This package supports the creation of a collection of minutes. Its features include:

• support of tasks (who, schedule, what, time of finishing; possibility of creating a list of open tasks; inclusion of open tasks from other minutes);

• support for attachments;

• support of schedule dates (in planning: support for the calendar package);

• different versions, such as secret parts;

• macros for votes and decisions (list of decisions).

Support for minutes in German, Dutch and English is provided.

The macros support the construction of diagrams, such as those that appear in category theory texts. The user gives the list of vertices and arrows to be included, just as when composing a matrix, and the program takes care of computing the dimensions of the arrows and realizing the page setting. All the user has to do about the arrows is to specify their type (monomorphism, pair of adjoint arrows, etc.) and their direction (north, south-east, etc.); 12 types and 32 directions are available.

ArabTeX is a package extending the capabilities of TeX and LaTeX to generate Arabic and Hebrew text. Input may be in ASCII transliteration or other encodings (including UTF-8); output may be Arabic, Hebrew, or any of several languages that use the Arabic script. ArabTeX consists of a TeX macro package and Arabic and Hebrew fonts (provided both in Metafont format and Adobe Type 1). The Arabic font is presently only available in the Naskhi style. ArabTeX will run with Plain TeX and also with LaTeX.

The Computer Modern fonts are available in Type 1 format, but these renditions are somewhat thin and spindly, and produce much lighter results than the originals. These fonts are conversions to Type 3 fonts, done entirely in MetaPost; they are vector fonts which are a direct conversion from the original Metafont files, so they are the design most authentic to the originals. However, these fonts, because they are PostScript Type 3 fonts, are not suitable for on-screen reading, and should probably only be used for printing.

Grid setting --- also known as strict in-register setting --- is something, that should be done for a lot of documents but is not easy using LaTeX. The package helps to get the information needed for grid setting. It does not implement auto grid setting, but there is a command \vskipnextgrid, that moves to the next grid position. This may be enough under some circumstances, but in other circumstances it may fail. Thus gridset

The package provides functionality for typesetting seminar proceedings based on KOMA-Script's scrreprt class and etoc. It offers an alternative to \chapter that typesets the speaker and if necessary the typist of the notes for the talk in question.

Moreover, the class provides two types of table of contents. A global table of contents showing only the talks of the seminar and the respective speakers and a local table of contents for each talk showing the sections and subsections of the respective talk.

The package supports typesetting documents whose counters are represented in base twelve, also called dozenal. It includes a macro for converting positive whole numbers to dozenal from decimal (base ten) representation. The package also includes a few other macros and redefines all the standard counters to produce dozenal output. Fonts, in Roman, italic, slanted, and boldface versions, provide ten and eleven. The fonts were designed to blend well with the Computer Modern fonts, and are available both as Metafont source and in Adobe Type 1 format.

This bundle contains everything needed for typesetting a bachelor, master, or PhD thesis in any language supported by LaTeX. The infix strings may be selected and specified at will by means of a configuration file, so as to customize the layout of the front page to the requirements of a specific university. Thanks to its language management, the bundle is suited for multi-language theses. Toptesi is designed to save the PDF version of a thesis in PDF/A-1b compliant mode and with all the necessary metadata.

This package is obsolete; do not use in new documents. It will do nothing in LaTeX formats after 2015/01/01 as the fixes that it implements were incorporated into the fixltx2e package, which is itself obsolete as since the 2015/01/01 release these fixes are in the LaTeX format itself.

Fix mark handling so that \firstmark is taken from the first column if that column has any marks at all; keep two column floats like figure* in sequence with single column floats like figure.

The package defines \pstODEsolve for solving initial value problems for sets of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF45) method with automatic step size adjustment. The result is stored as a PostScript object and may be plotted later using macros from other PSTricks packages, such as \listplot (from pst-plot) and \listplotThreeD (from pst-3dplot), or may be further processed by user-defined PostScript procedures. Optionally, the computed state vectors can be written as a table to a text file.

This is another tool for the automation of LaTeX document processing, like latexmk or arara. The main feature of this tool is that it does not clutter your working directory with .aux or .log or other auxiliary files. It has of course the usual features of automation tools. It automatically re-runs (La)TeX for cross-references. MakeIndex, BibTeX, Biber, or makeglossaries will be executed if a corresponding option is set. Furthermore, cluttex can watch input files for changes (using an external program).

The CodeDoc class is an alternative to DocStrip (and others) to produce LaTeX code along with its documentation without departing from LaTeX's ordinary syntax. The documentation is prepared like any other LaTeX document and the code to be commented verbatim is simply delimited by an environment. When an option is turned on in the class options, this code is written to the desired file(s). The class also includes fully customizable verbatim environments which provide the author with separate commands to typeset the material and/or to execute it.

The package palette contains two files: colorpalette.sty and symbolpalette. One deals with colors and the other deals with symbols; the implementation is quite similar. With this package you can create themes. Each of these themes have a set of colors, and you can create palettes based on this theme with specific color values for each of the theme's color slots. The active palette for each theme can be swapped in to make experimenting with colors easier or give users choices as to which theme they pick.

