New on CTAN: l3build
by CTAN Announcements 16 Jun '14

16 Jun '14

The LaTeX3 Project submitted the l3build package. Version number: SVN5141 License type: lppl Summary description: A testing and building system for (La)TeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- l3build: A testing and building system for (La)TeX ================================================== The LaTeX3 Project are pleased to release to CTAN a first public version of the testing/building system used to create kernel releases of LaTeX3 code: `l3build`. This new build system has been written to support not only the work of the team itself but also to enable other (La)TeX developers to take advantage of the functionality offered. The build system is written in Lua, and is thus usable with any recent TeX system (all of which include LuaTeX and thus the `texlua` scripting executable). The code has been designed to run on both Unix systems (Linux, Mac OS X, _etc._) and on Windows, and offers the following features: - A unit testing system for (La)TeX code, essential for the work of the team but also highly-relevant to other (La)TeX developers - A system for typesetting package documentation - An automated process for creating CTAN releases (this requires a command line zip program: Windows users will need a copy of Info-ZIP, conveniently available as part of [GNU on Windows](https://github.com/bmatzelle/gow) if not installed already) A key design aim of `l3build` is that it enables testing of (La)TeX code using an automated approach. This is described in the documentation, and requires only a TeX system and one or more suitably-designed tests. The latter comprise a file containing the test code and a reference log file showing the expected outcomes: running the tests and comparing the results is handled entirely by `l3build`. The entire testing and building system can be run in an 'isolated' way such that files in the main TeX system do not influence the outcomes. The system has been designed to be flexible, with setting stored in a small Lua-based configuration file and allowing considerable control over the build process. The team have included a range of customisation options in this first release, but anticipate that over time more will be added in response to user requests. Note that `l3build` is essentially independent of other release material from the team. As such, updates to `l3build` will be made to CTAN separately from those for `l3kernel`, `l3packages` and `l3experimental`. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3build/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3build We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: l3kernel + l3packages + l3experimental
by CTAN Announcements 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

The LaTeX3 Project submitted an update to the l3kernel + l3packages + l3experimental packages. Version number: SVN 5015 License type: lppl Summary description: Higher-level LaTeX3 concepts Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Snapshot of SVN 5105 ==================== Changes in this release focus primarily on minimising dependency of expl3 on other packages and on having consistent behaviour across the supported engines (pdfTeX, XeTeX, LuaTeX). The team have developed a new build system to support this: while this does not 'show up' directly, it has resulted in a number of code improvements. The build system itself will be made generally available as a stand-alone product in the near future: full details will be given at that point. Changes: - Use expl3 native graphic drivers as standard rather than those from LaTeX2e - Move experimental l3luatex code out of l3kernel: this requires more work before inclusion in the 'stable' release bundle - Remove use of ifpdf package: with the standard settings, expl3 now requires only the LaTeX2e kernel and etex package to load - pdf_strcmp:D is now only defined if a primitive: an internal wrapper \__str_if_eq_x:nn is now used for all engines (similar to pdf@strcmp in the pdftexcmds package) - Bug fix for pdfstrcmp emulation in LuaTeX: # tokens are now handled correctly in all cases - Bug fixes for native drivers: negative scaling and descender depths are now handled correctly - Bug fix for l3keys: attempting to 'nest' choice keys (set the code for a choice to itself be a choice) raises an error - l3file now allows spaces in file names and quotes them in the web2c style: surround tokens only if the file name contains spaces - Performance enhancement for l_if_single:n(TF) - int_step_... functions now evaluate all three INT arguments at the start of the loop - dim_to_pt:n/dim_to_unit:nn are now fully expandable; the input syntax is now restricted to 'properly formed' dimensions (i.e. exactly one unit must be given) - l3fp-old, which contained some code to support the older, non-expandable FPU syntax, is removed entirely - gind.ist is used for index sorting rather than l3doc.ist - Improved error messages in l3regex ---------------------------------------------------------------------- These packages are located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3kernel/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3packages/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3experimental/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3kernel http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3packages http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3experimental We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

uk tex faq: update
by CTAN Announcements 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

i've released version 3.28 of the uk tex faq. users may view its sources, printable versions, etc., at http://mirror.ctan.org:help/uk-tex-faq -- or they may access it (sort of) ineractively via http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq i retire soon: when i do, i shall probably not have access to the server that has served this faq since 1995 (or so). so this is probably the last ever release of this faq in its present form.
