The caption package provides many ways to customise the captions in floating environments like figure and table, and cooperates with many other packages. Facilities include rotating captions, sideways captions, continued captions (for tables or figures that come in several parts). A list of compatibility notes, for other packages, is provided in the documentation. The package also provides the caption outside float facility, in the same way that simpler packages like capt-of do.

This package provides a TikZ library for working with tiles, tilings, and tessellations. Using it, one can define tiles, place tiles, deform tiles, and --- in some cases --- apply replacement rules to generate tessellations. It has pre-defined tiles for most of the Penrose tile sets and the aperiodical polykite tiles. This is a replacement for the penrose package, renamed as it now deals with more extensive tiles than just the Penrose tile sets.

This package provides a fully scalable version of the Computer Modern Math Extension font for curing sizing problems mainly with lmodern. It can be used when the main font of the document is Computer Modern (or European Modern, if T1 encoding is selected), or Latin Modern. It redefines the math extension font so that it becomes arbitrarily scalable, using the optical size fonts provided by the AMS together with the original cmex10 font.

This package aims to provide you with an easy interface to speed up the process when organizing and producing elegant notes. All the tables, figures, equations, and listings are labelled according to the notenumber with the \titlebox command. The noteframe environment helps you generate fancy colored boxes to emphasize the important information (e.g. theorems, equations, proofs, etc.) in your document. You can customize the style and color to denote different categories, too.

This package is designed to simplify the development and distribution of scripts for theatrical musicals, especially ones under development. The output is formatted to follow generally accepted script style while also maintaining a high level of typographic integrity, and includes commands for dialog, lyrics, stage directions, music and dance cues, rehearsal marks, and more. It gracefully handles dialog that crosses page breaks, and can generate lists of songs and lists of dances in the show.

The MetaPost package latexMP implements a user-friendly interface to access LaTeX-based typesetting capabilities in MetaPost. The text to be typeset is given as string. This allows even dynamic text elements, for example counters, to be used in labels. Compared to other implementations it is much more flexible, since it can be used as direct replacement for btex.etex, and much faster, compared for example to the solution provided by tex.mp.

The bundle provides two packages: commado and filesdo. The package commado provides the command \DoWithCSL, which applies an existing one-parameter macro to each item in a list in which terms are separated by commas.

The package filesdo provides the command \DoWithBasesExts, which runs the single parameter command on each file whose base and extension are provided through two comma-separated lists.

These loop'-like commands are (themselves) entirely expandable.

This package enables users to declare in their document which physical fonts should be used for the standard Japanese (logical) fonts of pLaTeX and upLaTeX. Font setup is realized by changing the font mapping of dvipdfmx, and thus users can use any (monospaced) physical fonts they like, once they properly install this package, without creating helper files for each new font. This package also supports setup for the fonts used in the japanese-otf package.

EasyDTX is a variant of the DTX format which eliminates the need for all those pesky macrocode environments. Any line introduced by a single comment counts as documentation, and documentation lines may be indented. An .edtx file is converted to a .dtx by a Perl script called edtx2dtx. There is also a rudimentary Emacs mode, implemented in easydoctex-mode.el, which takes care of fontification, indentation, and forward and inverse search.

This TikZ library is designed for generating diagrams related to Automated Planning, a sub-discipline of Artificial Intelligence. It allows users to define a ``domain model'' for actions, similar to PDDL and HDDL used in hierarchical planning. The package is useful for researchers and students to create diagrams that represent sequential action sequences or partially ordered plans, including causal links and ordering constraints (e.g., POCL plans). It is particularly suited for presentations and scientific publications.

This package provides a comfort graphics library to work with graphic objects as immutables in the Lua programming language. It writes code for the TikZ package. It overloads operators, so you can use standard math expressions to work with graphical objects. There probably isn't anything that couldn't been done just as well with pgfmath and TikZ directly. However, if a graphic gets more complicated, Lua may just be easier to work with as base.

The package provides a class based on memoir to prepare theses and memoirs compliant with the presentation rules set forth by the Faculty of Graduate Studies of Universite Laval, Quebec, Canada. The class also comes with an extensive set of templates for the various types of theses and memoirs offered at Laval.

Please note that the documentation for the class and the comments in the templates are all written in French, the language of the target audience.

