CTAN update: expltools

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the expltools package. Version: 2025-11-24 License: lppl1.3c gpl2+ Summary description: Development tools for expl3 programmers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## expltools 2025-11-24 ### explcheck v0.16.0 #### Development This version of explcheck has implemented the following new features: - Support specifying cut-off dates for deprecations from the file `l3obsolete.txt` and prefixes from the file `l3prefixes.csv`. (suggested by @YDX-2147483647 in #147 and #149, added in #150) For example, here is how your config file `.explcheckrc` might look if you would like to only take into account the deprecations and prefixes from TeX Live 2024 and earlier: ``` toml [defaults] l3obsolete_max_deprecated_date = "2024-03-30" l3prefixes_max_first_registered_date = "2024-11-18" ``` You may get these dates by running the script `generate-explcheck-latex3.lua` with files `l3obsolete.txt` and `l3prefixes.csv` from TeX Live 2024 placed in the current working directory or other locations indexed by the KPathSea library. Here is the output of the script: ``` LPEG parsers and other information extracted from LaTeX3 data files. Generated on 2025-11-06 from the following files: - "l3obsolete.txt" with the latest obsolete entry from 2024-03-30 - "l3prefixes.csv" with the latest registered prefix from 2024-11-18 ``` You may also just use the dates of the last update to TeX Live 2024 (2025-03-09) for both options, see https://tug.org/historic, directory `systems/texlive/2024/tlnet-final`. #### Fixes This version of explcheck has fixed the following bugs: - Fix an attempt to index a nil value in function `count_segments()` from the file `explcheck-evaluation.lua`. (#150) This bug would surface when printing results for files whose processing stopped before the syntactic analysis step. #### Continuous integration This version of explcheck has made the following changes to our continuous integration: - Use historic files "l3obsolete.txt" and "l3prefixes.csv" in CI. (#150) - Include example files from the `doc` subtree in regression tests. (#150) This has reduced code coverage from ca 24% to 21% of all expl3 tokens on TeX Live 2024 and from ca 22% to 20% on current TeX Live 2025 (2025-11-06). - Check if the configuration is minimal even for expl3 files without any issues. (#150) This is necessary to prevent incorrect recommendations to remove unnecessary default settings from the file `.explcheckrc` in the script `prune-explcheck-config.lua`. - Bump actions/checkout from 5 to 6.
