+News! News! And still more News! Maybe it's a sign of the excitement
+which the Annual Meeting generates, but there has been an avalanche of
+news releases and announcements crossing my screen these days. Things
+I've had no room for include:
+
+\begin{itemize} \itemsep=-2pt
+ \item the {\sl Textures} 1.6 release
+ \item Arbortext and Solaris 2.x for \TeX\ users
+ \item Bernard Gaulle has announced a new release of {\tt

+ \item Timothy van Zandt has a new release of {\small PST}ricks out,

+ \item and here's a last-minute arrival: a July release of

+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent Question: should we be mentioning new releases in \ttn? What
+do you think? People who cruise the newsgroups read about them all the
+time: it seems a reasonable thing to bring some of those announcements
+here to \ttn. What sorts of things do you want to know about?
+
+\vspace{1pc}
+
+We have a list of the conference presentations as they are currently
+known, and we have a list of the courses and instructors for the week
+before, and the week after the conference itself. Lots is happening,
+that's for sure! And remember to bring some discs if you want to copy
+some of the updates/upgrades to software from the fabulous Aston
+Archive.

+\Section{Typographer's Inn}
+
+\subsection*{Well-versed}
+
+The late Brian O'Nolan (Flann O'Brien), writing his satirical
+column {\em Cruiskeen Lawn\/} (as Myles na gCopaleen) in the {\em
+Irish Times\/} in the 1930s commented:
+
+\begin{quotation}
+ \noindent Having considered the matter in---of course---all its
+ aspects, I have decided that there is no excuse for poetry.
+ Poetry gives no adequate return in money, {\em is expensive to
+ print by reason of the waste of space occasioned by its form\/},
+ and nearly always promulgates illusory concepts of life. [My
+ italics]
+\end{quotation}
+%
+Several times I have been asked to help with the formatting of poetry.
+There are several `{\tt poem.sty}' files around, but none of them seem
+to tackle the fundamental problem of coping with overlong lines. The
+poet, untrammelled by having to consider such mundane factors as
+typography, quite rightly expects the printer to make as decent a shot
+as possible at reproducing the poem, but all too often the `printer'
+is nowadays an inexperienced {\small DTP} operator, with scant
+knowledge of typographic practice.
+
+It is particularly evident when setting in short measures, but the
+only satisfactory solution I have been able to come up with is the
+following kind of layout (this is a verse of a hymn which had to be
+set in 10/11\ts pt to $12\frac12\,$pc):
+
+\smallskip
+
+\newcount\plines
+\begingroup\tenrm\baselineskip=11pt\hsize=12.7truepc
+\leftskip=1in\advance\hsize by1in
+\everypar={\global\advance\plines by1
+ \ifodd\plines\else\quad\fi}
+\obeylines%
+{\tenbf 6}\hskip.5em And in the garden secretly,
+And on the cross on high,
+Should teach his brethren, and
+To suffer and to die.\quad [inspire
+\par\endgroup
+
+\medskip
+
+\noindent What I haven't been able to find is the way to get \TeX\ to
+do this by itself. The usual pint of Guinness at Aston for the first
+solution. I should mention that when there is insufficient space at
+the end of the next line, and if there {\em is\/} sufficient space at
+the end of the {\em preceding\/} line, then the excess word should be
+brought up to the preceding line! The alternate indenting is handled
+by the code:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newcount\plines
+\everypar={\global\advance\plines by1
+ \ifodd\plines\else\quad\fi}
+\obeylines%
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+so this extra space also needs to be taken into account.
+
+Curiously, as I was in the middle of writing this, a question about
+verse formatting was posted to {\tt comp.text.tex}, so it would be
+nice to come up with some answers.
+
+\subsection*{When is an em not an em?}
+
+Talking of {\tt comp.text.tex}, there has been a debate recently about
+the size of an em. A user wanted to know how big an em was, and if
+that size was related to the current point size of type. Once the
+confusion was settled over the separate meaning of a pica em (always
+12\ts pt, regardless of what type you are setting in: this is \TeX's
+`pc' unit of measurement), it became obvious that there is substantial
+disagreement, or at least misunderstanding, over the term
+`em'.\footnote[1]{And there we have a classical example of where to
+put the punctuation. Presumably the {\small MLA} would prefer me to
+finish the sentence with `em.'}
+
+Historically, an em was the width of a capital `M' (approximately,
+anyway). As more and more type designs deviated from this, it became
+necessary to fix the value at some standard: normally 1\ts em is the
+same as the current pointsize: that is, if you are setting in 8\ts pt
+type, then the instruction `leave 1\ts em space' means `leave 8\ts pt
+space'. Anyone who has ever set metal type knows this from the fact
+that an em quad is a square-section slug of typemetal of side $x\,$pt,
+where $x$ is the typesize in points.
+
+\newbox\embox \newdimen\emwidth
+\setbox\embox=\hbox{\tenbf\hbox to1em{\hfill}}
+\emwidth=\wd\embox
+%
+However, \MF\ does not obey this convention: if you process the
+following code, you will find that the width of what \MF\ claims
+is 1\ts em in {\tt cmbx10} is actually \the\emwidth.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newbox\embox \newdimen\emwidth
+\setbox\embox=\hbox{\tenbf\hbox to1em{\hfill}}
+\emwidth=\wd\embox
+\showthe\emwidth
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+I'm not sure why it does this: I have never found a use for it, and
+have always had to be explicit when writing macros to make sure that
+if the typographer's spec says `Chapter Number in 8/9\ts pt Times
+Bold, run in 2\ts em to Chapter Title in 8/9\ts pt Times Roman' that
+the result leave exactly 16\ts pt between CN and CT, otherwise the
+client will be upset.
+
+Can anyone shed some more light on this? Perhaps it's some devious and
+hidden difference between typographical practice in North America and
+in English-speaking parts of Europe.
+
+\subsection*{Fonts}
+
+I've just managed to get a real PostScript laser printer near me: up
+until now I've been making do with Ghostscript for drafts and trusting
+to a well-tried local typesetter for repro pulls and camera-ready. I
+still think the default interletter spacing on the Adobe fonts is too
+tight. I don't have a copy of ATF Garamond, but if anyone out there
+can lay their hands on a specimen book, and measure an alphabet, I'd
+be glad of the opportunity to compare it with the one sold by Adobe.

