CTAN Update: mathastext
by CTAN Announcements 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

On Tue, 1 Feb 2011 Jean-Francois Burnol submitted an update of the mathastext package to CTAN. Summary description: Use the text font in simple mathematics License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The mathastext package propagates the document text font to mathematical mode, for the letters of the Latin alphabet and, optionally, other characters in the font. Thus it makes possible (for a document with simple mathematics) to use a quite arbitrary text font without worrying too much that no specially designed accompanying maths fonts are available. The package also offers a simple mechanism for using many different choices of (text hence, now, math) font in the same document. Of course, using one font for two purposes helps produce smaller PDF files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mathastext/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=mathastext (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 .

tug.ctan.org offline
by CTAN Announcements 30 Jan '11

30 Jan '11

I am offline, pending an improvement of conditions. This includes tug.ctan.org, www.ctan.org, and az.ctan.org on the interfaces http, ftp, and rsync. In case I do not come back, I would like to thank the people that I have enjoyed working with over the years. I would also like to thank the TeX Users Group, including the board and particularly including Karl, for their sponsorship. And, I would be remiss if I didn't again acknowledge the support provided by Saint Michael's College to me, and to the entire TeX community, in bearing the Internet traffic. Jim Hefferon

The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: bytefield Version number: 2.0 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/bytefield/ Summary description: Draw network-protocol specifications and other bit-field representations License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The bytefield package helps the user create illustrations for network protocol specifications and anything else that utilizes fields of data. These illustrations show how the bits and bytes are laid out in a packet or in memory. Version 2.0 improves the user interface, albeit in a non-backwards-compatible way. The package now uses a key=value interface to specify formatting parameters either globally or local to an individual diagram; rows are now grouped using a more LaTeX-like syntax; and there are more opportunities for customizing the appearance of a diagram. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/bytefield/ .

by CTAN Announcements 29 Jan '11

29 Jan '11

This should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College Update summary: This version 2.0 has new symbols for integrated circuits in american style (IEEE), a new symbol for a 7-segment-diode and some more new symbols. Read the documentation for more informations. Basic package information, as sent by the contributor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Location: /graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-circ Author: Herbert Voß License: lppl Caption: PSTricks package for drawing electric circuits. Description: Pst-circ is a package built using PSTricks and in particular pst-node. It can easily draw current 2-terminal devices and some 3- and 4-terminal devices used in electronic or electric theory. The package’s macros are designed with a view to ‘logical’ representation of circuits, as far as possible, so as to relieve the user of purely graphical considerations when expressing a circuit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/pst-circ (this may take a day to sync). Our archive service happens in cooperation with the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
