******************************************************************
*** ***
*** Changes from ednotes.sty v0.64 to v1.0 ***
*** ***
*** (Uwe Lueck, 2004/10/21) ***
*** ***
******************************************************************
* SUMMARY: *
Since August 2004, the number of bundle files has been reduced.
Many of the remaining files have changed, some essentially,
others with respect to usage instructions. We explain how to
update your Ednotes installation accordingly. Optional
"patches", enhancements etc. that earlier had to be called by
loading separate files explicitly (mandatory arguments of
\usepackage) are now called by ednotes.sty package options
(optional arguments in \usepackage[<opt>]{ednotes}). New PDF
documentations/instructions have appeared.
* Contents of this file: *
LN/MF_edn.zip -- ednotes/lineno/manyfoot/further changes --
updating procedure -- new documentations
* Some files you may have received: *
You may have received (by e-mail from us, e.g.) a distribution
containing files
LN_edn.zip
MF_edn.zip
They serve two purposes:
1. They contain the files README and CHANGES that reside in the
CTAN directories `[...]/lineno' and `[...]/ncctools' (from
which manyfoot.sty stems). In order to avoid that README and
CHANGES files overwrite each other, unzip them into separate
directories, and into another one than the README file (for
ednotes.sty) that you should have received as a plain text
file.
2. LEGAL, IMPORTANT:
The files README, manyfoot.dtx, and nccfoots.dtx contained in
MF_edn.zip are, by their copyright holder Alexander Rozhenko,
demanded to ACCOMPANY any (re)DISTRIBUTION of manyfoot.sty
and nccfoots.sty!
* ednotes.sty changes: *
1. ednotes.sty version 1.0 has new package options `edtable',
`longtable', `nolongtablepatch', `edmacpara',
`countoccurrences', and `mathnotes' for handling "patch" or
enhancement etc. files. None of these files should be loaded
through the mandatory argument of \usepackage any more. E.g.,
instead of \usepackage{edtable}, you now type
\usepackage[edtable,<further options>]{ednotes} .
(So -- one advantage aimed at -- you must no longer worry
about the correct order of loading extension packages.)
2. The above-mentioned option `nolongtablepatch' changes earlier
behaviour with respect to our longtable.sty patch file
ltabptch.sty, in avoiding an error message that otherwise
appears when ltabptch.sty is not present. This is convenient
when you deliberately want to avoid the patch. The error
message ensures that vertical spacing around a "longtable"
does not depend on the local TeX installation -- e.g., when
you send your source to a journal.
3. ednotes.sty has a new option `perpage' for making use of the
manyfoot.sty option `perpage' -- just see the Manyfoot
documentation for what it does. It requires perpage.sty,
which is available from [CTAN]/macros/latex/contrib/misc.
* lineno.sty changes: *
1. The new version 4.1 of lineno.sty makes former extension
files linenox0.sty, linenox1.sty, and lnopatch.sty obsolete.
Don't load them any more! (We have installed a reminder for
the case that you don't obey this rule.)
2. \firstlinenumber has slightly changed from its earlier
behaviour given by lnopatch.sty. See lineno.sty/tex/pdf.
* manyfoot.sty changes: *
The new version 1.7 of manyfoot.sty provides a command
\ExtraParaSkip to replace our earlier \MFparaxbuffer.
(See the new ednotes.sty documentation to recall
\MFparaxbuffer -- search for `\ExtraParaSkip', e.g.)
This makes former extension file mfparxsp.sty obsolete.
Please replace \MFparaxbuffer by \ExtraParaSkip and don't
load mfparxsp.sty any more! For your earlier documents that
contain \usepackage{mfparxsp}, we offer a new version of
mfparxsp.sty which just reminds you of the change and
("for this time") redirects your \MFparaxbuffer to
\ExtraParaSkip. You may as well just delete your copy of
mfparxsp.sty, if you are sure, e.g., that you won't anymore
compile a .tex containing \MFparaxbuffer and
\usepackage{mfparaxbuffer}.
* Further corresponding changes: *
Extension files that still are used -- now required by the new
ednotes.sty package options -- have been changed at least with
respect to explanations that they contain.
* UPDATING: *
1. (Mandatory:) overwrite your copies of
edcntwd0.sty
ednmath0.sty
ednotes.sty
edtable.sty
lineno.sty
manyfoot.sty
mfparptc.sty
with the new versions.
2. Overwrite
mfparxsp.sty
by our new "reminder" version, or just remove it from TeX's
searching scope -- as you like, recall `manyfoot.sty changes'
avove.
3. You may remove (from TeX's searching scope) linenox0.sty,
linenox1.sty, lnopatch.sty -- but they won't harm otherwise;
you will get an error message if you load one of them
inadvertently.
* New documentation/instructions: *
1. An article on ednotes.sty is appearing in TUGboat vol. 24.
It describes the main commands and functions of Ednotes.
Moreover, it compares Ednotes to EDMAC and LEDMAC, two other
TeX macro packages for critical edition typesetting.
We provide a version of the article very near to the final
one as
tb77lueck.pdf .
(it is definitively not the final version.)
2. The README for ednotes.sty has been rewritten very much and
may yield new insights. Detailed explanations addressing
non-TeXperts have been added.
3. lineno.tex has been updated according to the changes of
lineno.sty, of course. A pdflatex outcome
lineno.pdf
is available ([CTAN]/macros/latex/contrib/lineno/lineno.pdf).
A pdflatex outcome
ulineno.pdf
of the user's guide ulineno.tex is available as well.
It only deals with lineno.sty version 3.1, but will though
be helpful (I think).
Recall that lineno.sty offers many commands to control the
style of the marginal line numbers, so its documentation is
an essential contribution to ednotes.sty documentation.
4. Version 1.7 of manyfoot.sty is generated from the
corresponding version of
manyfoot.dtx
which is the TeX source for the documentation of
manyfoot.sty. Recently, the pdflatex output
manyfoot.pdf
has been added to CTAN directory ncctools. These two files
may be less essential for ednotes.sty users than
(u)lineno.tex/pdf. However, manyfoot.sty offers features
that you may find interesting: (i) customize rules between
footnote layers; (ii) \SplitNote (for paragraphed footnotes
at page breaks). (For nccfoots.sty, which manyfoot.sty
requires, there are nccfoots.dtx/pdf as well.)
Good Luck!
