(La)TeX

(La)TeX

TeX is a type­set­ting sys­tem which pro­duces high quality re­sults – despite of its age. I became acquainted with TeX back in my uni­ver­si­ty days. I have been in touch with it since then.

I am a member of DANTE e.V. and have been active in the con­text of the pub­li­ca­tion of »Die TeXnische Komödie«.

Cross­word Puz­zles

The LaTeX package cw­puzzle pro­vides the pos­si­bi­li­ty to type­set va­ri­ous kinds of cross­word puz­zles. Re­cent­ly support for new types like Su­do­ku hs been ad­ded. more...

limap

The In­for­ma­tion Mapping® me­thod pro­vides a differ­ent methodology for structuring and presenting in­for­ma­tion. It claims to be use­ful for readers who are more con­cerned about finding the right in­for­ma­tion than reading the do­cu­ment as a whole. Thus short, highly structured, and con­text free pieces of in­for­ma­tion are used. more...

gn-lo­gic

Type­set­ting ma­the­ma­tics in TeX is tailored to­wards al­ge­bra­ic for­mu­lae. If you are type­set­ting lo­gi­cal for­mu­lae some dis­tan­ces might be mis­leading. The package gn-lo­gic.sty pro­vides macros to avoid this de­fi­cien­cy. more...

Type­set­ting Pro­log-Code

The idea of “Li­te­ra­te Pro­gram­ming” is to tie to­ge­ther the code and the do­cu­men­ta­tion. The re­quired aspect can then be ex­trac­ted. The package pl pro­vides a poor man’s so­lu­tion for Pro­log. It allows you to use the same file with­out change or ge­ne­ra­ti­on for LaTeX and for Pro­log. more...

εχTeX

And then there is εχTeX.
