ctan_chk is a basic Gawk program that uses CTAN's published guidelines for authors to help eliminate sloppiness in uploaded files/projects. It is completely open for users to program additional guidelines as well as CTAN's future adjustments.
The package provides the means to directly reference items of lists nested in theorem-like environments (e.g., as Theorem 1 a). The package extends the ntheorem and cleveref packages. The package also provides other theorem markup commands.
The command-line programs pdfopen and pdfclose allow you to control the X Window System version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader from the command line or from within a (shell) script. The programs work with xpdf and evince.
The package introduces Subversion variants of the standard LaTeX macros \ProvidesPackage, \ProvidesClass and \ProvidesFile where the file name and date is extracted from Subversion Id keywords. The file name may also be given explicitly as an optional argument.
In some cursive scripts such as Persian or Arabic, kashida is used to create justification. In this type of justification characters are elongated rather than expanding spaces between words. This package extends the kashida justification to be used with the LuaTeX engine.
The package makes eqnarray environment behave like align from amsmath. It is intended for quick-fixing documents that use eqnarray. In cases where it fails, manual conversion to align is required, but these cases should be seldom.
Endheads provides running headers of the form Notes to pp. xx-yy for endnotes sections. It also enables one to reset the endnotes counter, and put a line marking the chapter change in the endnotes, at the beginning of every chapter.
The package allows the drawing of Euclidean geometric figures using TeX PSTricks macros for specifying mathematical constraints. It is thus possible to build point using common transformations or intersections. The use of coordinates is limited to points which controlled the figure.
The package contains StarFontSans and StarFontSerif, two astrological fonts designed by Anthony I.P. Owen, and the appropriate macros to use them with TeX and LaTeX. The fonts are supplied both in the original TrueType Format and in Adobe Type 1 format.
The package provides a very simple LaTeX document template, in the hope that this use of LaTeX will become attractive to typical word processor users. (Presentation is as if it were a class; users are expected to start from a template document.)
The bundle provides two packages, readprov and myfilist. The readprov package provides a means of reading file information without loading the body of the file. The myfilist package uses readprov and controls what \listfiles will report.
The package enables the user to typeset programs (programming code) within LaTeX; the source code is read directly by TeX---no front-end processor is needed. Keywords, comments and strings can be typeset using different styles. Support for hyperref is provided.
This LaTeX2e package makes it possible to add timing marks to lecture notes in order to help managing the time available for presenting a given section of the document. It also provides tools to record and estimate the progress throughout the course.
This package provides a small class for typesetting letters in France. No assumption is made about the language in use. The class represents a small modification of the beletter class, which is itself a modification of the standard LaTeX letter class.
The package implements the \Ucharcat command for LuaLaTeX. \Ucharcat is a new primitive in XeTeX, an extension of the existing \Uchar command, that allows the specification of the catcode as well as character code of the character token being constructed.
MakeCirc is a MetaPost library that contains diverse symbols for use in circuit diagrams. MakeCirc offers a high quality tool, with a simple syntax. MakeCirc is completely integrated with LaTeX documents and with other MetaPost drawing/graphic. Its output is a PostScript file.
This package balances the columns on the last page of a two-column document. If the page is simple (no footnotes, floats, or marginpars), it uses the balance package; otherwise, it uses \enlargethispage to make the left column shorter, balancing the columns.
The package aims to help a LaTeX author to keep track of all defined labels by typesetting a complete list of labels wherever the author requests it. (Of course, the user may need to have additional LaTeX runs to get the references right.)
The package has a lot of flexibility, including an option for specifying an entry at the natural width of its text. The package is distributed with the bigdelim and bigstrut packages, which can be used to advantage with \multirow cells.
The package checks references in a document, looking for numbered but unlabelled equations, for labels which are not used in the text, for unused bibliography references. It can also display label names in text near corresponding numbers of equations and/or bibliography references.
The package provides a means of storing a project, without losing anything. It uses the embedfile package to attach to the generated PDF all files used in creating your project. In particular, it can embed images, external TeX files, and external codes.
This is a package for formatting captions of column figures and column tabular material, which cannot be standard floats in a multicols environment. The package also provides a convenient way to customise your captions, whether they be in multicols or not.
The cjhebrew package provides Adobe Type 1 fonts for Hebrew, and LaTeX macros to support their use. Hebrew text can be vocalised, and a few accents are also available. The package makes it easy to include Hebrew text in other-language documents.
The package provides management of the CJK category code table of the upTeX extended TeX engine. Package options are available for tailored use in the cases of documents that are principally written in Japanese, or principally written in English or other Western languages.
