Clemens Niederberger submitted an update to the
acro
package.
Summary description: typeset acronyms
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- new option `sort' to printacronyms
- renamed options `print-acronyms/header' and `list-header'
into `print-acronyms/heading' and `list-heading';
the old keys will still work but also issue a warning
- new key `foreign' for acronyms in other languages than
the document language
- the page-recording and printing mechanism for the page
numbers of the acronyms in the list has been rewritten
from scratch. The previous one had a fundamental flaw:
it didn't take the fact into account that page numbers
are stepped at shipout. This is fixed now.
- options `page-ranges' and `record-pages' are deprecated
- new options `following-page' and `following-pages'
