The purpose of this package is to decrease the number of keystrokes needed to typeset small amounts of aligned material (matrices, arrays, etc.). It provides a facility for typing alignment environments and macros with spaces as the alignment delimiter and semicolons (by default) as the end-of-row indicator. This package also contains utility macros for typesetting augmented matrices, vectors, arrays, systems of equations, and more, and is easily extendable to other situations that use alignments. People who have to typeset a large number of matrices (like linear algebra teachers) should find this package to be a real time saver.
Bibhtml consists of a Perl script and a set of BibTeX style files, which together allow you to output a bibliography as a collection of HTML files. The references in the text are linked directly to the corresponding bibliography entry, and if a URL is defined in the entry within the BibTeX database file, then the generated bibliography entry is linked to this. The package provides three different style files derived from each of the standard plain.bst
and alpha.bst
, as well as two style files derived from abbrv.bst
and unsrt.bst (i.e., eight in total).
This package can help make classic Hex'n'Counter wargames using LaTeX. The package provide tools for generating Hex maps and boards Counters for units, markers, and so on Counter sheets Order of Battle charts Illustrations in the rules using the defined maps and counters The result will often be a PDF (or set of PDFs) that contain everything one will need for a game (rules, charts, boards, counter sheets). The package uses NATO App6 symbology for units. The package uses NATO App6 symbology for units. The package uses TikZ for most things. The package support exporting the game to a VASSAL module.
LaTeX's default style of typesetting mathematics does not comply with the International Standards ISO 31-0:1992 to ISO 31-13:1992 which require that uppercase Greek letters always be typset upright, as opposed to italic (even though they usually represent variables) and allow for typsetting of variables in a boldface italic style (even though the required fonts are available). This package ensures that uppercase Greek be typeset in italic style, that upright $\Delta$ and $\Omega$ symbols are available through the commands \upDelta
and \upOmega
; and provides a new math alphabet \mathbold
for boldface italic letters, including Greek.
ekdosis
is a LuaLaTeX package designed for multilingual critical editions. It can be used to typeset texts and different layers of critical notes in any direction accepted by LuaTeX. Texts can be arranged in running paragraphs or on facing pages, in any number of columns which in turn can be synchronized or not. In addition to printed texts, ekdosis
can convert .tex
source files so as to produce TEI XML-compliant critical editions. Database-driven encoding under LaTeX then allows extraction of texts entered segment by segment according to various criteria: main edited text, variant readings, translations or annotated borrowings between texts.
This is the principal package in the AMS-LaTeX distribution. It adapts for use in LaTeX most of the mathematical features found in AMS-TeX; it is highly recommended as an adjunct to serious mathematical typesetting in LaTeX. When amsmath is loaded, AMS-LaTeX packages amsbsy
(for bold symbols), amsopn
(for operator names) and amstext
(for text embedded in mathematics) are also loaded. This package is part of the LaTeX required distribution; however, several contributed packages add still further to its appeal; examples are empheq
, which provides functions for decorating and highlighting mathematics, and ntheorem
, for specifying theorem (and similar) definitions.
In 2011 Andrij's typeface became a winner of the Ukrainian Type Design Competition ``Mystetsky Arsenal'' in which three main criteria were sought for: being zeitgeist, practical, and Ukrainian. Andrij's winning entry was crowned Arsenal and made publicly available. Arsenal is a semi-grotesque with traditional forms. It is primarily designed for body text and intended for various professional communication. Its special qualities of letter shapes and subtle contrast modulation articulate grace and expressiveness. Arsenal's somewhat lyrical sentiment abides to the Ukrainian nature of the font. This package provides the fonts and LaTeX support for them with matching math. It needs LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX.
TeXmate formats chess games from very simple ASCII input. The clean 1.: e4 e5; 2.: Nf3 Nc6; 3.: Bb5 a6 will produce the same results as the sloppier 1 e4 e5; Nf3 Nc6 3..: Bb5 a6. The resulting format is fully customizable. There are 4 levels of commentary: 1 is the main game, 2-3 are commentaries. Each has its fonts, punctuation marks, etc., and these are also customizable. The package includes a tool for the creation of diagrams. The package works in conjunction with skak
to produce diagrams of the current position automatically. For chess fonts, the package uses the chessfss
system.
The scrhack
package used to be part of KOMA-Script. It was originally intended to improve the compatibility of third-party packages with KOMA-Script. However, most of the so-called hacks also added additional functionality to the corresponding third-party package. On the other hand, it was sometimes urgent to react to a change in such a third-party package, which was difficult to do from within a large collection like KOMA-Script. Therefore, the scrhack
part of KOMA-Script was split into several independent packages. And the scrhack
spin-off was made to emulate the former KOMA-Script package of the same name.
