On Wed, 26 Oct 2011 H.-Martin Münch submitted the tablefootnote package. Summary description: Placing footnotes in tables License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Provides the command ablefootnote{...} to be used in a table environment, where footnote{...} would not work and would need to be replaced by footnotemark in the table and footnotetext{...} after the table environment ended. Additionally the counters for footnote and (when the hyperref package is used) Hfootnote would need to be adjusted manually. Just using ablefootnote{...} in the table does all this automatically. Known issues: sidewaystables (from the rotating package) do not get their footnotes at the same page. Pages with tables with footnotes, which are rotated with the (pdf)lscape-package, will break the hyperlinks to the table-footnotes on that page. When a table with (table)footnotes floates to another place, its footnotenumbers are not automatically adapted. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tablefootnote .

On Sat, 15 Oct 2011 Uwe Lück submitted an update to the morehype package. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `blogdot.sty' extends `blog.sty' in order to construct HTML slides. One slide is a 3x3 HTML table filling the computer screen, the center cell is the type area, the margin cell below it is a link to the next slide, and the lower right-hand cell is a restart link. This is a minimalistic, fast, straightforward approach to beamer presentations of simple text, avoiding TeX's typesetting. Font etc. sizes appropriate for slides are provided in `blogdot.css'. Find details in `blog.pdf'. QUALIFICATION: may be fine on your laptop, difficult online, works with Firefox, Opera, Chrome, rather not with MSIE. More changes of the `morehype' bundle: - `blog.sty' v0.61: - item, endenumerate, enditemize start with </li>, this fixed links near the end of a blogdot presentation (a quite deep .htm) with my Firefox - universal attributes completed - figurespace (Unicode), metavar (doc.sty's meta), acronym, dquo, dagger, ddagger, emptycell - modified setup of HTML environments - documentation fixes - `blog.pdf' includes documentation of `lnavicol.sty' (web pages with left-hand navigation column) - `texlinks.sty' v0.41 provides mirrorctanref, ugctanfileref, mirrorctanfileref, ltxcontrib (see texlinks.pdf pp. 8f.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/morehype .
