the daemon, leaps into action for a rare upload from south africa:
The following information was provided by the package's contributor.
Name of contribution: Crossword Diagrams Author's name: Dirk Laurie Location on CTAN: crosswrd Summary description: Typeset blocked, barred or hybrid rectangular crosswords License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
This is a backward-compatible update for the package originally written by Brian Hamilton Kelly in 1995 and updated for Latex-2e by Frank Mittelbach in 2006. It implements the barred crossword envisaged by Brian himself, and adds rectangular grids as an option. Some macros for two-dimensional array processing may be of independent interest. The documentation is thoroughly revised and extended, including a brand-new thematic cryptic crossword.
thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the catalogue repository.
Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/crosswrd.html or they may browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/crosswrd/
The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