Txfonts supplies virtual text roman fonts using Adobe Times (or URW NimbusRomNo9L) with some modified and additional text symbols in the OT1, T1, and TS1 encodings; maths alphabets using Times/URW Nimbus; maths fonts providing all the symbols of the Computer Modern and AMS fonts, including all the Greek capital letters from CMR; and additional maths fonts of various other symbols.
The set is complemented by a sans-serif set of text fonts, based on Helvetica/NimbusSanL, and a monospace set.
All the fonts are in Type 1 format (AFM and PFB files), and are supported by TeX metrics (VF and TFM files) and macros for use with LaTeX.
The bundle contains various macros either used for creating the author's book Introduktion til LaTeX (in Danish), or presented in the book as code tips. The bundle comprises:
dlfltxbcodetips
: various macros helpful in typesetting mathematics;dlfltxbmarkup
: provides macros used throughout, for registering macro names, packages etc., in the text, in the margin and in the index, all by using categorised keys;dlfltxbtocconfig
: macros for the two tables of contents that the book has;dlfltxbmisc
: various macros for typesetting LaTeX arguments, and the macro used in the bibliography that can wrap a URL up into a BibTeX entry.
Pxfonts supplies virtual text roman fonts using Adobe Palatino (or URWPalladioL) with some modified and additional text symbols in the OT1, T1, and TS1 encodings; maths alphabets using Palatino/Palladio; maths fonts providing all the symbols of the Computer Modern and AMS fonts, including all the Greek capital letters from CMR; and additional maths fonts of various other symbols. The set is complemented by a sans-serif set of text fonts, based on Helvetica/NimbusSanL, and a monospace set derived from the parallel TX font set. All the fonts are in Type 1 format (AFM and PFB files), and are supported by TeX metrics (VF and TFM files) and macros for use with LaTeX.
The (Sherlock Holmes) book contains a code which uses dancing men as glyphs. The alphabet as given is not complete, lacking f, j, k, q, u, w, x and z, so those letters in the font are not due to Conan Doyle.
The code required word endings to be marked by the dancing man representing the last letter to be holding a flag: these are coded as A-Z. In some cases, the man has no arms, making it impossible for him to hold a flag. In these cases, he is wearing a flag on his hat in the character. The font is distributed as Metafont source.
Typewriter-style fonts are best for program listings, but Computer Modern Typewriter prints ` and ' as bent opening and closing single quotes. Other fonts, and most programming languages, print ` as a grave accent and ' upright; ' is used both to open and to close quoted strings. The package switches the typewriter font to Computer Modern Typewriter in OT1 encoding, and modifies the behaviour of verbatim
, verbatim*
, \verb
, and \verb*
to print in the expected way. It does this regardless of other fonts or encodings in use, so long as the package is loaded after the other fonts were. The package does not affect \tt
, \texttt
, etc.
The family contains text fonts in roman, sans-serif and monospaced shapes, with true small caps and old-style numbers; the package offers full support of the textcomp package. The mathematics fonts include all the AMS fonts, in both normal and bold weights. Each of the font types is available in two main versions: default and light. Each version is available in four variants: default; oldstyle numbers; oldstyle numbers with old ligatures such as ct and st, and long-tailed capital Q; and veryoldstyle with long s. Other variants include small caps as default or large small caps, and for mathematics both upright and slanted shapes for Greek letters, as well as default and narrow versions of multiple integrals.
PSfragX offers a mechanism to embed \psfrag
commands, as provided by the psfrag
package, into the EPS file itself. Each time a graphic is included, the EPS file is scanned. If some tagged lines are found, they are used to define the psfrag replacements that should be performed automatically. In addition, a similar mechanism holds for overpic objects. These are picture objects superimposed on the included graphic. For example, if Babel is used, it is possible to define different replacements corresponding to different languages. The replacements to take into account will be selected on the basis of the current language of the document.
A Matlab script (LaPrint) is provided, to export an EPS file with psfragx
annotations ready embedded.
Package TIPA uses the T3 encoding for producing IPA characters. The package is widely used in the field of linguistics, but because of the old encoding, the output documents are less productive than Unicode-based documents. This package redefines most of the TIPA-commands for outputting Unicode characters. Users can now use their beloved TIPA shortcuts with the benefits of Unicode, i.e., searchability, copy-pasting, changing the font and many more.
