CTAN Update: ionumbers
by CTAN Announcements 17 Apr '14

17 Apr '14

Christian Schneider submitted an update to the ionumbers package. Version number: v0.3.3 License type: gpl Summary description: Restyle numbers in maths mode Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This update fixes a problem with MnSymbol (and potentially other packages changing the font in math mode). Ionumbers assigns macro definitions to certain characters in math mode. Previously, the original mathcodes of these characters were hard-coded into ionumbers and did not match those defined by MnSymbol. For example, '-' in the input turned into '+' in the output, if used with MnSymbol. The update uses the mathcodes that the characters have at the beginning of the document instead. Thanks to Michael Sebastian Hitziger for reporting this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ionumbers/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ionumbers We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Casper Ti. Vector submitted an update to the pkuthss package. Version number: 1.5.0 License type: other-free Summary description: LaTeX template for dissertations in Peking University Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes (relative to v1.4 rc4) ------------------------------ * Changes to package code: - pkuthss.cls: do not disable `uppercase' in `nouppermark' mode. * Changes to example template: - Split from documentation. - Also offer pdf for the example template. * Changes to documentation: - Remove support for CRLF (except for Windows .bat's), as required by CTAN. - Relicense to LPPL v1.3+ (not including the example template). * Misc: - Switch to the x.y.z version scheme, thus no longer use alpha/beta/rc. - Minor fixes and improvements. Details and trivia ------------------ * The most important change is that we now offer a template that is much simpler than previous versions, because the template is now separated from the documentation. * Another significant change is that we now use the `x.y.z' version scheme rather than `1.4 alpha1' or so, because we realise that our release cycle is really non-deterministic, and the new scheme is more more flexible and suitable for us. * In fact, v1.4 is released as an intermediate version earlier today, but not uploaded because CTAN does not seem to host coexistent versions of the same package ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pkuthss/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pkuthss We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

New on CTAN: logicproof
by CTAN Announcements 22 Mar '14

22 Mar '14

Alan Davidson submitted the logicproof package. Version date: 2014/03/20 License type: lppl Summary description: Box proofs for propositional and predicate logic Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- First public release A common style of proof used in propositional and predicate logic is Fitch proofs, in which each line of the proof has a statement and a justification, and subproofs within a larger proof have boxes around them. This package provides environments for making such proofs and boxes. It creates proofs in a style similar to the one used in Logic in Computer Science by Huth and Ryan. When I took a logic class in college, the professor lamented that there wasn't a good way to make these box proofs in LaTeX, and suggested that the class write up their assignments in LaTeX without boxes, print them out, and draw the boxes in by hand before turning them in. Unsatisfied with this approach, I created some macros to draw these boxes in LaTeX itself. I shared that code with the professor, who liked it enough to share it with the rest of the class. It's been nearly a decade since then, and I have recently discovered that not only are people still using my old code, its use has spread to other colleges. I had assumed that in the intervening time, a professional logician would have made and published a better implementation, but that doesn't seem to have happened. This is an improved version of my old code, with several problems fixed and a more standardized syntax. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/logicproof/ This Catalogue entry does not yet exist, but we will hopefully not forget to create it: http://www.ctan.org/pkg/logicproof We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
