CTAN Update: nicetext

2010-03-23 Thread CTAN Announcements 
On Tue, 23 Mar 2010 Uwe Lück submitted an update to the

  nicetext

package.

Summary description: `makedoc' + `niceverb' - an alternative documentation 
system for LaTeX
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
--
The `nicetext' bundle offers minimal markup syntax for 
restricted kinds of text: There should not be much more 
characters typed than printed! -- mainly: quick 
documentation of (smaller) LaTeX packages -- achieved by 
active characters and preprocessing similar to 
`docstrip' (opposite direction however, incl. some txt 
to TeX).

New with release 0.3:

* `substr.tex' should typeset LaTeX quality 
documentation from next available (on your install) 
substry.sty's ASCII/UTF-8 input (works with me) -- first 
application of `niceverb''s auto mode and 
`makedoc.sty' to a third-party package!
  
* `makedoc' simplified: single 

  \MakeInputJobDoc[in][out]{header}{parser} 
  
  generates a documentation file from the package file 
and typesets it immediately (kind of \DocInput 
equivalent) -- see `Using makedoc the simplest way' in 
`makedoc.pdf'
  
* `|...|' from `niceverb' typesets an inline frame box 
for setting-off a command description, modifiable by 
hooks (e.g., \colorbox)
  
* `niceverb' syntax works in page headers, PDF 
bookmarks, and `hyperref' labels and otherwise much 
better than before, dis-/re-enableable featurewise as 
well as altogether
  
* documentation extended, lists of script commands 
  
* configurable txt to TeX functionality or other 
replacements like ASCII-arrows to arrow commands or 
inserting \index entries (setting up expandable 
replacement chains slightly more comfortable) -- try 
with templates and dialogue
   
* `fifinddo' works with character codes  127, improved 
setup

* `makedoc' requires the `moreverb' package.

CTAN Update: nicetext (fifinddo makedoc)

2009-04-20 Thread CTAN Announcements 
On Thu, 16 Apr 2009 Uwe Lück submitted an update to the 

  nicetext package.

Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/nicetext/
Summary description: string substitution and txt-TeX by LaTeX (documenting 
packages)
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
--

The NICETEXT bundle offers ``minimal'' markup syntax for restricted
kinds of text: There should not be much more characters typed than 
printed! (though keeping LaTeX quality.) No more backslashes, 
technical terms, and curly braces! (so clumsy on PC keyboards) ...

Main focus now is easy *documentation of LaTeX packages*. 
Preprocessing by 'Perl' or so is replaced by TeX macros 
(reviving/generalizing the 'docstrip' idea). 

'fifinddo.sty' provides setup for txt - TeX preprocessing macros 
including *expandable* sequences of safe, correct string substitions. 
'fifinddo.pdf' mathematically characterizes wrong substring 
detection by 'substr.sty' as well as by LaTeX's internal `\in@'. 
 
There is a script language for detecting package code and 
documentation and for supplying plain text with
typographical markup ('makedoc.sty', 'mdcorr.cfg').
