CTAN update: SemanTeX
Sebastian Ørsted submitted an update to the SemanTeX package. Version number: 0.512 2021-08-10 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Semantic, keyval-based mathematics Announcement text: -- Keys like "upper -", "lower -", "-" etc. have been removed; those were previously aliases of "upper slot", "lower slot", "slot" etc. The reason for the removal of these is that it causes confusion when you want to use a minus sign as in index, as in "\vy[-]". Furthermore, due to a previous, failed find-and-replace operation, keys like "lower *" were accidentally called "lower **", while what was supposed to be "lower **" was really called "lower ***". The error was not present in the "upper" equivalents of these keys. -- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/semantex More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/semantex Thanks for the upload.
