CTAN update: bytefield
by CTAN Announcements 25 Oct '20

25 Oct '20

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the bytefield package. Version number: 2.5 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Create illustrations for network protocol specifications Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The bytefield package helps the user create illustrations for network protocol specifications and anything else that utilizes fields of data. These illustrations show how the bits and bytes are laid out in a packet, register, or memory. Version 2.5 adds a three handy new features. First, the itbox, itboxes, and wordbox commands now accept the same optional parameters as various other package commands. Second, a new bgcolor parameter specifies a box's background color. Third, a new perword parameter enables demarcating or decorating individual words within a multi-word wordbox. Thanks to Victor Toni for the idea that led to the perword parameter and for his help testing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/bytefield More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/bytefield ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: tikz-among-us
by CTAN Announcements 25 Oct '20

Fernando H. G. Zucatelli (FHZ) submitted the tikz-among-us package. Version: 1.0.1 2020-10-23 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Create some AmongUs characters in TikZ environments Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Version: 1.0: Hi. Call me FHZ. I'm an enthusiastic LaTeX user who recently learned how to create more flexible drawings in TikZ. After playing the game Among us with some friends, some ideas about how we could use them in text came to me. I decided to apply what I've learned and I created a simple package to draw the basic Among us character. The package is not perfect and has a lot of place to improvements, but it is quite cute and explores some possible uses. The whole process of creating and publishing has been a journey of discoveries. I do hope this package brings as much fun and new ideas to people as it did to me while creating it. Version: 1.0.1 2020-10-23: All instances of tikz-amongUs have been revised to tikz-among-us, including 3 .sty files, the .cwl file, README.md, and every instance at the documentation pdf. Therefore everything fits together with only one syntax. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/tikz-among-us The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/tikz-among-us/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Pierre-Amiel Giraud submitted the skills package. Version: 1.0.0 2020-10-21 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Create proficiency tests Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Skills is a new LaTeX package that attempts to make it easy for even a LaTeX novice to prepare proficiency tests, especially in combination with the exam document class. Thus, almost all command names are very similar. After defining skills in the preamble or in an external file, they are declared using labels, and can optionally be set as global skills. A skills table is generated to summarize the evaluated competencies and to allow for writing down the resulting proficiency level. The user's guide skillsdoc.tex attempts to explain all of the possibilities in a readable way, with many examples. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/skills The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/skills/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
