The xellipsis package provides a system for configuring (almomst) every possible aspect of ellipses, including preceding and proceeding characters; the character itself; distances before and after each of these; and number of characters. It comes with both a compatibility option for standard LaTeX \ldots as well as preset package options for the Chicago Manual of Style (Turabian); the Bluebook; and MLA guidelines.

The tracklang package is provided for package developers who want a simple interface to find out which languages the user has requested through packages such as babel or polyglossia. This package does not provide any translations! Its purpose is simply to track which languages have been requested by the user. Generic TeX code is in tracklang.tex for non-LaTeX users.

This package provides the command \citeright for aliasing in-text citations and specifying their appearance in the list of references. It is specifically tailored for use with the natbib package and is compatible with citation managers such as BibDesk and JabRef. The package is intended to provide a means for respecting the diverse naming conventions of cited authors and, in this way, decolonizing academia.

extractbb is a program that exports the dimensions of an image or PDF file to a plain text format that is easily parsed by TeX. This tool is rarely run directly by users, but is frequently used by packages running on XeTeX or upTeX. This package specifically contains a Lua-based re-implementation extractbb that behaves identically to the original C-based version distributed with Dvipdfmx.

This package provides a development of TeX, which deals in multi-octet Unicode characters, to enable native treatment of a wide range of languages without changing character-set. Work on Omega has ceased (the TeX Live package contains only support files); its compatible successor is Aleph, which is itself also in major maintenance mode only. Ongoing projects developing Omega (and Aleph) ideas include Omega-2 and LuaTeX.

This package provides an \ifoddpage conditional to determine if the current page is odd or even. The macro \checkoddpage must be used directly before to check the page number using a label. Two compiler runs are therefore required to achieve correct results. In addition, the conditional \ifoddpageoronside is provided which is also true in oneside mode where all pages use the odd page layout.

The package is intended for setting rich text into titling capitals (in which the first character of words are capitalized). It automatically accounts for diacritical marks (like umlauts), national symbols (like ae), punctuation, and font changing commands that alter the appearance or size of the text. It allows a list of predesignated words to be protected as lower-cased, and also allows for titling exceptions of various sorts.

This package defines a few LaTeX commands that may be useful when you proofread a LaTeX document. They allow you to easily highlight text and add comments in the margin. Vim escape sequences are provided for inserting or removing these LaTeX commands in the source. Options are provided for displaying the document with extra line spacing, and for displaying it in either corrected or uncorrected state, both without margin notes.

The package provides the commands \blindtext and \Blindtext for creating "blind" text useful in testing new classes and packages, and \blinddocument, \Blinddocument for creating an entire random document with sections, lists, mathematics, etc. The package supports three languages, english, (n)german and latin; the latin option provides a short "lorem ipsum" (for a fuller "lorem ipsum" text, see the lipsum package).

This package aims to provide a single style file containing most configurations and macros necessary to write appealing publications in High Energy Physics. Instead of reinventing the wheel by introducing newly created macros, hep-paper preferably loads third party packages as long as they are light-weight enough. For usual publications it suffices to load the hep-paper package, without optional arguments, in addition to the article class.

This template is devoted to the quicker preparation of exams in LaTeX. Its main features are:

• minimalistic design;

• include the custom logo of the affiliation;

• predefined commands for a subject, study year, study program, exam type, place of exam, date;

• many macros contained in this package speed up the process of preparing the necessary ingredients for the exam;

• automatic calculation of total points.

The package provides a set of LaTeX macros (based on PSTricks) for plotting the kind of graphs and figures that are usually employed in digital signal processing publications. DSPTricks provides facilities for standard discrete-time lollipop plots, continuous-time and frequency plots, and pole-zero plots. The companion package DSPFunctions (dspfunctions.sty) provides macros for computing frequency responses and DFTs, while the package DSPBlocks (dspblocks.sty) supports DSP block diagrams.

The package extracts information in .bib files, makes it available in the current document, and sorts lists of entries according to that information and the user's specifications. Citation and bibliography styles can then be written directly in TeX, without any use of BibTeX. The package works with all formats that use plain TeX's basic syntactic sugar; the distribution includes a third-party file for ConTeXt and a style file for LaTeX.

