This collection contains implementations for aspects of the LaTeX3 kernel, dealing with higher-level ideas such as the Designer Interface. The packages here are considered broadly stable (The LaTeX3 Project does not expect the interfaces to alter radically). These packages are built on LaTeX2e conventions at the interface level, and so may not migrate in the current form to a stand-alone LaTeX3 format. Packages provided: xparse, which provides a high-level interface for declaring document commands xfp, an expandable IEEE 754 FPU for LaTeX l3keys2e, which makes the facilities of the kernel module l3keys available for use by LaTeX 2e packages xtemplate, which provides a means of defining generic functions using a key-value syntax xfrac, which provides flexible split-level fractions
LaTeX is a front end for the TeX text formatting system. Easier to use than TeX. LaTeX is essentially a set of TeX macros which provide convenient, predefined document formats for users. It also allows to compile LaTeX files directly to PDF format. The TeX documentation is located in the texlive-doc package.
This is a collection of fonts for use with standard latex packages and classes. It includes 'invisible' fonts (for use with the slides class), line and circle fonts (for use in the picture environment) and 'latex symbol' fonts. For full support of a latex installation, some Computer Modern font variants cmbsy(6-9), cmcsc(8,9), cmex(7-9) and cmmib(5-9) from the amsfonts distribution, are also necessary. The fonts are available as Metafont source, and metric (tfm) files are also provided. Most of the fonts are also available in Adobe Type 1 format, in the amsfonts distribution. date: 2012-07-07 15:54:01 +0200

LaTeX is a widely-used macro package for TeX, providing many basic document formating commands extended by a wide range of packages. It is a development of Leslie Lamport's LaTeX 2.09, and superseded the older system in June 1994. The basic distribution is catalogued separately, at latex-base; apart from a large set of contributed packages and third-party documentation (elsewhere on the archive), the distribution includes: - a bunch of required packages, which LaTeX authors are "entitled to assume" will be present on any system running LaTeX; and - a minimal set of documentation detailing differences from the 'old' version of LaTeX in the areas of user commands, font selection and control, class and package writing, font encodings, configuration options and modification of LaTeX. For downloading details, see the linked catalogue entries above. date: 2013-03-06 18:48:43 +0100

The package is written in order to help identifying the rightful addressee for a bug report. The LaTeX team asks that it will be loaded in any test file that is intended to be sent to the LaTeX bug database as part of a bug report.
