Nan Geng submitted the codemwe package. Version: 1.1.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Typeset code with a result box and generate MWE files Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ codemwe typesets example code and its compiled result in one box and, from the same source, writes a minimal independently compilable file for the example. It is written in expl3 on top of tcolorbox, fancyvrb and graphicx, and was developed while writing a package manual, where every example must appear as code, as result, and as a file the reader can compile. Features * example, example* and texcode environments for horizontal, vertical and code-only layout, plus a ccode environment preset for C code. Each example is numbered, labelled and cross-referenceable. * Automatic generation of an MWE .tex file per example, with the document class, the packages and optional extra preamble material placed in the preamble and the body delimited by comment lines. * Code backends: extension, comment character, compilability and minted language name are kept together, so that non-LaTeX code can be shown and saved. LaTeX and C are built in; \codemweNewBackend registers more. * Optional syntax highlighting through minted (“minted” and “mintedstyle” options). minted is detected and loaded when codemwe itself is loaded, so highlighting can be switched on and off anywhere in the body or per environment with no preamble preparation; when minted or -shell-escape is missing, the package falls back to fancyvrb with a single warning. * Six built-in box designs plus \codemweNewBox for user-defined tcolorbox designs; optional titles. * Language varieties for the transition phrases, the structural comment words and the reference prefix, “en” and “zh” built in, \codemweNewLang for further varieties. * Fine control over what is printed in the code box (withcls, withpkg, withextra, nobody, noshow) and over numbering, line numbers, spacing and result figure size. * All options usable as package options, environment options, or with \codemweset in the current scope. Requirements * LaTeX2e 2020-10-01 or later, expl3, tcolorbox (2020-10-09 or later), fancyvrb, graphicx. * For the minted option only: the minted package and a compilation with -shell-escape. The bilingual (Chinese/English) manual, codemwe.pdf, is included. It is typeset with codemwe itself and may serve as a gallery of the package's output. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/codemwe The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/codemwe/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

The bundle requires LuaLaTeX, a current TeX Live, and, if ltx-talk is used, ltx-talk 0.5.3 or later. It is under active development and its interfaces may still change. The bundle currently contains: - osglecture: document class that produces slides, script, handouts, and other materials from a common source - ollm (OSG LaTeX Lecture Maker): latexmk-based build manager for creating and deploying lecture materials - osglecture-modes: portable document modes in the style of beamer/ltx-talk for arbitrary classes - langselect: several language versions of a document from a common source - tagpax: semantic import of tagged PDFs - osgstyler: template-based formatting - ltxtalk-theme: theme engine for ltx-talk, with a few themes modelled after Beamer themes - ltxtalk-theme-tuc-2019: unofficial version of the TU Chemnitz presentation theme for ltx-talk - ansiterm: ANSI-aware, optionally executable terminal windows - osglistings: minted-based code-listing front end - semcat: semantic-category markup - tagdirtree: taggable directory trees - tagbridge: transitional patches for a few third-party packages that lack native tagging (PDF/UA) support - osgdoc: small wrapper for cnltx with further support for documentation -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/osglecture More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/osglecture -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Super Lede submitted the atsresume package. Version: 1.0.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A one-column resume class with PDF text that applicant tracking systems can Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- atsresume is a new LaTeX class for a one-page resume whose PDF text applicant tracking systems can read. The layout is one column, with the name centered at the top, section headings in capitals over a rule, and places and dates on the right margin. Places and dates are set with glue rather than tables or columns, so each line is stored left to right; ligatures and hyphenation are off, and bullets are the U+2022 character. The example compiles to the same text with pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX, on US Letter and A4. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/atsresume More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/atsresume -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: runtexshebang
by CTAN Announcements 22 Oct '26

