CTAN Update: numericplots
by CTAN Announcements 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

On Wed, 13 Jul 2011 Thomas Koenig and Alexander Michel submitted an update to the numericplots package. Summary description: package to plot numeric data using pstricks (including Matlab export) License type: gpl ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Plotting numeric data is a task which often has to be done for scientific papers. In LaTeX, however, it is only possible to include graphics created with an external program. The pstricks-packages provide very many commands to generate graphics in LaTeX. To generate simple graphics from numeric data, however, it is difficult to use. This package provides a simpler interface for the pstricks-package to plot numeric data. Additionally, it contains some Matlab functions to export such numeric data from Matlab for easy plotting of Matlab data in LaTeX. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pstricks/contrib/numericplots (Note the new location!) More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/numericplots (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 CTAN package: ltxkeys
by CTAN Announcements 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

the daemon arrived too late last night to deal with this one: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: ltxkeys > Author's name: Ahmed Musa > Location on CTAN: > Summary description: A robust key parser. > License type: lppl > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > The ltxkeys package provides facilities for creating and managing keys > in the sense of the keyval and xkeyval packages, but it is intended to > be more robust and faster. Its robustness emanates from its ability to > preserve braces in key values throughout parsing. The need to preserve > braces in key values arises often in parsing keys. This is often the > case in, eg, the xwatermark package. The package is faster than the > xkeyval package because, among other features, it avoids > character-wise parsing of key values (which is called selective > sanitization by the xkeyval package). > > It also provides additional functionalities for defining and managing keys. i have installed the new package, and made an entry in the catalogue repository that describes it. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/ltxkeys.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ltxkeys/ The catalogue entry will first appear on the web (some time) overnight tonight.
