CTAN update: context-notes-zh-cn

Yanrui Li submitted an update to the context-notes-zh-cn package. Version number: 2026-04-08 License type: fdl Summary description: A ConTeXt LMTX introduction for Chinese users Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The following is mainly a correction of several writing errors in the documentation, along with refinements to some previously hasty wording. The main content remains largely unchanged. The copyright of the documentation has been slightly modified, with some simple clauses added to meet the Debian community's rigorous licensing requirements for the TeXLive package. A new chapter, chapter 17 — a brief introductory guide to TEX programming — has been added. Originally, I planned to use it to demonstrate some applications of TEX programming in typesetting, but after some attempts, I decided to keep it as simple as possible, merely aiming to dispel fear of TEX programming. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/info/context-notes-zh-cn More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/context-notes-zh-cn ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Aaron Molt submitted the sneaker package. Version: 1.0 2026-04-03 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Configurable Sneakers with TikZ Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The 'sneaker' package provides a highly configurable TikZ pic to draw stylised sneakers in an isometric-like perspective. The shoe can be extensively customised via a simple key–value interface. Features include adjustable colours for various components, shoelaces with a bow, velcro straps, metal eyelets, and decorative patterns such as a lightning bolt or a star. For more detailed illustrations, the package also offers options for dashed stitching lines and even rolling wheels to transform the sneaker into an inline skate. What started as a small visual gimmick for the slides of my Bachelor’s thesis, a sneaker as a feature model to illustrate variability and configuration, gradually grew into something more elaborate that I decided to share with the community. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/sneaker The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/sneaker/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Abhishek Ranna submitted the smartnotes package. Version: 0.1 2026-04-05 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Visually anchored margin notes with connector lines and dynamic placement Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- smartnotes is a light LaTeX package for margin notes whose main idea is simple: place each note on the side of the page that gives the shortest and clearest connector line. Instead of always using a fixed margin, smartnotes chooses the left or right margin dynamically from the note position in the text, making annotations feel direct and visually tied to the exact place they refer to. The package also includes forced side placement, basic overlap avoidance, two box shapes, and a convenient global disable option for draft workflows. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/smartnotes The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/smartnotes/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
