https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680240 | 3 | I'm trying to put in a LaTeX3 string a text to write later in a file (I also do other processing on that string before writing it, like text replacement, string concatenation…), but this file might **not** be a LaTeX document, but an arbitrary text/code, hence I want to preserve precisely the input, including newlines, spaces, tabulations, and many characters like `_{}$\` like:
```
Hello % This is a comment that should not be removed
I want precisely this spacing, and I want to be allowed to use any text, like 1 + (1*2), héhé,
or:
def mycode(my_variable_with_underscore="hey"): # This is a comment (with a single sharp)
print(my_variable_with_underscore)
or latex macros like $\array{a & b\\c & d}$. And ideally unbalanced {} but I heard it was difficult
(maybe by replacing special tokens like \MYCLOSINGBRACE and \MYOPENINGBRACE in the final string?).
```
For now, I tried to play with `\tl_rescan:nn`, [trying to follow this answer](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/619960/use-inside-commands/619983#619983) without much success.

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/116348 | Put in a LaTeX3 string the **exact** input string to write in a file | true | Some facts about TeX and LaTeX that should be taken into consideration:
* All programming in TeX actually is based on so-called tokens.
In TeX tokens can be control sequence tokens or explicit character tokens (with properties category and character code).
Tokens can come into being as follows:
+ By having TeX read lines of a .tex-input-file and tokenize them or (in interactive mode) by having TeX read lines typed at the console and tokenize them.
(`\scantokens` can be used for simulating the unexpanded-writing of tokens to file and then loading that file via `\input`.)
+ In the stage of expansion by expanding expandable tokens, e.g., macros or things like `\the*⟨register or parameter⟩*`, etc.
+ With LuaTeX-based TeX-engines by having the Lua-backend push tokens into the token-stream, e.g., via `token.put_next(token.create(...)...)`.A mechanism based on macro-programming in TeX (and thus focussed on tokens!) for exact re-creation of arbitrary portions of .tex-input from tokens that came into being due to tokenizing these portions of .tex-input is not possible because in the stage of processing tokens via macros information about how the tokens processed by the macros came into being is not available. Thus in case these tokens came into being due to having TeX read/pre-process lines of a .tex-file and tokenize them, information on what these lines of .tex-input looked like is not available, either.
Portions of .tex-input can only be re-created if at the time of tokenization it was ensured by adjusting catcode-régime and `\endlinechar`
+ that no character of the source is just dropped during pre-processing and tokenization,
+ that each character of the source only yields a (character-)token from whose properties (character-code) you can deduce the corresponding character in the .tex-input-file,
+ that information about ends of lines/linebreaking is not lost.(No character being dropped during pre-processing is a crucial point because in any case space characters at the right ends of lines of .tex-input are dropped. For more details about pre-processing see below.
Besides this—but these are things which can be handled by adjusting the catcode-régime before tokenization—in case TeX is not gathering the first character of the name of a control sequence token,
+ characters of category code 9 are dropped.
+ characters of category code 10(space) are dropped if TeX's reading-apparatus is in state S(skipping blanks) or N(new line).
(The latter is the reason why under normal catcode-régime you
can use space-characters and horizontal-tab-characters, which
in normal catcode-régime have category code 10, for indenting
your code.)
+ characters of category code 10(space) in case the reading-apparatus is in state M (middle of line) are tokenized as explicit space tokens, i.e., as explicit character tokens of category 10(space) and character code 32. In case a character has category code 10(space), the resulting character token has character code 32 no matter what number the codepoint in TeX's internal character encoding scheme the character in question has.
+ what token comes into being when tokenizing a character of category 5(end of line) depends on the state of the reading-apparatus.
+ characters on the same line following a character of category code 5(end of line) are dropped.
+ characters of category 14(comment) and subsequent characters on the same line are dropped.
+ TeX does not like to encounter characters of category code 15 (invalid).
... )
* The result of (unexpanded) writing a control sequence token depends on the value of the integer-parameter `\escapechar`. This is also the case when applying `\string`, `\detokenize`, `\scantokens`, `\meaning`, `\show`.
* When (unexpanded) writing a control-word-token, TeX appends a space-character. Even if in the .tex-input-file there was no space.
E.g., under normal catcode-regime the input `\TeX\TeX` is tokenized as two control-word-tokens `\TeX`. Unexpanded-writing them yields the character-sequence `\TeX␣\TeX␣`— ␣ denotes a space-character. TeX does not append a space-character when (unexpanded) writing a control-symbol-token. This also applies with `\scantokens` and `\detokenize`.
* Explicit space-*tokens* (explicit character tokens of category 10(space) and character code 32) are dropped while gathering the first token of an undelimited macro argument.
* Hashes, i.e., explicit character tokens of category 6(parameter) are doubled when they get written to text file or screen. This also applies with `\scantokens` and `\detokenize`.
* When LaTeX reads a line of .tex-input, some pre-processing takes place before tokenizing :
1. The characters are converted from the computer-platform's character representation scheme to TeX's internal character representation scheme which with traditional TeX engines is ASCII and which with LuaTeX-based and XeTeX-based TeX-engines is unicode whereof ASCII is a strict subset.
2. **All space characters (and with TeX-implementations based on some Web2C-releases also all horizontal-tab-characters) at the right end of the line are removed. There is no way of getting around that removal of spaces at line-ends, not even with switching to verbatim-mode.** (Switching to verbatim-mode implies temporarily changing the catcode-régime which in turn affects tokenizing which in turn takes place *after* the line of .tex-input is pre-processed.)
3. **A character is appended at the right end of the line whose codepoint in TeX's internal character representation scheme equals the value of the integer parameter `\endlinechar`.**
If `\endlinechar` has a value outside the range of codepoints available in the the TeX-engine's internal character representation scheme, then no character is appended at the right end of the line.
Usually the value of `\endlinechar` is 13 which denotes the carriage-return-character. Usually the category code of the carriage-return-character is 5 (end of line) which means that TeX behaves as follows when encountering it during tokenization:
If TeX is gathering the first character of the name of a control sequence token, TeX will insert into the token stream a control-symbol-token whose name is formed by the carriage-return-character, so-to-say a "control-return".
If TeX is not gathering the first character of the name of a control sequence token, TeX drops the remaining characters of the line and in case the reading-apparatus is in state S (skipping blanks) does not append any token to the token-stream, in case the reading apparatus is in state M (middle of line) does append a space token (character code 32, category 10(space)) to the token-stream, in case the reading apparatus is in state N (new line) does append the control-word-token `\par` to the token-stream no matter what the current meaning of `\par` is.
That's why an empty line usually yields `\par`: Like any line the empty line gets the endline-character appended, which usually is the carriage-return-character. When encountering that carriage-return-character, no other token has been produced from characters of that line, thus the state of the reading-apparatus is in state N while encountering a character of category 5 (end of line). Ergo does TeX append the control-word-token `\par` to the token-stream.
* When TeX writes character-tokens to file, depending on the underlying TeX-engine in use (traditional (pdf)TeX/XeTeX/LuaTeX) and depending on the settings for character-translation (those .tcx-files where you can specify what characters to write in `^^`-notation) character-translation takes place so that with some TeX-engines the carriage-return-character, which is considered somewhat special, is written in `^^`-notation as `^^M` and with other engines the carriage return character is written as the corresponding ASCII-byte/utf8-byte-sequence.
* When TeX writes tokens to file or screen, explicit character tokens whose character code equals the number of the integer-parameter `\newlinechar` are not written but are taken for directives for continuing writing at the begin of another line. Usually `\newlinechar` has the value 10 which denotes the line-feed-character (codepoint 10 both in ASCII and in unicode; `^^J` in `^^` notation; `J` is the 10th letter in the latin alphabet).
* When LaTeX switches to verbatim-catcode-régime, also with `+v`-argument-type, the category-code of the horizontal-tab-character (codepoint 9 in ASCII and in unicode, `\^^I` in TeX's `^^`-notation while I is the 9th letter in the latin alphabet) is left unchanged. I.e., in verbatim-catcode-régime the category code of the horizontal-tab-character is 10(space) which in turn implies that in verbatim-catcode-régime horizontal-tab-characters are tokenized as explicit space tokens (character code 32, category 10(space)) which in turn implies that they are not written as horizontal-tab-characters but are written as space-characters. This can be resolved by switching the category-code of the horizontal-tab-character to 12(other) when having stuff tokenized under verbatim-catcode-régime for writing to external text file.
* When LaTeX switches to verbatim-catcode-régime, the carriage-return-character gets category code 12(other) so that in verbatim-mode carriage-return-characters appended to lines of .tex-input due to the `\endlinechar`-mechanism get tokenized as ordinary character tokens of category 12(other).
When it comes to writing such ordinary return-character-tokens, depending on the engine in use and the character-translation in effect, they might be written either in `^^`-notation as `^^M` or as the corresponding ASCII-byte/utf8-byte-sequence.
* Usually the carriage-return-character within the set of characters that forms a pre-processed line of TeX-input only occurs at the right end, due to the `\endlinechar`-mechanism. **Therefore you can circumvent the need of writing carriage-return-characters completely by saying `\newlinechar=\endlinechar`/`\tex_newlinechar:D=\tex_endlinechar:D` when it comes to writing.** This in turn implies that you need to know the moment in time when it comes to writing, which is easy when writing takes place immediately/in terms of `\immediate`/`\tex_immediate:D`, but which is not that easy when writing is delayed until the output-routine ships out another page.
But this way at writing-time carriage-return-characters are not written explicitly (be it as ASCII-bytes/utf-8-byte-sequences or in `^^`-notation) but they just signal that writing shall be continued at the begin of another line. This way they trigger whatsoever platform-specific action needs to be triggered with your TeX-installation on the computer-platform in use for continuing writing at the begin of another line.
**[As projectmbc pointed out](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680240/put-in-a-latex3-string-the-exact-input-string-to-write-in-a-file/680449?noredirect=1#comment1688239_680355), instead of saying `\newlinechar=\endlinechar`/`\tex_newlinechar:D=\tex_endlinechar:D`, you may consider replacing in the string all `^^M`-characters by `^^J`-characters** as this will also ensure preservation of proper line-breaking when it comes to writing the string to file—s.th. along the lines of `\str_replace_all:Nxx \g_my_string { \iow_char:N \^^M } { \iow_char:N \^^J }` before it comes to writing via some variant of `\iow_now:Nn`. **I suppose that is a better approach because replacing can be done at any time so that this technique can also be used when it is about delayed-writing.**
* A problem with expl3's `\iow_now:Nn` and variants is that these commands internally via `\int_set:Nn` ensure that at writing-time `\newlinechar` denotes the line-feed-character. This makes it hard to have `\newlinechar=\endlinechar` at writing-time. You could temporarily neutralize `\int_set:Nn` by redefining it as a macro which just gobbles its arguments, but that would be an ugly hack. I suggest resorting to TeX-primitives `\tex_immediate:D \tex_write:D` instead.
This is what I might probably do if it must be expl3:
```

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680424 | 1 | I am trying to use the AMS Euler fonts in my plain XeTeX document, and by taking inspiration from various sources online (including Knuth's macros for *Concrete Mathematics*), I thought the following would work
```
\font\teneurm=eurm10
\textfont0=\teneurm
$a$
\bye
```
(Of course there are more sizes and families to define, but this is a MNWE)
