CTAN update: expltools
by CTAN Announcements 11 Mar '26

11 Mar '26

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the expltools package. Version: 2026-03-10 License: lppl1.3c gpl2+ Summary description: Development tools for expl3 programmers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## expltools 2026-03-10 ### explcheck v0.18.1 #### Fixes This version of explcheck has fixed the following problems: - Merge consecutive blocks of function (variant) definitions and function undefinitions into macro-statements that form flow-graph vertices instead of individual statements. (suggested by @lostenderman in #156, fixed in #183) This change improves processing time by about 10% for an average package file in TeX Live 2024, and by up to 98% (or 53×) for large files such as `expl3-code.tex` when flow analysis is enabled despite incomplete code understanding. It also reduces the memory footprint of flow analysis by up to 3× for those files. After this change, the default value of the Lua option `max_reaching_definition_inner_loops` has been reduced from 30,000,000 to just 650,000 inner-loop iterations. - Fix the assignment of segment numbers to replacement texts. (#183) This would cause function definition statements to point to segments other than the replacement texts, confusing the flow analysis. This change reduces processing time by about 2% for an average package file in TeX Live 2024, and by up to 11% for large files such as `expl3-code.tex` when flow analysis is enabled despite incomplete code understanding. - Raise an error on ambiguous uses of `--long-option VALUE`, where `VALUE` is a valid command-line option. (contributed by @muzimuzhi in #185 and c48fa116) #### Docker image This version of explcheck has made the following changes to our Docker image `ghcr.io/witiko/expltools/explcheck`: - Replace Lua 5.3 with LuaJIT in `Dockerfile`. (#184) This change improves processing time by about 33% for an average package file in TeX Live 2024, and by up to 61% for large files such as `expl3-code.tex` when flow analysis is enabled despite incomplete code understanding. #### Continuous integration This version of explcheck has made the following changes to our continuous integration: - Run regression tests on different Lua interpreters: Lua 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, LuaTeX, and LuaJIT. (#184) - Bump `docker/login-action` from 3 to 4. (contributed by @dependabot in #186.) Overall, the changes in this release reduce the processing time for large files such as `expl3-code.tex` from months to hours (up to 65×) when flow analysis is enabled despite incomplete code understanding, and reduce the memory footprint of flow analysis by up to 3× for those files. While this is still insufficient for real-time use (e.g., in a language server; see ticket #68), it makes the tool practical for scenarios such as continuous integration. For a discussion of other potential performance improvements of the flow analysis, see ticket #156. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/expltools The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/expltools/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

In case memoization aborts, the tagging support now warns the user intervention may be required. In case no supported plug is found, it now marks the code as unmemoizable. Whether tagging is active is added to the salt. If the plug used for a tikzpicture depends on code outside that picture, the plug is added to the context. 0.3.1: Fixes a bug in 0.3 which prevented memoization of TikZ pictures in tagged PDF if a custom plug was installed in the latex-lab sockets. This version only marks code as unmemoizable if the installed plug is known to break tagging in conjunction with memoization (currently only the default `text` plug). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/memoize-ext More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/memoize-ext ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Vít Starý Novotný submitted an update to the expltools package. Version: 2026-03-04 License: lppl1.3c gpl2+ Summary description: Development tools for expl3 programmers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## expltools 2026-03-04 ### explcheck v0.18.0 #### Enhancements This version of explcheck has made the following new enhancements: - In human-readable output, mention that further issues may be reported after fixing the current errors after we have failed fast. (reported by @dbitouze and @muzimuzhi in #170 and #171, fixed in #175) - Add more support for flow analysis. (#176) This adds support for the following issues from Section 5.1 of the document titled [_Warnings and errors for the expl3 analysis tool_][warnings-and-errors]: 1. E505 (Calling an undefined function) Flow analysis is now enabled by default for all package files with at least 95% code understanding. - In issue W419 (Using an undeclared variable or constant), also report undeclared usages through `V`- and `v`-type arguments. (#176) - Support the plain TeX `\newtoks` command and the corresponding deprecated expl3 function `\toks_new:N`. (#176) - Support separate command-line options `--long-option value` in addition to `--long-option=value`. (contributed by @muzimuzhi in #178) - Deprecate the command-line options `--group-files={true|false|auto}` and `--make-at-letter={true|false|auto}`. Add the valueless options `--make-at-letter`, `--make-at-other`, `--group-files`, and `--no-group-files`. (#178) The expected usage is now as follows: - `--make-at-letter` instead of `--make-at-letter=true` - `--make-at-other` instead of `--make-at-letter=false` - `--group-files` instead of `--group-files=true` - `--no-group-files` instead of `--group-files=false` - no option instead of `--make-at-letter=auto` and `--group-files=auto` (default) The deprecated options are scheduled for removal in version 1.0.0. #### Code understanding This version of explcheck introduces the following changes to code understanding and to how it evaluates its own level of confidence: - Add support for `\cs_undefine:N`. (#176) - Treat simple constant and variable definitions, as well as message texts, as well-understood. (#176) - Consider `FUNCTION_CALL` statements high-confidence and well-understood only if there are no potential low-confidence definitions of the called control function. (#176) These changes have had a mixed effect on the [code coverage][]. Overall, it has remained mostly stable, but coverage on the current TeX Live 2025 snapshot (2026-02-19) now rounds to 19%, down from the previous 20%. [code coverage]: https://witiko.github.io/Expl3-Linter-11/#code-coverage #### Fixes This version of explcheck has fixed the following bugs: - Fix an integer overflow in function `format_pathname()`. (reported by @muzimuzhi in #163, fixed in 776eb72) - Fix a failure to load TOML files whose last line is a comment without a trailing newline. (reported by @Chipsterjulien in jonstoler/lua-toml#27 and by @muzimuzhi in #165, fixed in #166) - Record control sequence name usage and definitions in unanalyzed arguments. (reported by @dbitouze in #170 and #173, fixed in #174) - Do not produce warning S204 (Missing stylistic whitespaces) for repeated begin group (`{{`) or end group (`}}`). (discovered in witiko/markdown#623, fixed in #177) #### Documentation This version of explcheck has made the following improvements to the documentation: - Document that `% noqa` at the top of a file silences issues everywhere. (f1528f1) #### Continuous integration This version of explcheck has made the following changes to our continuous integration: - Run LuaLS even if Luacheck failed. (95f71a1) - Run one additional process to reduce the problem of idle CPUs near the end while one worker grinds a difficult task. (#174, 19ceb45) - Increase the time limit for running explcheck over the entire TeX Live from 3 to 5 minutes. (#176) - Migrate from `TeX-Live/setup-texlive-action@v3` to `zauguin/install-texlive@v4`. (drafted by @koppor in koppor#1 and independently suggested by @muzimuzhi and @gucci-on-fleek in #178, added in #181) - Bump `actions/upload-artifact` from 6 to 7. (contributed by @dependabot in #179) - Bump `actions/download-artifact` from 7 to 8. (contributed by @dependabot in #180) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/expltools The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/expltools/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
