problems with tex.ac.uk ctan node
by CTAN Announcements 22 Nov '13

22 Nov '13

the machine failed at 06xx gmt this morning (2012-11-22), and we finally put it back in service just before 1500 gmt. the principal problem proved to be a failed disc in the archive raid set; the hardware conspired to prevent us realising this at first (i'm not sure how it managed to do this). the machine (which is the property of the uk tex users group) is now running with a disc from the (host) university department's stores. (it will probably not be missed, since we seldom install discs as small as that, nowadays.) i apologise for the inconvenience; i have an action to specify a cloud machine to take over when i retire, and have not got around to working on that ... for months, now.

CTAN Update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 05 Nov '13

05 Nov '13

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.09f License type: lppl Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- New features: * xintZapSpaces /completely expandably/ removes both leading and ending space tokens (char code 32) from its input. The input is not altered in any other way. The variant xintZapSpacesB additionally transforms <spaces>{braced}<spaces in braced (now unbraced...). xintZapFirstSpaces and xintZapLastSpaces do what their name indicate. The input may contain unmatched if, fi tokens etc... but top level space tokens are assumed to be of character code 32, as this works with delimited macros. * the completely expandable xintCSVtoList now strips out all spaces around commas or at the start and end of the list of the comma separated items (using xintZapSpacesB). * the non completely expandable xintFor et al. all similarly now removes all spaces around commas. * xintFor et al. are extended to accept all macro parameters from #1 to #9 (in arbitrary order); this will prove very useful for those who need to typeset a tabular on 9-dimensional paper. I plan on issuing at some point a spin-off package with the macros above (all those described in the documentation section on the Utilities provided by xint.sty). Perhaps xintZapSpaces could be made into a little package of its own; or the package should contain only what is necessary for xintFor and its variants. Feedback will be welcome on whether this is worthwile and if the thing should, as the xint bundle packages, be made available to all macro formats or only as a LaTeX package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package.

Also available: - xintintegers where each #1 will be a umexpr <explicit number> elax - xintdimensions where each #1 will be a dimexpr <explicit dimension> elax. In the latter case the dimensions are internally kept in sp units, there is no loss of accuracy due to conversion in pt's by he. * one breaks out of the infinite loop with xintBreakFor and xintBreakForAndDo (preferably put inside the true or false branch of a conditional as provided by the package itself or the etoolbox package or the ifthen package; there is no question of complete expandability here, so ifthen is allowed). * also new: xintifForFirst, xintifForLast which are expandable conditionals to use in the replacement text of the xintFor and xintFor* loops. Can be nested as expected. * new expandable conditionals xintifCmp and xintifInt The documentation contains a completely expandable implementation of the Quick Sort algorithm, and a graphical illustration of its functioning. It also has a completely expandable prime test and dynamically constructed prime tables and other examples of use of the completely expandable xintApplyUnbraced or non completely expandable xintApplyInline and xintFor, xintFor*. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
