teTeX was a comprehensive distribution of TeX, LaTeX and family, designed for ease of compilation, installation and customisation. In 2006, Thomas Esser announced he would no longer be able to support, or to produce new versions of, teTeX. With the appearance of TeX live 2007 (whose Unix-system TeX support originally derived from teTeX), no-one should be using teTeX at all, in new applications. One of the "schemes" available when installing TeX live provides a configuration very close to that of the old teTeX, but using modern versions of programs and packages. date: 2012-09-11 08:43:58 +0200

A Perl script that provides support for thumbnails in pdfTeX and dvips/ps2pdf. The script uses ghostscript to generate the thumbnails which get represented in a TeX readable file that is read by the package thumbpdf.sty to automatically include the thumbnails. This arrangement works with both plain TeX and LaTeX. date: 2012-11-14 18:32:01 +0100

These fonts are considered the 'ultimate answer' to IPA typesetting. The encoding of these 8-bit fonts has been registered as LaTeX standard encoding T3, and the set of addendum symbols as encoding TS3. 'Times-like' Adobe Type 1 versions are provided for both the T3 and the TS3 fonts. date: 2012-01-30 10:59:21 +0100
A collection of (variously) simple tools provided as part of the LaTeX required tools distribution, comprising: afterpage, array, bm, calc, dcolumn, delarray, enumerate, fileerr, fontsmpl, ftnright, hhline, indentfirst, layout, longtable, multicol, rawfonts, showkeys, somedefs, tabularx, theorem, trace, varioref, verbatim, xr, and xspace. date: 2012-06-06 12:15:04 +0200
With the package, \_ in text mode (i.e., \textunderscore) prints an underscore so that hyphenation of words either side of it is not affected; a package option controls whether an actual hyphenation point appears after the underscore, or merely a break point. The package also arranges that, while in text, '_' itself behaves as \textunderscore (the behaviour of _ in maths mode is not affected. date: 2010-06-07 08:23:51 +0200
The current release of this package typesets mathematics with unicode input and using OpenType maths fonts. (There is little compatibility with older maths packages.) XeTeX support is well tested, though LuaTeX support less so. The package can typeset using STIX fonts, the XITS development of those fonts, the Asana-Math fonts, the Latin Modern Math, and the TeX Gyre Math font familiess, as well as the commercial Cambria Math fonts. There is no support for extra alphabets in the Unicode 'private use area'. The package relies on recent versions of the fontspec package and the l3kernel and l3packages bundles. date: 2013-03-17 15:18:45 +0100
The command \url is a form of verbatim command that allows linebreaks at certain characters or combinations of characters, accepts reconfiguration, and can usually be used in the argument to another command. (The \urldef command provides robust commands that serve in cases when \url doesn't work in an argument.) The command is intended for email addresses, hypertext links, directories/paths, etc., which normally have no spaces, so by default the package ignores spaces in its argument. However, a package option "allows spaces", which is useful for operating systems where spaces are a common part of file names. date: 2013-12-31 15:02:54 +0100
The varwidth environment is superficially similar to minipage, but the specified width is just a maximum value -- the box may get a narrower "natural" width. date: 2010-11-26 12:00:18 +0100
