The drm package provides access to the DRM (Don's Revised Modern)
family of fonts, which includes a variety of optical sizes in Roman (in
four weights), italic, and small caps, among other shapes, along with a
set of symbols and ornaments. It is intended to be a full-body text
font, but its larger sizes can also be used for simple display
purposes, and its significant body of symbols can stand on its own. It
comes complete with textual (``old-style'') and lining figures, and
even has small-caps figures. It also comes with extensible decorative
rules to be used with ornaments from itself or other fonts, along with
an extremely flexible ellipsis package. A set of decorative initials
is planned.

graphbox is an extension for the LaTeX 2e package graphicx to

formulae.
Options for shifting, smashing and hiding the graphics are

Summary description: Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed extends TeX-Gyre Latin
Modern Mono 10 Regular to full Arabic Unicode
support
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. For more details, see README.txt. For more extensive documentation,
examples, and background; see almfixed-dtk.pdf.
2. Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed is an extension of TeX-Gyre Latin Modern
Mono 10 Regular. Every glyph and opentype feature of the Latin Modern
Mono has been retained, with minor improvements. On the other hand, we
have changed the vertical metrics of the font. Although the Arabic
script is designed to use the same x-size as Latin Modern Mono, the
former script needs greater ascender and descender space.
3. Every Arabic glyph in each Unicode-code block is supported (up to
Unicode 7.0): Arabic, Arabic Supplement, Arabic Extended, Arabic
Presentation-Forms A, and Arabic Presentation-Forms B.
4. There are two versions of the font: otf and ttf. The opentype
version is for print applications (and usually the default for TeX).
The TrueType version is for on-screen applications such as text
editors. Hinting in the ttf version is much better for on-screen, at
least on Microsoft Windows.
5. The most unique feature of Arabic-Latin Modern is in its treatment
of vowels and diacritics. Each vowel and diacritic (ALM Fixed contains
a total of 68 such glyphs) can now be edited horizontally within any
text editor or processor. I believe this is the very first opentype
Arabic font ever to have this capability. Editing complex Arabic texts
will now be much easier to input and to proofread.

bundledoc
package.
Version number: 3.2
License type: lppl
Summary description: Bundle together all the files needed to build a
LaTeX document.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
bundledoc is a post-processor for the snapshot package that bundles
together all the classes, packages, and files needed to build a given
LaTeX document. It reads the .dep file that snapshot produces, finds
each of the files mentioned therein, and archives them into a
single .tar.gz (or .zip, or whatever) file, suitable for moving across
systems, transmitting to a colleague, etc.
As an added bonus, this distribution includes a small script called
arlatex. arlatex is a LaTeX-specific archiving program that combines a
bunch of files into a single .tex file. When the .tex file is run
through latex, all of the original files are recreated and the LaTeX
document is built. bundledoc can be easily configured to use arlatex
as its archiver in place of tar, zip, etc.
Version 3.2 includes a new texlive-unix-arlatex.cfg script that
facilitates using arlatex with bundledoc. arlatex-generated .tex files
now use the filecontents package if available. bundledoc has been
modified to work slightly better when given filenames containing spaces
(although I'm sure that bugs in filename processing still remain).

getmap
package.
Version number: v1.6
License type: lppl
Summary description: Download OpenStreetMap, Google Maps or
Google Street View maps
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The goal of this package is the simplest possible provision of
map images (OpenStreetMap, Google Maps and Google Street View

address is sufficient. The package loads the map using the
write18 feature, which you must activate to use this package.
The image will be downloaded by an external Lua script. You can
use this script also from the command line.
License: LPPL
Changes in v1.6:
- added gpx2epl, gps2epl and gpx2gps modes to getmapdl.lua
parses gpx and gps files and outputs gps or epl (encoded
polylines) to STDOUT, e.g:
getmapdl -m gpx2epl -G myroute.gpx >myroute.epl
- removed gpx2gps bash file
- updated documentation

assoccnt
package.
Version number: 0.2
License type: lppl
Summary description: Advancing many counters simultaneously
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Announcement of original upload (v. 0.1):
This package provides some commands to handle associated
counters that will be stepped if a driver counter (say page
or chapter) is increased by stepcounter. The driven counters
can be given as a CSV list to the `DeclareAssociatedCounters´
command and will be increased, even if the driver counter is
reset in the meantime.
RemoveAssociatedCounters will remove the specified counters
from the update list.
See the comments in the style file and the
assoccnt_example.tex/assoccnt_example.pdf for usage and
further explanation.
This package can be used in conjunction with `totcount` to
provide real total values of a counter, as long as no direct
manipulation to an associated counter is done via
`setcounter` or `addtocounter`.
Announcement of v. 0.2:
A better error handling has been introduced
Multiple specification of an associated counter is prevented
The macro IfIsAssociatedCounter is introduced
Documentation added in assoccnt.pdf
