Sašo Živanović submitted an update to the forest package. Version: 2.0.2 2016-03-04 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Drawing (linguistic) trees Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is primarily a bugfix release, with some minor features added, but it also contains a backwards incompatible change in the interface decribed below. Don't worry, however: the modified feature has only been introduced a month ago, in v2.0.0, so you probably haven't used it yet. The semantics of the parenthesized optional argument to `forest` environment has changed. The argument was introduced in v2.0.0: if present, it redefined `stages` style for the current environment/macro. This argument is now generalized to allow further (pre-`stages`) customization in future versions of the package. To temporarily redefine stages, write (stages={...}). Note: The user documentation is in forest-doc.pdf, not in forest.pdf, which describes the implementation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/forest The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/forest/ We are supported by the TeX users groups.

Alexander Grahn submitted the xsavebox package. Version number: 0.1 2016-02-13 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Saveboxes for repeating content without code replication, based on PDF Form XObjects Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package defines commands for saving content that can be repeatedly placed into the document without replicating DVI/PDF code in the output file, allowing for smaller file size of the final PDF and improved content caching for faster display in certain PDF viewers. The method makes use of `Form XObjects' defined in the PDF specification. The user commands are modelled after the standard LaTeX commands savebox, sbox, usebox and the `lrbox' environment. All common TeX engines and back-ends are supported: * pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX * LaTeX --> dvips --> ps2pdf/Distiller * (Xe)LaTeX --> (x)dvipdfmx The user commands are: * content saving: xsavebox{<name>}[<width>][<position>]{...} xsavebox*{<name>}[<width>][<position>]{...} xsbox{<name>}{...} egin{xlrbox}{<name>}...end{xlrbox} egin{xlrbox*}{<name>}...end{xlrbox*} <name> is an identifier (not a command!) composed of arbitrary non-active characters, including spaces and numbers. A command for declaration of <name> does not exist. Starred `*' variants allow for colour injection (pdfLaTeX/LuaLaTeX only). * content insertion (referencing): xusebox{<name>} he<name> The second, short form is useable if <name> is composed of [a-zA-Z]. The package was written in the LaTeX3 syntax. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/xsavebox More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xsavebox We are supported by the TeX user groups.