What did I do wrong?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/nan | Set AMS Euler as the default maths font (XeTeX) | true | In order to change the look of `a` in math mode, it is necessary to change family 1 of fonts (`\textfont1`, `\scriptfont1`, and `\scriptscriptfont1`). To understand why this is, it's necessary to understand how TeX knows how to correctly typeset a character in math mode. Compared to text mode, there are far more fonts in use within math mode. So while in text mode it is (usually) sufficient to simply look at the character in the current font at a specific location, this is not the case for math mode.
Instead TeX utilizes the mathcode of the character, which you can access with, for example, `\the\mathcode`\a`, which prints `29025`. Converting this into hex you get `7161`. To unpack a mathcode:
* The first number (in the hexadecimal representation) is called the *class*. The class of a character dictates the spacing rules for it.
* The next number is the *family*, this is the font family where the character is stored.
* The next two numbers is the location of the character within the font.
In this case, where family=1 and location=61, we can see that when looking at the font table for `cmmi10` (`\textfont1`):
At place `0x61` is the italic `a` character.
So in order to change the font used for the `a` character, you must change font family 1.
---
---
That answers the question about changing the font of a character in math, but I didn't really explain what the class of a character means. This isn't really important to know for your question, but it is useful in general.
There are 8 classes (which a character can be):
0. Ordinary: these are characters like `/`.
1. Large Operator: these are characters like `\sum` and `\int`, they are special in that they are vertically centered and have limits (material which goes above and below them).
2. Binary Operation: these are characters like `+`.
3. Relations: these are characters like `=`.
4. Opening: these are characters like `(`.
5. Closing: these are characters like `)`.
6. Punctuation: these are characters like `,`.
7. Variable: these are mainly letters and numbers.
(There is one more type of class, but it can't be in the value of a `\mathcode`: the Inner Formula class. These are usually generated by `\left...\right` constructs.)
While the main use of these classes is for spacing, some classes have special properties as well, specifically the Big Operator (1) and Variable (7) classes. Big operators are vertically centered and have *limits* (material which goes above and below them), this is why you can do `\sum_{n=1}^\infty` and get `n=1` below and `\infty` above the `\sum`.
But `a` is of the Variable class. The Variable class has no special spacing rules, the rules for an Ordinary class are used; it is almost identical to the Ordinary class except for in one important respect. The family used by a Variable character is dictated by a register `\fam`, when `\fam` is a valid family (between 0 and 15), the family used is `\fam` instead of whatever is specified in the `\mathcode` of the character. This is what allows for changing fonts in math mode without changing the values of `\textfont` and friends. For example, since family 0 is the family of roman fonts, plain TeX defines `\rm` like
```
\def\rm{\fam\z@\tenrm}
```
ie. it both sets `\fam` to 0 (`\z@` is a register which is always zero) and also changes the current font to `cmr10`. Changing `\fam` in text mode doesn't change anything (TeX also automatically sets `\fam` to -1 when math mode is entered, so this really has no effect), and `\tenrm` has no effect in math mode. So both of these are necessary in order for `\rm` to work both in text mode and math mode.
Further information can be found in the TeXbook (like the exact spacing rules used, and how TeX typesets other special characters in math mode like delimiters and accents).

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680346 | 0 | I use pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.24 (TeX Live 2022) (preloaded format=pdflatex)

I include `\usepackage[colorlinks=true,urlcolor=blue]{hyperref}`
I had been using texlive 2016. Until I installed texlive 2022, \ref{xyz} produced only the number for xyz.
Now it includes the number, the title (section name, figure caption, ...) what it is (section, figure, ...) and then the number again.
For example, with an equation having \label{Flow}, when I wrote "Equation (\ref{Flow})" I used to get "Equation (2)". Now I get "Equation (2Flowequation.3.2)"
This occurs both using \documentclass{article} and a proprietary class for a professional journal. I haven't tried others.
I've "compiled" in a fresh directory, so it's not due to confusion caused by an old .aux file.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680471 | 4 | I'm writing a document class that uses the `datetime2` package to write a month-year date in the title of the document. Here is a MWE:

I have run into the problem that many languages don't capitalize month names, whereas the desired behavior would be to capitalize them since it is a title (e.g. "Marzo de 2022" instead of "marzo de 2022").
I have tried using `\expandafter\MakeUppercase` and also the `mfirstuc` package as explained [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/362129/capitalize-first-letter-of-a-defined-variable), but none of those work (I assume it's because the `\today` command is pretty complex so it's not easy to expand?). I also cannot hard-code month names because I expect this class to work independently of language, and because I regularly use four languages to typeset documents (French, Italian, Spanish and English, three of which display this issue).
I would love a bit of help with this!
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/293490 | Capitalizing first character of \today independently of the language | true | By creating a new style (e.g. `mydate`) which display month date with a capital (with `\DTMMonthname`) you obtain you target. We need also the package **datetime-calc** which convert the numeric value of the current month date to the month in letters.
In `\DTMdisplaydate`, the second parameter is the number of the month (3 for March), and the first is the year.
**Edit:** Bug fix provided because in italian language, the **datetime2** package don't provide uppercased month names.
**Edit 2:** I have also managed the spanish case, replacing the "Month Year" output by "Month de Year" (e.g. Marzo de 2023).

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680493 | 3 | For the development of a class file I am trying to perform some basic checking on strings (which can contain latex commands).
For this I use the **tokcycle** package.
When I pass a string directly everything works as expected.
For various reasons (we store arguments using **pgfkeys** and later retireve these values if they exist) I need to process the *content* of a macro.
How to pass the content of a macro to a command?
Or get **tokcycle** to work on the content of the macro without expending the macro since we want to detect macro's in the input string (such as "Test\test").
Example:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tokcycle}
\newcommand\checkstring[1]{%
\typeout{CHECKING ----------- #1}%
\tokcycle{\typeout{CHARACTER: ##1}}%
{\typeout{GROUP: ##1}}%
{\typeout{MACRO: \string##1}}%
{\typeout{SPACE: ##1}}%
{#1}%
}
\newcommand\good[1]{%
\checkstring{#1}%
}
\newcommand\problem[1]{%
\def\tmp{#1}%
\checkstring{\tmp}%
}
\begin{document}
\good{Test.}
\problem{Test.}
\end{document}
```
This gives:
```
CHECKING ----------- Test.
CHARACTER: T
CHARACTER: e
CHARACTER: s
CHARACTER: t
CHARACTER: .
CHECKING ----------- Test.
MACRO: \tmp
```
I would like to have the output identical in both cases.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/293508 | How to pass the content of a macro to a command? | false | You can step over the expansion of a token by using `\expandafter`. You'll also need to step over the opening brace to get what you want, which is why you'd need `\expandafter\checkstring\expandafter{\tmp}`.
If all that you need is list the contents of the argument for debugging purposes, I suggest to use the build in `expl3`-function `\tl_analysis_log:n` instead of building your own version using the `tokcycle` package:
```
\documentclass{article}
\ExplSyntaxOn
\cs_new_eq:NN \checkstring \tl_analysis_log:n
\ExplSyntaxOff
\newcommand\good[1]{%
\checkstring{#1}%
}
\newcommand\problem[1]{%
\def\tmp{#1}%
\expandafter\checkstring\expandafter{\tmp}%
}
\begin{document}
\good{Test.}
\problem{Test.}
\end{document}
```
Which will print the following to your log file:
```
The token list contains the tokens:
> T (the letter T)
> e (the letter e)
> s (the letter s)
> t (the letter t)
> . (the character .)
The token list contains the tokens:
> T (the letter T)
> e (the letter e)
> s (the letter s)
> t (the letter t)
> . (the character .)

I am pretty sure all of me system is up to date (on a rolling release Linux).

Comments
* use `\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}` instead of `t1enc`
* use `enumitem` over `enumerate`
* use `xcolor` over `color`
* I'd probably use `subcaption` instead of the others
* load `hyperref` last
* There were several spelling errors in the code provided.
* Load only packages that you actually need.
* It is good advise to write a small note above each package explaining why it is used. Then if the doc is given to someone else to use as a template they can decide if they need it.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/25105 | 20 | I would like to add labels to pages inserted with the pdfpages package.
It sort of works right now, but it is not possible to link to the labels with `\ref` and `\pageref` commands. In spite of that not working, it **is** possible to link to the page with the `hyperlink` command from hyperref.
The goal is to compile a list of things to read in a course and then later say 'read from page xx to yy'. The pagenumbers should of course be determined automatically.
In the document below, the pageref expands to ?? while the text Hello links to the correct page.
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\begin{document}
See page \pageref{testing.1}.
\hyperlink{testing.1}{Hello.}
\includepdf[pages=-,link,linkname=testing]{test.pdf}
\end{document}
```
For reference, the inserted document (test.pdf) can be any valid PDF document.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/1366 | Unable to link to inserted pages with pdfpages | false | Maybe late to the party.
Iterating on [@martin-scharrer](https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/2975/martin-scharrer)'s idea, we can use `pdfpages`' variable `\AM@linkname`, so the user may opt to not change the linkname.
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\newcounter{includepdfpage}
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\stepincluded}{
\refstepcounter{includepdfpage}%
\label{\AM@linkname.\theincludepdfpage}%
}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
See page \pageref{test.pdf.1} till \pageref{test.pdf.10}.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/32466 | 22 | Using the `babel` package to write Hebrew text exposes incompatibilities with all sorts of other packages. This questions is about the incompatibility with `hyperref`.
Basically, you can't get links with right-to-left text. It's about the direction rather than the non-Latin language - somehow the link-start command is placed at the end due to some sort of reversal. The problem is described in Guy Rutenberg's blog, [here](http://www.guyrutenberg.com/2009/06/27/getting-hyperref-to-work-with-hebrew-in-xetex/#more-389).
Here's an MWEs for `\cite` and `\ref`:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[hebrew,english]{babel}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\section{A section}
\label{mysection}
LTR English cite \cite{MYSRC}. And now in RTL Hebrew:
\selectlanguage{hebrew}
\cite{MYSRC}
\selectlanguage{english}
Let's refer to the current section:
\selectlanguage{hebrew}
\ref{mysection}
\begin{thebibliography}{MYSRC}
\bibitem[MYSRC01]{MYSRC}
The bibliography entry for MYSRC.
\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}
```
For both of these (and for `\autoref`), you get:
```
! pdfTeX error (ext4): pdf_link_stack empty, \pdfendlink used without \pdfstart
link?.
\AtBegShi@Output ...ipout \box \AtBeginShipoutBox
\fi \fi
```
**Notes**:
* Vafa Khaligi's [comment below](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/36287/5640) may be useful in isolating the minimum offending code out of everything 'babel' does, although I can't say for sure.
* The blog entry I linked to has a workaround - which only works with xetex. Can it be adapted somehow?
* Stefan Kottwitz suggested a workaround which won a bounty on this question. But what I would really like is to make hyperref get such links correctly somehow.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/5640 | hyperref links break with pdftex + babel + Hebrew (or right-to-left language) | false | This is not a practical solution, but more of a proof of concept. I did not bother to robustify any of the commands, or typeset the citation text in the correct order (I think? what should be the order?).
Anyway, here is a possible starting point:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[hebrew,english]{babel}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\let\origcite\cite
\def\cite#1{\beginL\hbox{\origcite{#1}}\endL}
\makeatletter
\def\@cite#1#2{[{#1\if@tempswa , #2\fi }]}
\makeatother
\let\origref\ref
\AtBeginDocument{%
\def\ref#1{\beginL\hbox{\origref{#1}}\endL}
}
\begin{document}
\section{A section}\label{mysection}
LTR English cite \cite{MYSRC}. And now in RTL Hebrew:
\selectlanguage{hebrew}
\cite{MYSRC}
\selectlanguage{english}
Let's refer to the current section:
\selectlanguage{hebrew}
\ref{mysection}
\begin{thebibliography}{MYSRC}
\bibitem[MYSRC01]{MYSRC}
The bibliography entry for MYSRC.
\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}
```
Hope you will find it useful 11 years later...:)

