Oliver Beery submitted an update to the
fontscale
package.
Version: 4.0.0 2025-03-02
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: A flexible interface for setting font sizes
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## [v4.0.0] - 2025-03-02
### Added
- `fontscale` version 3 can be used by declaring `\usepackage{fontscale}[=v3]`.
- `fontscale-v3.sty`
### Removed
- The package keys and commands that take a dimen or skip expression as a value
or argument no longer append a default unit of `pt` and remove extra trailing
tokens, if any. (This feature had relied on exploiting `expl3` implementation
details.)
### Changed
- `fontscale` is no longer compatible with the `scalefnt` package.
- The keys `<font size command>` are now shortcuts for the keys `<font size
command>/size`. (The previous functionality no longer makes syntactic sense
given the removal of default unit support.)
- Renamed the document commands using the recommended all-lowercase convention:
- `\CurrentFontStep` to `\currentfontstep`
- `\CurrentFontScale` to `\currentfontscale`
- `\CurrentFontSize` to `\currentfontsize`
- `\CurrentFontBaselineskip` to `\currentfontbaselineskip`
- `\SetFontStep` to `\setfontstep`
- `\SetFontScale` to `\setfontscale`
- `\SetFontSize` to `\setfontsize`
- `\ScaleFont` to `\scalefont`
- `\SetFontSizeBaselineskip` to `\setfontsizebaselineskip`
- `\SetFontBaselineskip` to `\setfontbaselineskip`
- `\PrintFontSizeParameters` to `\printfontsizeparameters`
- `\PrintAllFontSizeParameters` to `\printallfontsizeparameters`
- `\PrintSampleText` to `\printsampletext`
- `\PrintFontSizeCommand` to `\printfontsizecommand`

datatool-english
package.
Version: 1.0

Summary description: English language support for datatool.sty v3.0+
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The datatool-english bundle provides the English ldf files for the datatool
package (v3.0+).
The *.ldf files should all be placed on TeX's path.
These files don't require any explicit loading. They will
automatically be input by datatool-base.sty (or relevant
supplementary package) if they are found and required by the
tracklang localisation settings. See the datatool v3.0+ manual
for further details.
The English files provide encoding support for UTF-8 and
ISO-8859-1 (Latin 1). Any other encoding will be treated as US-ASCII.
This bundle also includes limited support for Old English (Anglo-Saxon)
mainly to provide an example for a language that has multiple scripts
(in this case, Latin and Runic) or for a language that has an extended
Latin or non-Latin script. The language codes are ang-Latn for Anglo-Saxon
Latin Script and ang-Runr for Anglo-Saxon Runic Script. There's only
support for UTF-8 with the Anglo-Saxon files.
**This is being released in advance of the upcoming datatool v3.0 release.**
These files will be ignored by existing versions of datatool.

Nicola Talbot submitted the
datatool-regions
package.
Version: 1.0
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Region (Numeric) Support for datatool v3.0+
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The datatool-regions bundle provides the language-independent
region ldf files for the datatool package (v3.0+).
The *.ldf files should all be placed on TeX's path.
These files don't require any explicit loading. They will
automatically be input by datatool-base.sty (or relevant
supplementary package) if they are found and required by the
tracklang localisation settings. See the datatool v3.0+ manual
for further details.
The region files deal with defining (if applicable) the currency
symbol and switching to the region's currency in the region's hook.
Region files may additionally (if not dependent on the language) set
the number group and decimal characters (for formatting and parsing),
and provide functions for parsing numeric dates and times.
**This is being released in advance of the upcoming datatool v3.0 release.**
These files will be ignored by existing versions of datatool.
Only a limited number of regions are currently included.
Additional regions can be added via pull request on GitHub
