CTAN update: expl3

the daemon is surely getting tired, after recent excessive exercise, but neverthe less he says: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: expl3 > Author's name: LaTeX project > Author's email: joseph.wright(a)morningstar2.co.uk > Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/expl3 > Summary description: Packages showing a proposed LaTeX3 programming convention > License type: lppl > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > The expl3 bundle: low-level LaTeX3 coding > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > The files of the expl3 bundle provide a low-level API for TeX > programmers with special syntax conventions, completely > separating it from document level syntax.

CTAN Update: ctable 1.15
by CTAN Announcements 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

On Thu, 17 Sep 2009, Wybo Dekker submitted an update to the ctable package. ctable.sty provides commands to easily typeset centered or left or right aligned tables and (multiple-)figure floats, with footnotes. Instead of an environment, a command with 4 arguments is used; the first is optional and is used for key,value pairs generating variations on the defaults and offering a route for future extensions. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/ctable License: LPPL --------------------------------------------------------------------- major changes of v1.15 relative to v1.14): - removed whitespace before tables, - corrected marginpars in the documentation --------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ctable . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=ctable (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 .
