KKTeX submitted an update to the
KKsymbols
package.

Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets
Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------
New package options: `autolowercase' (on by default) routes a single lowercase ASCII letter through the lowercase-safe sizing path, and `linewidth' together with per-command keys such as `marulinewidth' sets the frame thickness of every TikZ-drawn enclosure.
The safe-sizing routes now fit arbitrary material uniformly against the outline that is really drawn, so multi-character arguments such as \maru*{abc} no longer cross their frames, while single lowercase letters keep the size they had in 2.2.2. \maru{c} and friends therefore look unchanged, and \maruhishi now reaches its intended rounded diamond rather than the filled one.
The documentation gains a recommended style for lowercase roman numerals -- the non-starred commands with one group-wide \kksref{\Rrnum{6}} -- and a corner-case test sheet whose figures the document measures at compile time.
