David Kempe submitted an update to the
color-edits
package.
Version: 2.0 2026-07-05
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Colorful edits for multiple authors of a shared document
Announcement text:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
color-edits is a macro package to facilitate joint editing of a
document (e.g., research paper) by multiple authors, annotating
changes, comments, deletions, etc. with author-specific colors.
Version 2.0 adds the following functionality:
- "Undoing" edits (i.e., not having them visible in compiled output),
either globally or for specific authors.
- New added macros for deletions that avoid comments in the margins.
- A package option that makes the previous deletion macros also
not show comments in the margins.
Bug fixes include:
- fixing minor spacing issues with the suppress option/name.
- fixing formatting issues when combining colorful macros with
wrapfig and similar environments.
- color spill issues when footnotes extended across multiple pages.
