This package has been updated at 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: Hyphenation Patterns in UTF-8 Author's name: Mojca Miklavec Location on CTAN: /language/hyph-utf8 Summary description: Hyphenation patterns have been converted into UTF-8 and should serve as a replacement for the old patterns without any change in functionality. The patterns should be considered upstream replacement that will be used in TeX Live and other distrubutions instead of loading the old files. License type: other-free Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - added Lithuanian patterns - added Gujurati script (Sanskrit) - replaced Hungarian patterns with a newer version ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/language/hyph-utf8 .

tug.ctan.org upload: ionumbers

02 Nov '08

This package has been installed at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thanks again, 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: restyle numbers in math mode License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `ionumbers' stands for `input/output numbers'. This package restyles numbers in math mode. If a number in the input file is written, e.g., as |$3,231.44$| as commonly used in English texts, this package is able to restyle it to be output as `$3,231{,}44$' as commonly used in German texts (and vice versa). This may be very useful, if you have a large table and want to include it in texts with different output conventions without the need of changing the table. Furthermore this package can automatically group digits left to the decimal separator (thousands) and right to the decimal separator (thousandths) in triplets without the need of specifing commas (English) or points (German) as separators. E.g., the input |$1234.567890$| can be output as `$1,234.,567,890$'. Finally, an |e| starts the exponent of the number. For example, |$21e6$| may be output as `$26 imes10,^{6}$'. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ionumbers .