22 Oct '26

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted an update to the runtexshebang package. Version: 1.1 2026-10-21 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A Lua script running LaTeX document files with TeX-style shebang Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- runtexshebang v1.1 refuses a TeX-style shebang (%#!) line that contains an ASCII control character other than TAB, both when running it and with --dry-run. A carriage return or an escape sequence in that line could make the command shown on the terminal differ from the command the shell actually runs. Non-ASCII bytes are not checked, so UTF-8, Shift_JIS and EUC-JP file names keep working. The test suite now also checks that runtexshebang never loads Lua modules placed in the current directory. runtexshebang 1.0 runs the `%#!` line of a LaTeX document through the system shell, as before, but is now more careful about it. ## Changes - The license is now the LaTeX Project Public License 1.3c (was MIT). - The command of the `%#!` line is printed on stderr before it is run, and its exit status is passed through, so editors and `make` can detect failures. - CRLF line endings and a UTF-8 byte order mark before `%#!` are handled; only the leading `%#!` is removed from the line. - Missing files, an empty `%#!` line and unknown options are reported with a message and a non-zero exit status instead of a Lua traceback. `--` ends option parsing. - On Windows, `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath=1` is set before the command runs, so an executable placed next to the document cannot shadow a TeX Live program named on the `%#!` line. - The README has a new Security section. In short: running runtexshebang on a document is equivalent to typing its `%#!` line yourself, so use it only on documents you trust, and never add it to `shell_escape_commands`. - PDF documentation is included. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/runtexshebang More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/runtexshebang -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted the footnotenosplit package. Version: 1.0 2026-10-20 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Suppress orphan footnote rules when footnotes are not allowed to split Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # footnotenosplit v1.0 Initial release. Setting `\interfootnotelinepenalty=10000` keeps footnote text from being split across pages: a footnote that does not fit is moved to the next page as a whole. This policy, common in book production, can leave a lone `\footnoterule` — with no footnote text below it — at the bottom of the original page, and the moved footnote sits too close to the rule on the next page. footnotenosplit suppresses both side effects. Supported formats/engines: pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX, XeLaTeX (LaTeX2e 2025-06-01 or later), pLaTeX and upLaTeX. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/footnotenosplit More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/footnotenosplit -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