Any thoughts on how to resolve this?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/292544 | Undefined control sequence because of custom beamer footline | true | There is an important difference between the answer you linked to and your code. You have
```
\beamer{\insertshortinstitute}{}
```
This will cause an error because the macro `\beamer` is not defined (the macro is actually called `\beamer@ifempty`). It also takes 3 arguments, not just 2 as in your code.
In the linked answer the actual code is
```
\beamer@ifempty{\insertshortinstitute}{}{(\insertshortinstitute)}
```
Which will check if the institute is empty and only insert it if it is not empty (this avoids empty `()` in case it is empty)

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/617886 | 5 | I want to use the [AMS Euler](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMS_Euler) font designed by Zapf in my document. I looked for packages on CTAN (e.g., the [*euler* package](https://cs.brown.edu/about/system/managed/latex/doc/euler.pdf)), but they are specifically designed for LaTeX.
I took a look at the `gkpmac.tex` file [Knuth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Knuth) wrote from *Concrete Mathematics* and it is likely to contain the answer I am looking for, but I can't fully understand it and determine what lines to extract to an `eumac.tex` or `euler.tex` file (I don't know what the naming convention is in that case).

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680056 | 1 | I'm using tcolorbox to make some 3x5 cards with lots of text on them. These cards usually consist of a few boxes that don't change much and one final box (containing descriptive text) that fills the rest of the card (using the `[height fill]` option). I usually use `tcboxfit` for the final box so that all the descriptive text fits nicely, but sometimes it just ends up too small.
I would like to somehow condition the options/type of the last box on its content---that is, if the fitted text is below a defined size threshold (in this example, 6pt), then nix the fitting and make a `breakable` box with a fixed text size (probably the 6pt lower threshold) where the second page will eventually be printed on the backside of my 3x5 card.
I've figured out how to condition something on the fitted text size using `\tcbfitdim`. I also discovered the `nirvana` option, which will execute everything given but not draw the box/contents. So far so good.
I thought to use a boolean flag to track whether or not the fitted text is too small and construct the appropriate box afterward, but the result doesn't want to propagate outside of the box itself. The following example always prints "false" regardless of what happened inside `tcboxfit`.
```

Beyond that, all I have is a vague sense that I might need to use `pgfkeys` somehow, but I'd rather not go there if I don't have to. Any tcolorbox aficionados care to weigh in? Is there a way to get my boolean strategy to work? Another strategy I should consider? I'm using LuaLaTeX for other parts of the project, so Lua-based ideas/solutions are welcome.

This is more of a typographical/style/best-practices question, but I am wondering when to use in-line vs equation environment when you have stacked exponents.
Here's an example:
```
By applying Theorem 1, we have that the graph $G$ has at most $n^{d\cdot k^{d+1}} = n^{d\cdot (2^{d-1})^{d+1}} = n ^{d\cdot 2^{d^2-1}}$
maximal cliques.
```
Would this be better typeset in-line or as a separate equation?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/255732 | Should one put nested exponents in-line, or displayed as an equation? | false | Placing such an expression inline forces inconsistent vertical spacing, as seen between the third and fourth lines here:
This should generally be avoided when you can. (Of course, if a journal editor insists on this spacing to save some length of the article, that's out of your hands.) Better to place the tall mathematics in display:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]
By applying Theorem 1, we have that the graph $G$ has at most $n^{d\cdot k^{d+1}} = n^{d\cdot (2^{d-1})^{d+1}} = n ^{d\cdot 2^{d^2-1}}$ maximal cliques.
\lipsum[2]
By applying Theorem 1, we have that the graph $G$ has at most
\[n^{d\cdot k^{d+1}} = n^{d\cdot (2^{d-1})^{d+1}} = n ^{d\cdot 2^{d^2-1}}\]
maximal cliques.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680615 | 0 | I have an french-arabic belangual document, where the french version should be appear at left odd pages when arabic version sould appear at right even pages like as described [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/630811/make-paracol-left-column-on-even-and-right-column-on-odd-pages).
But, I discover the command `\setotherlanguages{arabic}` makes parallel-Paging of paracol not work at all. It is not necessary to use arabic inside the `paracol` environement to make it fail as you can see bellow in my MWE. Just declaring arabic as second language somewhere in the document makes all the `paracol` with `numleft` option fail.
#### MWE
```
\documentclass{book}

\begin{tikzpicture}

```

===== 'mode=convert with system call': Invoking 'pdflatex -shell-escape -halt-o
n-error -interaction=batchmode -jobname "...-figure0" "\def\tikzex

```
where `...` is the name of my tex file. So latex seems to be called on the very same file, and then some magic seems to ensure that latex outputs only the picture in question. But does it have to process all code before that? I guess yes, but that goes much faster than actually compiling all the pages before the picture appears.
Can someone clarify this?
*Edit:* Is the mechanism by which tikzexternaize achieves this hard to understand? Is it possible, for instance, to define an environment `myexternalize` that does the same as tikzexternalize for `tikzpicture`, but for general content?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/27717 | How does tikzexternalize work? | false | Qrrbrbirlbel's comment explained what is going on correctly.
To demonstrate:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{shellesc}
\usetikzlibrary{external}
\tikzexternalize
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\ShellEscape{sleep 5s}
\draw (0,0) rectangle (1,1);
\end{tikzpicture}
\tikzset{every picture/.style={red}}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (0,0) rectangle (1,1);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
```
Save into `a.tex`, delete all auxiliary files (including `a-figure0.pdf` etc.), then `pdflatex -shell-escape a.tex`.
This takes approximately 5 seconds to compile, and subsequent compilations take approximately 0 seconds.
Which means the 5s sleep is not processed when the second image is processed.
On the other hand if it's moved outside...
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{shellesc}
\usetikzlibrary{external}
\tikzexternalize
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (0,0) rectangle (1,1);
\end{tikzpicture}
\ShellEscape{sleep 5s}
\tikzset{every picture/.style={red}}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (0,0) rectangle (1,1);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
```
This takes approximately 15 seconds, and if all figures are already generated then it takes approximately 5 seconds.
Anyway, the key point is that the speed-up is made by skipping through the body of `tikzpicture` environments,
and this can be controlled because it's TikZ's environments.
No magic is needed.
On the other hand, this means other environments e.g. `tabular` are not skipped through. You can try it yourself.