+\subsubsection*{Introduction}
+
+At the conference in Portland last year, Christina Thiele asked me if
+I was willing to write an article for \ttn\ about quotation marks.
+She said that she suspected that there would be many people out there
+who would want to know how to produce quotation marks in a little
+piece of, say, French text that they include in their document that is
+otherwise written in English. All this is of course covered in the
+Babel language-specific style files, but for those who don't want to
+use Babel but do need the occasional quotation mark I wrote this
+article.
+
+Let me start with a disclaimer: I am not familiar with all the
+typographic conventions that are in use in the various countries all
+over the world. Also I can only give you macros for those languages
+for which a language-specific Babel file exists. So, there may be more
+conventions. If you know of them, please inform me, so that I can
+enlarge my collection.
+
+Yet another disclaimer: If you have access to fonts with the {\small
+DC/EC} (or Cork) encoding, you do not need most of the hackery in this
+article. Those fonts include the necessary characters, so they need
+not be constructed.
+
+The first part of this article\footnote[1]{When the source of this
+ article is run through \LaTeX\ it produces a file called {\tt
+ quoting.tex} which contains all the code that is described and
+ used in the article.} deals with the macros needed to typeset the
+quotation marks needed for various languages. First, I'll introduce
+some internal hackery, then the macros that really produce quotation
+marks. I also give some shortcuts to make the macros easy to use.
+Finally, I will give some examples of the use of the macros. In the
+examples, I will show the source text as well as the typeset result.
+
+\subsubsection*{Some help macros}
+\startgather{quoting}
+
+Because the macros in this part of the code are not intended for use
+in a document, we'd like to `hide' them from the user. Usually this is
+done by changing the category code of a character with category code
+`other' to a letter. More often than not the `@' is chosen for this
+purpose. Sometimes the underscore is used for this purpose as well.
+Here I too will use the `\_'. Of course the category code needs to be
+reset later so we store the current value in \verb=\uscatcode=:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+ \chardef\uscatcode=\catcode`\_
+ \catcode`\_=11\relax
+\end{code}
+
+In some languages we need to lower quotation marks to the baseline.
+For this purpose we use the macro \verb=\set_low_box=. It has one
+argument and uses \verb=\box0= to gives us its result. This macro
+comes from {\tt german.tex}.
+
+It firsts typesets a comma in box register~2 and its argument in box
+register~1. Then it computes the distance that the argument has to be
+lowered to reach the baseline. Finally, it lowers the contents of box
+register~0 --- using box register~0 again for the result --- and
+adjusts the values for the height and depth of the box:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def\set_low_box#1{\setbox2\hbox{,}\setbox0\hbox{#1}%
+ \dimen0\ht0 \advance\dimen0 -\ht2%
+ \setbox0\hbox{\lower\dimen0 \box0}\ht0\ht2 \dp0\dp2}
+\end{code}
+
+Using macros for quotation marks sometimes disturbs the spacefactor,
+so we also need a macro to preserve it. This macro also stems
+from {\tt german.tex}. It first checks if it is executed in horizontal
+mode; if that is the case, the current spacefactor is stored in the
+macro \verb=\_SF=. Outside horizontal mode the macro \verb=\_SF= is
+empty. Then \verb=\save_sf_q= typesets its argument and resets the
+spacefactor:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def\save_sf_q#1{{\ifhmode
+ \edef\_SF{\spacefactor\the\spacefactor}\else
+ \let\_SF\empty \fi \leavevmode #1\_SF}}
+\end{code}
+
+\subsubsection*{Producing the quotation marks}
+
+In languages such as Dutch, German and Czech, the opening quotes are
+traditionally typeset at the baseline:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def\loq{\protect\_loq}
+\def\_loq{\save_sf_q{\set_low_box{''}\box0\kern-.04em}}
+\end{code}
+
+In German, the closing quotes are also different from what is provided
+by \TeX. They use something that looks like the Eglish opening quotes
+as closing quotes. Obviously, if one didn't do anything about it, the
+spacing would be wrong. Therefore we need yet another macro,
+\verb=\icq=:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def\icq{\protect\_icq}
+\def\_icq{\save_sf_q{\kern-.07em``\kern.07em}}
+\end{code}
+
+In French typography, a very different kind of quote mark is used, the
+so-called `guillemets'. To realise these guillemets, various macros have
+been floating around the net. According to the {\tt french.sty}
+package by Bernard Gaulle, one of the oldest definitions is:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def\oog{\protect\_oog}
+\def\_oog{\leavevmode\ifdim\lastskip>0pt\unskip
+ \penalty-9\hskip0.35em minus 0.35em\fi
+ \raise .27ex\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\ll$}%
+ $\,$\nobreak\ignorespaces}
+\def\ocg{\protect\_ocg}
+\def\_ocg{\leavevmode\ifdim\lastskip>0pt\unskip
+ \penalty10000\fi
+ \nobreak$\,$\leavevmode
+ \raise .27ex\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\gg$}}
+\end{code}
+
+\noindent But this does not {\em really} give the result that the
+French would like. Therefore, if you have access to the \LaTeX\ symbol
+fonts it is better to use the following definition for the guillemets:
+
+\vspace{-3pt}
+\begin{code}
+\chardef\lg='050
+\chardef\rg='051
+\def\og{\protect\_og}
+\def\_og{\hbox{\ly\lg\kern-0.2em\lg\kern+0.2em}}
+\def\cg{\protect\_cg}
+\def\_cg{\hbox{\ly\kern+0.2em\rg\kern-0.2em\rg}}
+\end{code}
+
+In the code above the control sequence \verb=\ly= is used. It is an
+internal macro from the old font selection scheme in \LaTeX. When you
+use the \nfss\ you will have to define it this way:
+
+\vspace{-3pt}
+\begin{code}
+\ifx\undefined\selectfont
+\else
+ \def\ly{\fontfamily{lasy}\fontseries{m}
+ \fontshape{n}\selectfont}
+\fi
+\end{code}
+
+\subsection*{Easy usage}
+
+In the previous section a couple of macros have been defined to make
+it possible to use various quotes. But it would be nice if one didn't
+have to do so much typing each time they were used. To provide easy
+access, it is common use in language-specific files to introduce
+active characters. For the macros presented here, we could introduce
+three active characters, the {\tt "}, {\tt <} and the {\tt >}:
+
+\vspace{-3pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def\dq{"}\catcode`\"=\active
+\def\lt{<}\catcode`\<=\active
+\def\gt{>}\catcode`\>=\active
+\end{code}
+
+\noindent As you may have noticed, I saved a copy of the non-active
+version of each character in a control sequence. These are needed
+later on, when the active character has inspected its argument and
+decides that it needs to insert the non-active version of itself.
+
+We use the active {\tt"} to access the low opening quotes and the
+German closing quotes; the other two are used to produce the
+guillemets. Here is the definition of the active characters:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}
+\def"#1{\ifx#1`\loq{}\else
+ \ifx#1'\icq{}\else\dq#1
+ \fi\fi}
+\def<#1{\ifx#1<\ifmmode\lt\lt\else\og{}\fi\else\lt#1\fi}
+\def>#1{\ifx#1>\ifmmode\gt\gt\else\cg{}\fi\else\gt#1\fi}
+\end{code}
+
+But, be careful when introducing new active characters. You have to
+make sure that they get deactivated at the right moment. Therefore, we
+need to add them to macros such as \verb=\dospecials= and --- in case
+you use \LaTeX\ --- \verb=\@sanitize=. A safe way of doing this was
+found by Bernd Raichle. It involves using an extra macro
+\verb=\add_special=:
+
+\vspace{-6pt}
+\begin{code}

+\squashedsubsection{More on margin marks}
+ {Klaus Lagally \\
+ University of Stuttgart \\
+ \tt lagally@informatik.uni-stuttgart.de}
+
+Here are a few comments on ``Marking lines in the margin'', \ttn~1,3
+p.\,12 and \ttn~1,4 p.\,10, by Peter Schmitt.
+
+The macros as given will inhibit hyphenation. This can be corrected
+by redefining:
+
+\vspace{-3pt}
+\begin{verbatim}
+\long\def\readword#1 {#1\strut\putmark\space\next\relax}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+If the margin mark is a \verb"\vrule" of sufficient height and depth
+the \verb"\strut" is no longer necessary, not even at the beginning of
+a paragraph, as \TeX\ will now be in horizontal mode anyway.
+
+How to redefine \verb"\putmark" to get the mark into the right margin
+is left as an exercise to the interested reader.
+
+
+\squashedsubsection{Correct spacing for tables and arrays}
+ {Claudio Beccari \\
+ Politecnico di Torino \\
+ \tt beccari@polito.it}
+
+\noindent Every \LaTeX\ user knows how to insert vertical spacing in
+tables, arrays and equation arrays by means of the optional argument
+of the \verb"\\" command. I suppose that most users do not like to
+explore the inner depths of \LaTeX, so that it is possible that
+some users do not realize that the \verb"\\" command behaves quite
+differently in equation arrays compared with tables and arrays.
+
+In the {\tt eqnarray} environment (with or without asterisk) the
+\verb"\\" command with an optional argument --- a dimension given in
+square brackets --- actually inserts that vertical space in addition
+to the default row spacing defined by the format file (in fact this
+default spacing is given by the \verb"\jot" dimension, which is
+defined in {\tt lplain.tex}, not in {\tt book}, {\tt report}, {\tt
+article}, or {\tt letter}, nor in the size-related subsidiary files);
+of course, anybody can assign this \verb"\jot" a different value, but
+most users simply don't do it.
+
+The \verb"\\" command optional argument behaves in a different way in
+the {\tt tabular} and {\tt array} environments; this optional argument
+is used to increment the depth of the strut that implicitly is
+inserted in the first cell of every row and in the only cell produced
+by means of the \verb"\multicolumn" command. Therefore it is
+impossible or difficult to control vertical spacing after every
+\verb"\hline" and \verb"\cline" command, and after those rows that
+contain at least one cell whose depth is greater than the implicit
+strut depth.
+
+With the set of \LaTeX\ or plain \TeX\ predefined commands, in the
+first case there is no workaround, except, perhaps, inserting a whole
+row of empty cells, which may result in too much white space. In the
+second case, it is possible to proceed empirically until one finds the
+right amount of extra space to insert as the optional argument to the
+\verb"\\" command. In any case, if you try to modify the implicit
+strut dimensions by redefining \verb"\arraystretch", you end up with a
+table or an array that contains too much white space.
+
+Both cases, on the other hand, may be dealt with very nicely if some
+new struts are defined and inserted in the right places (in addition
+to the implicit strut) in order to control the vertical space very
+finely. In my tables and arrays I generally use the following two
+struts, but in special cases I might define several similar invisible
+objects:
+%
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newcommand\T{\rule{0pt}{2.6ex}} % Top strut
+\newcommand\B{\rule[-1.2ex]{0pt}{0pt}} % Bottom strut
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+The `top strut' ensures that its row is at least 2.6ex high; the
+`bottom strut' ensures that it is at least 1.2ex deep.
+
+Compare the following two ruled tables; you will notice in the second
+one that horizontal rules are not too close to capital letters and
+that fractions (even if they are set in textstyle and are therefore
+smaller than usual) do not require guesswork in order to keep them at
+a reasonable distance from the following rule:
+%
+\begin{center}
+ \begin{tabular}[t]{|c|c|l|}
+ \hline
+ \multicolumn{3}{|c|}{Laplace transforms}\\\hline
+ $f(t)$ & $(p)$ & no struts \\\hline
+ $\delta(t)$ & $1$ & optional arg.\\[.5ex]
+ $\cos\omega_0t$ & $\frac{p}{p^2+\omega_0^2}$ & \\\hline
+ \end{tabular}
+\qquad
+ \newcommand\T{\rule{0pt}{2.6ex}} % Top strut
+ \newcommand\B{\rule[-1.2ex]{0pt}{0pt}} % Bottom strut
+ \begin{tabular}[t]{|c|c|l|}
+ \hline
+ \multicolumn{3}{|c|}{Laplace transforms\T\B}\\\hline
+ $f(t)$ \T & $(p)$ \B & with struts \\\hline
+ $\delta(t)$ & $1$ \T & optional arg.\\[.5ex]
+ $\cos\omega_0t$ & $\frac{p}{p^2+\omega_0^2\B}$ & \\\hline
+ \end{tabular}
+\end{center}
+%
+Notice that a bottom strut in the second table is inserted in the
+denominator of the fraction, not to the side of the fraction,
+otherwise its extra space would be masked by the fraction depth.
+
+The second table is obtained with the following commands:
+%
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newcommand\T{\rule{0pt}{2.6ex}} % Top strut
+\newcommand\B{\rule[-1.2ex]{0pt}{0pt}} % Bottom strut
+\begin{tabular}[t]{|c|c|l|}
+ \hline
+ \multicolumn{3}{|c|}{Laplace transforms\T\B}\\\hline
+ $f(t)$ \T & $(p)$ \B & with struts \\\hline
+ $\delta(t)$ & $1$ \T & optional arg.\\[.5ex]
+ $\cos\omega_0t$ & $\frac{p}{p^2+\omega_0^2\B}$ & \\\hline
+\end{tabular}
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+The \verb"\\" command optional argument is used after the third row,
+because it does not contain oversized cells; otherwise, it would be
+better to control vertical spacing with struts only.
+
+Instead of locally defining the top and bottom struts, as done in the
+example, it is possible to put the definitions in the preamble, or,
+even better, to define a command that defines them, so that the
+definition may be kept local to a particular environment or group:
+%
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newcommand\setTBstruts{\def\T{\rule{0pt}{2.6ex}}%
+ \def\B{\rule[-1.2ex]{0pt}{0pt}}}
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+so that it is possible to get them to work with a simple call to
+\verb"\setTBstruts" only where it is needed.

