Summary description: Install TeX packages and their dependencies
Announcement text:
The package first known as "texuse", then as "findpkg", has now hopefully found its definitive name: "texfindpkg". TeXFindPkg makes it easy to install TeX packages and their dependencies by file names, command names or environment names. To install a package by its file name you can run `texfindpkg install array.sty`. To install a package by some command name you can run `texfindpkg install \fakeverb`. To install a package by some environment name you can run `texfindpkg install {frame}`. TeXFindPkg supports both TeX Live and MiKTeX distributions. At present it focuses mainly on LaTeX packages, but may be extended to ConTeXt packages if anyone would like to contribute.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/texfindpkg The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/texfindpkg/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese
