CTAN update: ionumbers
by CTAN Announcements 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

This package has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thanks, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: ionumbers Author's name: Christian Schneider Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/ionumbers Summary description: Bugfix release License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This release is a bugfix release. Robert N{u}rnberg reported two problems in ionumbers v0.2.1-alpha: 1. compilation of code like $a^0$ or $sqrt 2$ will fail, if the digit (or sign/point/comma) is not grouped in curly braces 2. the operatorname macro of amsmath/amsopn leads to an error in combination with ionumbers In the current release (v0.2.3-alpha) the following fixes are included: 1. by adding a special handling of the first character of a number an ungrouped single digit or sign will no longer lead to a failure (similar to the ziffer.sty package, point and comma will still lead to a failure in these (rare) cases from the examples above; this is documented) 2. a warning message is added for the case that amsmath/amsopn is loaded; as a workaround the ionumbers package should be loaded as last package (as already suggested) and the operatorname macro should be used in ionumbersoff (this is documented); this problem is a result of amsopn's strategy of saving the standard mathcode of - and can hardly be fixed in ionumbers (amsopn together with ziffer.sty leads to the same error) 3. the ionumbers_test file contains a lot of different input with the output and expected output of ionumbers for different package options; this makes it easier to test ionumbers especially after changes Thanks a lot to Robert for his bug reports! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ionumbers .
