CTAN has a new package: xetex-greek
by CTAN Announcements 10 Nov '06

10 Nov '06

On Tue, 7 Nov 2006, Apostolos Syropoulos submitted a new package called xetex-greek to CTAN. This package contains Greek hyphenation patterns for use with xetex. The files included in the archive are: - xgrmhyph.tex (for modern polutonic and monotonic Greek), - xgrahyph.tex (for ancient Greek), - xgrcodes.tex (category, upper/lowercase codes for all Greek letters). The hyphenation patterns are just the standard hyphenation patterns by D. Philippou adapted for use with xetex (only the catcodes, etc., files are my completely original contribution). Location on CTAN: /macros/xetex/hyphenation/greek License: LPPL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/xetex/hyphenation/greek . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=xetex-greek (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).

JavaScripts are written to record the score. If the score is greater than a given value, a hidden string is shown. The user should use the style with some screen presentation package, such as web or pdfscreen. For the new version of jeopardy package, a new option picture has been added. This option allows to build game where the user (student) answers questions and uncovers (after a correct answer) parts of hidden picture.