But my choosen sign is not visible in the epub done by tex4ebook when viewed in Adobe Digital Edition laptop version. The following shows a little MWE:

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/292824 | bbding seems not to be completely transmitted via tex4ebook does not show all signs in epub | true | The symbols used by `bbding` are supported by TeX4ht, but it outputs Unicode characters for them. I can see the result in Calibre, but it is possible that your Epub reader doesn't have a font that supports them. In this case, you can convert these symbols to pictures. Try this file, `bbding.4ht`:
```
\NewConfigure{bbding}{2}
\def\:tempa#1{\a:bbding\o:@chooseSymbol:{#1}\b:bbding}
\HLet\@chooseSymbol\:tempa
\Configure{bbding}{\Picture+{}}{\EndPicture}

It attaches TeX4ht instructions for the picture conversion to the `\@chooseSymbol` command. This command is used by `bbding` to print symbols.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680631 | 2 | I am using Sublime Text 3 with LatexTools and Texlive. If, after compiling with biber I get an error due to an undefined citation, the next compile runs automatically with bibtex instead, in which case all citations are wrong.
MWE:
```
\begin{filecontents}{test-bib.bib}
@article{test,

\addbibresource{test-bib.bib}
\begin{document}
\cite{test}

```
Compiling this once with Ctrl+B runs pdflatex, biber, pdflatex, pdflatex and gives the error:
```
Package biblatex Warning: The following entry could not be found(biblatex) in the database:(biblatex) bibid(biblatex) Please verify the spelling and rerun(biblatex) LaTeX afterwards.
LaTeX Warning: Citation 'bibid' on page 1 undefined on input line 18.
```
Immediately compiling again with Ctrl+B runs pdflatex, bibtex, pdflatex, pdflatex and gives the error:
```
LaTeX Warning: Citation 'test' on page 1 undefined on input line 17.
LaTeX Warning: Citation 'bibid' on page 1 undefined on input line 18.
LaTeX Warning: Empty bibliography on input line 20.
LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:(biblatex) test_bib(biblatex) and rerun LaTeX afterwards.
```
Compiling again reruns with biber and cycles through the two options.
The expected output should instead be the error:
```
LaTeX Warning: Citation 'bibid' on page 1 undefined on input line 18.
LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:(biblatex) test_bib(biblatex) and rerun LaTeX afterwards.
```
and that pressing Ctrl+B would rerun with biber.
I have tried both the traditional, basic and simple builders - they all give this result.
How do I fix this? Alternatively, is there a way of forcing a compile with biber?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/293590 | Sublime text changing from biber to bibtex upon error | true | As it stands there are potential pitfalls with all of the simple/traditional/basic builders in [LaTeXTools](https://github.com/SublimeText/LaTeXTools/)
The [simple builder](https://github.com/SublimeText/LaTeXTools/blob/b27fc391b2e0c7298d7e2be2472f3642e25ed3d2/builders/simpleBuilder.py) always runs `bibtex`. This cannot be used with `biber` and will mess up any previous `biber` compilations.
The [traditional builder](https://github.com/SublimeText/LaTeXTools/blob/b27fc391b2e0c7298d7e2be2472f3642e25ed3d2/builders/traditionalBuilder.py) runs `texify` if it detects MiKTeX on Windows, otherwise it uses `latexmk`. I believe `texify` will only ever compile `bibtex`, however `latexmk` should reliably auto-compile `biber`.
The [basic builer](https://github.com/SublimeText/LaTeXTools/blob/b27fc391b2e0c7298d7e2be2472f3642e25ed3d2/builders/basicBuilder.py) (which seems the most complex as it tries to manage everything itself) will run `bibtex` or `biber` as long as there is a citation undefined warning in the log.
Unfortunately it will run `bibtex` unless the log file explicitly contains a warning from [`biblatex`](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex) to rerun `biber`, which is not sufficient.
In your example, after `biber` has been run, it places in the `.bbl` file a note that the reference `bibid` was missing from the supplied bib files, so [`biblatex`](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex) just logs the citation as not found, it knows `biber` has been run and failed to find the log file so just re-running `biber` won't help.
Then, finding a "citation undefined" warning but this time no "(re)run biber" warning, the basic builder executes `bibtex` which breaks the bibliography, but returns the "(re)run biber" notice, hence the return to running `biber` on the subsequent compilation.
Obviously you can just run `biber` on the command line as necessary, but all three of the builders will try and fix any undefined citation errors, which is liable to trigger a `bibtex` run, breaking the bibliography.
<https://latextools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/available-builders/#script-builder> seems to allow you to provide your own set of compilation instructions which would appear to allow you to set a compilation that always run `pdflatex` then `biber` then `pdlfatex`.

Here is a minimal example how I include source code (completely, with minimal java code, on [GitHub](https://github.com/MartinThoma/LaTeX-examples/tree/master/documents/source-code-minted)):
```
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % this is needed for german umlauts
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel} % this is needed for german umlauts
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % this is needed for correct output of umlauts in pdf
\usepackage{minted} % needed for the inclusion of source code
\begin{document}
\section{Section}
\subsection{MySubSection}
\begin{frame}{Blubtitle}
\inputminted[linenos=true, numbersep=5pt, tabsize=4, fontsize=\small]{java}{IataCode.java}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
```
When I copy the results, I get this:
```
public class IataCode {
public static void printIATACodes(String[] myArray) {
for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {
System.out.println(myArray[i]);
}
}
7
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] iataCodes = new String[4];
// Flughafen München
iataCodes[0] = "MUC";
// Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg
iataCodes[1] = "BER";
// Flughafen Augsburg
iataCodes[2] = "AGB";
printIATACodes(iataCodes);
}
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15
16

}
```
But I would like to get this:
```
public class IataCode {
public static void printIATACodes(String[] myArray) {
for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {
System.out.println(myArray[i]);
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] iataCodes = new String[4];
// Flughafen München
iataCodes[0] = "MUC";
// Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg
iataCodes[1] = "BER";
// Flughafen Augsburg
iataCodes[2] = "AGB";
printIATACodes(iataCodes);
}
}
```
So, I basicly want to know if I can achieve [this](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/30310/5645) (see [compiled PDF and minimal source code example](https://github.com/MartinThoma/LaTeX-examples/tree/master/documents/source-code-listings) to try it yourself) for minted, too.

The problem lies in the length of the first author: "Research Data Archive, Computational and Information Systems Laboratory, National Center for Atmospheric Research, University Corporation for Atmospheric Research".
Among other things, the LaTeX engine in Overleaf raises the following error: "you've exceeded 250, the entry-string-size, for entry ds548.0". But even apart from that, an author-year citation that uses the first author as shown will look ungainly in print.
My question is whether there's a way to preserve the "author" information in the citation as it appears in the bibliography at the end while shortening the citation as it appears in the body of the text and also circumventing the 250-character limit. Note that AGU publications only permit the \cite and \citeA commands, and they don't permit \nocite, which precludes one possible workaround.
I'm using the journal-supplied document class 'agujournal2019', which in turn appears to use the 'apacite' bibliography style.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/25086 | How can I sanely format a problem .bib entry? | true | Since you employ the `apacite` citation management package -- with the option `natbibapa`, right? -- and the eponymous bibliography style, I suggest you make use of natbib's citation aliasing capabilities. E.g., run
```
\defcitealias{ds548.0}{Research Data Archive et~al. (2016)}
```
in the preamble and
```
\citetalias{ds548.0}
```
in the body of the document.
A separate comment: For an entry of type `@misc`, all bibliography styles I'm aware of know what to do if they encounter a field called `howpublished`; however, none of them are programmed to handle a field called `publisher`. I would therefore rename the `publisher` field to `howpublished`. I'd also copy the contents of the `address` field into the `howpublished` field, and I'd encase the contents of the `title` field in a pair of curly braces, to prevent the field's contents from being converted to lowercase. (If nothing else, you should encase the ICOADS acronym in curly braces.)
The following screenshot shows the resulting citation call-out and the first three lines of the associated formatted bibliographic entry.

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/282391 | Text wrapping inside table using p{} specification | false | If you plan to create more complex tables, consider using `tblr` environment from `tabularray`. It has much simplified interface. For instance, I have added alternating colours in rows each columns to your table.
You could define global colours and use their names across the table with tints, instead of repeating absolute values in cells.
If the middle column contains long texts, it might look better in a wider column. Additionally, consider loading `microtype` package to improve texts in narrower environments.
Here's slightly altered table:

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680608 | 1 | Running latexdiff-vc -r rev1 -r rev2 file.tex --pdf produces a pdf highlighting the changes in the tex but it does not show the changes in the bibliography. Is there something that needs to be enabled for this to work?
My tex file uses bibtex i.e.,
\bibliographystyle{IEEEtran}
\bibliography{references}
where the bibliography file is references.bib.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/72111 | latexdiff-vc does not show differences in the bibliography | false | In order to make this possible you need to make sure to include the .bbl file in the repository, i.e., keep track of the revisions of that file. Note that this deviates from normal procedure; as the .bbl file is derived one would normally not revise it separately. If you have done this then
```
latexdiff-vc --flatten -r rev1 -r rev2 file.tex --pdf
```
should show changes to the bibliography, too (although some bibliography styles do not play well with latexdiff, see [the .bbl file generated by latexdiff causes errors](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/545079/the-bbl-file-generated-by-latexdiff-causes-errors?rq=1) for further hints
).
Otherwise, it will get more complicated, and you are probably best off retrieving the two revisions and bbl files for the two revisions manually. Note that you can generally (depending on bibliography style) run latexdiff separately on the bbl files.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/673676 | 0 | I want to know if the following is allowed, not just in LaTeX, but in some "writing rules", I guess it's a typography matter or some kind of, maybe it could be even different between publications types, anyway I'm writing a thesis.
The example is:
```
\section{Section}
\subsection{Subsection}
\par Thesis content only here...
```
So the output will be like:
>
> 1.1 Section
>
>
> 1.1.1 Subsection
>
>
> Thesis content only here...
>
>
>
Is the "blank content" between section and subsection a bad practice or not?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/288553 | Could there be a blank space between a section and a subsection? | false | I'd say it is the normal situation.
Your `\par` after `\subsection` is odd though, although it does nothing.
Section headings commands, even run-in headings like `\paragraph` always end in vertical mode so a following blank line (or `\par`) does nothing.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680682 | 0 | I'm in the process of trying to understand how `l3build` tests work.
For this, I created the files of [this question](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/329743/18401) and here is my sandbox directory:
```
$ tree

├── doublefoo.sty
└── testfiles
├── Versuch2.lve

where `Versuch.lvt` is the one [rectified by Joseph Wright](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/329767/18401):
```

Now, the command `texlua build.lua save Versuch` fails with the error:

Why this test cannot be run and how to run it?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/18401 | Impossible to run l3build tests | true | Do not run
```
texlua build.lua save Versuch
```
use
```
l3build save Versuch
```
Also remove
```
kpse.set_program_name("kpsewhich")
dofile(kpse.lookup("l3build.lua"))
```
Very early versions of l3build required the first form
your `build.lua` just needs one line and can be, in full:
```
module = "doublefoo"

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/452498 | 1 | The command `\tcolorboxenvironment` can modify an environment to change the way it appears and add around it some graphical elements (background color, etc.)
From the doc:
```
\newenvironment{myitemize}
{\begin{itemize}}
{\end{itemize}}
\tcolorboxenvironment{myitemize}{blanker,
before skip=6pt,
after skip=6pt,
borderline west={3mm}{0pt}{red}}
```
I wonder if it is possible to cancel such an alteration of the `myitemize` environment.
My goal is to have an environment that can be customised when some "variables" are put to "True" and otherwise left in their "original" form.
Presently, I want to be able to put a background color to the environment, depending on the value of some "variables".
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/8323 | Cancel the modification of an environment by `\tcolorboxenvironment` | false | The definition of `\tcolorboxenvironment` is
```
\newcommand{\tcolorboxenvironment}[2]{%
\AddToHook{env/#1/before}{%
\begin{tcolorbox}[savedelimiter={#1},#2,wrap@environment,%
code={\def\tcb@end@tcolorboxenvironment{\end{tcolorbox}}}]%
}%
\AddToHook{env/#1/after}{%
\tcb@end@tcolorboxenvironment%
}%
}
```
So applying `\RemoveFromHook` before and after the environment should do the trick.
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[skins]{tcolorbox}
\newenvironment{myitemize}
{\begin{itemize}}
{\end{itemize}}
\tcolorboxenvironment{myitemize}{blanker,
before skip=6pt,
after skip=6pt,

\begin{document}
\begin{myitemize}

\RemoveFromHook{env/myitemize/before}
\RemoveFromHook{env/myitemize/after}
\begin{myitemize}
\item text
\item more text
\end{myitemize}
\end{document}
```
For convenience you can also define a command that removes the hooks:
```
\newcommand{\untcolorboxenvironment}[1]{
\RemoveFromHook{env/#1/before}
\RemoveFromHook{env/#1/after}
}
```
Then replace the `\RemoveFromHook`'s in the document above with `\untcolorboxenvironment{myitemize}`.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680691 | 3 | In my answer to [this question](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/680688/208544), something occurred that I don't understand about the hook system. If the code that adds a hook is directly in the main tex file (`\tcolorboxenvironment` in this example), it works as I expect:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[skins]{tcolorbox}
\newenvironment{myitemize}
{\begin{itemize}}
{\end{itemize}}
\tcolorboxenvironment{myitemize}{blanker,
before skip=6pt,

\begin{document}
\begin{myitemize}
\item text
\item more text
\end{myitemize}
\RemoveFromHook{env/myitemize/before}
\RemoveFromHook{env/myitemize/after}
\begin{myitemize}
\item text
\item more text
\end{myitemize}
\end{document}
```
produces one list with a red border, one without. Note the definition of `\tcolorboxenvironment`:
```
\newcommand{\tcolorboxenvironment}[2]{%
\AddToHook{env/#1/before}{%
\begin{tcolorbox}[savedelimiter={#1},#2,wrap@environment,%
code={\def\tcb@end@tcolorboxenvironment{\end{tcolorbox}}}]%
}%
\AddToHook{env/#1/after}{%
\tcb@end@tcolorboxenvironment%
}%
}
```
However if I move this code into `mytest.sty`:
```
\ProvidesPackage{mytest}
\RequirePackage[skins]{tcolorbox}
\newenvironment{myitemize}
{\begin{itemize}}
{\end{itemize}}
\tcolorboxenvironment{myitemize}{blanker,
before skip=6pt,
after skip=6pt,
borderline west={3mm}{0pt}{red}}
```
then try
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{mytest}
\begin{document}
\begin{myitemize}
\item text
\item more text
\end{myitemize}
\RemoveFromHook{env/myitemize/before}
\RemoveFromHook{env/myitemize/after}
\begin{myitemize}
\item text
\item more text
\end{myitemize}
\end{document}
```
I get both lists having a red border. What difference should it make if the code is in a package or directly in the preamble?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/208544 | \RemoveFromHook not working as expected if code placed in package file | true |
You need the package label as the default label is `mytest` inside the package, but `top-level` outside.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680678 | 1 | Am posting two in one as I suspect these may be related. Following on from [my previous question](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680665/tikz-changing-node-background-colour), I am putting them in a matrix:

This produces an error at the end of the matrix:
```
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> \pgf@matrix@last@nextcell@options

```
And if I try to remove the inner `\tikz` command, as suggested in the answer to the linked question, I get another error:
```

There is a third problem also, that the echelon symbol (ie XX for division) is put too far away vertically. This seems to happen only in matrix.
Any ideas anybody?

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680678 | 1 | Am posting two in one as I suspect these may be related. Following on from [my previous question](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680665/tikz-changing-node-background-colour), I am putting them in a matrix:

\newcommand\labeltextof[1]{\csname labeltextof@#1\endcsname}
\newcommand{\aftercolorof}[2]{% #1 is the color, #2 us the node
\path (#2.center) node[#1] (#2-2) {\labeltextof{#2}};
}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}

