CTAN upload: lblchng1.sty -- fix oscillating pagebreaks
by CTAN Announcements 18 Feb '05

18 Feb '05

On Thu, 17 Feb 2005 Uwe Lück submitted an addition to the ednotes package: Name of contribution: lblchng1.sty -- fix oscillating page breaks Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/ednotes Summary description: Tool + discussion concerning unstable page breaks License type: LaTeX Project Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This LaTeX macro package is a (primitive) tool for fixing oscillating page breaks -- a problem that especially sometimes occurs in typesetting critical editions. Thus it addresses especially users of LaTeX packages lineno, ednotes, and ledmac (maybe even manyfoot and numline). When it has been invoked and some label(s) get an entry in .aux file differing, with respect to page number, to that of the previous run, the first such label is reported on screen (and in the .log), including the differing page numbers. This should help in finding the first unstable page -- which is vital. The file contains more detailed explanations and discussions. (For wizards: of course, it just refines LaTeX's @testdef a little.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

CTAN update: isodate
by CTAN Announcements 18 Feb '05

18 Feb '05

On Thu, 17 Feb 2005, Harald Harders uploaded an update to his isodate package. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/isodate License: LPPL >From the README: Tune the output format of dates. This package provides ten output formats of the commands oday, printdate, printdateTeX, and daterange (partly language dependent): ISO (yyyy-mm-dd), numeric (e.g. dd.,mm.~yyyy), short (e.g. dd.,mm.,yy), TeX (yyyy/mm/dd), original (e.g. dd. mmm yyyy), short original (e.g. dd. mmm yy), as well as numerical formats with Roman numerals for the month. The commands printdate and printdateTeX print any date. The date is given as an argument using the actual date format for output: printdate{yyyy-mm-dd}, printdate{dd.mm.yyyy}, or printdate{dd/mm/yyyy}, and printdateTeX{yyyy/mm/dd}. The command daterange prints a date range and leaves out unnecessary year or month entries. E.g. 2000-05-03 to 2000-05-08 leads to `2000-05-03 to 08'. ChangeLog: 2005/02/17 v2.24 Harald Harders (h.harders(a)tu-bs.de) - Add option frenchb. 2004/11/19 v2.23 Harald Harders (h.harders(a)tu-bs.de) - Avoid to use the exttt{calc} package since it causes problems with many other packages. Thanks for the update. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

CTAN upload: Perl mathsPIC 1.00
by CTAN Announcements 18 Feb '05

18 Feb '05

On Tue, 15 Feb 2005, Apostolos Syropoulos submitted version 1.00 of the package mathspic-perl to CTAN. MathsPIC(Perl) is a development of the earlier <xref refid='mathspic-dos'>MathsPIC(DOS)</xref> program; implemented as a Perl script, it is much more portable than the earlier program. MathsPIC parses a plain text input file and generates a plain text output-file containing commands for drawing a diagram. Version 1.0 produces output containing PiCTeX and (La)TeX commands, which may then be processed by plain TeX or LaTeX in the usual way. MathsPIC also outputs a comprehensive log-file. MathsPIC facilitates creating figures using PiCTeX by providing an environment for manipulating named points and also allows the use of variables and maths (advance, multiply, and divide) - in short - it takes the pain out of PiCTeX. Location on CTAN: graphics/pictex/mathspic/perl (Location of older dos version: graphics/pictex/mathspic/dos) License type: dfsg Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

17 Feb '05

On Wed, 16 Feb 2005 Frank Küster submitted an update of his package alnumsec to CTAN. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/alnumsec Summary description: alphanumeric sectioning numbering with standard sectioning commands License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package allows you to use alphanumeric section numbering, e.g.: A. Introduction; III. International Law. It s output is similar to alphanum.sty, but you can use the standard LaTeX sectioning commands. Thus it is possible to switch numbering schemes easily. Greek letters, double letters (bb) and different delimiters around them are supported. This version v0.02 includes one new feature: Full section numbers are always printed in references (e.g.: see A.II.3.b.), even if the section numbers do not include higher level numbers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the update.
