bib2gls
package.
Version: 1.0 2017-09-09
License: gpl3+
Summary description: Command line application to convert .bib files to glossaries-extra.sty resource files
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A Java command line application that may be used to extract
glossary information stored in a .bib file and convert it into
glossary entry definition commands. This application should be used
with glossaries-extra.sty's 'record' package option. It performs
two functions in one:
- selects entries according to records found in the .aux file
(similar to bibtex)
- hierarchically sorts entries and collates location lists
(similar to makeindex or xindy)
The glossary entries can then be managed in a system such as
JabRef, and only the entries that are actually required will be
defined, reducing the resources required by TeX.
The supplementary application convertgls2bib can be used
to convert existing .tex files containing definitions
(
ewglossaryentry etc) to the .bib format required by bib2gls.

Summary description: Fetch the current class name
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
With standard LaTeX you are able to check for the class in use
invoking the kernel command `@ifclassloaded`.
However, doing so you can't get the explicit class name
(unless you want to loop over every possible class name
until `@ifclassloaded` returns true -- don't do that!)
With the present package you can get the name with significantly less effort.
Just load the package as usual: usepackage{fetchcls}
Then, the control sequence `classname` will hold the name of the current class.

eqparbox
package.
Version number: 4.1
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Create equal-widthed parboxes
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LaTeX users sometimes need to ensure that two or more blocks of text
occupy the same horizontal space on the page. To that end, the
eqparbox package defines eqparbox, eqmakebox, eqframebox, and
eqsavebox macros and an eqminipage environment. These work,
respectively, just like the parbox, makebox, framebox, and savebox
macros and the minipage environment, except that instead of specifying
a width, one specifies a tag. All boxes with the same tag --
regardless of where they are in the document -- will stretch to fit the
widest box that uses that tag. This simple, equal-width mechanism can
be used for a variety of alignment purposes, as is evidenced by the
examples in eqparbox's documentation.
Version 4.1 of eqparbox corrects a few minor problems with the code and
documentation.

This package can typeset Algobox programs almost exactly as displayed

It is far better than the LaTeX export of Algobox which does not look
like the editor rendition, has arbitrary and inconsistent differences
with the program text, is not very easy to customize and produces
standalone documents.

The komacv-rg bundle provides packages that aid in creating CVs based
on the komacv class and creating related documents, such as cover
letters and cover sheets for job applications. Concretely, the bundle
consists of three packages: komacv-addons, komacv-lco, and
komacv-multilang. komacv-addons is a small collection of add-ons and
fixes for the komacv class; komacv-lco enables the use of letter class
options from scrlttr2 also in komacv-based and other non-scrlttr2-based
documents; komacv-multilang enables the provisioning of CVs in multiple
languages and the selection of a language via babel or polyglossia.

Summary description: A LaTeX package for maintaining multiple translations of a document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Maintaining a LaTeX document with translations for multiple
languages can be cumbersome and error-prone. The multilang package
provides a set of macros for defining macros and environments as
wrappers around existing macros and environments.
These wrappers allow one to clearly specify multiple translations
for the arguments to the wrapped macros and environments while only
the translation of the document's language is actually shown.
Choosing a translation then is as simple as choosing the document's
language via babel or polyglossia.

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the
xint
package.
Version number: 1.2o 2017-08-29
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a clean-up release. It deprecates many macros from
xintcore.sty and xint.sty. Deprecated macros generate an
error message but then (as a rule) expand as in former releases.
The majority of these deprecated macros receive their proper
definitions from package xintfrac.sty. Loading the latter
will thus, for those macros it defines again, make invisible to
end-user this xintcore/xint macro deprecation status.
All these deprecated macros are marked for removal at next major
release.
