This package provides a collection of TikZ-based commands for drawing laser setups and optical systems. It includes components such as lenses, mirrors, beamsplitters, cameras, spectrometers, detectors and more. Furthermore, rainbow and single color beams can be drawn to visualize beam size and dispersion in e.g., stretcher-compressor setups.

This package allows to slant (or shear) short pieces of text to the left or to the right by an arbitrary angle, thus creating for example ``fake italics'' or upright italics. Several back-ends that do the actual shearing are supported, though currently the pdfLaTeX back-end works best concerning output quality and processing speed.

The package extracts the first and last words of a page, together with the first word of the next page, just before the page is formed into the object to print. The package defines a couple of page styles that use the words that have been extracted.

This module provides the dutch style that can be set using \DTMsetstyle provided by datetime2.sty. This package is currently unmaintained.

The package uses PSTricks to provide basic three-dimensional objects. As yet, only cubes (which can be deformed to rectangular parallelipipeds) and dies (which are only a special kind of cubes) are defined.

The bundle provides four packages:

• rubikcube provides commands for typesetting Rubik cubes and their transformations,

• rubiktwocube provides commands for typesetting Rubik twocubes and their transformations,

• rubikrotation can process a sequence of Rubik rotation moves, with the help of a Perl package executed via \write18 (shell escape) commands,

• rubikpatterns is a collection of well known patterns and their associated rotation sequences.

The clipboard package provides a basic framework for copying and pasting text and commands into and across multiple documents. It replaces the copypaste package.

FigBib lets you organize your figures in BibTeX databases. Some FigBib features are:

• store and manage figures in a BibTeX database;

• Include figures in your LaTeX document with one short command;

• generate a list of figures containing more or other information than the figure captions;

• control with one switch where to output the figures, either as usual float objects or in a separate part at the end of your document.

This small library provides a standard set of environments for writing optimization problems. It automatically aligns the problems in three points with an optional fourth:

• beginning of the words minimize/argmin and subject to,

• the objective function and the longest left hand side of the constraints.

• the $=, |, >, |, <$ signs of the constraints.

• optionally, the user can add manually a double align character && to align some common constraints feature; a clear example could be the constraints names, e.g., boundary constraint alignment with dynamic constraint.

Furthermore, it provides an easy interface to define optimization problem for three different reference situations:

1. where no equation is referenced/numbered;

2. where the problem is referenced with a single number;

3. where each equation has an individual reference.

Finally, it also allows a definition of any optimization problem without a limitless number of constraints.

The MFizz font provides scalable vector icons representing programming languages, operating systems, software engineering, and technology. It can be seen as an extension to FontAwesome.

sectionbox is a LaTeX package for putting fancy colored boxes around sections, subsections, and subsubsections, especially for use in posters, etc. It was designed with the sciposter class in mind, and certainly works with that class and with derived classes.

PicTeX is an early and very comprehensive drawing package that mostly draws by placing myriads of small dots to make up pictures. It has a tendency to run out of space; packages m-pictex and pictexwd deal with the problems in different ways.

pTeX adds features related to vertical writing, and deals with other problems in typesetting Japanese. A manual (in both Japanese and English) is distributed as package pTeX-manual.

This package can be used to write vectors using an arrow which differs from the Computer Modern one. You have the choice between several kinds of arrows. The package consists of the relevant Metafont code and a package to use it.

This package provides a friendly interface for defining the meaning of Unicode characters. The document should be processed by (pdf)LaTeX with the Unicode option of inputenc or inputenx, or by XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX.

Norwegian Nynorsk language module for the glossaries package.

The ABNT package provides a clean and practical implementation of the ABNT rules for academic texts.

This package uses both tracklang and texosquery to look up the locale information from the operating system and provide commands that can access locale-dependent information, such as the currency symbol and decimal separator.

This document is meant for users who are looking for information about the basics of TeX. Its main goal is its brevity. The pure TeX features are described, no features provided by macro extensions. Only the last section gives a summary of plain TeX macros.

Several conditions can cause LaTeX labels to keep changing, no matter how many times a document is recompiled. This package helps diagnose the cause of repeated ``Label(s) may have changed'' warnings. The names and before/after definitions of changing labels are printed at the end of each compile. Multiply-defined labels are printed as well.

This class is designed to typeset laboratory journals that contain chronologically ordered records about experiments. From the sectioning commands, an experiment index is generated. The class is based on the KOMA-Script class scrbook.cls. There can be several index entries for one experiment.

This package provides binaries for texlive-autosp.

The built-in determination of the bounding box in TikZ is not entirely accurate. This is because, for Bezier curves, it is the smallest box that contains all control points, which is in general larger than the box that just contains the curve. This library determines the exact bounding box of the curve.

This is a Chinese translation of the tlmgr documentation. It introduces some of the common usage of the TeX Live Manager. The original can be found in the tlmgrbasics package.
