The following information was provided by the package's contributor.
Name of contribution: turnthepage Author's name: Merciadri Luca Author's email: Luca.Merciadri@student.ulg.ac.be Location on CTAN: [see before] Summary description: [see before] License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
Update to v.1.3a.
The package could not be used on all LaTeX distributions, esp. when they are not e-TeX capable.
Fortunately, Mr. Martin Münch had previously implemented the pagesLTS package, which does not rely on e-TeX. It allowed him to write three files:
- turnpageetex: old turnthepage's equivalent (using e-TeX),
- turnpagewoetex: old turnthepage's equivalent using pagesLTS,
- turnthepage: main file.
The package now works for users who do not have e-TeX: when invoking turnthepage, the turnthepage package decides to use either turnpageetex or turnpagewoetex depending on e-TeX availability. It is also possible to use e.g. the turnpagewoetex package independently. Many thanks go to Mr. Martin Münch for this, who also added info messages depending on the package's status so that the user is now more aware about what's going on.
thanks for the upload; i have installed the new files and updated the catalogue repository.
Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/turnthepage.html or they may browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/turnthepage/
The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight. (if my cron jobs run...)