21 Oct '26

Alain Matthes submitted an update to the tkz-graph package. Version: 2.20c 2026-10-20 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Draw graph-theory graphs Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## [2.20c] — 2026/10/20 ### Changed - Keys use `pgfkeys` instead of `xkeyval`: same names, same default values, same results. The behaviour of `\presetkeys` is kept (preset values apply only to the keys not given; `\SetVertexMath`, `\SetUpEdge`, `\GraphInit`... still change them). - `xkeyval` is no longer loaded: a document that used it without loading it must now load it. - `vstyle` and the `dir` key of `\grLoop` accept a macro as value. - The short names (`\Vertex`, `\Vertices`, `\Edge`, `\Edges`, `\Loop`, `\EA`, `\WE`, `\NO`, `\SO`, `\NOEA`, `\NOWE`, `\SOEA`, `\SOWE`) are installed at the beginning of each `tikzpicture`. A definition of `\EA`, `\NO`... made elsewhere (by the user or another package) keeps its meaning outside the pictures. If such a name is already defined when tkz-graph is loaded, a warning gives the prefixed name. - The code calls only internal commands (`\tkzgr@...`); tkz-berge does the same. - Each `vstyle` is a pgfkeys key (`/tkzgraph/vstyle/<name>`). - Internal macros protected; `\ifthenelse` no longer used internally (`ifthen` is still loaded); `etex` removed; `\fileversion` and `\filedate` are no longer redefined. ### Fixed - `\AddVertexColor` and `\Vertices` no longer depend on global helper macros (`\deb`, `\fin`, `\v`, `\liste`...). - A second `\GraphInit[vstyle=...]` in the same group was ignored and wrote its value in the text (the internal macro `\GR@init@vstyle` overwrote the key itself). ### Added - Prefixed names, always available: `\tkzVertex`, `\tkzVertices`, `\tkzEdge`, `\tkzEdges`, `\tkzLoop`, `\tkzEA`, `\tkzWE`, `\tkzNO`, `\tkzSO`, `\tkzNOEA`, `\tkzNOWE`, `\tkzSOEA`, `\tkzSOWE`. - Package option `noshortnames`: the short names are never defined. - `\tkzDefGraphStyle{<name>}{<code>}` defines a new style for `\GraphInit[vstyle=<name>]` (name case insensitive). - `\tkzSetUpGraph[...]`: local settings of the vertices, edges and labels (`vertex shape`, `vertex line width`, `vertex line color`, `vertex text color`, `vertex fill`, `light fill`, `dark fill`, `ball color`, `inner sep`, `outer sep`, `small size`, `medium size`, `big size`, `edge color`, `edge width`, `edge fill`, `art color`, `double distance`, `label text`, `label fill`, `unit`), `directed` (an arrow on every edge) and `arrow tip`. It replaces the `\renewcommand` of `\VertexShape`, `\EdgeLineWidth`... - Keys `->`, `<-`, `<->`, `-` and `arrow` for `\Edge` and `\Edges`. - Keys `rotation` (angle of the first vertex) and `clockwise` for `\Vertices{circle}`. - `\tkzHighlightPath[options]{A,B,C}` (path, option `cycle`) and `\tkzHighlightPath{A/B,C/D}` (edges): edges drawn again over the graph (`color`, `lw`, `style`). - `\tkzAdjacencyMatrix[options]`: adjacency matrix of the graph of the last picture (options `directed`, `order`). - `\tkzGraphFromMatrix[options]{A,B,C}{0,1,1;1,0,1;1,1,0}`: graph (vertices on a circle, or `placed`) from a matrix; options `directed`, `weighted`, `unit`, `rotation`, `clockwise`, `style`, `loop distance`, `bend`. - `\grProbMatrix{A,B,C}{matrix}`: probabilistic graph with any number of states, from the transition matrix. ### Compatibility - Same rendering for the existing documents. `arrows.meta` is not loaded (it changes slightly the default tip); load it to use `arrow tip=Stealth`. - tkz-berge must be 2.20c or later (older versions need `xkeyval`). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tkz/tkz-graph More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/tkz-graph -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Alain Matthes submitted an update to the tkzexample package. Version: 1.51c 2026-10-20 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Package for the documentation of all tkz-* packages Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## [1.51] — 2026/10/20 ### Added - New key `break code` (`auto`, `fill`, `always`, `never`): a long code can be split across pages. The line numbers (`num`), the background (`code`) and the frame (`frame code`) continue on the following pages. `break code=never` gives the behaviour of 1.45c (unbreakable box). ### Fixed - The key `above skip` works (it had no effect). - The options may contain `\par` (e.g. `above skip=\par\vspace{1cm}`). ## [1.50] — 2026/10/05 ### Changed - The brackets `[]` after `\begin{tkzexample}` are optional. - `xcolor` and `pgfkeys` are loaded: `tkzexample` can be used without `tikz`. ### Fixed - `overhang=false` works again (duplicate key removed). - The keys `inner right margin` and `inner bottom margin` are used. - `tkzltxexample`: the key `hsep` no longer overwrites the dimen `\tkz@hsep`. - Keys `latex` and `vbox`: an end of line in the code is a space again and an empty line starts a new paragraph (the words of two lines were glued together). - Option `saved`: - with `code only`, the code is printed and not the name of the file; - no more overflow of 6pt when the code is placed under the result; - several examples in the same subsubsection no longer overwrite each other (`tkzFile-1-2-0.tex`, `tkzFile-1-2-0-2.tex`, ...); - `\tkzSavedCode` works without brackets. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tkz/tkzexample More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/tkzexample -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: tkz-fn

Alain Matthes submitted the tkz-fn package. Version: 1.00c 2026-10-19 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Draw graphs of functions in 2D, using TikZ and LuaLaTeX Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- tkz-fn draws graphs of functions with TikZ; all computations are done by Lua, so the package requires LuaLaTeX. It is the successor of tkz-fct: gnuplot, fp.sty, tkz-base and --shell-escape are no longer needed. All macros begin with \tkzFn, so tkz-fn and tkz-fct can be loaded together. Features: - curves y = f(x), parametric and polar curves, interrupted at vertical asymptotes and where the function is not defined; - tangent lines (with one-sided tangents), areas under or between curves, Riemann sums (left, right, mid, inf, sup); - points on curves, coordinates, labels, vertical and horizontal lines, data plots; - values, derivatives, integrals and Riemann sums computed by Lua and printed in the text; - numbers in American (3.14, (a, b)) or French (3,14, ]a ; b[) format; - axes as in school textbooks, with arrows at one or both ends, or "box" axes as with pgfplots, selected by an option; - optional bridge to tkz-elements: points defined by tkz-fn are exported to the table z. The documentation is available in American English (tkz-fn-en.pdf) and in French (tkz-fn.pdf). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tkz/tkz-fn More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/tkz-fn -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
