CTAN update: lipsum
Date: July 22, 2021 9:04:00 AM CEST
Phelype Oleinik submitted an update to the
lipsum
package.
Version: 2.4
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Easy access to the Lorem Ipsum and other dummy texts
Announcement text:
### Fixed - Removed spurious group around `\lipsum` to avoid problems with, for example, `wrapfig` (gh/1). ### Added - Czech dummy text provided by Ondřej Macek. - `\setlipsum` macro to change options in the document. - `hyphens` option to turn on/off hyphenation pattern selection. ### Removed - `\setlipsumdefault` (superseded by `\SetLipsumDefault`). - Some undocumented `expl3` interfaces (most of them kind of useless). - Undocumented `\IfLipsumText` function. ### Changed - Reorder text sources: sources are plain text and generated text files are plain-friendly. - Various internal changes for `expl3` code style compliance. - Added own range parsing to avoid low-level errors on missing range argument, e.g. `\lipsum[]` (gh/5). - Empty (optional) range arguments are now equivalent to not using the argument at all (that is, `\lipsum[]` is equivalent to `\lipsum`). - Use Unicode characters in `lipsum-cicero.txt` instead of text commands. - Use hyphenation patterns according to the language of the dummy text.
