Daniel Flipo submitted an update to the babel-french package. Version: 2025-06-28 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Babel contributed support for French Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a major update. The package is now split into two parts: * file frenchb3.dtx for pdfTeX and XeTeX engines (frozen), * file frenchb.dtx for LuaTeX only. For the end-user nothing changes: \usepackage[french]{babel} automatically loads either french.ldf if the file is compiled with LuaTeX, or french3.ldf if the file is compiled with pdfTeX or XeTeX. New for LuaTeX users: * new option TocPartFullName, * new lua function "euphonic_t" to inhibit hyphenation on the second hyphen of strings like "semble-t-il", * bug fix: \spaceskip is now handled properly when non null, * and more: see section "Changes" in frenchb.pdf or frenchb-doc.pdf. PDF tagging: lists' customisation is disabled when tagging is enabled. see [details](https://github.com/latex3/tagging-project/issues/694). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/babel-french The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/babel-contrib/french/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

If `-output-directory` is provided, it may not contain spaces and it won't be automatically detected by MikTeX, see also [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630].

CTAN update: expltools
by CTAN Announcements 25 Jun '25

25 Jun '25

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the expltools package. Version number: 2025-06-24 License type: lppl1.3c gpl2+ Summary description: Development tools for expl3 programmers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## expltools 2025-06-24 ### explcheck v0.11.0 #### Development This version of explcheck has implemented the following new features: - Detect base forms of deprecated conditional function names. (#95, c96332f, 3a4dfbf) - Improve support for low-confidence function variant definitions. (#99) - Previously, when unexpected material was encountered in variant argument specifiers, variants for all possible sets of specifiers were expected to be defined with low confidence. However, for base functions with many specifiers, this behavior was disabled because it would lead to a combinatorial explosion. After this change, all possible variants are efficiently encoded using a pattern, which allowed us to support arbitrarily many arguments. - Recognize more argument specifiers in function (variant) definitions. (#99) This includes support for c-type csname arguments and non-n-type replacement text arguments. In the latter case, the replacement text is not analyzed and the function is assumed to be defined with unknown replacement text. - Add support for detecting function use in c- and v-type arguments. (#99) Previously, if a function `\__example_foo:n` was defined and then used as `\use:c { __example_foo:n }`, issue W401 (Unused private function) would be raised. After this change, issues like W401 and W402 (Unused private function variant) are no longer reported in such cases. Furthermore, if a c- or v-type argument can only be partially understood, such as `\use:c { __example_foo: \unexpected }`, a pattern `__example_foo:*` is generated and functions whose name matches the pattern are marked as used with low confidence. However, such pattern is only produced when at least N tokens from the argument can be recognized, where N is given by a new Lua option `min_simple_tokens_in_csname_pattern` (default is 5 tokens). - Require more context cues to determine that the whole file is in expl3 when the Lua option `expl3_detection_strategy` is set to "auto", which it is by default. (#99) Previously, any expl3-like material, as defined by the LPEG parser `expl3like_material`, would have been sufficient. However, several packages such as rcs and fontinst would place colons (:) directly after control sequences, confusing the detector. Therefore, N separate instances of expl3-like material are now required, where N is given by a new Lua option `min_expl3like_material` (default is 5 instances). - Recognize indirect applications of creator functions via `\cs_generate_from_arg_count:NNnn` as function definitions. (#99) - Add module `explcheck-latex3.lua` that includes LPEG parsers and other information extraction from LaTeX3 data files. (#99) This module was previously named `explcheck-obsolete.lua` and only included information about deprecated control sequences extracted from the file `l3obsolete.txt`. The new module also contains registered LaTeX module names extracted from the file `l3prefixes.csv`. This new information is used to determine whether a control sequence is well-known in order to reduce false positive detections of issues such as E408 (Calling an undefined function). - Add more support for semantic analysis. (#99) This adds support for the following new issues from Section 4 of the document titled [_Warnings and errors for the expl3 analysis tool_][warnings-and-errors]: 1. T400[^t400] (Expanding an unexpandable variable or constant) 2. E408[^e408] (Calling an undefined function) 3. E411 (Indirect function definition from an undefined function) This concludes all planned issues from Section 4.1 (Functions and conditional functions) from this document. [^t400]: This issue has later been moved to Section 3 of the same document and renamed to T305, since it can be detected by the syntactic analysis already. [^e408]: By default, all standard library prefixes, defined by the parser `expl3_standard_library_prefixes`, as well as registered prefixes from the file `l3prefixes.csv` are excluded from this error. Besides well-known prefixes, you may also declare other imported prefixes using a new Lua option `imported_prefixes`. For example, here is how your config file `.explcheckrc` might look if you use the function `\precattl_exec:n` from the package precattl: ``` csv [defaults] imported_prefixes = ["precattl"] ``` - Add command-line options `--config-file` and `--no-config-file`. (suggested by @muzimuzhi in #101, implemented in #99) - Add Lua option `fail_fast` that controls whether the processing of a file stops after the first step that produced any errors. The default value is `true`, which means that the processing stops after the first error. (#99) #### Warnings and errors This version of explcheck has made the following changes to the document titled [_Warnings and errors for the expl3 analysis tool_][warnings-and-errors]: - Gray out issues that are only planned and not yet implemented. (#99) - Remove the planned issue E406 (Multiply defined function). (#99) Semantic analysis wouldn't be able to distinguish between multiply defined functions and functions that are defined in different code paths that never meet. - Remove issue W407 (Multiply defined function variant) and plan for a replacement issue W501 of the same name for the flow analysis. (#99) Semantic analysis can't distinguish between multiply defined variants and variants that are defined in different code paths that never meet. - Merge the planned issues E408 (Calling an undefined function) and E409 (Calling an undefined function variant) into E408. (#99) - Plan for a flow-aware variant E504 (Function variant for an undefined function) of issue E405 of the same name. (#99) - Add extra examples for planned issue E500 (Multiply defined function). (#99) - Include functions `\*_count:N` in the planned issue T420 (Using a variable of an incompatible type). (suggested by @FrankMittelbach in latex3/latex3#1754, fixed in #97 and #99) - Remove issue T400 (Expanding an unexpandable variable or constant) and create a corresponding issue T305 for the syntactic analysis. (#99) - Plan for a flow-aware variant E506 (Indirect function definition from an undefined function) of issue E411 of the same name. (#99) - Plan for issue E515 (Paragraph token in the parameter of a "nopar" function) and remove the item "Verifying the 'nopar' restriction on functions" from Section "Caveats". (#99) [warnings-and-errors]: https://github.com/witiko/expltools/releases/download/latest/warnings-and-e… #### Fixes This version of explcheck has fixed the following bugs: - Do not report issue E405 (Function variant for an undefined function) for standard functions from the modules ltmarks, ltpara, ltproperties, and ltsockets. (fixed in commit cb0713df, based on [a TeX StackExchange post][tse/739823/70941] by @cfr42) - Do not report issue S206 (Malformed variable or constant name) when issue W200 ("Do not use" argument specifiers) is reported for the same control sequence. (reported by @muzimuzhi in #100, fixed in #99) [tse/739823/70941]: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/739823/70941 - Mark file `explcheck.lua` as executable in archive `expltools.ctan.zip`.

plante submitted the tokmap package. Version: 1.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Iterate over a token list expandably, without dropping spaces or braced groups Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage: `\tokmap <command> { <tokens> }` applies command over the token list tokens. Space tokens, left and right braces are replaced with the marker tokens `\tokmap@space`, `\tokmap@bgroup`, and `\tokmap@egroup` respectively (who are `\ifx`-equal to themselves exclusively). For convenience, command may contain multiple tokens. It is assumed that `{` and `}` are the only characters with category codes 1 (beginning of group) and 2 (end of group) respectively. Expandable. This package may be used in LaTeX by `\usepackage{tokmap}`, or in plain TeX and other formats by `\input{tokmap}`. See the visualtoks package for an example application (http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/generic/visualtoks/visualtoks-doc.pdf). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/tokmap The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/generic/tokmap/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
