Name of contribution: SKB
Version number: 0.5
Author's name: Sven van der Meer
Summary description: Create and maintain a repository for long-living documents
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to announce a new LaTeX package called skb.
This package provides macros that help to build a
document repository for
long living documents. It focuses on structure and
re-use of text, code,
figures etc. The basic concept is to first separate
structure from content
(i.e. text about a topic from the structure it is
presented by) and then
separating the content from the actual published
document, thus enabling
easy re-use of text blocks in different publications
(i.e. text about a
protocol in a short article about this protocol as well as
in a book about
many protocols); all without constantly copying or changing
text. As a side
effect, using the document classes provided, it hides a
lot of LaTeX from
someone who just wants to write articles and books.
skb.sty v0.5 : the skb package
skbarticle.cls v0.5 : an article class based on memoir
skbbook.cls v0.5 : a book class based memoir
skbbeamer.cls v0.5 : a beamer class based on beamer v3.10
skblncsbeamer.cls v0.5 : a class for annotated beamer slides
skblncsppt.cls v0.5 : a class for annotated ppt slides
See for more information the PDF documentation of this
package. The history
of the package is documented in /source/HISTORY.TXT
and in the PDF
documentation.
