Firstly, I would quite like to have a thin + rule between my floats and my main text. Is there a package that will + do this? I am using the excellent caption package to put the text in + small and the _Figure 1.1_ in bold. Some of my captions are, however, + quite long and it would be nice to seperate them from the main text. + +I don't know of such a package, but there is a simple "hook" for this sort of +stuff in the LaTeX output routine - or at least there was in the LaTeX 2.09. +The following is taken from the 2.09 sources (yes, what I've got handy is +all antique): + +% \topfigrule : Command to place rule (or whatever) between floats +% at top of page and text. Executed in inner vertical +% mode right before the \textfloatsep skip separating +% the floats from the text. Must occupy zero vertical +% space. (See \footnoterule.) +% \botfigrule : Same as \topfigrule, but put after the \textfloatsep +% skip separating text from the floats at bottom of page. + +Unless changed, both of these are \let to \relax. + +For reference, here's \footnoterule from ARTICLE.DOC (slightly editted): + +\def\footnoterule{\kern-3pt + \hrule width .4\columnwidth + \kern 2.6pt} % The \hrule has default height of .4pt . + + Secondly, I have put my footnotes in seperate files which are then + incorporated into the main text using \input. (This is to make + counting words *not* including the footnotes easier). For some reason + this creates a larger than normal space after the footnotemark in the + main text which looks mighty ugly. I have made sure that there is no + extra space or lines after the end of the footnote in the \input file. + +It's hard to picture exactly what you are doing and where you might already +have explicit spaces. One quick possibility to try: The last line of your +\input file presumably ends with a newline, which as usual TeX treats as a +space. Try adding "%" as the last character. If this does it, but it's a +pain to edit all the separate footnote files, try putting \unskip just after +each \input - i.e., \input{somefoot.note}\unskip. + -- Jerry + +------------------------------ + +Date: Wed, 14 Jun 1995 23:40:17 -0800 +From: Donald Arseneau <asnd@erich.triumf.ca> +Subject: Re: Lines after figures and space after \input + +In TeXhax Digest V95 #11, Kris Lockyear writes: + +% Firstly, I would quite like to have a thin rule between my floats and +% my main text.

Braams" <J.L.Braams@research.ptt.nl> +Subject: Babel release 3.5 available now + + Hi, + + I am releived to finally be able to tell you that I have + finalized Babel release 3.5. + + What's new in release 3.5? + - Because of some of the major changes I made I have decided + to give the (formerly called) language-specific files a new + name: "language definition file". They also no longer have + the extension.sty but ".ldf". The consequence is that + \usepackage{english} no longer works, only the documented + syntax \usepackage[english]{babel} works. + - Completely changed the way babel deals with active + characters. They are now activated once and stay active for + the rest of the document, only their expansion + changes. There is still one problem with the approach: + active characters that take an argument (such as " in a lot + of languages) give errors what TeX finds the sequence "}. + - Active characters (or two letter combinations starting with + an active character) are now called shorthands. One can have + three levels of shorthands: user defined, language defined + and system defined. Active characters may be defined to take + an argument. + - Introduced an environment `otherlanguage' (with the name of + the language as argument) which acts like the + \selectlanguage declaration. Also introduced the command + \foreignlanguage, which takes two arguments. The arguments + are the name of the language and the (short) text from that + language. This command only switches hyphenation and + specials. + - Extended the syntax of language.dat for compatibility with + Bernard Gaule's french package. + - Each language definition file now tries to load a + configuration file (which has the same name, but extension + .cfg). + - Active characters are now written to auxiliary files + *verbatim* + - A language change now also writes information in the .aux + file as the change might also affect typesetting the table + of contents. The consequence is that an .aux file generated + by a LaTeX format with babel preloaded gives errors when + read with a LaTeX format without babel, but I think this + problaly doesn't occur. + - Babel can now be used together with both the inputenc and + fontenc packages. So far Babel only knows about T1 and OT1 + encodings, if it needs to know other encodings I would like + to hear it. + - A lot of code has been moved from language definition files + (note the new name for them I used to call them + language-specific files). This is caused by the rewrite of + the active character handling and by the implementation of + T1 support, + - A number of languages have been added to the distribution + (breton, estonian, irish, lower sorbian, scottish and + upper sorbian) + - More laguage definition files make characters active; + currently we have the following active characters: + ~ system, catalan, galician, spanish + : breton, francais, turkish + ; breton, francais + ! breton, francais, turkish + ? breton, francais + " catalan, danish, dutch, finnish, galician, german, polish, + portuguese, slovene, spanish, upper sorbian + ` catalan (when option activegrave is used) + ' catalan, galician, spanish (when option activeacute is used) + ^ esperanto + = turkish + - This releaseshould be compatible with plain TeX.I don not + know if it is Compatible with LaTeX 2.09 but I do not regard + that as important as LaTeX 2.09 is obsolete by now. But + making babel 3.5 run with plain TeX could also make it run + with LaTeX2.09 (not tested, no guarantees). + + The last remark: where can you get babel 3.5? + It is available from CTAN in the directory + /tex-archive/macros/latex/packags/babe. + + Happy LaTeXing! + + Johannes Braams + +PTT Telecom, P.O. box 30150, +2500 GD 's Gravenhage The Netherlands. +Phone : +31 70 3432037 E-mail : J.L.Braams@research.ptt.nl +Fax : +31 70 3432395 + + +------------------------------ + +Date: Mon, 03 Jul 1995 11:48:49 +0200 +From: eurotex-org@cs.ruu.nl +Subject: Eurotex'95 registration form + +This is the Eurotex'95 registration form in ASCII.
