One breaking change: mathastext does not redefine anymore i and j to let them be usable both in text and math mode. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mathastext More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/mathastext ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Added the cfg option for specifying a custom contiguration file. New commands showTranslAlways, showTranslDecld, ranslFmt, ranslTxtFmt, and cobblevrs. All documented in the manual. NOTE: The format for the CFG file has changes, you will need to update to this new syntax; refer to Section 3.8 of the manual and to fbpes.cfg for an example. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fetchbibpes More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/fetchbibpes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
