CTAN update: TeXshade v1.15
by CTAN Announcements 27 Jun '06

27 Jun '06

On Tue, 27 Jun 2006, Eric Beitz submitted an update to the texshade package. TeXshade is an alignment shading software completely written in TeX/LaTeX which can process multiple sequence alignments in the .MSF and the .ALN file format. It provides in addition to common shading algorithms special shading modes featuring functional aspects, e.g. charge or hydropathy, and a plenitude of commands for handling shading colors, text styles, labels, legends and even allows the user to define completely new sha- ding modes. TeXshade combines highest flexibility and the habitual TeX output quality--with reasonable time expenditure. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/texshade/ License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TeXshade sequence and subfamily logos do not need pstricks anymore. Bug fixes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

CTAN package update: PerlTeX
by CTAN Announcements 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

This package has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you Scott. Jim Hefferon St Michael's College ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: PerlTeX Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/perltex Summary description: Define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PerlTeX is a combination Perl script (perltex.pl) and LaTeX2e style file (perltex.sty) that, together, give the user the ability to define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code. Once defined, a Perl macro becomes indistinguishable from any other LaTeX macro. PerlTeX thereby combines LaTeX's typesetting power with Perl's programmability. PerlTeX v1.3 adds code to work around a limitation of the Perl sandbox (i.e., that certain constructs fail even when perltex is run with the --nosafe option) and introduces a perldo macro that enables the execution of Perl code outside of any subroutine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- See this package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/perltex .

On Tue, 20 Jun 2006, Olga Lapko submitted an update to the lh package. Location on CTAN: /fonts/cyrillic/lh Summary description: Cyrillic fonts with support of LaTeX standard encodings License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The LH fonts address the problem of the wide variety of alphabets that are written with Cyrillic-style characters.

The fonts are available in Adobe Type 1 format, in the CM-Super family of fonts. ----- Changes: Added directories in fonts/source/lh directory for Concrete boldface fonts. The TeX source files for creation of METAFONT files moved to source/fonts/lh directory to follow TeX Directory Structure rules. Added minor LaTeX support for standard LaTeX and traditional Cyrillic encodings (for SliTeX, CM Bright, Concrete fonts). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN has a new package: pkfix-helper
by CTAN Announcements 20 Jun '06

20 Jun '06

A new package has been installed at tug.ctan.org and should soon make its way to the mirror that you like best. Thank you, Scott. Jim Hefferon St Michael's College ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: pkfix-helper Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /support/pkfix-helper Summary description: Help pkfix process PostScript files produced by ancient versions of dvips License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pkfix is a useful utility for replacing resolution-dependent bitmapped fonts in a dvips-produced PostScript file with the corresponding resolution-independent vector fonts. Unfortunately, pkfix needs to parse certain PostScript comments that appear only in files produced by dvips versions later than 5.58 (ca. 1996); it fails to work on PostScript files produced by older versions of dvips. pkfix-helper is a program that attempts to insert newer-dvips comments into an older-dvips PostScript file, thereby making the file suitable for processing by pkfix. pkfix-helper can sometimes process documents fully autonomously but does require the user to verify and, if needed, correct its decisions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- See this package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/pkfix-helper .
