pzccal
package.
Summary description: Zapf Chancery as calligraphic math alphabet
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List by Scott Pakin describes the
use of Zapf Chancery as a mathematical alphabet that contains capital
and small Latin letters as well as digits. This allows full coverage
of the script Unicode Mathematical Alphabet with 8-bit LaTeX engines.
This package sets up the Zapf Chancery font as script (calligraphic)
math alphabet mathpzc. It provides options to scale the font and to
configure the alias command name. By default, it overwrites the
predefined math alphabet command mathcal.

This package provides many macros used by me, also copied

On Wed, 2 Feb 2011 Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the
sty2dtx
package.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Changelog:
* Better handling of code comments:
- Comments direct before a macro or environment definition
are now placed inside the corresponding
description environment before `egin{macrocode}`.
- Separate comment lines stay as they are and will be normal
text in the .DTX file.
- Commented text inside definitions will cause the `macrocode`
environment to be interrupted and reopened afterwards.
- Code lines which are commented out (i.e. are indented and
there is no space after the '%' sign) will stay as part of
the macro code.
* Added '-c' (generate code section only) option. This resembles
the output of v1.0 and is useful to insert more code into
exisiting .DTX files.
* Config files can now include comment lines as well.
These lines must start with '%' or '#'.
