Uwe Lück submitted an update to the fileinfo package. Summary description: enhanced display of LaTeX File Information License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * `myfilist.sty' v0.71 has a reimplementation of FileListRemark that works with `filedate.sty''s FileDateAutoChecks. * This is exemplified in `gather.tex' that generates the list of LaTeX source files in the `fileinfo' bundle. * `readprov.sty' v0.5 provides ReadShInfos to process # ProvidesFile{<file>}[<info>] in shell script files <file>. This is exemplified in a parallel upload of the shell script package `adhocfilelist'. * The documentation inside both `.sty' files as well as some settings in the documentation generators `myfilist.tex' and `readprov.tex' have some adjustments/ corrections. * While `myfilist' originally was made for use /without/ typesetting (with TeX scripts), the documentation now notes that `ListFileInfos[<txt-file>]' can also be used /with/ typesetting in order to get listfiles output in a separate plain text file `<txt-file>' (/without/ remaining `.log' content). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fileinfo .

New on CTAN: etoc
by CTAN Announcements 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

Jean-François Burnol submitted the etoc package to CTAN. Summary description: easily customizable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The etoc package gives the user complete control on how the entries of the table of contents should be constituted from the name, number, and page number of each sectioning unit. This goes via the definition of line styles for each sectioning level used in the document. The package provides its own custom line styles as an example, next to the standard formatting inherited from the LaTeX document classes. But the idea is to give the means to the user to delegate the details to packages dealing with list making environments (such as enumitem). Regarding the global style, etoc typesets by default tables of contents in a multi-column format, with either a standard heading, or a ruled title, optionally with a frame around the table of contents. The ableofcontents command can be used arbitrarily many times in the same document, and comes with a starred variant which gives local table of contents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/etoc (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

New on CTAN: pdftricks2
by CTAN Announcements 17 Nov '12

17 Nov '12

Christian Reibiger submitted the pdftricks package Summary description: A LaTeX package to use PSTricks code with PDF output. License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides automatization facilities to use the pstricks package with pdflatex. It is intended to be of easy use and interoperability with latex and pdflatex, namely both show the same result. The pdftricks2 package circumvents the problem that pdflatex can not handle ps-code by writing an extra latex file that contains only the figure. This files are converted to dvi to ps and then to pdf. Finally the resulting pdf-pictures are included in the text as a graphic. This process can be handled automatically by the package but it needs to have the possibility to execute system commands (start pdflatex with option--enable-write18 or -shell-escape). If you do not want to grant this rights you still can use the package but you have to execute a shell script the package writes yourself to produce the pdf-pictures. In this case you have to run pdftex again to include the pictures in your document. The package tries to show the same results when used with latex as for pdflatex. However there are some side effects of using this package as described in the documentation. Although this package is inspired by the pdftricks package, it is coded from scratch. The pdftricks package has some flaws that are circumvented by pdftricks2. For example you have to gather all configurations you need for your pictures in one place. Furthermore it is not possible to share configuration code between your figures and the main text. Also the pdftricks package does not use the provided limits of the figure you produce but rather assumes it fits on a standard page and cuts everything away that does not look like being important. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pdftricks2 . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pdftricks2 (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
