whether the numbers are written in Western numerals or kanji numerals.
Note that the package only deals with dates in the year 1873 or later,

This package introduces support for including coloremoji icons in text and math mode of a LaTeX document. Coloremoji
can be directly entered (as unicode) in the .tex document and will be replaced with color images using the Apple Color
Emoji typeface in the output .pdf document. After numerous requests to add to CTAN
(https://github.com/alecjacobson/coloremoji.sty/issues/5), I've now added it here. I expect maintenance will be minor
as new emojis can be added procedurally.

Frank Mittelbach submitted the
widows-and-orphans
package.
Version number: 1.0a
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Identify (typographic) widows and orphans
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package identifies all widows and orphans in a document to help a
user to get rid of them. The act of resolving still needs
to be done manually: By rewriting text, running some paragraph long or
short or or explicitly breaking in some strategic place.
It will also identify and warn about words broken across columns or pages
and display formulas separated from their introductory
paragraph.
The initial idea was born way back in 2012 when somebody on stackexchange
asked if it would be possible to [Find all widows and
orphans](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/45528/finding-all-widows-a….

Karl Berry submitted an update to the
tugboat
package.
Version number: 2.20 2018-09-06
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: LaTeX macros for TUGboat articles
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A small update to the LaTeX tugboat macros and documentation. The
notable change is a new BibTeX style file, tugboat.bst, now recommended
for TUGboat articles.
- It is based on abbrvurl.bst (see https://ctan.org/pkg/urlbst),
- thus supports url and doi fields, among others.
- The url field is ignored if either the doi or howpublished field
is present, since in practice I observe that people put the same
information in all those fields.
- Has even more abbreviations, including printing only two author names
(plus et al.) if there are more than four authors, thanks to Mico
Loretan.
- Defines an @online entry type as an alias for @misc.
