Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the etoc package. Summary description: easily customizable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.05 This is reasonably mature version. It adds: * compatibility with the KOMA-script classes * compatibility with the memoir class * many changes in command names (in particular localtableofcontents replaces ableofcontents*): legacy documents from a decade ago (in days... ;-) ) will not compile anymore. Also, some bugs were fixed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc/ . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/etoc (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

New on CTAN: commado
by CTAN Announcements 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Uwe Lück submitted the commado package to CTAN. Summary description: Expandable iteration on comma-separated and filename lists License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `commado.sty' provides DoWithCSL{<cmd>}{<list>} to apply an existing one-parameter macro <cmd> to each item in a list <list> in which items are separated by commas. `filesdo.sty' provides DoWithBasesExts{<cmd>}{<bases>}{<exts>} to run <cmd>{<base>.<ext>} for some (at most) one-parameter macro <cmd>, each base filename <base> in the comma-separated list <bases> and each extension in the comma-separated list <exts>. As opposed to LaTeX’s internal @for, no assignments are involved (unless <cmd> uses assignments, expandability in TeX’s gullet). Both packages are generic, i.e., should work with Plain TeX, LaTeX or even other formats, relying on the `plainpkg' package for some minimal LaTeX-like behaviour. RELATED PACKAGES: `loops' and others mentioned in the `dowith' package documentation. KEYWORDS: macro programming, programming structures, loops, lists REQUIRED PACKAGES: `plainpkg', `stacklet' LICENSE: The package files `commado.sty', `filesdo.sty' and the files `commado.pdf' and `commado.tex' documenting both package files can be redistributed and/or modified under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License; either version 1.3c of the License, or any later version, see http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt There is NO WARRANTY, indeed this still is somewhat experimental. The `commado' package is author-maintained in the sense of the license. The latest public version of the package is available at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/commado/ A TDS version of the package is available as http://mirror.ctan.org/install/macros/latex/contrib/commado.tds.zip Please report bugs, problems, suggestions, and bad English via http://www.contact-ednotes.sty.de.vu ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/commado .

CTAN Update: etoc
by CTAN Announcements 25 Nov '12

25 Nov '12

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the etoc package. Summary description: easily customizable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.04 The main new feature is support for label and ef: I. ableofcontents label{toc:A} or ableofcontents* label{toc:A} creates a label toc:A as usual (the starred form gives a `local' table of contents). II. Elsewhere in the document, ableofcontents ef{toc:A} will re-display the contents of the TOC with label toc:A (the ef is detected and swallowed by ableofcontents). III. One can also do ableofcontents label{toc:B} ef{toc:A} Then ef{toc:B} may be used elsewhere in the document to refer to this toc:B location (it just prints the number of the concerned TOC, but is of course an hyperlink if package hyperref has been loaded). The two TOCs with labels toc:A and toc:B will have the same contents but their layouts and titles are decided locally and may differ completely from one another. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc .

CTAN Update: fileinfo
by CTAN Announcements 25 Nov '12

25 Nov '12

Uwe Lück submitted an update to the fileinfo package. Summary description: enhanced display of LaTeX File Information License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * `myfilist.sty' v0.71 has a reimplementation of FileListRemark that works with `filedate.sty''s FileDateAutoChecks. * This is exemplified in `gather.tex' that generates the list of LaTeX source files in the `fileinfo' bundle. * `readprov.sty' v0.5 provides ReadShInfos to process # ProvidesFile{<file>}[<info>] in shell script files <file>. This is exemplified in a parallel upload of the shell script package `adhocfilelist'. * The documentation inside both `.sty' files as well as some settings in the documentation generators `myfilist.tex' and `readprov.tex' have some adjustments/ corrections. * While `myfilist' originally was made for use /without/ typesetting (with TeX scripts), the documentation now notes that `ListFileInfos[<txt-file>]' can also be used /with/ typesetting in order to get listfiles output in a separate plain text file `<txt-file>' (/without/ remaining `.log' content). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fileinfo .
