CTAn Update: ctable 1.12
by CTAN Announcements 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

On Sun, 13 Apr 2008 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 (relative to v1.11): - added option notespar, typesetting footnotes in a paragraph, one after the other. Useful for tables with many short footnotes. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 .

CTAN Update: biblatex-dw
by CTAN Announcements 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

On Sun, 13 Apr 2008 Dominik Wassenhoven submitted an update to the biblatex-dw package. It is a small collection of styles for the biblatex package. It was designed for citations in the humanities and offers some features that are not provided by the standard biblatex styles. Biblatex-dw is dependent on biblatex (at least version 0.7) and cannot be used without it. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- v1.1b - BUGFIX: When using parencite with 'footnote-dw', additional parentheses (e.g. enclosing the string 'editor') were lost; they are now replaced by brackets. - BUGFIX: In 'footnote-dw', the normal cite command always produced a capital letter at the beginning. This is fixed now. - Fixed a small punctuation error in connection with 'herename';. - New command itleaddonpunct for the punctuation before titleaddon, booktitleaddon and maintitleaddon. The default is a period now (not a comma, as before). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=biblatex-dw (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 .

CTAN Update: minipage-marginpar
by CTAN Announcements 08 Apr '08

08 Apr '08

On Mon, 7 Apr 2008 Paul Ebermann submitted an update to the minipage-marginpar package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/minipage-marginpar Summary description: Package-update: minipage-marginpar (bugfix and namechange) License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package allows marginpar -commands inside of minipages and other boxes. (It takes another approach than marginnote by Markus Kohm: it saves all marginpar -commands and typesets them outside (i.e., after) the box.) Version 0.3 fixes a bug, which caused marginpars of some kind only appearing on odd pages, not even ones. In my documents I don't have much of those, so I remarked it only now, nearly two years after version 0.2 (which introduced this bug, fixing another one). At the same time, i decided to change the name of the package files from mpgmpar to minipage-marginpar, as already is the CTAN directory name. (There is a compatibility style file, which simply loads the new one.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/minipage-marginpar .

by CTAN Announcements 07 Apr '08

On Sun, 6 Apr 2008, Axel Sommerfeldt submitted an update to the caption package. The caption package provides many ways to customise the captions in floating environments like figure and table, and cooperates with many other packages.

A list of compatibility notes, for other packages, is provided in the documentation. The package also provides the caption outside float facility, in the same way that simpler packages like capt-of do. The package supersedes caption2.