The package aims to provide a one-stop solution to requirements for footnotes. It offers multiple footnote apparatus superior to that of manyfoot. Footnotes can be formatted in separate paragraphs, or be run into a single paragraph. Note that the majority of the bigfoot package's interface is identical to that of manyfoot; users should seek information from that package's documentation.

The bigfoot bundle also provides the perpage and suffix packages.

This is a LaTeX package that provides a command to produce dummy text interspersed with \index commands to test an index style or indexing application. The dummy text is mostly in English, but includes extended Latin characters provided either through LaTeX accent commands or directly with UTF-8 characters, depending on the setup, to allow for testing extended Latin alphabets. The supplementary package testidx-glossaries.sty uses the indexing interface provided by the glossaries package.

METATeX is a set of plain TeX and Metafont macros that you can use to define both the text and the figures in a single source file. Because METATeX sets up two way communication, from TeX to Metafont and back from Metafont to TeX, drawing dimensions can be controlled by TeX and labels can be located by Metafont. Only standard features of TeX and Metafont are used, but two runs of TeX and one of Metafont are needed.

The package addresses, for LaTeX documents, the severe limitation on the number of output streams that TeX provides. The package uses a single TeX output stream, and writes marked-up output to this stream. The user may then post-process the marked-up output file, using LaTeX, and the document's output appears as separate files, according to the calls made to the package. The output to be post-processed uses macros from the widely-available ProTeX package.

The package provides the commands to flag chapters or sections (or anything else destined to become a TOC line). The command \nexttocwithtags{req1,req2,...}{excl1,excl2,...} specifies which tags are to be required and which ones are to be excluded by the next \tableofcontents (or equivalent) command. In a document that uses a class where \tableofcontents may only be used once, the command \tableoftaggedcontents{req1,req2,...}{excl1,excl2,...} may be used to provide several tables.

The package offers a collection of simple macros for preparing presentations in Plain TeX. Slide colour and text colour may be set, links between parts of the presentation, to other files, and to web addresses may be inserted. Images may be included easily, and code is available to provide transition effects between slides or frames. The structure of the macros is not overly complex, so that users should find it easy to adapt the macros to their specific needs.

Memoize is a package for externalization of graphics and memoization of compilation results in general, allowing the author to reuse the results of compilation-intensive code. Memoize induces very little overhead, as all externalized graphics is produced in a single compilation. It features automatic recompilation upon the change of code or user-adjustable context, and automatic externalization of TikZ pictures and Forest trees, easily extensible to other commands and environments. Furthermore, Memoize supports cross-referencing, TikZ overlays and Beamer.

This LaTeX package executes programming source codes (including all command line tools) from within LaTeX and embeds the output in the resulting .pdf file. Many programming languages can be easily used and any command-line executable can be invoked when preparing the .pdf file from a .tex file. It is however recommended to use this package in server-mode together with the Python talk2stat package. Currently, this server-mode supports Julia, MatLab, Python, and R.

Latexmk completely automates the process of generating a LaTeX document. Given the source files for a document, latexmk issues the appropriate sequence of commands to generate a .dvi, .ps, .pdf or hardcopy version of the document. An important feature is the preview continuous mode, where the script watches all of the source files and reruns LaTeX, etc., whenever a source file has changed. Thus a previewer can offer a display of the document's latest state.

The minitoc package allows you to add mini-tables-of-contents (minitocs) at the beginning of every chapter, part or section. There is also provision for mini-lists of figures and of tables. At the part level, they are parttocs, partlofs and partlots. If the type of document does not use chapters, the basic provision is section level secttocs, sectlofs and sectlots. The package has provision for language-specific configuration of its own fixed names, using .mld files.

TeXdraw is a set of macro definitions for TeX, which allow the user to produce PostScript drawings from within TeX and LaTeX. TeXdraw has been designed to be extensible. Drawing segments are relocatable, self-contained units. Using a combination of TeX's grouping mechanism and the gsave/grestore mechanism in PostScript, drawing segments allow for local changes to the scaling and line parameters. Using TeX's macro definition capability, new drawing commands can be constructed from drawing segments.

This is a complete and easy-to-use package for typesetting pretty tables of signs and variations according to French usage. The syntax is similar to that of the array environment and uses intuitive position commands. Arrows are drawn automatically (using PSTricks by default or TikZ as an option). Macros are provided for drawing twin bars, single bars crossing the zeros, areas where the function is not defined, or placing special values. Several features of the variation tables can be customized.