\\
};
%\aftercolorof{red}{nA}
\end{tikzpicture}

```
This produces an error at the end of the matrix:
```
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> \pgf@matrix@last@nextcell@options
l.33 }
;
? x
```
And if I try to remove the inner `\tikz` command, as suggested in the answer to the linked question, I get another error:
```
! LaTeX Error: Environment scope undefined.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...
l.25 ...elon=division,main=armoured,fill=green]{}}
;
?
```
There is a third problem also, that the echelon symbol (ie XX for division) is put too far away vertically. This seems to happen only in matrix.
Any ideas anybody?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/123965 | Tikz milsymbs in a matrix, with colours (getting errors) | true | The commands that `milsymb` provide seem to be ordinary TikZ drawings, you can just put those in the cells of a matrix.
The package doesn't provide nice interfaces to change various things but in your case it's as easy as using just the ordinary TikZ keys `/tikz/color` and `/tikz/nodes` (which is a shortcut to `/tikz/every node/.append style`).
In the second example, I've used my own definition of `/MilSymb/color` that forwards its argument to TikZ and its nodes.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/116670 | 28 | When I want to globally modify a command in my document, I will often use a duplicated version of the original in the stencil, with the help of the `\let` macro. For example, if I wanted to do something every time I created a section, I might say:
```
\let\svsection\section
\renewcommand\section[1]{\mychanges\svsection{#1}}
```
It just dawned on me that I don't know how or if something similar can be done for environments. What I would hope for is something like (I'm omitting arguments for the sake of simplicity, don't focus on that):
```
\let\svfigure\figure
\renewenvironment{figure}{\blahblah\begin{svfigure}}
{\end{svfigure}\moreblah}
```
Of course, this syntax won't work because `\figure` isn't a command.
But, I was hoping that the creation of environment `abc` would always be accompanied by the creation of associated constructed commands, for example, `\start@abc` and `\end@abc`, such that these associated commands could be `\let` to duplicate the original environment.
I also realize that one approach may be to "patch" the original environment, but I don't think that is really what I'm asking, since I'm not sure a patch can be easily undone, whereas redoing a `\let` in the opposite direction (e.g., `\let\section\svsection`) will totally undo the effects of redefinition.
It would be a handy feature to know how to duplicate an environment, so that the original copy can be `\renew`ed in the fashion I describe.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/25858 | Duplicating Environments | false | `\NewCommandCopy` works. However, it has the disadvantage of requiring annoying syntax when e.g. environment name containing `*` is needed.
You can implement your own `\NewEnvironmentCopy` as follows (in newer LaTeX kernels `\NewEnvironmentCopy` is built-in so it may be a better idea to use `\ProvideDocumentCommand` that will silently fallback to use the existing command if it's already defined):
```
%! TEX program = lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\NewDocumentEnvironment{test}{m}{hello #1}{end #1}
\begin{test}{aaa}
environment body
\end{test}
\ExplSyntaxOn
\ProvideDocumentCommand \NewEnvironmentCopy {mm} {
\expandafter \NewCommandCopy \csname#1\expandafter\endcsname \csname#2\endcsname
\expandafter \NewCommandCopy \csname end#1\expandafter\endcsname \csname end#2\endcsname
}
\ProvideDocumentCommand \RenewEnvironmentCopy {mm} {
\expandafter \RenewCommandCopy \csname#1\expandafter\endcsname \csname#2\endcsname
\expandafter \RenewCommandCopy \csname end#1\expandafter\endcsname \csname end#2\endcsname
}
\ExplSyntaxOff
\NewEnvironmentCopy{testb}{test}
\RenewEnvironmentCopy{testb}{test}
\NewEnvironmentCopy{oldalign*}{align*}
\begin{testb}{aaa}
environment body
\end{testb}
\RenewDocumentEnvironment{test}{m}{redefined #1}{stop #1}
\begin{testb}{aaa}
environment body
\end{testb}
\begin{oldalign*}
1 &= 1
\end{oldalign*}
\end{document}
```
Note that if you use `\let` instead of `\NewCommandCopy` then the behavior would be different and unexpected (try it yourself).
---
Alternatively (which may or may not be applicable depends on the specific use case), you can use the hook system in LaTeX:
```
%! TEX program = lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\AddToHook{env/align*/begin}{x}
\AddToHook{env/align*/end}{y}
\begin{align*}
1 &= 1 \\
2 &= 2
\end{align*}
\end{document}
```

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/42301 | 10 | I am in constant search for an alternative to LaTeX, but it seems I am stuck for it for a long time, and I am trying to see the bright side of it.
The other day one thought struck me, I think, LaTeX is missing many reasonable defaults, especially math environment. For example, it is very unlikely that you have three variables named `l`, `o` and `g` at the same time, and you are writing product of those three variables in that order. But still you have to write `\log` to indicate you meant the function `log()`. In other words, when someone writes `log`, they (almost) always mean the `log` function.
Same is true for parentheses and braces, in math environment when one uses a parenthesis again they most probably mean a `\left(`. I know, I can introduce my own `\(` commands but again they are not by default.
Because I am using LaTeX mostly for math typesetting, I am only aware of those kind of non-defaults. My question is why are the things are not designed such that these most basic, fundamental things are not handled by default? I read that Knuth is considered math typesetting specialist, he should have noticed these burdens while he is using TeX in my opinion.

Basically for each multi-letter word it checks whether the control sequence is "defined" and replace it with the control sequence.
For `\left( ... \right)` it's a bit more complicated to implement, but in theory it's also implementable, see <https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/31529/250119> for an example.

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/25858 | Duplicating Environments | false | If you're using LaTeX 2023-06-01 or later1, the commands `\NewEnvironmentCopy`, `\RenewEnvironmentCopy`, and `\DeclareEnvironmentCopy` are built into the kernel, so you can use:
```
\NewEnvironmentCopy{<new env>}{<existing env>}
```
to make a copy. This will work regardless if the environment was defined using `\newenvironment` or `\NewDocumentEnvironment`. This method should be preferred over using `\let`, because it won't fail in case the environment takes optional arguments or things like that.
The same release adds `\ShowEnvironment{<env>}` to see the definition of an environment on the terminal.

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/nan | Multiple Long table single page in two column mode? | false | Here's another solution that builds on a lot of guesswork as the OP hasn't specified lots of important document parameters (such as the document class, with width and height of the textblock, the document font and font size, etc). The solution employs the `xltabular` package and its eponymous environment, which combines the strengths of the `longtable` and `tabularx` environments. It also employs the `afterpage` package to delay the start of the single-column material until the start of the next page.
Note that I've also eliminated the table's vertical lines as they don't do anything useful. Automatic line breaking is enabled in three of the four columns, as that's what's needed to be able to fit the table inside the textblock. And, for further make it easy to discern cell contents and cell boundaries, hanging indentation of lines beyond the first line in a cell is enabled as well.

I followed the first steps for tex4ebook this weekend for the first time and got close to the finish. I follow a discussion here some years after the origin, and tried using tex4ebook. I think a last step seems not to work.
The last run of tex4ebook gives a problem with the encoding of german special characters, like ä, ü, ä, ß in the \index{Abhängigkeiten}.
In the .ind file you find this: Which says that xindy worked fine.

Obviously the character ä is omitted and give the problem.

I installed notepad++ editor and converted my sourcename.tex (which had been in ansinew encoding) all in utf8 encoding. And additionally changed the ansinew encoding of the sourcename.tex in `\usepackage[utf8]{ìnputenc}` which solved the problem here addressed.

It gives a correct output in the epub file, only if I ignore the following error message:
```

I would like to know how I can fix the error with getting the same correct output. Does anybody know what to do?
Update 1:
The `sample.tex` file looks minimized like this:
```

```
The `myconfig.cfg` file is as follows:
```
\Preamble{xhtml}
\begin{document}
\Configure{DocumentLanguage}{de}

```
As a result there is still the above error message, but the epub file seems correct with hyperlinks made.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680757 | 0 | I thought the new installation of TeXLive 2023 seemed to have set everything needed, but I have discovered a problem with the systems path variable. I worked before with TeXLive 2022 and now both path settings (for 2022 and 2023) are shown with the informative path command.
The problem arises since my running of tex4ebook showed that it is directed to the TeXLive 2022 installation and not the new one of 2023, which I need to get out of an error.
I looked up in the path setting of Win11 and removed the bin path for TeXLive 2022, started the computer anew, found that it is now not shown in the menu for path settings under Win11. But when I go to the TeX command line and look for the PATH variables, the path for TeXLive 2022 is still there.
Do I need to remove TeXLive 2022? Will this remove the path and get me access to TexLive 2023?

spurious, as in `$x}$'. But perhaps the } is legitimate and
you forgot something else, as in `\hbox{$x}'. In such cases
the way to recover is to insert both the forgotten and the

With luck, this will get me unwedged. But if you
really didn't forget anything, try typing `2' now; then
my insertion and my current dilemma will both disappear.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680752 | 0 | I' writing a test macro to evaluate the Lettrine arguments for
different letters & different sizes (lines). The scenario is this:
1. The main prog calls a one arg macro to test the Lettrine for a given letter: `\TestLettrine{A}`
2. The `\TestLettrine` macro calls another macro to get the right options passing it the letter & the size (line numbers) to pass it to Lettrine:
`\LettrineOpts{A}{3}`.
When I compile this (I'm using LuaLatex) I get the message:
```
! Argument of \xs_IfStringCase_ii has an extra }.
<inserted text>
\par
l.179 \TestLettrine{A}
```
Ran it on Overleaf got more errors including the one mentioned here.
Here's my MWE:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lettrine}
\usepackage{xstring}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\newcommand{\LettrineOpts}[2]{%
\IfStrEqCase{#1}{%
{A}{lines=#2,lraise=0.1,slope=0.6em}%
{C}{lines=#2,findent=0.1em,nindent=0.18em,slope=-0.5em}
}%
}%
\newcommand{\TestLettrine}[1]{%
\providecommand{\opts}{\LettrineOpts{#1}{3}}
Opts for char #1 and size 3:\\ \opts
\lettrine[\opts]{#1}{}3 lines (\opts). One liner.
\let\opts\relax
\vspace*{3ex}
\providecommand{\opts}{\LettrineOpts{#1}{4}}
Opts for char #1 and size 4:\\ \opts
\lettrine[\opts]{#1}{}4 lignes. \\ \lipsum
\let\opts\relax
\vspace*{3ex}
}%
\begin{document}
\TestLettrine{A} \par
\TestLettrine{C}
% covering all the letters
\end{document}
```
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/282784 | Write a tester for Lettrine options for each letter/size | false | Your code generates another error and does not allow me to play the size variation
(lines=n).
In the meantime I found another solution which I'm going to adopt. It uses the
Lettrine config file where I can define the options for every char I want. I though
initially that defining the size will override those definitions. Which is not the
case. Lettrine MERGES my options with those already in the config file.
Excellent work of Daniel Flipo!
In case this solution might help someone here is the snippets of the final code.
Config file (options.cfl):
```
\LettrineOptionsFor{A}{slope=0.1\LettrineWidth, findent=-.5em, nindent=.7em}
\LettrineOptionsFor{À}{slope=0.1\LettrineWidth, findent=-.5em, nindent=0.7em}
\LettrineOptionsFor{V}{slope=-0.1\LettrineWidth, lhang=0.5, nindent=0pt}
\LettrineOptionsFor{C'}{nindent=-0.5em}
\LettrineOptionsFor{Q}{loversize=-0.1, lraise=0.1}
```
And the macros and their call:
```
\newcommand{\blah}{\lipsum*[1-2][1-5]}
\newcommand{\TestLettrine}[1]{%
\lettrine[lines=3]{#1}{} lines: 3 \\ \blah
\vspace*{3ex}
\lettrine[lines=4]{#1}{} lines: 4 \\ \blah
\clearpage
}%
\newcommand{\TestAllLettrines}{%
\foreach \char in {A, À, C', Q, V }{%
\TestLettrine{\char} \par%
}%
}%
\TestAllLettrines
```
The options are given for the example.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680762 | 0 | To be honest, I do not really understand the documentation of the `bmpsize` package.
I have it on older sources but without reference why it was needed.
So my first question is why it is needed,
because seemingly all what I compile works fine without it.
Is the background maybe creating dvi files? or using htlatex or something?
The second question is why compilation with `xelatex` fails
if applied to this minimal example:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{bmpsize}

Test

The core seems `! Package bmpsize Error: You need pdfTeX 1.30.0 or newer.`
Well, I do have pdftex much newer and `xelatex` does not rely on `pdftex`, does it?
So, does this hint mean, that bmpsize is needed for pdflatex only??
What about `lualatex`?
I checked the version of xelatex:
```

