CTAN update: latexdiff
Date: August 26, 2005 6:40:05 PM CEST
On Fri, 19 Aug 2005 Frederik Tilmann submitted an update to the
latexdiff
package.
Location on CTAN: /support/latexdiff
Summary description: Determine and mark up significant differences between latex files
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
latexdiff is a Perl script, which compares two latex files and marks up significant differences between them (i.e. a diff for latex files). Various options are available for visual markup using standard latex packages such as "color.sty". Changes not directly affecting visible text, for example in formatting commands, are still marked in the latex source. A rudimentary revision facilility is provided by another Perl script, latexrevise, which accepts or rejects all changes. Manual editing of the difference file can be used to override this default behaviour and accept or reject selected changes only. This is a significant update (from version 0.2 to 0.3). Major changes are the introduction of CVS support, and much improved reliability for inlined math, plus several bug fixes
Thanks for the update. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
