This is a book publishing scheme, containing core (Lua)LaTeX and selected additional packages likely to be useful for non-technical book publication. It does not contain additional fonts (different books need different fonts, and the packages are large), nor does it contain additional mathematical or other technical packages.
This package provides a macro \anneescolaire
to automatically write the academic year in the French way, according to the date of compilation, two other macros to obtain the first and the second calendar year of the academic year, a macro to be redefined to change the presentation of the years.
This package facilitates tables with titles (captions) and notes. The title and notes are given a width equal to the body of the table (a tabular
environment). By itself, a threeparttable
does not float, but you can put it in a table
or a table*
or some other environment.
This package provides a new environment and associated commands to typeset BNF grammars. It allows easily writing formal grammars. Its original motivation was to typeset grammars for beamer presentations, therefore, there are macros to emphasize or downplay some parts of the grammar (which is the main novelty compared to other BNF packages).
The package is an extension of the standard graphics
bundle and provides a way to include repeated PostScript graphics (PS, EPS) only once in a PostScript document. This leads to smaller PostScript documents when having, for instance, a logo on every page. The package only works when post-processed with Dvips.
Preloading hyphenation patterns (or hyphen rules) into any format based upon LuaTeX is not required in LuaTeX and recent releases of Babel don't do it anyway. This package is addressed to those who just want to select the languages and load their patterns by means of language.dat
without loading babel
.
This package provides an environment to easily draw diagrams to represent communication protocols using message passing among processes. Processes are represented as horizontal or vertical lines, and communications as arrows between lines. The package also provides multiple macros to decorate those diagrams, for instance to annotate the diagram, to add crashes to the processes, checkpoints, ...
This package defines functions for rendering temporal operators defined in Linear Temporal Logic (LTL), Metric Temporal Logic (MTL), Metric First-order Temporal Logic (MFOTL), and the Counting Metric First-order Temporal Binding Logic (CMFTBL). The package defines various functions with variants in order to include or omit optional parameters of the operators like the optional interval.
The chemformula
package and babel-russian
settings both define macros named \ch
. This package un-defines Babel's macro to prevent an error when both packages are loaded together. Optionally, it redefines the \cosh
macro to print the hyperbolic cosine in Russian notation or defines a new macro \Ch
for that purpose.
This package generates the letterhead of the UWA. It requires the UWA logo in PDF format, which is available in SVG format at https://static-listing.weboffice.uwa.edu.au/visualid/core-rebrand/img/uwacrest/, and uses the Arial and UWA Slab fonts by default. The package works with XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
This is a guide for the installation of (La)TeX with the Amiga port of Web2C named AmiWeb2C in the version 2.1 on an emulated Amiga 4000 computer running Workbench 3.1. Furthermore the installation of an ARexx server for calling LaTeX from an editor is described and some tips for the installation of new fonts are given.
The Neo-Hellenic style evolved in academic circles in the 19th and 20th century; the present font follows a cut commissioned from Monotype in 1927. The font supports both Greek and Latin characters, and has been adjusted to work well with the cmbright
fonts for mathematics support. LaTeX support of the fonts is provided, offering OT1, T1 and LGR encodings.
The package allows Bible references to be formatted in a consistent way. It is similar to the bibleref
package, except that the formatting macros are all purely expandable --- that is, they are all implemented in TeX's mouth. This means that they can be used in any expandable context, such as an argument to a \url
command.
The package provides the language definition file for support of Kurmanji in Babel. Kurmanji belongs to the family of Kurdish languages. Some shortcuts are defined, as well as translations to Kurmanji of standard LaTeX names. Note that the package is dealing with Northern Kurdish, written using a Latin-based alphabet. The arabxetex
package offers support for Kurdish written in Arabic script.
This package provides a means to add a textual, light grey watermark on every page or on the first page of a document. Typical usage may consist in writing words such as DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL across document pages. The package performs a similar function to that of draftcopy
, but its implementation is output device independent, and made very simple by relying on everypage
.
This package allows typesetting pseudocode in LaTeX. It is based on algpseudocode
from the algorithmicx
package and uses the same syntax, but adds several new features and improvements. Notable features include customizable indent guide lines and the ability to draw boxes around parts of the code for highlighting differences. This package also has better support for long code lines spanning several lines and improved comments.
The filter
module provides a simple interface to run external programs on the contents of a start-stop environment. Options are available to run the external program only if the content of the environment has changed, to specify how the program output should be read back, and to choose the name of the temporary files that are created. The module is compatible with both MkII and MkIV.
Domain coloring is a technique to visualize complex functions by assigning a color to each point of the complex plane. This package calculates with the help of Lua any complex function to visualize its behavior. The value of the complex function can be described by radius and angle which can be two values of the HSV-color model, which then defines the color of each point in the complex plane.
The package can be used to facilitate exercise counting and exercise point counting in a LaTeX document. It counts the number of exercises and it sums all the points of the exercises in a document. Especially for exams it is also common to have an overview of all exercises and their maximal points. This is also supported by this package by providing a macro to retrieve the points of each exercise.
The package provides a front end to the stackengine
package, to allow tabbed stacking. In most cases, an existing stackengine
command may be prepended with the word tabbed, align or tabular to create a new tabbed version of a stacking macro. In addition, hooks in the package's parser that tabbed strings of data may be parsed, extracted, and reconstituted (not requiring use of any stacking constructions).
This LaTeX package extends longtable
implementing cells that: merge with the one above if it has the same content, do not merge with the one above unless the ones on the left are merged, are well behaved with respect to longtable
chunking on page breaks, and automatically draw the correct separation lines. The typical use case is a table spanning multiple pages that contains a list of hierarchically organized topics.
This package makes typesetting quantities found in thermodynamics texts relatively simple. The commands are flexible and intended to be relatively intuitive. It handles several sets of notation for total, specific, and molar quantities; allows changes between symbols (e.g., A vs. F for Helmholtz free energy); and greatly simplifies the typesetting of symbols and partial derivatives commonly encountered in mixture thermodynamics. Changes of one's notes from one textbook to another can be achieved relatively easily by changing package options.
This LaTeX package provides a way to typeset exercise sheets as used in university courses and school classes. It has evolved from a set of macros and environments that were finally combined into this package. It has a regular and a Beamer mode, selected depending on the document class used. There also is an embedded mode that allows using exercises in lecture notes etc., without requiring page breaks. Since the package includes a loading mechanism for exercises from external files, the same exercises can be reused in different contexts.
This package allows for drawing a map of a particle accelerator just by giving a list of elements --- similar to lattice files for simulation software. The package includes 12 common element types like dipoles, quadrupoles, cavities, or screens, as well as automatic labels with element names, a legend, a rule, and an environment to fade out parts of the accelerator. The coordinate of any element can be saved and used for custom TikZ drawings or annotations. Thereby, lattices can be connected to draw injection/extraction or even a complete accelerator facility.