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/135484 | 31 | I have read all the related questions and taken all the suggested steps (well, the ones that had anything to do with my situation since for example I am not using `XeLaTeX`). As far as I can see, this file ought to produce a pdf with one citation in it and a bibliography with that entry.
```
\documentclass{amsart}
\usepackage[]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{refs.bib}
\begin{document}
\cite{FefCF}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
```
Instead it produces a pdf with the name `FefCF` printed in boldface and no bibliography.
I am using `TeXworks` and have run both `BibTeX` and pdfLaTex+MakeIndex+BibTeX repeatedly in many combinations.
To be clear, the reference FefCF is indeed in the file refs.bib (and has been used many time with `BibTeX`) and it is in the same folder as this file, namely `C:/Users/Colin/Documents/TeX Files`. I have also tried the full location name `C:/Users/Colin/Documents/TeX Files/refs.bib` to specify the bib resource. That makes no difference.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/37424 | Biblatex still won't print bibliography | false | For some reason, they above answers did not work for me. So I provide an alternative, in case others experience the same issue:
Files:
```
report.tex
refs.bib
```
The relevant sections from `report.tex`:
```
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
% For using bibtex
%
% The `noadjust` parameter turns off the behaviour when this package
% inserts spaces before references.
\usepackage[noadjust]{cite}
\begin{document}
% ...
\bibliography{refs}{}
\bibliographystyle{alpha}
\end{document}
```
The compilation command is two-fold, that is I need to compile both with `pdflatex` and with `bibtex` - both are done from the (Linux-)terminal:
```
pdflatex report.tex
bibtex report.aux
pdflatex report.tex
```
This will, in my case, compile the reference database and properly display a list of references in the pdf-output.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680785 | 3 | I wanted to make a shape called "dynamometer" like rectangle, circle or so on with some anchors and options. But I can't figure out how to achieve such goal.
I've taken the dynamometer shape from this [topic](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/630364/dynamometer-ask-for-improvement-suggestions) and to make it a shape I've some questions.
1. How to declare a shape for TikZ? Such that I'm allowed to write `\node[dynamo, rectangle, F={65~N}] at (5,0)`.
2. In a declared shape, how to create nodes?
3. In a declared shape, how to define options as "rectangle" or "F={65~N}"?
Here is "my" MWE :

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/169294 | Dynamometer - Creating custom shapes with anchor and options | true | You could create a node shape (you might want to look into the PGF/Ti*k*Z manual to learn about how to do this in general) if you want to reuse this drawing several times (what I assume is your aim actually), but I am not sure whether a shape is flexible enough to meet your requirements. In my opinion, it is better to create a `pic` from it, since it would allow you to change the marker position easily:

I don't know what unit the scale displays, so I opted for a neutral `marker position` as option to the pic.

This works well, but the local TOC only includes the elements from within the chapter (which I guess is usually exactly what you want). But instead, I would like the local TOC to include everyting from the parts level. Is there any way to do that?
Using `\etocsetnexttocdepth` unfortunately doesn't work and calling `\localtableofcontents` without `\setchapterpreamble` will create a local TOC with the corect scope, but it will be printed on its own page.

You need some way to generate automatically this mark-up with some suitable lables, for example `\label{part:1}`, but then you will need your chapter to know in which part it is. Ok I tested with `\the\value{part}` both to generate the label and use as reference for chapters in that part, and it appears to work indeed.

Update: the above is for using `\part`. It will fail with `\part*`. Then use rather than `\the\value{part}` something such as `\the\value{mycounter}` having done `\newcounter{mycounter}` and issuing `\stepcounter{mycounter}` or `\refstepcounter{mycounter}` at each `\part*`. You can also do `\refstepcounter{part}` as you mention in a comment but this appears to be reasonable only if you include only unnumbered parts in the document, else the numbering of the numbered ones will get shifted. Beware that `\part*` may have another issue of not correctly delimiting the local table of contents according to the [etoc](https://ctan.org/pkg/etoc) documentation, section `21. The \etocsetlocaltop.toc and \etocimmediatesetlocaltop.toc commands`. I have not tested and your comment (I don't know how to link to it) seemingly indicates you had no issues, but you may have to do things such as that for unnumbered parts, which I found looking for `part*` in the [etoc](https://ctan.org/pkg/etoc) documentation.
```
\part*{Extra unnumbered part}
\etocsetlocaltop.toc{part}
\invisiblelocaltableofcontents
```
In retrospect as your comment seemed to indicate all ok, maybe this is not needed and possibly even detrimental.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680805 | 3 | The command `\DeclarePairedDelimiter` (from the `mathtools` package) allows to use the delimiter size commands `\big,\Big,\bigg,\Bigg`, and allows to define custom paired delimiters. For example, the macro`\DeclarePairedDelimiter{\Paren}{\lparen}{\rparen}` (which uses the `mathtools` commands `\lparen` and `\rparen`) allows to write expressions like `\Paren[\Bigg]{x}`, whose output is the letter "x" enclosed by the biggest parentheses (not a very interesting example of "custom" paired delimiters, of course).
However, sometimes one might want to invoke the custom opening and closing delimiters with independent commands: for example, I prefer this whenever the content between the delimiters is too long, like
```
\customleftdelimiter A very long math expression \customrightdelimiter
```
instead of
```
\customdelimiter{A very long long math expression}
```
In the `mathtools` user manual (version 2022/06/29), p. 28, one reads:

The problem is that no instructions are given to do this. Perhaps a `DeclareOpeningDelimiter` command exists, but it is not described in the `mathtools` documentation.
Question
========
How to define the `\fool` and `\foor` commands, **in the spirit of the** `mathtools` **package**?
**Note:** This is a rephrasing of a previous question I asked, which I deleted because it was mixed with another issue (I will ask a separate question about that).
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/32352 | Definition of individual (nonpaired) delimiters with mathtools | false | You can use `\customldel` and `\customrdel` to define left and right delimiters. The left delimiter can take a parameter like `\big` in order to scale the delimiter and whatever right delimiter it is paired with.
You need to match up left and right delimiters (ie. every custom left delimiter must be paired with a custom right delimiter), but you can use the predefined `\lempty` and `\rempty` custom delimiters for null delimiters (`\lempty` can also be used to set the scale of whatever right delimiter it is paired with).
```
\documentclass{article}
\def\noscale#1{\ifx.#1 \else#1\fi}
\makeatletter
\def\mstrip{\expandafter\@gobble\string}
\let\customscale=\noscale
\def\customldel#1#2{%
\expandafter\def\csname \mstrip#1@help\endcsname[##1]{%
\begingroup%
\edef\customscale{\expandafter\noexpand\csname \mstrip##1r\endcsname}%
\csname \mstrip##1l\endcsname{#2}%
}%
\def#1{\@ifnextchar[ {\csname \mstrip#1@help\endcsname}%
{\begingroup\let\customscale=\noscale#2}}%
}
\def\customrdel#1#2{%
\def#1{\customscale{#2}\endgroup}%
}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\customldel{\lempty}.
\customrdel{\rempty}.
\customldel{\lcparen}(
\customrdel{\rcparen})
\[ \lempty[\bigg]\lcparen[\big] a\lcparen b\rempty c \rcparen\rcparen \]
\[ \bigl( a(b c \bigr) \biggr) \]
\end{document}
```
This works by storing the current amount of scale in a register `\customscale`, which is reverted after a custom right delimiter. `\noscale` is used in the case that there is no scaling, and it checks for the null delimiter (`.`) and prints if not.

For each left delimiter, the requested size is saved in a global token list variable, so it can be used at the matching right delimiter. If you forget some, you're doomed…

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680811 | 2 | When i click update wizard, it says "MiKTeX encountered an internal error."
This is why I can’t load any packages automatically.
What is the solution????
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/285645 | MiKTeX encountered an internal error | false | It is possible (only possible!) that this is a temporary issue with TeXlive databases.
TeXlive was updated from 2022 to 2023 within the past week. Normally, a TeXlive 2022 user (including MiKTeX, if that version) will get a message saying that TeXlive is frozen for 2022, so no updates are available.
I just tried the Linux equivalent to MiKTeX update. Instead of the usual frozen message, I get an error saying that cryptographic signatures are wrong. That is unusual.
This suggests that there is a temporary problem with the package databases.
If so, it is the kind of thing that will "sooner or later" be fixed by the mirrors.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680823 | 4 | I hope this is not a duplicate; I tried to search around and didn't find anything, but perhaps I used the wrong keywords. I'm using Plain TeX and have the following defined:
```
\newskip\hugeskipamount
\hugeskipamount=24pt plus 8pt minus 8pt
\def\hugeskip{\vskip\hugeskipamount}
```
This is all fine and well, however sometimes when I have
```
A
\hugeskip
B
```
and B starts a new page, the `vskip` disappears at the bottom of the page, and the page becomes all streched out, giving an underfull `vbox`. Is there a way to define `hugeskip` in such a way that if it turns up at the end of a page, it just functions like a `vfill`, i.e., there'll be a bit of a gap at the end of the page (which I find better than increased gaps between paragraphs). Thanks!
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/216667 | Defining a vskip that possibly becomes vfill | true | Your question would have been clearer with an example but if I understand correctly
```
\def\hugeskip{\vskip\hugeskipamount\filbreak}
```
`\filbreak` is plain macro `\vfil\penalty-200\vfilneg` so normally it does nothing but if a page break happens at the penalty you get vfil at the bottom of the page, the `\vfilneg` is discarded before the next page starts.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680841 | 0 | I am currently using Miktex and Texstudio on Mac, how should I configure it in "Commands" so it also downloads the missing packages on the fly? If you can share the configs or a screenshot of the config details, that would be really helpful!
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/293696 | How to config TexStudio on Mac when I am using Miktex? | false | `TeXStudio` uses the packages loaded by `MikTeX`, so it's `MikTeX` you need to configure to add additional packages on-the-fly. To do that follow these steps:
1. open the `MikTeX Console`
2. go to the `Settings` option (bottom one in sidebar)
3. in the tab `General` you'll see three choices how missing packages should be handled
4. choose either one of the first two as the last one won't install any packages automatically
Success!
*Answer to the link question*
1. open `TeXStudio`
2. click on `Help`
3. select the option `Check LaTeX installation`
4. A new document opens containing all relevant information about your system, the MikTeX installation, path, TeXStudio etc.
Usually TeXStudio locates the MikTeX installation automatically as MikTeX adds its main directory to the path.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680831 | 1 | Installed MacTex2023 on a new Mac and all is well except for a nagging issue with "pygmentize" that I've already installed. I cannot find how to adjust system to recognise the installed "pygmentize" that exists in my "/Users//Library/Python/3.9/bin" folder.
I have upgraded to Python 3.11 and used pip3 to confirm that Pygments 2.14.0 is installed.
I've already checked those SE pages that discuss Pygmentize issues, e.g. at [Pygmentize not working properly with minted package in TexShop on OS X](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/279214/pygmentize-not-working-properly-with-minted-package-in-texshop-on-os-x/281188#281188)
Additional specs via 'pip3 list':
Package Version

