Jobst Hoffmann submitted an update to the
struktex
package.
Version: 3.0a
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts
Announcement text:
Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts Even in the age of OOP one must develop algorithms. Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams are a well known tool to describe an algorithm in a graphical way. This package StrukTeX presents some macros for generating those diagrams in a LaTeX document. The package provides the most important elements of a Nassi-Shneiderman diagram, including processing blocks, loops, mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. Diagrams are drawn using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference). The author is Jobst Hoffmann. See also pict2e. If one is working with (X)emacs and AUCTeX the "drawing" process is supported by structex.el, a style file which knows the syntax of most of the commands from the StrukTeX package. Version v3.0a-0-gfdf7422 incorporates a nearly completely rewritten documentation and a new file organization without the need of a struktex.ins fle. Additionally the Makefile is replaced by lbuild.lua and lbuild-config.lua - the latter for configuring the language (de or en).
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/struktex The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/struktex/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese
