The package is built for use with PSTricks. It provides macros for plotting and manipulating various mathematical functions:

• polynomials and their derivatives,

• Fourier sums,

• the Bessel function defined by its order;

• the Gauss function defined by sigma and mu,

• Bezier curves from order 1 (two control points) to order 9 (10 control points),

• the superellipse function (the Lame curve),

• Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind,

• the Thomae (or popcorn) function,

• the Weierstrass function,

• various integration-derived functions: normal, binomial, poisson, gamma, chi-squared, student's t, F, beta, Cauchy and Weibull distribution functions and the Lorenz curve,

• the zeroes of a function, or the intermediate point of two functions,

• the Vasicek function for describing the evolution of interest rates,

• implicit functions.

The plots may be generated as volumes of rotation about the X-axis, as well.

The keyfloat package provides a key/value user interface for quickly creating figures with a single image each, figures with arbitrary contents, tables, subfloats, rows of floats, floats located here, floats in the margin, and floats with text wrapped around them. Key/value combinations may specify a caption and label, a width proportional to \linewidth, a fixed width and/or height, rotation, scaling, a tight or loose frame, an \arraystretch, a continued float, additional supplemental text, and an artist/author's name with automatic index entry. When used with the tocdata package, the name also appears in the list of figures. Floats may be placed into a row environment, and are typeset to fit within the given number of columns, continuing to the next row if necessary. Nested sub-rows may be used to generate layouts such as two small figures placed vertically next to one larger figure. Subfloats are supported by two environments.

The NCCtools bundle contains many packages for general use under LaTeX; many are also used by NCC LaTeX. The bundle includes tools for:

• executing commands after a package is loaded;

• watermarks;

• counter manipulation;

• improvements to the description environment;

• hyphenation of compound words;

• new levels of footnotes;

• space-filling patterns;

• poor man's Black Board Bold symbols;

• alignment of the content of a box; use comma as decimal separator;

• boxes with their own crop marks;

• page cropmarks;

• improvements to fancy headers;

• float styles, mini floats, side floats;

• manually marked footnotes;

• extension of amsmath;

• control of paragraph skip;

• an envelope to the graphicx package;

• dashed and multiple rules;

• alternative techniques for declarations of sections, captions, and toc-entries;

• generalised text-stretching;

• generation of new theorem-like environments;

• control of the text area;

• centered page layouts;

• un-numbered top-level section.

This package provides a set of bibliography tools. It includes:

• aux2bib, a Perl script which will take an .aux file and make a portable .bib file to go with it;

• bibify, a shell script that will optimize away one pass of the LaTeX-BibTeX cycle, in some cases;

• bibkey, a shell script that finds entries whose keyword field matches the given keys (uses sed and awk);

• cleantex, a shell script to tidy up after a LaTeX run;

• looktex, a shell script to list entries that match a given regexp;

• makebib, a shell script to make an exportable .bib file from an existing (set of) .bib file(s) and an optional set of citations (uses sed);

• printbib, a shell script to make a DVI file from a .bib file, sorted by cite key, and including fields like keyword, abstract, and comment;

• bib2html, a Perl script that makes a browsable HTML version of a bibliography (several .bst files are supplied);

• and citekeys, a shell script that lists the citation keys of a .bib file.

The bundle collects packages and classes, along with one bibliography style and examples and scripts for converting TeX files. Many of the files in the collection are designed to support field biologists and/or Russian writers, while others have wider application. The collection includes:

• add2, a quick way to fit as many as possible into one page, which is good for handouts.

• altverse, for typesetting verses.

• autolist, a means to define various sorts of list.

• biokey, providing flexible identification key tables in LaTeX. It implements straightforward macros to typeset sets of biological identification keys. Layout is flexible, and the macros will be useful in other disciplines.

• biolist, to list observed species. It offers pretty formatting of species lists of flora and fauna.

• boldline, for heavier lines in tables. The package provides commands replacing \hline and \cline, as well as a table preamble element that generates heavy lines.

• cassete, to print labels for audio cassettes.

• classif2, for biological classification tables. The package defines an environment classif that simplifies the process of typesetting classification tables.

• dline, for a double line on the left of text.

• drcaps, for simple dropped capitals. The package offers simple macros for dropped capitals, in a couple of forms.

• etiketka, a class for typesetting business-card-sized information (including business cards).

• flower, for typesetting lists of flower formulas.

• isyntax, which interactively checks LaTeX file syntax.

• numerus, for spelling numbers in Russian words.

• punct: within italicized text, punctuation is still straight, this is typographically more aesthetic.

• qqru, providing universal quotation marks, for Russian and English.

• rusnat, a bibliography style file, now deprecated.

• sltables, which simplifies tables for LaTeX. These macros develop the concepts of the stables, which are designed to offer table macros whose use is as simple as one might hope. Some would claim that LaTeX's built-in table specifications are as simple as one might hope, but this package offers many short-cuts and optimization of the mechanisms of tables.

• starfn, for stars as footnote marks.

• textfrac, for simple slanted fractions.
