On Sat, 22 Nov 2008 Grzegorz Murzynowski submitted an update to the
gmdoc
package.
Gmdoc is a LaTeX package and an example class for documenting (La)TeX packages,
document classes, .dtx etc., providing hyperlinks. The package is believed to
be compatible with doc and permits minimal markup of code (the macrocode
environment is no longer necessary). The package provides automatic detection
of definitions (detecting such things as def,
ewcommand, DeclareOption
etc.).
The package needs hyperref and the author’s three ‘‘basic’ packages:
gmutils,
gmverb, and
gmiflink
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/gmdoc
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

provides oCTAN macro, a shorthand for changes{ver.}{date}{put to CTAN on
date}

Updated version of verbatimcopy.
The code has been rewritten by Ulrich Diez such that it can now handle

Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.2c
- New option 'idembibformat': When using 'idembib=true',
you can choose whether you want to have an 'idem' string
in the bibliography (idembibformat=idem) or a dash
(idembibformat=dash), as is the standard setting in
biblatex. The standard is 'idembibformat=idem'.
- Option 'idembib' changed: Now 'false' means that
subsequent entries of the same author are given with full
names, not a dash (as was the behaviour up to now). The
standard is 'idembib=true'.
- Improved xref support: The child entry does not only scan
for the 'volume' field of the parent entry, but prints
also 'location' and 'year', if they differ from the
parent entry.
