CTAN update notification: ednotes.sty -- minimal updates / warning
by CTAN Announcements 07 Feb '05

07 Feb '05

On Sun, 6 Feb 2005 Uwe Lück submitted an update to his ednotes package. Ednotes is a macro package for typesetting scholarly critical editions. Provides macros for critical edition typesetting with LaTeX including support for line numbers and layers of footnotes. License: LPPL Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/ednotes Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Minimal news: 1.) Fix of warnings that turned into undefined errors. 2.) EdnoTUGb.pdf now acknowledges that the most recent version of LEDMAC reported is v0.6 (e.g.: if you want to tell somebody ...). BTW: Roy Flechner succeeded in producing oscillating page breaks with pagewise line numbering. Until I can help considerably, please care yourself of the problem -- please ask at uwe.lueck at web.de if you're afraid of being another victim. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the update For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
