Announcement text:


From the README

Changes (2024/01/26)

o memoir v3.8.2

-- In v3.8 I forgot to add some internal testing code related to
   \@startsection. The code experiment has now been added, but is not
   enabled by default.

-- Axel Sommerfeldt suggested a useful macro abstraction for
   sidecaption and sidecontcaption that simplifies his adjustments
   whenever the caption package is loaded.

-- Fixed a small (but important) typo in my maintainers note (Peter started
   memoir in 2001, not 2021)

-- The Nov-2023 kernel update gave issued with our version of \verb.
   Now fixed by un-embedding the verbatim package. Issue first
   reported by Andrew Swann.

-- Fixed a typo in \m@make@footnotetext where ##1 got interpreted as a
   macro name, not contents. Reported by Richard Zach.

-- Replaced the embedded copy of the shortvrb package by loading the
   package instead.

-- Replaced the embedded and modified copy of the verbatim package by
   just loading the package.

   Have chosen to *not* patch in the modification back in. Primarily
   because they are (1) disabled by default, (2) unknown how many
   users actually use them, (3) the implementation had errors.

   \setverbatimfont and the system to make comment-like envs of course
   stayed.

   The features removed are

   - marking tabs using several spaces
   - wrapping webatim text at white space

   Macros disabled

   - \tabson  (\tabsoff redef to do nothing)
   - \wrappingon (\wrappingoff redef to do nothing)

   No longer used

   - \verbatimbreakchar
   - \verbatimindent

   Removing the embedded verbatim copy also fixes the issue with
   \verb+a b+ behaving like \verb*+a b+.

   Many of the other verbatim-like creations have had tabs support
   removed

-- In verbatim 1.5x the macro \verbatiminput* has been altered
   slightly such that it also marks tabs as spaces (just like \verb*
   now also does via a kernel update). If 1.5x has not been released
   yet, we automatically apply that patch.

-- Updated \readverbatim* with the same patch as \verbatiminput* so it
   also marks tabs as spaces.



o memhfixc v1.22

-- The change Axel S. suggested in memoir removes the need for
   memhfixc to redefine \endsidecaption and \endsidecaption, thus
   those redefinitions have been removed.

 WORD OF ADVICE: It is not recommended to manually update memoir into
 an old LaTeX installation. Not all changes are compatible with older
 un-updated LaTeX systems and we often make no attempt to be backwards
 compatible. Instead we assume that users use updated memoir with an
 updated LaTeX installation.

 Changes (2023/08/08)

 o memoir v3.8

 -- now requires a LaTeX format from 2021/06/01 or newer.

The class will halt compilation (in all interaction modes) if the
format is too old.

 -- \titleref is now an alias for \nameref (autoloaded).
The class have been adjusted to provide info for sectionals and
normal captions.

The titleref package will remain marked as being emulated
as it shouldn't be used with the class (and haven't been updated in
20+ years).

 -- nameref paches in the class are no longer needed

 -- label handling for subcaptions and friends have been reimplemented.

 -- no longer re-defines \label as per request of the LaTeX Team.

 -- booktabs is now loaded as a required package instead of being
embedded

 -- Fixed typo in the caption of figure 2.13. Thanks to Vladimir
G. Ivanović for the report.

 -- removed etex loading (was only loaded for kernels from before
2015). The noetex class option removed as well.

 -- reimplemented \pagenumbering(*) as a single macro

 -- additions to \@xfloat is now done via a cmd/after hook if the
format version supports it.

 -- Definition of \theHpoem changed to \providecommand

 -- The \theH macros defined in memoir was modified to use
\the\value{counter} instead of just \arabic{counter} as some
packages change \arabic.

 -- \toclevel@part was actually never fixed in v3.7.19, now it is

 -- added \@currentcounter in various places that manually
set \@currentlabel (primarily footnote constructions).
Reported by Gustavo Barros.

 -- replaced hardcoded \footnotesize in \verbfootnote by \foottextfont

 -- made a small change to footnote formatting. Now one can use
\raggedright in \footnotetext to get raggedright footnotes. Use
with care as \raggedright does change various paragraph settings

 -- replaced etoolbox loading by xpatch (which loads etoolbox) as it
can patch more.

 -- Added a Hook named memoir/subcaption/aftercounter which is executed
after \refstepcounter in \subcaption, \subbottom, \subtop
etc. Requested by Gustavo Barros.

 -- Redefinition of \@setsize removed, was copied from setspace.sty
which states that it was only needed for some 209 packages.


 The following macros have been disabled (to either give a warning or
 an error).

