TeX::Hyphen is a Perl module to hyphenate words using TeXs patterns.

SYNOPSIS

use TeX::Hyphen;
my $hyp = new TeX::Hyphen file => hyphen.tex,
style => czech, leftmin => 2,
rightmin => 2;

# my $hyp = new TeX::Hyphen "hyphen.tex";

my $word = "representation";
my @points = $hyp->hyphenate($word);
print $hyp->visualize($word), "n";

Constructor new() creates a new Hyphen object and loads the file with patterns into memory. Then you can ask it for hyphenation of a word by calling a method of this object. If no file is specified, the default Donald E. Knuths hyphen.tex, that is included in this module, is used instead.

Arguments to constructor

You can pass arguments to the new() call as hash, possible options are
file

Name of the file with the patters. It will be loaded and the resulting object will be able to hyphenate according to patterns in that file.

For convenience and backward compatibility, the file name can also be specified as the first (odd) parameter to new().

style

Various languages use special shortcuts to specify the patterns. Instead of doing the full TeX expansion, we use Perl code to parse the patterns. The style option loads TeX::Hyphen::name_of_the_style module and uses the parsing functions found in it.

Currently, the default czech (which also works for English alright) and german are available. See the TeX::Hyphen::czech man page for more information, especially if you want to support other languages/styles.

leftmin

The minimum starting substring which will not be hyphenated. This overrides the default specified in the style file.

rightmin

The minimum ending substring which will not be hyphenated. This overrides the default specified in the style file.

Methods that are supported

Method hyphenate() returns list of places where the word can be divided, so

$hyp->visualize(representation)

returns list (3, 5, 8, 10).

Method visualize() can be used to show these points, so

$hyp->visualize(representation)

should return rep-re-sen-ta-tion, at least for English patterns.

Variables $TeX::Hyphen::LEFTMIN and $TeX::Hyphen::RIGHTMIN can be used to restrict minimal starting and ending substring where it is not possible to hyphenate. They both default to 2 but should be changed to match the paratemers used to generate the patterns.

Variable $TeX::Hyphen::DEBUG can be set to see some statistics and processing.

The file with hyphenation patterns may contain and v accents, used in the Czech (and other) languages.

pdfTeX is an extended version of TeX that can create PDF directly from TeX source files and enhance the result of TeX typesetting with the help of PDF.
When PDF output is not selected, pdfTeX produces normal DVI output, otherwise it produces PDF output that looks identical to the DVI output.
An important aspect of pdfTeX project is to investigate alternative justification algorithms, optionally making use of multiple master fonts.
Enhancements:
- This includes xpdf 3.02pl1, fixing some security problems.

Rabbit is an application to do presentation with RD format document.

Features: theme (look and feel), auto modified source reloading, theme reloading, include external image specified by URI, index, screenshot, PS/PDF output, popup menu, (mime)TeX plugin, align with RWiki, subscript, superscript, mathmatical characters, ...

Dvipost is a post-processor for DVI files created by LaTeX and TeX. It can be used for special modes that normally need DVI drivers such as dvips.
Dvipost project supports layout raster, change bars, and overstrike mode.
Compiling dvipost:
configure
make
make install
Use of dvipost:
latex < name >[.tex]
dvipost < name >.dvi < name >.dvi
or
pplatex < name >[.tex]
note: dvipost alllows to use the same name for input and output.
A second call to dvipost does not change the file.
Enhancements:
- Bugfix: Added support for DVI_FNT commands. The lacke of this caused dvipost to segfault on documents with more than 64 fonts.
- Removed unneeded package color from examples.
- Corrected command calls in Makefile.in

Finomaton project allows users comfortably draw and typeset finite state machines (automata).

The resulting graphs can be exported to plain MetaPost and subsequently be included in TeX and LaTeX documents for excellent typesetting quality. Contrary to many other packages, the mouse can be used to interactively move objects around.

States are magnetic to facilitate connection, and any TeX command can be embedded in the labels of states and lines.

HFM is a font manager for Unix systems. With it you can control the avaliability of fonts in all of the supported applications from a central place. Currently included are modules to support:

* X-Window
* Ghostscript
* TeX

A PostScript module handles PS Fonts. Other fonts remain untouched by this program.

HFM is distributed under the GPL (GNU Public License).

AUCTeX is an extensible package for writing and formatting TeX files in GNU Emacs and XEmacs.
Main features:
Editing:
- Insert macros, environments and headings with a simple key stroke or via a menu entry. AUCTeX will help you by prompting for parameters in case of known macros and environments. There is a completion mechanism for partially written macros available as well.
- Use keyboard shortcuts for inserting math.
- Sophisticated fontification and indentation of TeX/LaTeX macros and environments.
- Fold macros and environments and show their contents or a pre-defined string instead. You can temporarily show the folded content again for editing.
Compiling:
- Run various TeX/LaTeX interpreters and related programs like BibTeX or makeindex from within Emacs.
- View errors of the compiler run and jump to the respective place in the TeX/LaTeX source code.
Viewing:
- Start viewers for DVI, PostScript and PDF output from within Emacs.
- Use forward and inverse search with DVI viewers.
Extensibility and customizability:
- Support for macros and environments of many TeX/LaTeX packages with the use of style files.
- Easily extensible by writing your own style files.
- Many aspects of AUCTeX can be adapted to fit your personal working style via the customize mechanism provided by Emacs.
Enhancements:
- A new function TeX-doc for accessing docs on C-c ?.
- New "Clean" and "Clean All" commands for intermediate and output files. pdfsync support (forward search in PDF files).
- LaTeX comes with its own toolbar enabled by default.
- Some bugs have been fixed.
