Robert Alessi submitted an update to the arabluatex package. Version number: 1.13 2018-08-27 License type: gpl3+ cc-by-sa-4 Summary description: An ArabTeX-like interface for LuaLaTeX Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- arabluatex v1.13: - Exporting Unicode Arabic to an external file: arabluatex is now able to produce a duplicate of the original .tex source file in which all arabtex or buckwalter strings will have been replaced with Unicode equivalents, either in Arabic script or in any accepted standard of transliteration. See the documentation on pp. 57-59 for more details. As a result of this new feature, it is now possible to further process Unicode converted files with document converters such as pandoc. - New optional argument to arbmark, either 'rl' or 'lr', to override the contextual analysis. - New 'color' option to 'arabverse' environment. - Use precomposed unicode ǧ/Ǧ instead of 'g/G + caron above' - A quick fix to a tiny bug (or rather a missing feature) in either 'adjustbox' or 'luacolor' has been added. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/arabluatex The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/arabluatex ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Nicola Talbot submitted the tex-locale package. Version: 1.0 2018-08-26 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Localisation support for TeX and LaTeX documents Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package uses both tracklang and texosquery to look up the locale information from the operating system and provide commands that can access locale-dependent infor- mation, such as the currency symbol and decimal separator. The file tex-locale.tex provides generic TeX code. The LaTeX package tex-locale.sty can additionally load babel or polyglossia with the locale's language setting, as well as various other packages such as fontspec (XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX) or fontenc + inputenc (PDFLaTeX). LaTeX example: documentclass{article} usepackage{tex-locale} egin{document} Today: CurrentLocaleShortDate. Currency: CurrentLocaleCurrency. end{document} TeX example: input tex-locale Today: CurrentLocaleShortDate. Currency: CurrentLocaleCurrency. ye Note that texosquery requires the Java Runtime Environment. See the texosquery documentation for setup instructions. If you can't use TeX's piped shell escape, see the tex-locale documentation for an alternative method. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/tex-locale The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/tex-locale/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
