Kblocks defines a number of commands to make drawing control block diagrams using TikZ/PGF more structured and easier. It reduces the learning curve for TikZ/PGF and serves as a frontend, by focusing on the block or flow diagrams only.
This package provides a prefix \named
to be used in TeX definitions so that parameters can be identified by their name rather than by number, giving parameters a semantic rather than syntactic meaning, making it easy to understand long definitions.
This package provides a development of the (old) german.sty

bundle, which (he asserts) supersedes germbib
.
The package provides a paragraph generator designed for use in Plain TeX documents. The paragraphs generated contain many f-groups (ff, fl etc.) so the text can act as a test of the ligatures of the font in use.
This package provides a very short snippet that sets the footnotes to be conformant with the Chicago style, so the footnotes at the bottom of the page are now marked with a full-sized number, rather than with a superscript number.
This package provides commands for abbreviating the word ``Suppose'' in six fonts and with other variations. The author recommends only using these commands when the immediately succeeding strings are mathematical in nature. He does not recommend using them in formal work.
The package calculates the age of someone or something in years. Internally it uses the datenumber
package to calculate the age in days; conversion from days to years is then performed, taking care of leap years and such odd things.
The package defines a command \leading
, whose argument specifies the nominal distance between consecutive baselines of typeset text. The command replaces the rather more difficult LaTeX command \linespread
, where the leading is specified by reference to the font size.
This package includes Plain TeX macros adding extra functionalities. This comprises bibliography support, token manipulation, cross-references, verbatim, determining length of a paragraph's last line, multicolumn output, Polish bibliography and index styles, prepress and color separation, graphics manipulation, and tables.

This bundle started as an extension to the AGU's own published styles, providing extra facilities and improved usability. The AGU now publishes satisfactory LaTeX materials of its own; it is recommended to switch to the official distribution.
The leipzig
package provides a set of macros for standard glossing abbreviations, with options to create new ones. They are mnemonic. These abbreviations can be used alone or on top of the glossaries
package for easy indexing and glossary printing.
The package integrates the features of xkeyval
and of pgfkeys
by introducing a new type of handlers. Style keys, links, changing key callbacks and values on the fly, and other features of pgfkeys
are introduced in a new context.
Using the \AtBeginPage
hook provided by this package, you can add material in the background of a page. \PageLayout
can be used to give page makeup commands to be executed on every page (e.g., depending on the page style).
This package displays information about a document, including: text positioning on a page; disposition of floats; layout of paragraphs, lists, footnotes, table of contents, and sectional headings; font boxes. Facilities are provided for a document designer to experiment with the layout parameters.
This package is designed to help mathematicians publishing papers in the area of recursion theory (aka Computability Theory) easily use standard notation. This includes easy commands to denote Turing reductions, Turing functionals, c.e.: sets, stagewise computations, forcing and syntactic classes.
The European currency symbol for the Euro implemented in Metafont, using the official European Commission dimensions, and providing several shapes (normal, slanted, bold, outline). The package also includes a LaTeX package which defines the macro, pre-compiled tfm
files, and documentation.
This package provides a \DeclareFixedFootnote
command to provide a single command for a frequently-used footnote. The package ensures that only one instance of the footnote text appears on each page (LaTeX needs to be run several times to achieve this).
The package simplifies the indexing of words using the \index
command of makeidx
. With the package, to index a word in a text, you only have to type it once; the package makes sure it is both typeset and indexed.
This package provides LaTeX font definition files for the Concrete fonts and a LaTeX package for typesetting documents using Concrete as the default font family. The files support OT1, T1, TS1, and Concrete mathematics including AMS fonts (Ulrik Vieth's concmath
).
