Author CTAN package update: Eplain 3.2 release
CTAN Announcements

2007-11-28, 7:23 pm

Oleg Katsitadze has provided a package which has been mirrored,
automatically, to CTAN. He writes:

I'm happy to announce a new release of Eplain (3.2), a set of TeX
macros that expands on and extends the definitions in plain TeX in a
"style-neutral" fashion. Eplain's home page is

http://tug.org/eplain

Location on CTAN is

/macros/eplain

The manual is available on-line from Eplain's home, or as a hard-copy
from

http://www.lulu.com/content/113810

(Royalties are donated to the TeX Users Group.)

Here's an excerpt from the NEWS file.

* Fixed a bug which caused silent indexing macros to output spurious
space in vertical mode.
* Added a switch to disable index file input/output.
* Fixed xref and bibliography label definition macros so that reading
in a .aux file with a large number of label definitions does not
overflow the save stack.
* Fixed double-column macros -- they were occasionally losing material
and producing columns too high to fit on a page. Also improved
appearance of the last column, which often came out spaced out.

==============

I've updated the catalogue, and the new version should be widely
available by now. Users may view the catalogue entry at
http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalog...ies/eplain.html
or browse the distribution at
http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/eplain/

Thanks for the continuing support of the package, Oleg.
