This package provides a style file for use with the letter
class that overwrites the \opening
and \closing
macros so that letters can be styled with the block letter style instead of the default style. Thus, the return address, the closing, and the signature appear flushed on the left margin.
mkpic
provides an easy interface for making small pictures with mfpic
. To this end you create an input file consisting of commands, one per line, with space separated parameters (or you modify the DATA section of the mkpic
script, which is used if you run it without an input file).
The Obyknovennaya Novaya (Ordinary New Face) typeface was widely used in the USSR for scientific and technical publications, as well as textbooks. The fonts are encoded to KOI8-R (which is a long-established Russian font encoding, rather than a TeX/LaTeX encoding). To use the fonts, the user needs Cyrillic font support.
The package provides a simple means of producing greeting cards. It arranges four panels onto a single sheet so that when the sheet is folded twice the four panels are arranged as front cover, inside left and right pages, and back cover. The four panels are set in minipages for formatting by the user.
Some tools massage PostScript into booklet and two-up printing --- that is, printing two logical pages side by side on one side of one sheet of paper. However, some LaTeX preliminaries are necessary to use those tools. The twoup
package provides such preliminaries and gives advice on how to use the PostScript tools.
This package provides solutions to a number of common difficulties in writing displayed equations and getting high-quality output. The single most ambitious goal of the package is to support automatic linebreaking of displayed equations. The bundle also contains the flexisym
and mathstyle
packages, which are both designated as support for breqn
.
Tapir is a simple geometrical font mostly created of line and circular segments with constant thickness. The font is available as Metafont source and in Adobe Type 1 format. The character set contains all ASCII characters in the range 0-127 (as in cmr10
), accented characters used in the Czech, Slovak and Polish languages.
This package provides a LaTeX package and an example class for documenting (La)TeX packages, document classes, .dtx
etc., providing hyperlinks. The package is believed to be compatible with doc
and permits minimal markup of code. The package provides automatic detection of definitions (detecting such things as \def
, \newcommand
, \DeclareOption
etc.).
The milog.cls
class provides means to fulfill the documentation duties by the German minimum wage law MiLoG. The recording of working hours is carried out in a simple CSV file from which the class will automatically create a time sheet. Alternatively, data can also be collected by a CSV export of a suitable app.
The float
package improves the interface for defining floating objects such as figures and tables. It introduces the boxed float, the ruled float and the plaintop float. You can define your own floats and improve the behaviour of the old ones. The package also provides the H float modifier option of the obsolete here
package.
Xindy was developed after an impasse had been encountered in the attempt to complete internationalisation of makeindex
. Xindy can be used to process indexes for documents marked up using (La)TeX, Nroff family and SGML-based languages. Xindy is highly configurable, both in markup terms and in terms of the collating order of the text being processed.
This package can be used to format strategic games. For a 2x2 game, for example, the input: \begin{game}22 &$L$ &$M$\\ $T$ &$2,2$ &$2,0$\\ $B$ &$3,0$ &$0,9$ \end{game} produces output with (a) boxes around the payoffs, (b) payoff columns of equal width, and (c) payoffs vertically centered within the boxes.
The package is for use in Qualitative Data Analysis research. It supports the integration of Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA) research tasks, specifically for Grounded Theory, into the LaTeX work flow. It assists in the analysis of textual data such as interview transcripts and field notes by providing the LaTeX user with macros which are used to markup textual information.
This package, which works both for Plain TeX and for LaTeX, defines the \ifPDFTeX
, \ifXeTeX
, and \ifLuaTeX
conditionals for testing which engine is being used for typesetting. The package also provides the \RequirePDFTeX
, \RequireXeTeX
, and \RequireLuaTeX
commands which throw an error if pdfTeX, XeTeX or LuaTeX (respectively) is not the engine in use.
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; 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 extensions to epic
and the LaTeX picture drawing environment. It includes the drawing of lines at any slope, the drawing of circles in any radii, and the drawing of dotted and dashed lines much faster with much less TeX memory, and providing several new commands for drawing ellipses, arcs, splines, and filled circles and ellipses.
The bundle provides a Beamer-derived class and a theme style file for the corporate design of the UR. It also contains a scrlttr2
-derived class for letters using the corporate design of the UR. Users may use the class itself (URbeamer) or use the theme in the usual way with \usetheme{UR}
.
The package offers support for drawing tree diagrams, and is especially suitable for linguistics use. It allows trees to be specified in a simple bracket notation, automatically calculates branch sizes, and supports both DVI/PostScript and PDF output by use of pict2e
facilities. The package is a development of the existing qobitree
package, offering a new front end.
This package is a LaTeX adaptation of a set of tools developed for ConTeXt reproduction of Oliver Byrne's 1847 edition of the first six books of Euclid's Elements; see https://github.com/jemmybutton/byrne-euclid. It consists of a MetaPost library, responsible for all the drawing and a set of LaTeX macros to conveniently use them.
This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the Inter Sans family of fonts, designed by Rasmus Andersson. Inter is a typeface specially designed for user interfaces with focus on high legibility of small-to-medium sized text on computer screens. The family features a tall x-height to aid in readability of mixed-case and lower-case text.
This is a versatile bundle of packages and classes for consistent formatting of control sequences, package options, source code examples, and writing a package manual (including an index containing the explained control sequences, options, ldots). The bundle also provides several other small ideas of mine such as a mechansim for providing abbreviations etc. Not at least it provides a number of programming tools.
Clara is a type family created specially by Seamas O Brogain. The family includes italic, bold, bold italic, and small capitals, while the character set includes (monotonic) Greek, Cyrillic, ogham, phonetic and mathematical ranges, scribal abbreviations and other specialist characters. The fonts also include some OpenType features (such as ligature substitution, small capitals, and old-style numerals) and variant forms for particular languages.
This package offers the user an easy way to typeset the Holy Quran. It provides several macros for typesetting the whole or any part of the Quran based on its popular division, including Surah, Ayah, Juz, Hizb, Quarter, and Page. Besides the Arabic original, translations to English, German, French, and Persian are provided, as well as an English transliteration.
The package allows citations in the German style, which is considered by many to be particularly reader-friendly. The citation provides a small amount of bibliographic information in a footnote on the page where each citation is made. It combines a desire to eliminate unnecessary page-turning with the look-up efficiency afforded by numeric citations. The package makes use of BibLaTeX, and is considered experimental.
