The milestonetimeline package provides a flexible way to create horizontal milestone timelines in LaTeX documents with support for date-based positioning, label rotation, and per-milestone customization.

This is a LaTeX Beamer theme designed for the Department of Economics at Bilkent University. It provides a clean, professional presentation style with department-specific colors, custom title pages, and consistent slide formatting for lectures, seminars, and research talks.

The package offers a simple notation for pretty complex tables (to Michael J.: Ferguson's credit). With PostScript, the package allows shaded/coloured tables, diagonal rules, etc. The package is supposed to work with both Plain and LaTeX. An AWK converter from ASCII semigraphic tables to TAP notation is included.

The package allows you to draw Go game positions with MetaPost. Two methods of usage are provided, either using the package programmatically, or using the package via a script (which may produce several images).

The bundle offers styles that allow authors to use BibLaTeX when preparing papers for submission to the journal Science.

This package provides LaTeX and BibTeX style files for a respectably close approximation to APA citation and reference style.

The package offers Persian language support for indexing using Xindy.

This package allows for the omission of backslashes from most math mode commands. Specifically, any consecutive string of at least two (Latin) letters appearing in math mode will automatically be turned into the control sequence with the same name, if it exists. This behavior can be toggled with specific commands.

The package implements a \crbox command which produces boxes with crossing lines at the corners.

The package provides commands so that the user of LuaLaTeX may position arbitrary content at any position specified by absolute coordinates on the page. The package draws a grid on each page of the document, to aid positioning (the grid may be disabled, for final copy using the command \placeatsetup).

The sTeX package collection is a version of (La)TeX that allows marking up (La)TeX documents semantically without leaving the document format, essentially turning it into a document format for mathematical knowledge management (MKM).

This bundle contains the two packages svg and svg-extract.

The svg package is intended for the automated integration of SVG graphics into LaTeX documents. Therefore the capabilities provided by Inkscape --- or more precisely its command line tool --- are used to export the text within an SVG graphic to a separate file, which is then rendered by LaTeX. For this purpose the two commands \includesvg and \includeinkscape are provided which are very similar to the \includegraphics command of the graphicx package.

In addition, the package svg-extract allows the extraction of these graphics into independent files in different graphic formats, exactly as it is rendered within the LaTeX document, using either ImageMagick or Ghostscript.

The glossaries package supports acronyms and multiple glossaries, and has provision for operation in several languages (using the facilities of either Babel or Polyglossia). New entries are defined to have a name and description (and optionally an associated symbol). Support for multiple languages is offered, and plural forms of terms may be specified. An additional package, glossaries-accsupp, can make use of the accsupp package mechanisms for accessibility support for PDF files containing glossaries. The user may define new glossary styles, and preambles and postambles can be specified. There is provision for loading a database of terms, but only terms used in the text will be added to the relevant glossary.

The package uses an indexing program to provide the actual glossary; either MakeIndex or Xindy may serve this purpose, and a Perl script is provided to serve as interface. The package supersedes glossary package (which is now obsolete).

The package provides support for LaTeX documents to use many of the extensions offered by e-TeX; in particular, it modifies LaTeX's register allocation macros to make use of the extended register range. The etextools package provides macros that make more sophisticated use of e-TeX's facilities.

This package is an attempt to track skills assessed during a classroom check. Each question can be associated with one or more skills and be assigned a number of points to be earned. At the end of the text, a table set summarizes the skills assessed, and in what proportions.

This package is designed to emulate the way Windows Explorer displays directory and file trees, with the root at top left, and each level of subtree displaying one step in to the right. The macros work equally well with Plain TeX and with LaTeX.

This package provides math support via newtxmath for NotoSerif and NotoSans. (Regular and Bold weights only.)

The original grffile package extended the file name processing of the graphics package to support a larger range of file names. The base LaTeX code now supports multiple dots and spaces, and this package by default is a stub that just loads graphicx.

This LuaLaTeX package provides batch generation of scale and chord diagrams for plucked string instruments, such as the guitar.

Detex is a program to remove TeX constructs from a text file. It recognizes the \input command. The program assumes it is dealing with LaTeX input if it sees the string \begin{document} in the text. In this case, it also recognizes the \include and \includeonly commands. The author now considers this program to be obsolete and Piotr Kubowicz's OpenDetex as its successor.

This package provides an easy and flexible user interface to customize page layout, implementing auto-centering and auto-balancing mechanisms so that the users have only to give the least description for the page layout. The package knows about all the standard paper sizes, so that the user need not know what the nominal real dimensions of the paper are, just its standard name (such as a4, letter, etc.). An important feature is the package's ability to communicate the paper size it's set up to the output.

Biber is a BibTeX replacement for users of BibLaTeX. It supports full UTF-8, can (re)-encode input and output, supports highly configurable sorting, dynamic bibliography sets and many other features.

The package provides upright Greek letters in support of other chemistry packages (such as chemmacros).

This package provides a set of simple MetaPost macros to draw block diagrams and bond graphs. While the task is not itself difficult to program, it is felt that many users will be happy to have a library for the job.
