With two central members of the CTAN team absent and the third extremely busy, response to requests in the period from 1 to 5 May (in particular) is likely to be even more than usually sluggish. The Cambridge server will shut down its upload mechanisms, but will continue to serve files by ftp or http. We apologise in advance for any difficulties users may experience: we will restore service as quickly as possible. Robin Fairbairns For the CTAN team

CTAN has a new package: boxhandler
by CTAN Announcements 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

On Mon, 24 Apr 2006 Steven B. Segletes submitted the new package boxhandler to CTAN. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/boxhandler Summary description: Flexible Captioning and Deferred Box/List Printing License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides a powerful, yet simple, interface for managing and manipulating the captions of boxed objects (e.g., tables and figures). In addition to providing wide flexibility in the presentation style of the captions, this package, when used in combination with conditionally compiled LaTeX source codes, provides the ability to defer or preempt the presentation of figures, tables, and their associated lists. In this way, one can, for example, by changing a single line of source code in the .tex file, change the output of LaTeX from a technical report with tables and figures interspersed in the text, to a journal-manuscript submission, with figures collected at the end of document, as well as lof and lot deferred or preempted. Run `boxhandler.ins' through LaTeX to produce boxhandler.sty from boxhandler.dtx. Run `boxhandler.dtx' through LaTeX to produce the documentation. This program can be redistributed and/or modified, with attribution. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Sch�pf

CTAN update: polynom v0.17
by CTAN Announcements 21 Apr '06

21 Apr '06

On Thu, 20 Apr 2006, Hendri Adriaens submitted an update to the polynom package by Carsten Heinz. Because Carsten Heinz could not be reached anymore for a long time, this package has been taken over according to the LPPL for maintenance by Hendri Adriaens on 2006/04/20. This package was using and redefining internals of the keyval package and hence it was incompatible with xkeyval. This problem has been solved and the processing of the vars key has been simplified. All other things are left as the original by Carsten Heinz. Thanks for the update. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

Re: tug.ctan.org site will not be working for a while
by CTAN Announcements 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

I believe that http://tug.ctan.org is back. I would appreciate an email if someone notices a remaining problem. I will leave a small notice up on the home page for a day or two. The major reason for the outage was a software upgrade that should improve our ability to gather and maintain metadata. In particular, there is an improved upload facility that will allow contributers to directly edit package descriptions, etc. These scripts should emerge from testing in the coming weeks. Allow me, please, a thanks. Part of the upgrade -- the part I was scratching my head about -- involved putting a version 8 of the database PostgreSQL onto my Debian system (Sarge stable now has a version 7). While I was aware that magical things can be done with apt-get, dpkg, etc., I didn't personally know how to do them. Then I found Vadim Kutchin's article http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/373 and it was perfect. Of course, CTAN is built on the contibutions of many people so in some ways I am not surprised at his generosity in publishing the steps, but wow was I glad when that article title showed in Google!

CTAN package upgrade: dvipng
by CTAN Announcements 03 Apr '06

03 Apr '06

A package has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should soon make its way to your favorite mirror. Thanks Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: dvipng Author's name: Jan-Åke Larsson Location on CTAN: /dviware/dvipng Summary description: A fast DVI to PNG/GIF converter. License type: gpl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This program makes PNG graphics from DVI files as obtained from TeX and its relatives. The 1.8 release adds the possibility to include bitmapped images (PNG, JPEG, and GIF), and changes PostScript inclusion so that the image is not cropped to the boundingbox (unless requested) and has a transparent background. From now on, for performance reasons, the output image will be truecolor if an image is included. The output quality is substantially improved when using the Freetype font library. Freetype hinting has previously been disabled in dvipng (because of substandard output from the Computer Modern font), but from the 1.8 release onwards, hinting will be enabled in a mode that prefers shape over contrast (which works well with the Computer Modern font). In short, the output quality is visibly better when Freetype is available than when it isn't. The release also fixes a few bugs and enhances the internal color cache for better performance. Report any bugs you find, see README for instructions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- See this package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/dviware/dvipng .

by CTAN Announcements 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

On Wed, 29 Mar 2006, Juergen Fenn submitted an update to the wordlike package. The package simulates typical word processor layout: narrow page margins, Times/ Helvetica/ Courier fonts, ormalsize and small headings, and sloppy typesetting. It aims at making life easier for those users who are discontent with LaTeX's standard layout settings because they need a layout that resembles the usual wordlike output. The package draws on several discussions in the de.comp.text.tex and comp.text.tex newsgroups that are referred to in the manual. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/wordlike License: LPPL Changes as compared to v1.1: * Broken v1.1 on CTAN replaced by fixed local v1.2a (thanks to Martin Wilhelm Leidig for point out this problem which is my fault, sorry about that...). * Hint to the arial package added. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the update.