As this package needs the fontspec
package for loading an IPA font, it needs to be compiled with XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. This package can also be viewed as an ASCII-based input method for producing IPA characters in Unicode. It needs the New Computer Modern font for printing IPA characters.
Having lost the overview of my DVD archives, I simply could not remember if I already recorded the documentary running on TV that day. I chose to recreate the index using LaTeX: the design aim was a hyperlinked and fully searchable PDF-document, listing my DVDs with all titles, lengths and so on. Further requirements were support for seasons of TV series and a list with all faulty or missing programs for rerecording. The dvdcoll
class supports all these requirements.
dvdcoll.cls
follows the structure <number><title><length>. As a result, the class is not limited to DVDs --- you can of course typeset archives of CD-ROMs, Audio-CDs and so on. Supported languages at the moment: English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish.
The Euler fonts are suitable for typsetting mathematics in conjunction with a variety of text fonts that do not provide mathematical character sets of their own. Euler-VM is a set of virtual mathematics fonts based on Euler and CM. This approach has several advantages over immediately using the real Euler fonts. Most noticeably, less TeX resources are consumed, the quality of various math symbols is improved and a usable \hslash
symbol can be provided. The virtual fonts are accompanied by a LaTeX package which makes them easy to use, particularly in conjunction with Type1 PostScript text fonts. They are compatible with amsmath
. A package option allows the fonts to be loaded at 95% of their nominal size, thus blending better with certain text fonts, e.g., Minion.
This is a re-implementation, for LaTeX, of the original Harvard package. The bundle contains the LaTeX package, several BibTeX styles, and a Perl package for use with LaTeX2HTML.
Harvard is an author-year citation style (all but the first author are suppressed in second and subsequent citations of the same entry); the package defines several variant styles: apsr.bst
for the American Political Science Review; agsm.bst
for Australian government publications; dcu.bst
from the Design Computing Unit of the University of Sydney; kluwer.bst
, which aims at the format preferred in Kluwer publications; nederlands.bst
which deals with sorting Dutch names with prefixes (such as van) according to Dutch rules, together with several styles whose authors offer no description of their behaviour.
The package offers a set of PSTricks related packages for various cartographic projections of the terrestrial sphere. The package pst-map2d
provides conventional projections such as Mercator, Lambert, cylindrical, etc. The package pst-map3d
treats representation in three dimensions of the terrestrial sphere. Packages pst-map2dII
and pst-map3dII
allow use of the CIA World DataBank II. Various parameters of the packages allow for choice of the level of the detail and the layouts possible (cities, borders, rivers etc). Substantial data files are provided, in an (internally) compressed format. Decompression happens on-the-fly as a document using the data is displayed, printed or converted to PDF format. A Perl script is provided for the user to do the decompression, if the need should arise.
This Java command line application may be used to extract glossary information stored in a .bib
file and convert it into glossary entry definition commands. This application should be used with glossaries-extra.sty
's record package option. It performs two functions in one: it selects entries according to records found in the .aux
file (similar to BibTeX), and hierarchically sorts entries and collates location lists (similar to MakeIndex or Xindy). The glossary entries can then be managed in a system such as JabRef, and only the entries that are actually required will be defined, reducing the resources required by TeX.
The supplementary application convertgls2bib
can be used to convert existing .tex
files containing definitions (\newglossaryentry
etc.)#: to the .bib
format required by bib2gls
.
This package enables automated citation with BibTeX for legal studies and the humanities. In addition, the package provides commands for specifying editors in a commentary in a convenient way. Simplified formatting of the citation as well as the bibliography entry is also provided. It is possible to display the (short) title of a work only if an authors is cited with multiple works. Giving a full citation in the text, conforming to the bibliography entry, is supported. Several options are provided which might be of special interest for those outside legal studies--for instance, displaying multiple full citations. In addition, the format of last names and first names of authors may be changed easily. Cross references to other footnotes are possible. Language dependent handling of bibliography entries is possible by the special language field.
The package provides a Perl script that converts a .sty
file (LaTeX package) to .dtx
format (documented LaTeX source), by surrounding macro definitions with macro and macrocode environments. The macro name is automatically inserted as an argument to the macro environment. Code lines outside macro definitions are wrapped only in macrocode environments. Empty lines are removed. The script should not be thought to be fool proof and 100% accurate but rather as a good start to the business of making a .dtx
file from an undocumented style file. Full .dtx
files are generated. A template based on the skeleton file from dtxtut
is used. User level macros are added automatically to the Usage section of the .dtx
file. A corresponding .ins
file can be generated as well.
