Re: CTAN submission: csquotes 2.6
by CTAN Announcements 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

On Thu, 24 Feb 2005, Philipp Lehman uploaded version 2.6 of his package csquotes to CTAN. This package provides markup for inline quotations by means of control sequences and active quote characters. The quotation marks are context sensitive, they alternate for nested quotes and can adapt to the document language by interfacing with the babel package. The active quote characters and all quotation styles are fully configurable. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/csquotes/ License: LPPL Changes: * Always reset quote style, even for inner quotes * Fixed bug preventing hyphenation in certain places Thanks for the upload.

Re: hepparticles and maybemath

Andy Buckley has submitted upgrades of the hepparticles and maybemath packages. Change information is: > ---- > maybemath provides macros for making math mode expressions bold, > upright, italic or sans-serif according to context. This release adds > the sans-serif feature and fixes several bugs which were affecting > robustness in specific nested contexts. > ---- > > ---- > hepparticles is a set of macros for typesetting high energy physics > particle names. This release largely overhauls the internal package > structure, providing extremely flexible particle typesetting structures > for standard particles, anti-particles, SUSY particles and their > anti-particles (both as generic labels and as concrete names) and for > constructing resonance specifiers. In addition, several low-level macros > are exposed for the few cases in which the package does not provide the > required semantic structures. Whether an upright or italic convention is > used for specific particle names can be specified as a package option. > ---- i've installed the two new versions in macros/latex/contrib/(hepparticles|maybemath)/ here at cambridge. they will be at the other ctan sites soon, and at mirrors over the next few days. thanks, Andy, for the updates.
