The metsymb package introduces commands to generate official meteorological symbols with vectorial quality. It essentially introduces a new font in which each symbol is assigned to a glyph, which can then be called individually from LaTeX documents via dedicated commands.
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 package provides a development of the (old) german.sty, this bundle provides German packages, BibTeX styles and documentary examples, for writing documents with bibliographies. The author has since developed the babelbib bundle, which (he asserts) supersedes germbib.
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.
Hopatch provides a command with which the user may register of patch code for a particular package. Hopatch will apply the patch immediately, if the relevant package has already been loaded; otherwise it will store the patch until the package appears.
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 interfaces to allow creating ZUGFeRD or Faktur-X invoices with LaTeX including the XML file. It can be used to modify personal invoicing templates to fulfill the requirements for digital invoicing without further modification of the invoicing processes.
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 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 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 implements vector-like structures, like in C and other programming languages. So it is possible to store information in a systematic and regular way. The provided functions are similar to the ones provided for property (or sequence, or token) lists.
This package defines commands to manage the limited pool of input and output handles provided by TeX. The streams so provided are mapped to various of the LaTeX input and output mechanisms. Some facilities of the verbatim package are also mapped.
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.
This directory contains the DictSym Type1 font designed by Georg Verweyen and all files required to use it with LaTeX. The font provides a number of symbols commonly used in dictionaries. The accompanying macro package makes the symbols accessible as LaTeX commands.
This package provides macros which can add a specified number of days to the current date (as specified in \today), to save, set and restore the current date and to print it. The package has only been tested with Czech dates.
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.
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.
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.
DSSerif is a mathematical font package with double struck serifed digits, upper and lower case letters, in regular and bold weights. The design was inspired by the STIX double struck fonts, which are sans serif, but starting from a Courier-like base.
