Xavier Danaux submitted an update to the moderncv package. Summary description: A modern curriculum vitae class License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.3.0 (09 Feb 2013) - added a new environment to create multiple columns: cvcolumns. Each column is then created by cvcolumn[width]{header}{content}, where the optional width is given as a fraction of the total width (between 0 and 1). The header and content are robust and can contain any paragraph command (e.g., a nest itemize environment). - added a macro (pdfpagemode) to control what is visible upon opening compiled pdfs (assuming pdf reader support), as suggested by U. Stöhr. Possible values include: UseNone (only the document), UseThumbs (show thumbnails), UseOutlines (show bookmarks) and FullScreen (open in fullscreen mode). - added a 3rd, fully optional (can be omitted or left blank) argument to address to specify a country, as requested on launchpad (launchpad bug #1063995). - compacted list environments further. - replaced the usage of the xargs package by the xparse one. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv .

CTAN Update: babel-beta
by CTAN Announcements 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

Javier Bezos submitted an update to the babel-beta package. Summary description: Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the second beta release of babel 3.9. The main aims of this version are to fix bugs (there were lots) and to add basic support for xetex and luatex. Here is a list of most of the new and extended macros: -- usershorthands* is like useshorthands but it makes sure shorthands are always activated. -- defineshorthands can be used to (re)define system and language shorthands, and a new level for language-dependent user shorthands is added, which takes precedence over normal user shorthands. -- shorthandoff* restores the original catcode or definition (useful with ~ and ^). -- AfterBabelLanguage sets code to be executed at the end of the corresponding ldf file. -- abelhyphen inserts a hyphen (soft, hard, nobreak...). -- abelhyphenation is like hyphenation but for all languages or specific ones (lccode changes are taken into account). -- AddBabelHook sets code to be executed at some events (EnableBabelHook and DisableBabelHook control them). -- StartBabelCommands, SetString, and a few more, may be used to define encoding dependent captions (eg, utf8 for xetex and luatex) New package options: -- shorthands sets which language/system shorthands are allowed. -- safe sets if bib and/or ref macros are redefined. -- config sets a different config file. -- main sets the main language. -- headfoot sets the language in heads and foots. -- noconfigs: .cfg files are not loaded. -- showlanguages prints to the log file the languages preloaded -- math sets the behaviour of shorthands in math mode in the format. I hope the final version will be available by March/April. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/exptl/babel-beta .

Adrian P. Robson submitted the makeshape package to CTAN. Summary description: A method for declaring new PGF shapes License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package simplifies writing PGF shapes. Declaring custom shapes with correct anchor borders can be difficult. Complex shapes often need complicated calculations to find the touching point of a connecting line. This package only requires that a developer write a PGF path describing the anchor border. It also provides macros that help with the management of shape parameters, and the definition of anchor points. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/makeshape .

tug.ctan.org now at utah
by CTAN Announcements 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Hello TeX folk, The host tug.ctan.org now resolves to the new official North American redistribution site at the University of Utah, thanks to long-time TeX stalwart Nelson Beebe, Pieter Bowman, and their institution's support. So, folks in North America (and maybe elsewhere) should consider tug.ctan.org when using an explicit CTAN host. By rsync: rsync://tug.ctan.org/CTAN/ rsync is by far the most efficient way to do transfers, but of course the site is also available by ftp and http: ftp://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/ http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/ The Utah site is itself updated hourly, so there is no worry about stale material. As a reminder, there is the generic redirector http://mirror.ctan.org/ which should go to an up-to-date and nearby host. We recommend using this url in articles, mailing list posts, etc., to better balance CTAN traffic. For example, http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/ Great thanks also to Jim Hefferon for years of hosting the master North American mirror of (and participating in) CTAN at St. Michael's College.

CTAN Update: exsheets
by CTAN Announcements 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Clemens Niederberger submitted an update to the exsheets package. Summary description: Yet another package for the creation of exercise sheets. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There has been a potentially breaking change: the {tasks} environment previously provided by ExSheets has been extracted into a package of its own (`tasks') now shipped with and being part of the exsheets bundle. This does not change any syntax per se. However, the options for the environment are no longer set with SetupExSheets but with settasks. Also the object that is used for the list template and its instances has been renamed from `exsheets-tasks' into `tasks'. Another breaking change while we're at it) is a syntax difference with the {tasks} environment: the optional argument for the number of columns is no longer set in braces but parentheses. This is deliberate as it reflects the optional nature of the argument better and is consistent with the syntax of NewTasks, too. Additionally the labels of the list got an additional offset of 1ex from the items which will lead to different visual output. In some cases this might actually lead to the most annoying changes. In this case say settasks{label-offset=0pt} which should cure things again. Unrelated with the above there have been improvements to the random selection of questions which seems to work properly now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/exsheets .

Summary description: Typesetting articles for the journal Philosopher's Imprint License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- As said in its mission statement at http://www.philosophersimprint.org, ``Philosophers' Imprint is a refereed series of original papers in philosophy, edited by philosophy faculty at the University of Michigan, with the advice of an international Board of Editors, and published on the World Wide Web by the University of Michigan Digital Library. The mission of the Imprint is to promote a future in which funds currently spent on journal subscriptions are redirected to the dissemination of scholarship for free, via the Internet.'' The journal used to accept manuscripts in Rich Text Format only. However, for many authors, especially from the field of logic, TeX seems to be a better choice. I was commissioned to write a LaTeX class for this journal. The aim of the class is to help authors to typeset their own articles in the ``Web-ready'' format. We do not assume the authors have any commercial fonts installed on their machines. The class uses only freely available and freely distributed fonts. Changes in version 1.3 - Added copyright licensing information Changes in version 1.2 - Added trailing slash to the title page URL Changes in version 1.1 - New formatting of journal URL - Better handling of footnotes - Use for microtype if exists ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/philosophersimprint .
