed by numbers. All other hashes have to be
escaped manually. We assume that this is not a common use case.
# New features
You can read about these new features in the manual:
- The `patterns.meta` library now provides a couple of predefined patterns
which can be used as replacements for the ones provided by the `patterns`
library.
- Tight bounding boxes for Bezier curves using the `bbox` library. This
feature was contributed by @tallmarmot. Thanks!
- New pgfkeys handler `.evaluated`
- The RGB color model is now supported in Plain TeX, i.e. values can be
integers 0-255 instead of floats 0-1 for rgb.
- Annotations for code examples in the manual as to which libraries are
required. These were contributed by Stefan Pinnow (@Mo-Gul). Thanks!
- GitHub issue templates for more streamlined bug reporting.
- New build system based on Lua. We'd like to have a more cross-platform
build system. The old system was based on Makefiles, which will be
retained for a while but gradually phased out. In the future we hope to
be able to implement a regression test suite.
# Removed features
- In the last release the undocumented commands `
awx`, `
awy`, `
awz`,
and `coord` were added to the `path let` operation. These proved to be
not as useful as anticipated (#731) and were therefore removed again.
# Bug fixes
Lots of bug fixes. On GitHub you can click the commit hashes and the
issue numbers to get to the fix and the ticket, respectively.
