New CTAN Package: sepfootnotes
by CTAN Announcements 06 Mar '12

06 Mar '12

On Tue, 6 Mar 2012 Eduardo C. Lourenço de Lima submitted the sepfootnotes package. Summary description: Footnotes in separate file License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package allows the content of footnotes to be defined before their marks are inserted in a document. Footnotes and endnotes can, thus, be easily grouped together in a separate file, so that the main body is less cluttered. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/sepfootnotes . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/sepfootnotes (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 .

06 Mar '12

On Tue, 6 Mar 2012 Markus Kohm submitted an update to the koma-script package. Summary description: KOMA-Script a versatile LaTeX2e bundle License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- KOMA-Script is a versatile bundle of LaTeX2e document classes and packages. It aims to be a replacement to the standard LaTeX2e classes. KOMA-Script does not stop with the features known from the standard classes, but it extends the possibilities in order to provide the user an almost complete working environment. Classes at KOMA-Script: scrartcl (article class), scrbook (book class), scrdoc (internal), scrguide (internal), scrlettr (obsolete), scrlttr2 (letter class), scrreprt (report class). Packages at KOMA-Script: scraddr (handling of address files), scrbase (basic features for class and package authors, e.g, key-value-options), scrdate (e.g., name of the day), scrextend (provides some KOMA-Script features for users of other classes), scrfontsizes (developer help package to generate font size files), scrhack (beta, improves some other packages), scrjura (beta, writing laws, contracts etc.), scrkbase (sub-package used by KOMA-Script classes and packages), scrlfile (manipulations while loading files, packages or classes), scrpage (obsolete), scrpage2 (configuration and definition of page styles), scrtime (output of current time), scrwfile (minimize number of write handles and provide cloning of helper files), tocbasic (easy generation and handling of table of contents and lists of floats), tocstyle (alpha), typearea (professional type area and borders for ordinary persons). Main documentation files: scrguide.pdf (German), scrguien.pdf (English), scrhack.pdf (English), scrjura.pdf (German), tocstyle.pdf (English). For a detailed list of changes see <http://www.komascript.de/release> (in German) or <http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4307> (in English) or simply the ChangeLog inside the bundle. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/koma-script/ .

CTAN Update: soulpos
by CTAN Announcements 06 Mar '12

06 Mar '12

On Sat, 25 Feb 2012 Javier Bezos submitted the soulpos package. Summary description: Fancy underlining License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package combines soul with the savepos mechanism provided by the pdftex engine, so that you can create (almost) arbitrary underlining and similar ``decorations'', including rules, leaders and even pictures (pgf, pstricks, etc.). Unlike soul underlines, which are built by repeating small elements, here each chunk of text to be underlined is a single element. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/bezos . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/soulpos (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 .
