New on CTAN: algorithmlite
by CTAN Announcements 27 Oct '26

27 Oct '26

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted the algorithmlite package. Version: 1.0 2026-10-26 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A lightweight algorithm float without the float package Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- algorithmlite defines the environments algorithm and algorithm* in the same way as the standard classes define figure and table, with the float mechanism of the LaTeX kernel, without loading the float package (which redefines \caption for every float of the document). It gives the counter (reset at every chapter if there are chapters), \algorithmname, \listofalgorithms, a float type that does not clash with those of float, floatrow, newfloat and memoir, and a minimal [H] when the float package is not loaded. The content of an algorithm is set with algorithmic, algpseudocode or any other package. Japanese names are used with pTeX/upTeX and LuaTeX-ja. It works with pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, LuaLaTeX, pLaTeX and upLaTeX (+ dvipdfmx). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/algorithmlite More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/algorithmlite -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: subcaptionlite
by CTAN Announcements 27 Oct '26

27 Oct '26

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted the subcaptionlite package. Version: 1.0 2026-10-26 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Subfigures and subtables without the caption package Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- subcaptionlite provides the subfigure and subtable environments, \subcaption, \subcaptionbox and \subref with the same syntax as the subcaption package, but without the caption package. It does not touch \@makecaption of the class, so it can be used with classes that have their own design of captions. Subfigures and subtables are numbered (a), (b), ... within each float, and the number of the float is right whether its caption comes before or after the subcaptions. hyperref and cleveref are supported. It works with pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, LuaLaTeX (with or without LuaTeX-ja), pLaTeX and upLaTeX; with Japanese classes the space after the label is half of the full-width character. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/subcaptionlite More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/subcaptionlite -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Antoine Missier submitted the textdate package. Version: 1.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Displaying dates in textual form Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The `textdate` package provides a simple `\textdate` command to display numerical dates in textual form. It supports seven languages and accepts ISO-style dates, as well as day-first dates for languages using that convention. A date can be supplied directly or stored in a macro, making the package particularly useful for automatically displaying release dates in package documentation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/textdate More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/textdate -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: abnTeX2-ufv
by CTAN Announcements 27 Oct '26

27 Oct '26

Rodrigo Smarzaro submitted an update to the abnTeX2-ufv package. Version: 1.7 2026-10-26 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Undergraduate thesis class for UFV (Brazil), based on abnTeX2 Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- abntex2-ufv 1.7: LaTeX class for undergraduate theses at UFV (Brazil) Version 1.7 of abntex2-ufv, a class built on abnTeX2 for the final theses (TCC) of the Information Systems program at the Federal University of Viçosa (UFV), Rio Paranaíba campus, following the UFV normalization manual (2026-2 edition; ABNT NBR 14724/2025, 6023/2025 and 10520/2023). Changes in this release: * Minimal class: it now loads only what it needs itself (fontenc, indentfirst, acro, silence, etoolbox). graphicx, csquotes, microtype, booktabs, tabularx, multirow, biblatex and xurl moved to the document preamble, as in the template, so that editors such as TeXstudio and LaTeX Workshop recognize their commands. Breaking for documents written for 1.5/1.6 (see CHANGES.md and the guide). * Class options use the kernel \DeclareKeys (LaTeX 2022-06 or newer); the option nobiblatex is obsolete and ignored with a warning. * New defaults, which the document can override: link colors, PDF metadata taken from \titulo, \autor and the preamble note, \frenchspacing, \urlstyle{same}. * Fixed: the ilustracao environment with an optional width, e.g. \begin{ilustracao}[\linewidth], typesets its content in a minipage of that width, so listings no longer overflow the margin and breaklines works. * Fixed: the listings patch for an indented \end{lstlisting} is now applied. * Fixed: removed spurious warnings from hyperref (\uppercase in appendix bookmarks) and from memoir (deprecated \settocpreprocessor). * Documentation and template: monospaced font FiraMono with lining figures (works with pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX), listings guide, migration notes; new regression tests. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/abntex2-ufv More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/abntex2-ufv -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
