| barcode2
|
| 2000/02/29 15:55:00
| Fonts and macros for making barcodes. In stores, upc and ean codes are widely used for automatic identification, pricing etc. ean consist of either eight or thirteen digits. Twelve digit upc codes are like thirteen digit ean with the first digit equal to zero. ean specifications do not only require bars, also the encoded number has to be written in plain text, in case a reader is defective or the code is too hard to read. ean is a high-density code, and so it is highly vulnerable.

| 1.1
| 2000/03/13 13:15:37
| Bibhtml consists of a Perl script and a BibTeX style file, which together allow you to compile a bibliography for 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 BibTeX style file is plainhtml.bst, and is derived from the standard plain.bst.

| 2000/02/29 15:55:00
| This style option is appropriate to create a typeset listing of a (possibly large) BibTeX input file. With such large files - especially, if the cite keys are long - the needed string space is often exceeded. Often a BigTeX is available to circumstance this problem, but with this style option each TeX will do it.

| bibtopic
| 1.0j
| 2002/09/15 16:03:56
| A LaTeX package to include several bibliographies covering different `topics' or bibliographic material into a document (e.g., one bibliography for primary literature and one for secondary literature). Provides commands to include either all references from a .bib file, only the references actually cited or those not cited in your document. You'll have to construct a seperate .bib file for each bibliographic `topic', which will have to be processed separately by BibTeX. If you want to have per-chapter bibliographies in a document, have a look at the packages bibunits or chapterbib instead.
|
| bibunits
| 2.2
| 2000/10/16 15:27:36
| A style to generate separate bibliographies for different units (parts) of the text (chapters, sections or bibunit-environments). The style will separate the citations of each unit of text into a separate file to be processed by BibTeX. The global bibliography section produced by LaTeX can also appear in the document and citations can be placed in both at the same time. The package is compatible with koma-script and frenchb.

| borceux
|
| 2000/02/29 15:55:00
| The Diagram macros realize the construction of diagrams as those appearing in category theory texts. The user gives the list of vertices and arrows to be included, just as when composing a matrix, and the program takes care of computing the dimensions of the arrows and realizing the pagesetting. All the user has to do about the arrows is precising their type (monomorphism, pair of adjoint arrows,\ldots) and their direction (north, south-east,...): 12 types and 32 directions are available; see figures~1 and 3 for exhaustive lists.

| breqn
|
| 2002/05/29 16:49:42
| The breqn package for LaTeX provides solutions to a number of common difficulties in writing displayed equations and getting high-quality output. For example, it is a well-known inconvenience that if an equation must be broken into more than one line, `left...right' constructs cannot span lines. The breqn package makes them work as one would expect whether or not there is an intervening line break. The single most ambitious goal of the breqn package, however, is to support automatic linebreaking of displayed equations. Such linebreaking cannot be done without substantial changes under the hood in the way math formulas are processed. For this reason, especially in the alpha release, users should proceed with care and keep an eye out for unexpected glitches or side effects.