+
+\makeatletter
+\def\labeq#1{\def\@currentlabel{#1}\label{#1}$$}
+\def\elabeq{\eqno{\mbox{(\@currentlabel})}$$}
+\makeatother
+
+Sometimes you want to give one or two of the main results of your
+paper a name. If the result is in the form of an equation, you might
+want it to be labeled by the name you gave it instead of by a number.
+The following four lines define two new commands, \verb"\labeq" and
+\verb"\elabeq", that produce a labeled equation for which you choose
+the label. You can also refer to it later by its label or its
+page number. The equation does not use up an equation number:
+if the equation before the labeled equation is number $n$, the
+equation after the labeled equation will be number $n+1$.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+\makeatletter
+\def\labeq#1{\def\@currentlabel{#1}\label{#1}$$}
+\def\elabeq{\eqno{\mbox{(\@currentlabel})}$$}
+\makeatother
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\noindent You would use it like this:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+\labeq{MAIN}
+x^2+y^2=z^2
+\elabeq
+\end{verbatim}
+which would print as
+\labeq{MAIN}
+x^2+y^2=z^2
+\elabeq
+
+You could refer to it by writing
+\begin{verbatim}
+See equation~(\ref{MAIN}) on page~\pageref{MAIN}.
+\end{verbatim}
+This would print as ``See equation~(\ref{MAIN}) on
+page~\pageref{MAIN}.'' Note that you must put the parentheses in
+yourself.
+
+This definition is a genuine hack since it depends on internal \LaTeX\
+code that is not guaranteed to be the same in future revisions.

+(as defined in Lamport's \LaTeX\ book and Patashnik's document
+``\BibTeX ing''). A Hyper\BibTeX\ bibliography stack can be created
+either by manually making new cards or by importing an existing {\tt

+simply export selected cards from the stack to a {\tt .bib} file and
+process it with \BibTeX. Hyper\BibTeX\ has facilities for searching,
+sorting, marking cards and data validation.
+
+Hyper\BibTeX\ requires HyperCard version 2; version 2.1 is recommended
+because of its superior error handling. It should run fine under
+System 6, but the Balloon Help facility requires System 7. It also
+runs under HyperCard Player.
+
+Hyper\BibTeX\ version 0.9.7, released on 3 May 1993, is an upgrade
+that fixes various bugs (including a serious bug in version 0.9.5) and
+adds a number of new improvements and features. If you are presently

+
+\def\CTAN{{\small CTAN}}
+\def\DANTE{{\small DANTE}}
+
+\noindent The \tug\ Technical Working Group on \TeX\ Archive
+Guidelines ({\small TWG-TAG}) was established with the mandate of
+``develop[ing] guidelines for the effective management and utilization
+of major \TeX\ archives, and to initiate communication among the
+maintainers of the existing archives for the purpose of coordination
+and synchronization.''
+
+The result of this effort has been the creation and development of the
+Comprehensive \TeX\ Archive Network (\CTAN). In cooperation with
+\DANTE's archive at Stuttgart and the \uk\ \TeX\ Users Group's archive
+at Aston, Sam Houston State University (Huntsville, Texas, {\small
+USA}) joins in what is very possibly the largest coordinated archive
+of file offerings available for network-based retrieval. The goal of
+the \CTAN\ is to have available comprehensive archives of \TeX-related
+files (sources, macros, utilities, drivers, pre-packaged complete sets
+for given operating systems, etc.) within parallel directory and
+filename structures accessible by common user interfaces. Within a
+very brief time lag, the holdings at one \CTAN\ host should be
+precisely the same as on any other \CTAN\ host. Moreover, the
+interface, command syntax and available local commands to assist users
+should be the same regardless of which host you are connected to.
+
+Each \CTAN\ host updates its collection with files and packages
+submitted for archiving, and places them into the pre-established
+directories within the \CTAN\ structure. From there, they are passed
+along to the other \CTAN\ hosts as they mirror one another on a daily
+basis. Additionally, each of the \CTAN\ hosts may serve as a point of
+entry for contributions directly uploaded to it, which will then be
+passed along to the other hosts in the network.
+
+As noted in the preliminary announcement for the upcoming \tug\
+meeting, the \CTAN\ is a topic which will receive wide coverage, as
+well as demonstrations for those interested. Presently, the Internet
+File Transfer Protocol (\ftp) interfaces for anonymous use are
+parallel between \CTAN\ hosts; eventually electronic mail interfaces
+to the \CTAN\ archives will also be parallel (and reported as soon as
+feasible). For users with \ftp\ client access, you are welcome to
+view and use any of the established hosts:
+
+\begin{center}
+ \begin{tabular}{ll}
+ Host Name & Base \CTAN\ Directory \\
+ \hline

+ \end{tabular}

+complete electronic mail address as your password). Beyond these base

+\subsection*{How can I get an indent after a sectioning command?}
+
+Sectioning commands all use a construction called
+\verb|\@startsection|, which is defined in {\tt latex.tex}.
+Let's take a look at it (I've numbered the lines for explanatory
+purposes):
+
+{\small
+\begin{verbatim}
+1.\def\@startsection#1#2#3#4#5#6{\if@noskipsec \leavevmode \fi
+2. \par \@tempskipa #4\relax
+3. \@afterindenttrue
+4. \ifdim \@tempskipa <\z@ \@tempskipa -\@tempskipa \@afterindentfalse\fi
+5. \if@nobreak \everypar{}\else
+6. \addpenalty{\@secpenalty}\addvspace{\@tempskipa}\fi \@ifstar
+7. {\@ssect{#3}{#4}{#5}{#6}}{\@dblarg{\@sect{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}{#5}{#6}}}}
+\end{verbatim}
+}
+
+On line 4 at the end, see the \verb|\@afterindentfalse| command. That
+says that after the section header is typeset, no indent is allowed in
+the first paragraph. To allow the indent, copy the above command to a
+separate file (say, {\tt commands.sty}) in the same directory as the
+document on which you are working. Now change
+\verb|\@afterindentfalse| to \verb|\@afterindenttrue|. Last, make
+sure you call {\tt commands.sty} {\em after\/} all other style files
+are called, and --- voil\`a!

+
+\subsection*{How do I get an abstract in the right place in \LaTeX{}
+ using\nl
+ {\tt$\backslash$maketitle}?}
+
+This is actually a trick question. Using the \verb|\maketitle|
+command depends on having a {\tt titlepage} environment. In addition,
+the {\tt titlepage} environment only exists in the {\tt article} and
+{\tt report} document styles. Here's the general structure (taken
+from Lamport, page 164\footnote[2]{Leslie Lamport: {\sl\LaTeX: A
+Document Preparation System, User's Guide \& Reference Manual\/},
+Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-15790-X.}):
+

+\begin{titlepage} % Start of Titlepage area
+ \title{Title of article or report}
+ \author{Author 1\thanks{Acknowledgement of support 1.}
+ Company of Author 1\\

+ Text of abstract.
+\end{abstract}
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+Let's tackle this step by step.
+
+\vspace{-3pt}
+\begin{description} \itemsep=-2pt
+ \item{\verb|\begin{titlepage}|} This starts the environment.
+
+ \item{\verb|\title{Title}|} This does the obvious. In a long
+ title, you can use the \verb|\\| command to tell \LaTeX{}
+ where to begin a new line.
+
+ \item{\verb|\author{Author(s)}|} Obvious.
+
+ \item{\verb|\and|} When there are multiple authors, this command
+ goes between each (you don't have to --- it's a matter of style:
+ you could simply type \newline
+ \verb|\author{Author 1, ..., and Author n}|).
+ In addition, if each author has an address you wish to
+ specify, typeset it as in the above example, with \verb|\\|
+ to start new lines where appropriate. In the above example,
+ each author will be centered with the corresponding address
+ and will look something like this (only larger because they're
+ authors):%%
+ \begin{center}
+ \parbox[t]{2in}{\centering
+ Author 1\\ [-1pt]
+ Address of Author 1\par}
+ \parbox[t]{2in}{\centering
+ Author 2\\ [-1pt]
+ Address of Author 2\par}\par
+ Author 3\\ [-1pt]
+ Address of Author 3
+ \end{center}
+ \vspace{-3pt}
+
+ \item{\verb|\thanks{}|} This command puts important information
+ in a footnote at the bottom of the titlepage. Note that the
+ footnote uses symbols ($\fnsymbol{xyz}$,
+ \stepcounter{xyz}$\fnsymbol{xyz}$,
+ \stepcounter{xyz}$\fnsymbol{xyz}$ \ldots ,
+ \addtocounter{xyz}{6}$\fnsymbol{xyz}$), not numbers, to
+ differentiate them from footnotes in the main text.
+
+ \item{\verb|\date{}|} This command puts a date you specify into
+ the titlepage and is optional. If you leave it out, \LaTeX{}
+ will put in today's date. You can specify {\em no\/} date by
+ typing \verb|\date{}|.
+
+ \item{\verb|\end{titlepage}|} Ends the {\tt titlepage} environment.
+
+ \item{\verb|\maketitle|} This command tells \LaTeX{} to put
+ together the titlepage. If this isn't in the document, the
+ titlepage doesn't get typeset. Remember to put it {\em
+ after\/} the {\tt titlepage} environment: otherwise the
+ abstract goes before the titlepage on a separate page!
+
+ \item{\verb|\begin|$\ldots$\verb|\end{abstract}|} The abstract goes
+ here. It will be typeset in a smaller typeface than normal text.
+
+ \item{\bf The {\tt titlepage} style.} This is only necessary in the
+ {\tt article} document style as the {\tt report} document
+ style automatically pulls {\tt titlepage.sty} in (and {\tt
+ book} and {\tt letter} document styles don't use {\tt
+ titlepage}). This option specifies that the titlepage and
+ abstract go on separate pages.
+\end{description}
+
+
+\subsection*{How do I change the line spacing?}
+
+\LaTeX{} has the construction \verb|\baselinestretch| which is
+used with \verb|\renewcommand| in the following manner:
+
+\vspace{-2pt}
+\begin{enumerate} \itemsep=-2pt
+ \item In the preamble, use
+ \verb|\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}|{\tt\{{\it num}\}}
+ where {\it num\/} is a whole number ($-1$ works, but
+ anything less has the same effect).
+
+ \item After the preamble, the above command only works {\it
+ after\/} a typesize change, so you need to use something like
+ this:\vspace{-4pt}
+ \begin{center}
+ \verb|\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{|{\it
+ num}\verb|}\large\normalsize|
+ \end{center}
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\noindent Plain \TeX{} has the length \verb|\baselineskip| and is used
+as follows:
+
+\vspace{-3pt}
+\begin{center}
+ \verb|\baselineskip=|{\it num$_1$}{\tt plus{\it num$_2$} minus {\it
+ num$_3$}}
+\end{center}
+%
+where {\it num$_1$} is the amount of skip you want (12pt skip with
+10pt text), {\it num$_2$} is the amount it can stretch (3 or 4pt), and
+{\it num$_3$} is the amount it can shrink (1 or 2pt). These {\tt
+plus} and {\tt minus} options are necessary so \TeX{} can break pages
+without overfull or underfull messages appearing. Another general
+query is double-spacing; while a 24pt baselineskip is technically
+``double-spaced'', the appearance can be much improved by using a skip
+of only 80\% over single spacing. In a case of 10pt text, try a skip
+of 20pt and see if that's acceptable.