The package provides a collection of utilities for manipulating DVI files:

• dvibook, which will rearrange the pages of a DVI file into signatures as used when printing a book;

• dviconcat, for concatenating pages of DVI file(s);

• dviselect, which will select pages from one DVI file to create a new DVI file;

• dvitodvi, which will rearrange the pages of a DVI file to create a new file;

• libtex, a library for manipulating the files, from the old SeeTeX project.

This program provides functionality to process data files (JFM and VF) that form logical fonts used in (u)pTeX. The functions currently available include:

• The mutual conversion between Japanese virtual fonts (pairs of VF and JFM) and files in the ZVP format, which is an original text format representing data in virtual fonts. This function can be seen as a counterpart to the vftovp and vptovf programs.

• The mutual conversion between VF files alone and files in the ZVP0 format, which is a subset of the ZVP format.

The package makes bibliographic references appear as footnotes. It defines a command \footcite which is similar to the LaTeX \cite command but the references cited in this way appear at the bottom of the pages. This foot bibliography does not conflict with the standard one and both may exist simultaneously in a document. The command \cite may still be used to produce the standard bibliography. The foot bibliography uses its own style and bibliographic database which may be specified independently of the standard one. Any standard bibliography style may be used.

PerlTeX is a combination Perl script (perltex.pl) and LaTeX2e package (perltex.sty) that, together, give the user the ability to define LaTeX macros in terms of Perl code. Once defined, a Perl macro becomes indistinguishable from any other LaTeX macro. PerlTeX thereby combines LaTeX's typesetting power with Perl's programmability. PerlTeX will make use of persistent named pipes, and thereby run more efficiently. Also provided is a switch to generate a PerlTeX-free, document-specific, noperltex.sty that is useful when distributing a document to places where PerlTeX is not available.

This package provides generic commands \degree, \celsius, \perthousand, \micro and \ohm, which work both in text and maths mode. Various means are provided to fake the symbols or take them from particular symbol fonts, if they are not available in the default fonts used in the document. This should be perfectly transparent at user level, so that one can apply the same notation for units of measurement in text and math mode and with arbitrary typefaces.

Note that the package has been designed to work in conjunction with units.sty.

The FigSize package enables automatic sizing of graphics, especially when including graphics with the graphicx package. The user only has to specify the number of graphics that should fit to a page or fraction there of and the package will dynamically calculate the correct graphics sizes relative to the page size. Thus, graphics can be auto-sized to fill a whole page or fraction and manual changes of graphic sizes are never needed when changing document layouts. Finally, the package's dynamic lengths can be used to allow other document element sizes to be dynamic.

This package provides macros to read and compare the modification dates of files. The files may be .tex files, images or other files (as long as they can be found by LaTeX). It uses the \pdffilemoddate primitive of pdfLaTeX to find the file modification date as PDF date string, parses the string and returns the value to the user. The package will also work for DVI output with recent versions of the LaTeX compiler which uses pdfLaTeX in DVI mode. The functionality is provided by purely expandable macros or by faster but non-expandable ones.

In some languages, like Czech or Polish, there should be no single letter words at the end of a line, according to typographical norms. This package handles such situations using LuaTeX's callback mechanism. In doing this, the package can detect languages used in the text and insert spaces only in parts of the document where languages requiring this feature are used. Another feature of this package is the inclusion of non-breakable space after initials (like in personal names), after or before academic degrees, and between numbers and units. The package supports both plain LuaTeX and LuaLaTeX.

This package provides a simple way to review LaTeX documents. It allows to highlight hide changes to a document, and to add comments to the text. This will help you to keep track of the changes you make to a document, and to easily spot the changes made by others, while always having the option of compiling a clean version of the document. This package also offers a way to include comments in the text, which can be toggled on and off. This is useful for adding notes to the text, or for leaving comments to other authors.

BibArts is a LaTeX package to assist in making bibliographical features common in the arts and the humanities (history, political science, philosophy, etc.). bibarts.sty provides commands for quotations, abbreviations, and especially for a formatted citation of literature, journals (periodicals), edited sources, and archive sources.

It will also copy all citation information, abbreviations, and register key words into lists for an automatically generated appendix. These lists may refer to page and footnote numbers. BibArts has nothing to do with BibTeX. The lists are created by bibsort. This program creates the bibliography without using MakeIndex or BibTeX.

LaTeX, by default, restricts the sizes at which you can use its default computer modern fonts, to a fixed set of discrete sizes (effectively, a set specified by Knuth). The type1cm package removes this restriction; this is particularly useful when using scalable versions of the cm fonts (Bakoma, or the versions from BSR/Y&Y, or True Type versions from Kinch, PCTeX, etc.). Note that the LaTeX distribution now contains a package fix-cm, which performs the task of type1cm, as well as doing the same job for T1- and TS1-encoded ec fonts.
