CTAN Update: chemmacros
by CTAN Announcements 08 Jul '13

08 Jul '13

Clemens Niederberger submitted an update to the chemmacros package. Version number: 4.0 License type: lppl Summary description: macros and commands for chemists Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- changes with v4.0: - the packages `chemformula' and `ghsystem' do not load `chemmacros' any more which means they can be used independently. - the option `bpchem' has been dropped. - the commands mch and pch now match `chemformula's charges. - the option `method' has been dropped. - the option `append' has deprecated. - the option `greek' has been extended to support other uppercase greek letters, for example those provided by `kpfonts'. This is handled internally by the new package in the family: `chemgreek'. This package is not really a package for usage at a user-level but could in principle be used to extend the `greek' option. - language support is now done with the help of the `translations' package from the `exsheets' bundle. This means that with v4.0 the document language is recognized automatically. - the status of the commands Lfi and Dfi has been changed from /deprecated/ to /dropped/. - various other changes like bug fixes and improvements on the typographical appearance of `chemformula's inline formulae with ch{}. - every package in the bundle got its own documentation file but the German and Italian version of the manuals are no longer provided ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/chemmacros/ .
