This package provides a TeX format designed to help students write short reports and essays. It provides the user with a suitable set of commands for such a task. It is also more robust than plain TeX and LaTeX.

The package contains the OpenType medieval cursive font Aboensis and a style file to use it in XeLaTeX documents. The font is based on Codex Aboensis, that is a law book written in Sweden in the 1430s. Since medieval cursive is very difficult to read for modern people, the font is not suitable for use as an ordinary book font, but is intended for emulating late medieval manuscripts.

The font contains two sets of initials: lombardic and cursive to go with the basic alphabet, and there is support for writing two-colored initials and capitals. There are also a large number of abbreviation sigla that can be accessed as ligature substitutions. The style file contains macros that help to use the extended features of the font such as initials and two-colored capitals. There are also macros to help achieve even pages with consistent line spacing.

This package helps in creating exercises and the corresponding solutions. It is the official successor of the exsheets package and fixes/improves various long-standing issues.

This LaTeX package can help French maths teachers to put the same exercise into different sorts of documents.

The Pigpen cipher package provides the font and the necessary wrappers (style file, etc.) in order to write Pigpen ciphers, a simple substitution cipher. The package provides a font (available both as Metafont source, and as an Adobe Type 1 file), and macros for its use.

The package overlays a grid (whose spacing is \baselineskip, which offers guidelines for considering the ``rhythm'' of the document on the page.

This bundled is aimed at producing undergraduate students final work or report at UFRGS/EE (Engineering School at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul), closely following ABNT rules (Brazilian Association for Technical Norms). It is composed of a main class, ufrgscca, and a set of auxiliary packages, some of which can be used independently.

This package provides additional BibLaTeX styles for German humanities. Its core purpose is to enable the referencing rules of the Romano-Germanic Commission (Romisch-Germanische Kommission), the department of prehistory of the German Archaeological Institute (Deutsches Archaologisches Institut), since these are referenced by most guidelines in German prehistory and medieval archaeology and serve as a kind of template. biblatex-archaeology provides verbose, numeric and author date styles as well and adaptions to specific document types like exhibition and auction catalogues.

The \boolexpr macro evaluates boolean expressions in a purely expandable way. \boolexpr{ A \OR B \AND C } expands to 0 if the logical expression is TRUE. A, B, C may be:

• numeric expressions such as: x=y, x<>y, x>y or x<y;

• boolean switches: \iftrue 0\else 1\fi;

• conditionals: \ifcsname whatsit\endcsname 0\else 1\fi;

• another \boolexpr: \boolexpr{ D \OR E \AND F }.

\boolexpr may be used with \ifcase.

The \switch command (which is also expandable) has the form: \switch \case{<boolean expression>} ... \case{<boolean expression>} ... ... \otherwise ... \endswitch.

This package provides Polish macros and fonts supporting Pagella/pxfonts and Termes/txfonts

The package provides packages and classes for typesetting applications with titlepage, cover letter, CV and additional documents in just a single document. There is also a class for printing a table of the latest applications that can be shown to the German authorities. The data for these applications can be maintained in a simple CSV file.

This small package allows citing all entries of a BibLaTeX (.bbl) file.

This package is a small LaTeX package that adds a collection of simple macros for parentheses and bullets. It exists for one purpose only, to be loaded by documents which were originally typeset using the package SemanTeX, but which have been stripped of SemanTeX markup using the package stripsemantex which is part of SemanTeX. Therefore, unless your document is one of those, simply don't use this package. And even if your document is one of those, there is a good chance you will not have to load it after all. In most cases, you will be able to replace the macros it provides by macros from other packages.

These files record details of problems reported in Knuth's Computers and Typesetting series of books, for the Computer Modern fonts, and for TeX, Metafont and related programs.

This package provides a collection of BibTeX bibliographies on TeX-related topics (including, for example, spell-checking and SGML). Each includes a LaTeX wrapper file to typeset the bibliography.

This package allows compiling a document differently depending on the portion of the document's file name (internally, the \jobname) that comes after the first - character. This allows one to have one source file and multiple links to this source file that each compile differently.

DVItoMP is one of the auxiliary programs available to any MetaPost package; it converts a DVI file into a MetaPost file. Using it, one can envisage including a DVI page into an EPS files generated by MetaPost. Such files allow pages to include other pages.

This package provides an old introduction to the use of Metafont, that has stood the test of time. It focuses on using the program, rather than designing fonts, but does offer advice about understanding errors in other people's fonts.

The package provides a paragraph generator designed for use in Plain TeX documents. The paragraphs generated contain many f-groups (ff, fl etc.) so the text can act as a test of the ligatures of the font in use.

This package provides a small LaTeX package to draw bricks with TikZ. The user can modify color, shape, and viewpoint.

This package offers commands to print chessboards. It can print partial boards, hide pieces and fields, color the boards and put various marks on the board. It has a lot of options to place pieces on the board. Using exotic pieces (e.g., for fairy chess) is possible.

These are metrics to use existing Chinese TrueType fonts in workflows that use LaTeX and dvipdfmx, or pdfLaTeX. The fonts themselves are not included in the package. Six font families are supported: Kai, Song, Lishu, Fangsong, Youyuan and Hei. Two encodings (GBK and UTF-8) are supported.

The package defines commands that create macros for typesetting vectors, matrices and functions, in a logical way. For example, logical indexing can then be used to refer to elements or arguments without hard-coding the symbols in the document.

This package makes it possible to define colors automatically by their names. This can be useful in drawing TikZ pictures and designing Beamer themes. Using the package, you don't need to write \definecolor before using a color.