+\squashedsubsection{NTG's Lustrum Meeting}
+ {Kees van der Laan \\
+ Chairman, \small NTG}
+
+On June 10th, the \NTG\ had its first Lustrum (fifth anniversary)
+meeting at {\small KNMI} De Bilt. Some 60 members (about 25\% of the
+membership) attended the meeting, which was held under beautiful
+weather. A message entitled ``Congratulations from \TUG'' was read
+aloud on behalf of Christina Thiele, who could not attend the meeting.
+The \NTG\ board underwent some changes: Johannes Braams was
+re-elected, and Erik Frambach joined the board as a new member,
+replacing Theo Jurriens, all by acclamation. Theo Jurriens was
+thanked for his all-too-short presence on the board, and one of his
+ideas was realized at this meeting: to pay special attention to the
+Flemish members. Philippe Vanoverbeke has accepted the task of \NTG's
+Belgian commissionar. This function is informal for the time being.
+Some formal issues were discussed during the ``Other business''.
+
+A walk through \NTG's history lane was presented by Kees van der Laan,
+interactively, meaning that attendees could introduce their own
+appreciations of the past or their visions about the future. For the
+most recent past, Frans Goddijn gave the speaker some rest by
+announcing \NTG's bulletin board, prepared and maintained by Henk de
+Haan and himself.\footnote[1]{A Dutch article on the issue appears in
+MAPS93.1, pp.~31--36.} My own vision on the future did not concentrate
+so much on the future of \TeX, but more on the production and
+consumption of information by the community at large, and \TeX's role
+in this, next to other tools to be expected to develop.
+
+After the busy lunch --- there is always much to talk about, to page
+through, etc.\ --- we had our meat: Huib van Krimpen, a famous Dutch
+typographer, and Frank Blokland, a coming man in font design. We also
+had our own contributions: Rein Smedinga about his experience in
+preparing a book via \LaTeX, and instead of the announced Theo
+Jurriens, who could not make it, Johannes Braams presented a paper he
+and Walter van der Laan (no relation) had presented at the \tug'92
+meeting at Portland: `Writing reports with more than a hundred
+people''. \c Ca va sans dire, that this was an excellent program, and
+we all enjoyed it very much. Frank Blokland decided on the spot to
+become a member of \NTG, because \TeX, etc.\ intrigued him so much,
+and he --- with his professional craftsman background --- expects to
+learn a lot from the other side.\footnote[2]{If not we from him.}
+
+The speakers got a big hand for their fine contributions. The
+president invited the attendees to extend this to the editorial team,
+the working groups for their fruits during the past five years, and to
+the board and the membership for the achievements we have made. The
+host was thanked for their kind hospitality, and that it was a bit
+overdone --- to make up for those high temperatures outside. Enough
+heat was on already. We finished up with an informal lustrum drink,
+and the traditional dinner with the speakers, and members to hang on.

+ {Barbara Beeton \\
+ for the Elections Committee}
+
+The terms of all 15 members of the first elected Board of Directors
+will expire on December 31, 1993. The election to choose the new
+Board members will be held this fall, and nominations are invited.
+
+The Bylaws provide that ``Any member may be nominated for election to
+the Board by submitting a nomination petition in accordance with the
+\tug\ Election Procedures. Election of the directors shall be by
+written mail ballot of the entire membership, carried out in
+accordance with those same Procedures. Each director will hold office
+for a term of two (2) years. Directors may be re-elected for
+successive terms.''
+
+The name of any member may be placed in nomination for election to
+this office by submission of a petition, signed by two other current
+(1993) members, to the \tug\ office at least 30 days prior to the
+election. A petition form follows this announcement; forms may also
+be obtained from the \tug\ office and will be available at the annual
+meeting, to be held this year at Aston University, Birmingham, \uk.
+
+Along with a petition form, each candidate is asked to supply a
+passport-size photograph, a short biography, and a statement of intent
+to be included with the ballot; the biography and statement of intent
+together may not exceed 400 words. The deadline for receipt at the
+\tug\ office of petitions and ballot information is {\bf September 1,
+1993}.

