The following information was provided by the package's contributor.

Name of contribution: refstyle Author's name: Danie Els Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/refstyle Summary description: Advanced formatting of cross references License type: lppl

Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The update fixes a problem with xkeyval and adds Norwegian definitions.

------------

The refstyle provides a consistent way of producing references throughout a project. Enough flexibility is provided to make local changes to a single reference. The user can configure his or own setup.

It has a direct interface to VARIOREF and namedref's from the NAMEDREF package can easily be incorporated (if needed). For large projects such as a series of books or a multi volume thesis, written as freestanding documents, a facility is provided to interface to the XR package for external document references.

The REFSTYLE package is BABEL compliant in that all language definitions are added to the extras<langauge> token list, enabling local and global language changes through the BABEL language changing commands. Afrikaans, Danish, English, German, Norwegian and Swedish definitions are provided --- any other contributions will be appreciated. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