 -- \namerefon and \namerefoff => warning (now always on)

 -- \currenttitle => error (given that many things are now "titled",
relying on this to get the current "title" is too risky, use proper
\label+\titleref instead)

 -- \theTitleReference => warning (was used in the old implementation
of \titleref and \currenttitle)


 o memhfixc v1.21

 -- All nameref patches have been removed
 -- provided \subfigureautorefname

 Maintenance update

 From the README:

 Changes (2022/11/17)

 o memoir v3.7.19

 -- changed version numbering to v3.7. (no plans to switch to 3.8
anytime soon)
 -- changed several \theH... definitions to \def to work better with
coming hyperref/tagging changes
 -- similar for \toclevel@... macros
 -- only declare \stockwidth and \stockheight if the kernel hadn't done
so already

 o memhfixc v1.20

longer used in memhfixc

Summary description: Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books

Announcement text:
--


Changed (2022/02/20)

o memoir v3.7q

-- Added memhfixc autoloading to memoir (via \AtEndPackage{hyperref}...), then 
the equivalent code can be removed from hyperref
-- now auto loads the etoolbox package in order to enable a future patching 
approach instead of overwriting kernel macros (nb: re-coding has not started 
yet)
-- changed definition of \medspace into \providecommand for better testing with 
older kernels
-- added some code to a hook provided by footmisc fixing a bug with the 
combination of memoir+footmisc+reledmac, especially the 2022 update of footmisc
-- fixed typo in manual regarding \setupmaintoc, see 
https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/602963/3929 for details.
-- The LaTeX team changed the order of the file/package hook names into a more 
precise scheme. \AtBegin/EndFile, \AtBegin/EndPackage, \AtBegin/EndClass 
changed accordingly


A note to class maintainers that use memoir as a base, and package 
maintainers that apply changes when memoir is loaded:

In future updates memoir will start to use a more patch/hook based 
approach to working with kernel macros instead of overwriting. This will 
give the kernel developers more room for the big changes that are coming 
to the kernel. We are not going to change any official memoir API macros, 
but internals may change.

Given that the LaTeX kernel now have most parts of xparse build it, we 
might even start using some of those tools (who knows).

-- as of late 2020 the caption package will now adjust it self to the

License:  lppl1.3

Summary description:  Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books

Announcement text:
--

 In preparation for the LaTeX format/kernel update (2020/10/01) several
 class hook features have been changed to use these new features, see
 the manuals for lthooks, ltfilehook, ltshipout for details on these
 new hooks.

 Thus from the 2020/10/01 LaTeX forward onwards we have the changes
 below. Until 2020/10/01 the new format can be tested via
 e.g. pdflatex-dev

 -- trimmarks are now added via the shipout/background hook, and is
labeled memoir/trimmarks

See the ltshipout manual for more details.

 -- \AtBeginFile{filename}{code} and \AtEndFile{filename}{code} are now
implemented via the file/before/filename and
file/after/filename hooks.

**Breaking change:** In the old implementation of
\AtBegin/EndFile{file}: if file is a `.tex` file, then one could use
\AtEndFile{test}{code} to add code at the end of inputting
`test.tex`. Now you will have to use \AtEndFile{test.tex}{code}.

See the manual for ltfilehook for more details.

 -- \AtBeginPackage{name}{code}, \AtEndPackage{name}{code} and
\RequireAtEndPackage{name}{code} are now implemented via the
package/before/name and package/after/name hooks.

 -- \AtBeginClass{name}{code}, \AtEndClass{name}{code} and
\RequireAtEndClass{name}{code} are implemented via
class/before/name and class/after/name

 -- the redefinition of \trimmarks inside the definition of \quarkmarks
have been removed

 -- Whenever the caption package is loaded, memoir will reset it self
so the caption package can take over. We issue some information to
the user at this point. In this update we have changed this
information from a class warning to a class info as the warning
confused a lot of users.

2019-11-16 Thread CTAN Announcements
Lars Madsen submitted an update to the

memoir

package.

Version number: 3.7i 2019-11-15
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books

Announcement text:
--

From the README: 

o memoir v3.7i

-- indexes now uses protection when being moved from the aux to the
   idx file(s)

-- changed loading ifpdf, ifetex, ifxetex and ifluatex to just loading
   the new iftex package. Suggested by The LaTeX Support Team.

-- new feature for \createmark: the  variable now accepts:
   nonumber, shownumber and notitle (implies shownumber). The latter
   enables chapter headers to be just of the form "Chapter "

-- By request, added a7paper and b7paper options (plus \stockavii,
   \stockbvii, \pageavii and \pagebvii)

-- changed the header construction for tableofcontents and
   friends. The anchor that hyperref will use for TOC, LOF etc entries
   in the TOC will now point above the header not below it.

-- changed a few things in \subbottom, which hopefully fixes an issue
   with hypcap, https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/440399/3929 (and
   https://github.com/ho-tex/oberdiek/issues/42)

-- the handling of \absindent, \absparsep is now correctly described in
the manual (any changes of these of use of them has to be delayed to
the start of the document via \AtBeginDocument)

-- Updated the patched \InputIfFileExists to match the one used in the
   2019/10/01 format (if using that format, we use the old version)

-- Updated the embedded copy of the booktabs package, bringing it in
ling with booktabs v1.6180339.

-- Changed the warning emitted at the start of loading the caption
   package. Apparently users got spooked by it. The caption package
works just fine with with memoir, the warning is just there to remind
users that once the caption package is loaded, all caption related
configurations should go through the caption package interface, not
through the class interface.

-- Fixed a bug in \lofmark and \lotmark when using the oneside option.
The default headings style uses \markright for all marks under oneside,
but due to an ordering mistake, \lofmark and \lotmark would still be
using \markboth unless you explicitly issued \pagestyle{headings} in
the preamble. This is now fixed.

-- fixed bug in \newfootnoteseries, the included footnote type did not
support more than one paragraph. Is now long.

-- fixed bug in \pagenote[...]{...}. Under hyperref
   \pagenote{.}\pagenote[.]{.}{\pagenote{.} did not add a separator as
   expected. It does now.


o memhfixc v1.18

-- added a \par to \contcaption to get rid of a sporadic space coming
   from \refstepcounter under hyperref

-- additionally added a patch when hypcap is loaded, now using
   \contcaption is no longer an error (hypcap looks to see if \caption
   has been used)

CTAN update: memoir

2018-12-13 Thread CTAN Announcements
Lars Madsen submitted an update to the

memoir

package.

Version number: 3.7h 2018-12-12
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books

Announcement text:
--


From the README

Changed (2018/12/12)

o memoir v3.7h

-- The following packages are no longer embedded into the class
   sources: array, delarray, dcolumn and tabularx.

   These are all part of the _tools_ section of every LaTeX
   installation, thus there is no reason to embed it anymore (let
   alone keep track of when they are updated). Instead we require them
   from the LaTeX installation.

   Note that the class still makes its own defaults for some of the
   default settings for these packages.

   Historical note: When the class was first created updating LaTeX
   was not an easy task, often done by hand. Also there was no manual
   requirements, or if there were a manual it might not be easy to
   find. So it made sense to have it all in one place and their
   manuals added to the class manual. This usage information in the
   manual will stay, but might no longer be 100% up to date, so users
   are always referred to the package manuals.

   We may remove more embedded packages in the future and replace them
   with just require the distribution provided ones.

-- remembered to note \pagerefname when dealing with page notes.

-- fixed bug in inline toc entries in the manual when there are subitem
   that are not typeset and hyperref is in use (\endlinechar=-1 around
   the toc), also noted in the manual that this problem may occur and
   how to deal with it.

   One might argue that \endlinechar=-1 should be the default thenever
   the ToC are being typeset.

-- Added \SingleSpacing* which does *not* add a \vskip at the
   end. Also adjusted \SingleSpacing such that it does not emit a
   \vskip when used in the preamble. This fixes

CTAN update: memoir

2018-04-06 Thread CTAN Announcements
Lars Madsen submitted an update to the

package.

Version number: 3.7g 2018-04-04

From the README
Changed (2018/04/04)
o memoir v3.7g
-- is now using colorlinks hyperref option in the manual. We switched
it off year ago because some users were printing the
manual. Nowadays most is reading the manual online, and thus
colorlinks brings a better reading experience.
-- under hyperref \index{... |)} now also adds `|)hyperpage` to the
idx file. This is needed for xindy to process the idx
file. Makeindex does not seem to mind. Reported via private email.
-- added examples of the nine much overlooked \setpageXX macros, these
can be used instead of \settrimmedsize and \settrims to place a trimmed
page on the stock in nine often used configurations.
-- the way the class writes the pagesize to the output have been
rewritten and should now work with lualatex. Therefore we no longer
auto load the luatex85 package. We have also canceled \fixpdflayout
and \fixdvipslayout (they now just emit a warning)
-- the class will truncate certain layout lengths to a whole number of
point (e.g. \textwidth). This can now be disabled using the
fullptlayout class option, reported via
https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/372381/3929
-- in as of the release of TeXLive 2018 \counterwithin/out will be
added to the LaTeX kernel, we changed our version to use
\providecommand accordingly
-- removed loading the mempatch.sty package, it has been empty for
many years
-- now requiring ifpdf, ifetex, ifxetex and ifluatex packages to exist.
Earlier we attempted to emulate them if missing, this does not make
sense any more
-- started adding "Recommended alternative" blocks to the
manual. These are just mentioning more modern alternatives to what
ever is mentioned in the manual. Fx using tcolorbox instead of the
buildin framed env. Suggestions are welcome (by email)
-- added \titlingpageend{}{} which can be used to set the clearing
code at the end of the titlingpage env.
-- clearified the interaction between 14pt and extrafontsizes options
-- updating the embedded array and tabularx copies fixes
https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/411862/3929 (an issue with bidi)
-- dumped the emulated date for delarray to 2014/10/28 (the code,
after the array update) is the same
-- fixed a bad interaction in \subbottom when the showkeys and
hyperref is loaded. Reported via
https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/374301/3929
-- removed unnecessary \phansomsection from the thebiblipgraphy
setup. Reported via https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/396303/3929
-- added \nobreak to \@vslnumleft and @vslnumright (internal to
verse), reported via https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/415939/3929
-- added \phansomsection to \startnoteentrystart, otherwise \label in
\pagenote does not work correctly.
-- fixed a typo in \@listii where \itemsep is not pointing towards
\itemsepii, similar to the other \@listK macros.
-- fixed problem with \setfloatadjustment, font size changes did not
come through