+nominee. {\bf Type or print} names clearly, exactly as they appear in
+the most recent \tug\ membership list or on a \tug\ mailing label; new

+
+Some changes have been proposed in the structure of the Board and the
+terms of Board members. As most Board members attend the annual
+meeting, and making arrangements to attend meetings at other times of
+the year is often difficult, it has been proposed that the term be
+shifted so that the terms of outgoing members end, and those of new
+members begin, with the annual business meeting. This arrangement
+should assure a smooth transition, with both old and new members able
+to attend at the same time.
+
+A second proposed change would alter the lengths of some terms for one
+time only, so that not all members of the Board are replaced at the
+same time, but only one-third. For Board members elected this year,
+it would mean that five will have terms that end with the 1995 annual
+meeting, five with the 1996 annual meeting, and five with the 1996
+annual meeting. Thereafter, all new terms will be for three years.
+All positions will be elected this year on the same basis, and the
+members of each of the three groups chosen by lot by the disinterested
+person or organization whose services are procured to count the
+ballots and certify the results.
+
+Subject to approval by the present Board at their annual meeting,
+these new procedures will be in effect for the upcoming election.
+
+Ballots will be mailed to all members about 30 days after the close
+of nominations. Marked ballots must be received no more than 6 weeks
+following the mailing; the exact date will be noted on the ballots.
+
+Ballots will be counted by a disinterested party not part of the \tug\
+organization. The results of the election should be available by the
+end of November.

+ {Jackie Damrau \\
+ for the Conference Planning Committee}
+
+We are soliciting the membership for volunteers to host our annual
+meetings. The meeting this year in Birmingham, England is our first
+meeting outside of North America, and hopefully will enable many more
+European members to attend the annual meeting. In keeping with this
+approach, we would like to promote a meeting sequence in which
+meetings would occur in a different area of the world each year, thus
+giving all \tug\ members an opportunity to attend an annual meeting
+periodically without undue expense. It is our hope that members from
+different countries will volunteer.
+
+What is the process for deciding where meetings will be held? The
+committee solicits bids from members, and submits proposals to the
+\tug\ Board, who make the final decision.
+
+What is involved? Using the recorded experience of past conference
+organizers, the committee has compiled a minimal checklist for
+volunteers to complete and return to the committee for an initial bid
+to host a meeting. Along with this checklist, the committee plans to
+provide organizers a summary of tips --- a sort of ``things to do''
+and ``things to avoid''.

+ \vspace{.5pc}
+ the \TeX\ Users Group}
+\end{center}
+
+\vspace{.5pc}
+
+{\small
+\begin{enumerate}
+ \item {\bsl Publications:\/}\quad
+ All members receive {\bf 4} copies of {\sl TUGboat\/}, The
+ Communications of the \TeX{} Users Group; {\bf 4} copies of
+ {\sl \TeX\ and TUG NEWS\/} (\ttn); and a membership
+ directory. One of the four {\sl TUGboat\/} issues contains
+ the proceedings of the annual meeting, so if you can't make
+ the meeting, you can still keep up to date with the latest
+ developments. As well, \tug\ publishes special single-topic
+ items in its {\sl \TeX niques\/} series; some are guides and
+ summaries of \TeX\ and \LaTeX; others offer descriptions of
+ major software packages (e.g., \PiCTeX, EDMAC).
+%
+ \item {\bsl Books and Software:\/}\quad
+ A ``one-stop shop,'' \tug\ carries most \TeX{} macro packages as
+ well as \TeX{} publications and products. The Radel collection
+ of public domain \TeX{} software for microcomputers is now
+ available through \tug, too. Members benefit from a 10\%
+ discount on all items available from \tug.
+%
+ \item {\bsl Membership Networks:\/}\quad
+ \tug\ maintains and distributes a complete membership directory
+ annually. Members are listed alphabetically, geographically and
+ by institution. These lists facilitate easy member-to-member
+ communication within \tug's worldwide network.
+%
+ \item {\bsl Information Referrals:\/}\quad
+ \tug\ can connect you with site coordinators --- specialists in
+ implementations of \TeX{} on various computer architectures ---
+ as well as other resource volunteers. These experts are available
+ to answer your questions about \TeX{}, \TeX-related software and
+ other technical matters.
+%
+ \item {\bsl Annual Meetings:\/}\quad
+ \tug's Annual Meetings bring \TeX{} users together to learn the
+ latest in \TeX{} applications and innovations through seminars,
+ talks and informal gatherings. They offer an opportunity to
+ connect with other \TeX{} users at every level. Each conference
+ is informative, but always informal and friendly --- the perfect
+ forum for valuable interaction and exchange of ideas on \TeX{}.
+%
+ \item {\bsl \TeX{} Worldwide:\/}\quad
+ When you belong to \tug\ you connect with other \TeX{} user
+ associations around the world. Information about their
+ activities is published regularly in \ttn; reciprocal membership
+ arrangements are available with some of the European groups.
+%
+ \item {\bsl \TeX{} Training:\/}\quad
+ Each year \tug\ offers seminars and classes for beginner,
+ intermediate and advanced \TeX{} users throughout North
+ America and Europe. \tug\ will customize on-site courses to
+ meet your company's specific needs.
+%
+ \item {\bsl Discounts:\/} \mbox{}\\
+ $\triangleright$\ Discounted Annual Meeting fees \nl
+ $\triangleright$\ Student rates for membership ({\bf 50\% off
+ individual rates!}) \nl
+ $\triangleright$\ Discounts on the purchase of selected \tug\
+ publications \nl
+ $\triangleright$\ Discounts on \tug-sponsored courses
