CTAN Update: Ledmac/ledpar
by CTAN Announcements 31 Aug '12

31 Aug '12

On Thu, 30 Aug 2012 Maïeul ROUQUETTE submitted an update to the ledmac and ledpar packages. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A minor correction is debug with lineation command. A major change is the add of new commands to allow easy customization of critical footnotes. These commands are : - umberonlyfirstinline[series] - symlinenum[series] - onumberinfootnote[series] - onumberthisnote - eforenumberinfootnote[series]{length} - afternumberinfootnote[series]{length} - eforesymlinenum[series]{length} - aftersymlinenum[series]{length} - inplaceofnumber[series]{length} - lemmaseparator[series]{text} - eforelemamseparator[series]{length} - afterlemmaseparator[series]{length} - olemmaseparator[series] - afternote[series]{length} - parafootsep[series]{text} These commandes are documented on page 17 and next. I think they makes personal Xfootmt commands deprecated. But for people how wanted to conserv their own definition of Xfootmt, they should replace defXfootmt#1#2#3{code} or ewcommand{Xfootmt}[3]{code} by ewcommandx{Xfootmt}[4][4]{code}. Note this version requires package xargs and etoolbox, which are in all recent TeX distribution. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ledmac . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ledmac (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 .
