The package enables the user to keep track of different versions of a LaTeX document. The command \version prints the version and build numbers; each time you compile your document, the build number is increased by one. By placing \version in the header or footer, each page can be marked with the unique build number describing the progress of your document.
The class enables composition of letters fitting into Swiss C5 & C6/5 windowed envelopes. No assumption is made about the language used. The class is based on the standard LaTeX classes and is compatible with the LaTeX letter class. It is not limited to letters and may be used as a generic document class; it is used with the chextras package.
This package provides commands \alphalph and \AlphAlph. They are like \number but the expansion consists of lowercase and uppercase letters respectively (1 to a, 26 to z, 27 to aa, 52 to zz, 53 to ba, 702 to zz, 703 to aaa, etc.). Alphalph's commands can be used as a replacement for LaTeX's \@alph and \@Alph macros.
This package provides TeX macros for converting Adobe Font Metric files to TeX metric and virtual font format. Fontinst helps mainly with the number crunching and shovelling parts of font installation. This means in practice that it creates a number of files which give the TeX metrics (and related information) for a font family that TeX needs to do any typesetting in these fonts.
Graphbox is an extension of the standard graphicx LaTeX2e package to allow the placement of graphics relative to the ``current position'' using additional optional arguments of \includegraphics. For example, changing the vertical alignment is convenient for using graphics as elements of (mathematical) formulae. Options for shifting, smashing and hiding the graphics may be useful in support, for example, of the Beamer framework.
CBcoptic is a bundle of files for typesetting Coptic philological text with the proper fonts and hyphenation. The fonts are based on, but much extend, the fonts of the original coptic bundle. The CBcoptic bundle includes font description files, Metafont sources and equivalent Adobe Type 1 fonts in PFB format. The bundle also includes a package that provides some macros of philological interest.
The package provides several file hooks (AtBegin, AtEnd, ...) for files read by \input, \include and \InputIfFileExists. General hooks for all such files (e.g., all \included ones) and file specific hooks only used for named files are provided; two hooks are provided for the end of \included files --- one before, and one after the final \clearpage.
The package provides a means of ensuring consistent quote marks throughout your document. The style can be changed either via package option or command, and the package detects language selections (from the babel or ngerman packages), and uses the punctuation marks appropriate for the current language.
The author now considers the package obsolete, and recommends use of csquotes in its place.
This package provides an interface to sectioning commands for selection from various title styles, e.g. for marginal titles and to change the font of all headings with a single command, also providing simple one-step page styles. It also includes a package to change the page styles when there are floats in a page. You may assign headers/footers to individual floats, too.
Nassi-Shneiderman charts are a well known tool to describe an algorithm in a graphical way. The package offers some macros for generating those charts in a LaTeX document. The package provides the most important elements of a Nassi-Shneiderman charts, including processing blocks, loops, mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. The charts are drawn using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference).
This package provides some simple macros which will pad numbers (or, indeed, any expanded token) with your choice of character (defaulting to 0) to your choice of number of places (defaults to 2). This works not only on Arabic numerals, but on any expanded list of tokens passed to it. This makes it suitable for, among other things, counters of all kinds.
This package enables the usage of classes as packages. It was originally designed for the l3doc class, which is employed for documenting LaTeX code with numerous useful features. However, employing the l3doc class as a package is not convenient when using the developing class as the style for the document. Therefore, this package provides a simple interface for utilizing classes as packages.
The Domitian fonts are an OpenType font family, based on the Palatino design by Hermann Zapf (1918-2015), as implemented in Palladio. Domitian is meant as a drop-in replacement for Adobe's version of Palatino. It extends Palladio with small capitals, old-style figures and scientific inferiors. The metrics have been adjusted to more closely match Adobe Palatino, and hinting has been improved.
The Cherokee script was designed in 1821 by Segwoya. The alphabet is essentially syllabic, only 6 characters (a e i o s u) correspond to Roman letters: the font encodes these to the corresponding roman letter. The remaining 79 characters have been arbitrarily encoded in the range 38-122; the cherokee package provides commands that map each such syllable to the appropriate character.
This package provides various different formats for the text created by the command \today, and also provides commands for displaying the current time (or any given time), in 12-hour, 24-hour or text format. It overrides Babel's date format, having its own library of date formats in different languages. This package is now obsolete and has been replaced by datetime2.
Many of David Carlisle's more substantial packages stand on their own, or as part of the LaTeX latex-tools set; this set contains: making dotless j characters for fonts that don't have them; a method for combining the capabilities of longtable and tabularx; an environment for including plain TeX in LaTeX documents; a jiffy to create slashed characters for physicists.
The package facilitates wrapping text to a specific character width, breaking lines by words rather than, as done by TeX, by characters. The primary use for these facilities is to aid the generation of messages sent to the log file or console output to display messages to the user. Package authors may also find this useful when writing out arbitrary text to an external file.
This package contains a collection of symbols for typesetting Sequential Function Chart (SFC) diagrams in agreement with the international standard IEC-61131-3/2013. It includes steps (normal and initial), transitions, actions and actions qualifiers (with and without time duration). It extends the circuit library of TikZ and allows you to draw an SFC diagram in same way you would draw any other circuit.
The package used to provide macros that emulated the colour stack functionality of Dvips. The colour stack deals with colour manipulations when asynchronous events (like page-breaking) occur. For current releases of pdfTeX, this package is not needed, since real colour stacks are available. It has therefore become empty stub that does nothing at all, just in case there are still documents that reference it.
The everysel package provided hooks whose arguments are executed just after LaTeX has loaded a new font by means of \selectfont. It has become obsolete with LaTeX versions 2021/01/05 or newer, since LaTeX now provides its own hooks to fulfill this task. For newer versions of LaTeX everysel only provides macros using LaTeX's hook management due to compatibility reasons.
The package provides a set of macros based on PSTricks to draw medical pedigrees according to the recommendations for standardized human pedigree nomenclature. The drawing commands place the symbols on a pspicture canvas. An interface for making trees is also provided. The package may be used both with LaTeX and PlainTeX. A separate Perl program for generating TeX files from spreadsheets is available.
The package allows you to input (subsections of a) file, print them in verbatim mode, while automatically breaking up the input lines into pieces of a given length, which are output as figures. These figures are posted using the [H] specification, which forces LaTeX to place the figure at the spot of invocation, rather than floating the figures to the top of the next page.
The bundle provides three packages:
texlinks: shorthand macros for TeX-related external hyperlinks withhyperref, theblogpackage in the present bundle, etc;hypertoc: adjust the presentation of coloured frames inhyperreftables of contents (articleclass only);blog: fast generation of simple HTML by expanding LaTeX macros, using thefifinddopackage.
Martin Vogel's Symbol font (marvosym) contains the Euro currency symbol as defined by the European commission, along with symbols for structural engineering; symbols for steel cross-sections; astronomy signs (sun, moon, planets); the 12 signs of the zodiac; scissor symbols; CE sign and others. The package contains both the original TrueType font and the derived Type 1 font, together with support files for TeX (LaTeX).