This LaTeX package, called BibBreeze, written using LaTeX3, is a referencing package that automates bibliography reconstruction, eliminating manual effort in reference handling. It reorders disorganized fields for bibliography entries, fills in missing fields, and produces polished, referencing style-compliant bibliographies--optimized for researchers, academics, and writers. Currently, the package's referencing style is designed for APA (with both numeric and author-year in-text citations) with more styles (Harvard, Chicago, AMA, etc.) to come.

This package provides a number of macros for rendering flags of countries and their associated artefacts using PSTricks. Formatting of the resulting drawings is entirely controlled by TeX macros. A good working knowledge of LaTeX should be sufficient to design flags of sovereign countries and adapt them to create new designs. Features such as color or shape customisation and dynamic modifications are possible by cleverly adjusting the options supplied to the TeX macros.

The package combines a document's columns into a PDF ``article thread''. PDF readers that support this mechanism can be instructed to scroll automatically from column to column, which facilitates on-screen reading of two-column documents. Even for single-column documents, threadcol supports the creation of multiple article threads, which help organize discontiguous but logically related regions of text into a form that the user can scroll through as if its contents were contiguous.

The PSTricks macros cannot be used (directly) with pdfTeX, since PSTricks uses PostScript arithmetic, which isn't part of PDF. This package circumvents this limitation so that the extensive facilities offered by the powerful PSTricks package can be made use of in a pdfTeX document. This is done using the shell escape function available in current TeX implementations. The package may also be used in support of other PostScript-output-only packages, such as PSfrag.

This package provides a LaTeX environment listing, an alternative to the built-in verbatim environment. The listing environment is tailored for including listings of computer program source code into documents. The main advantages over the original verbatim environment are: environments automatically fixes leading whitespace so that the environment and program listing can be indented with the rest of the document source, and; listing environments may easily be customised and extended.

This package provides macros and an environment for easy worksheet creation:

• use the exercise environment for formatting exercises in a simple, efficient design;

• typeset customized and automatically numbered worksheet titles in the same way as standard LaTeX titles (using \maketitle);

• provide course and author information with a scrlayer-scrpage based automated header;

This package conforms to different Babel languages. (Currently English, French, and German are supported.)

This package provides simple tools for creating redacted contents. Its tools are useful for lawyers, workers in sensitive industries, and others who need to easily produce both unrestricted versions of documents (for limited, secure release) and restricted versions of documents (for general release). Redaction is done both by hiding all characters and by slightly varying the length of strings to prevent jigsaw identification. It also is friendly to screen readers by adding alt-text indicating redacted content.

Clear Sans was designed by Daniel Ratighan. It is available in three weights (regular, medium, and bold) with corresponding italics, plus light and thin upright (without italics).

It has minimized, unambiguous characters and slightly narrow proportions, making it ideal for UI design. Its strong, recognizable forms avoid distracting ambiguity, making Clear Sans comfortable for reading short UI labels and long passages in both screen and print. The fonts are available in both TrueType and Type 1 formats.

This package provides a LaTeX class for typesetting books with a colorful design. Currently, it has native support for Chinese (both simplified and traditional), English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), Russian and Spanish typesetting. It compiles with either XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. This is part of the colorist class series and depends on colorist.sty from the colorist package. The package name "beaulivre" is taken from the French words "beau" (= "beautiful") and "livre" (= "book").

hepthesis is a LaTeX class for typesetting large academic reports, in particular PhD theses. In particular, hepthesis offers:

• attractive semantic environments for various rubric sections;

• extensive options for draft production, screen viewing and binding-ready output;

• helpful extensions of existing environments, including equation and tabular;

• support for quotations at the start of the thesis and each chapter.

The class is based on scrbook, from the KOMA-Script bundle.

Latex2man is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with LaTeX into the troff format understood by the UNIX man(1) command. Alternatively HTML, TexInfo, or LaTeX code can be produced too. Output of parts of the text may be suppressed using the conditional text feature (for this, LaTeX generation may be used). There is a LaTeX package (latex2man.sty) for writing the man page and a Perl script, latex2man that does the actual translation.
