CTAN submission -- dvipsconfig 1.5

----- Forwarded message from Volker Kuhlmann
<kuhlmav@...> -----
uploaded:       ftp://dante.ctan.org/incoming/dvipsconfig-1.5.tar.gz
license:        GPL
archive:        ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/dviware/dvipsconfig/

This is a set of files which can be used with dvips to control certain
parameters of the printer, like simplex/duplex printing, or screen
frequencies of images.

New with version 1.5:

* paper size usledger (upon request)

* a program addpsctrl, which allows to insert these postscript printer
controls into existing postscript files. The program can act as filter,
and is written for bash (version 1 or 2). Sorry about the bash but it's
too diffcult to do decent programming with what some vendors ship as
/bin/sh, e.g. SUN.

Below is the help output.

Please update the archive (and thanks again for running it)

Volker

Usage: addpsctrl [OPTION]... [FILE] [CTRL]...
Version VK 1.2, 2 Aug 2000

Inserts printer control instructions (e.g. duplex) into a PostScript file.

the directory is macros/latex/exptl; it's not restricted; indeed, we
encourage people to put work-in-progress in it.

so i've installed the package in macros/latex/exptl/xdoc

CTAN submission -- update to accents 1.2

----- Forwarded message from Javier Bezos <jbezos@...> -----
I uploaded to the Dante server the following files:

  accents.tex
  accents.sty
  tensind.tex
  readme

grouped in the /incoming/bezos-update/ directory. These files
should replace the corresponding ones under
/macros/latex/contrib/supported/bezos/ leaving untouched the
remainder (esindex.sty, etc.).

The only significant change is a quick fix in accents for it
to work with amsmath 2.

Thanks
Javier Bezos

PS. Please, annonce it on the CTAN list. Thanks.
----- End forwarded message -----

Thanks for the contribution, I installed it as suggested in
CTAN:/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/bezos/
