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 .

Boris Veytsman submitted an update to the philosophersimprint package. 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 .

CTAN Update: mathastext
by CTAN Announcements 11 Jan '13

11 Jan '13

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the mathastext package. Summary description: Use the text font in math mode License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.2e [2013/01/10] This version should be the last one in the 1.2 series as it seems to correct most of the main problems which were introduced with the massive use of mathematically active characters in versions 1.2 and 1.2b. * It is indeed a thorny point when one wants to modify only in math mode how an active character acts, without breaking things. The package now does that /only/ if the activation appears to originate in the Babel system, as it is then possible to modify appropriately the Babel macros user@active<char> and ormal@char<char>. The relevant issues are discussed in section 2.10 of the user manual, in the test file testmathastextalphabets.tex, and in the source code comments to the macro mst@mathactivate. The inherent incompatibility of Babel with packages having made mathematically active the characters itself makes document active is circumvented by this interference of mathastext. A generally applicable Babel patch could be derived from the method used by mathastext. * The technique of mathematical activation is maintained only for the characters which are not catcode active (at the entrance in math mode, as mathastext does all its activation job at everymath and everydisplay). * Sadly, the feature of added italic corrections introduced in version 1.2b did not behave as described in the user manual, due to forgotten group braces. Fixed. * The command MTlowerast from the user manual of v1.2d was not the one implemented in the source code. Fixed. * The test files automatically extracted from a latex run on the dtx file have been revised and extended. * The code is better documented. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mathastext .

These macros generate the full URLs from minimal identifiers (and memorizable macro names) in the site-specific way. The documentation contains several new examples. BLOG v0.81: * egin{enumtype}{<1/a/A/i/I>} resembling the `enumerate' package becomes official. * HTML entities added: soft hyphen (-), ...caron; (v), ...lig; (AE etc.) * Documentation of `markblog' in `blog.pdf' mentions alternative implementations of simplified/non-TeX markup (especially `interpreter'). BLOGEXEC v0.21: * The {noblog} environment becomes official.