1. altgraph 0.17.2
2. future 0.18.2
3. macholib 1.15.2
4. pip 23.0.1
5. Pygments 2.14.0
6. setuptools 67.6.0
7. six 1.15.0
8. wheel 0.40.0
Note: When I run the following minimal LaTeX package, I see the same error:
```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{minted}
\begin{document}
\begin{minted}{c}
int main() {
printf("hello, world");
return 0;
}
\end{minted}
\end{document}
```
e.g.: 'Package minted Error: You must have `pygmentize' installed to use this package.'
Note 2: I Typeset to LaTeX using TexShop.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/213365 | Package minted Error: You must have `pygmentize' installed to use this package, while Pygments is already installed? | true | Eureka (I wish this would have been easier, e.g. from [this TeXShop
page](https://pages.uoregon.edu/koch/texshop/changes_3.html)).
Caveat: I tested this with a TeXShop 3.89 which is nowadays an old version.
To let TeXShop use `--shell-escape` for only one specific document you can:
* instead of hitting "Compile" (or whatever is English word), go to `Macros>Claus Gerhardt Macros` and then choose `pdflatexc`. It launches the compilation using `--shell-escape` flag. (I discovered that by digging into `~/Library/TeXShop/bin/`).
I tried many `% !TeX` variants such as `% !TEX TS-program="pdflatex --shell-escape"` but this fails, and perhaps there is a parameter `TS-program-options` but I stopped my search after above workaround.
But first you also need that TeXShop finds pygmentize.
An answer is given at <https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/281188/293669> which worked for me.
On my installation (which is a direct TeXLive install) I do not need the `sudo` so simply
```
ln -s "$(which pygmentize)" /Library/TeX/texbin/pygmentize
```
in Terminal.
Perhaps execute first `which pygmentize` and `pygmentize -V` to confirm it
is correctly installed, prior to symlink it to the directory where TeXShop
finds TeX binaries. The above should apply on MacTeX based installations.
For direct TeXLive installations on (old) Macs, replace
`/Library/TeX/texbin/pygmentize` by something such as
`/usr/local/texlive/2023/bin/x86_64-darwinlegacy/pygmentize`.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680872 | 2 | We all know that "restatable" package can help repeat theorems in exactly the same format. However, what I need is to restate a theorem while changing its name in the parentheses. For example, the original theorem displays like "Theorem 1 (Name Here)"; later when I restate it, I want "Theorem 1 (Restated)." Is it possible to achieve that?

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680303 | 2 | I want to optimize my CV to be ATS-friendly. Modern Applicant Tracking Systems use programmable stupidity to parse resumes and decide, whether present them to a human reader.
To my surprise I discovered that the engine LinkedIn uses accepts `from - to`, but not `from -- to`. That makes my beautiful *Experience* and *Education* section a lump of a madman gibberish instead of well-separated entries. That does not help when you are looking for a job. ;)
To address the issue I have tried the approach from <https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/442814/123888> :
```
FROM \protect\BeginAccSupp{ActualText=-}--\protect\EndAccSupp{} TO
```
that hides an n-dash form `pdftotext`, but not from `pdf2txt.py`.
As I have commented [the horse is still there](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/213950/123888).
The other problem is string replacement. I decided to define a macro `\cvdates` with tex code from <https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/213950/123888> (other answers does not work with n-dash):
```
\def\replace#1#2#3{%
\def\tmp##1#2{##1#3\tmp}%
\tmp#1\stopreplace#2\stopreplace}
\def\stopreplace#1\stopreplace{}
\newcommand{\cvdates}[1]{\replace{#1}{--}{\protect\BeginAccSupp{ActualText=-}--\protect\EndAccSupp{}}}
```
But then with
```
\cvdates{FROM2 -- TO2}
\cvdates{FROM3 --- TO3}
```
I get
```
FROM2 - TO2
FROM3 -- TO3
```
when I run `pdftotext test.pdf -`
One possible solution I can think about is to display `from -- to` to humans as graphics with an associated invisible text ([How do I create an invisible character?](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/4519/how-do-i-create-an-invisible-character)). But I have no idea how can I remove machine-readable text from `from -- to`.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/123888 | How to convert a dash (--/---) to a minus (-) for Applicant Tracking Systems only? | false | If you can compile with lualatex (or xetex) and use the `fontspec` package, you can do something like this MWE:
```
\documentclass{article}
\RequirePackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Latin Modern Roman}
\begin{document}
1984-2001\par
1984{\addfontfeature{FakeStretch=2.5}-}2001\par
\end{document}
```
The first line shows an ordinary hyphen. The second line has the hyphen stretched, so it looks like a dash. The fake dash looks correct in paper print, in a PDF Reader, and probably to OCR. But if text is extracted from the PDF, the fake dash is still a hyphen.
Another strategy would be to use a font editor, and stretch the hyphen. But this is not necessary, since `fontspec` does all that is needed.
If you cannot use `fontspec` then try what I suggested in a comment (above): Use a font editor, and change the width of the hyphen. Disadvantage is that it will then be long, everywhere a hyphen appears.
EDIT: At the request of the OP, I add that solution:
In preamble: `\RequirePackage{graphicx}` (or `\usepackage{graphicx`)
In document:
```
\protect\raisebox{0.44ex}{\scalebox{1.88}[0.35]{-}}
```
Both the original solution, and this edit,do something similar: They re-draw the shape of the glyph, but preserve its identity as hyphen.
EDIT2: The OP realized that `\scalebox` has a propblem with `pdftotext`
I firmly (VERY firmly) encourage the OP, and anyone with a similar issue, to use `lualatex` instead of `pdftex`. That requires using utf-8 characters (nowadays, standard). It requires loading package `fontspec` rather than `fontenc`. It requires NOT declaring `OT1` or any similar encoding. And, it requires OpenType or TrueType fonts, not Type 1. None of this is exotic. It does not require learning Lua programming. There are many math fonts that will work, and a wide choice of text fonts. Many Type 1 fonts have alternative OpenType formats.

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/288406 | Error in preamble while compiling | true | In Overleaf, I get three warnings (not errors):
1. Package caption Warning: Unknown document class (or package), standard defaults will be used. See the caption package documentation for explanation.
2. Unused global option(s):
3. jnrlst (dependency: not reversed) set 1
The caption warning is referring you to the [documentation](https://ctan.org/pkg/caption?lang=en). But it's also plain enough to read: (sub)caption isn't familiar with revtex4-2, and isn't making any guarantees about what will happen. (You can also cut out everything else in your preamble to verify that's the problem.) If you don't need the subcaption package, then take it out. If you do need to use it, then you'll need to ignore the warning, or tell TeX to ignore the warning.
Expanding the "Raw logs", we find that the unused global options are "border" and "article". Taking them out of the `\documentclass[options]` removes that warning.
For jnrlst, a web search for that string leads to <https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/567691/107497>, which says to add `\bibliographystyle{apsrev4-2}` to your preamble.
I will echo enkorvaks's comment that this appears to be a preamble that you've copied over (the two packages that have been `% added` at the end also point to that). If a copied preamble is giving you problems, are you sure you want to use it?

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680904 | 1 | I was wondering if there is a way to make a command to generate a BibLatex blank entry to be filled easily (instead of typing all the fields I need).
**Context to what I am thinking**:
I know JabRef and Zotero (the ones I use) produces the sort of entries according to the config./style I need, but, imagine that I just want to create my bibliog. entries directly in a .bib file. So, instead of writing:
```
@book{ ,
author = ,
title = ,
location = ,
etc ...,
}
```
I could type, **for example**, \book -- into a .bib file -- and then generate the type of entry (book, article, inbook, etc).
If there's a way, please, indicate me the way for achieving that. Ig there's not, thanks anyway.
Thanks.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/288236 | Is there a way to make a command to create blank BibLatex entry? | true | This would have to be a feature of the editor you use to create your `.bib` files. The `.bib` file syntax is fairly rigid and does not allow for macros and macro definitions in the same way `.tex` files do (which does not mean that you cannot use macros you have defined in your `.tex` document in your `.bib` file, mind).
There are plenty of editors out there ([LaTeX Editors/IDEs](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/339/35864)). Some will have a feature like this built in, others might allow you to install an external add-on/plug-in for the job, for another subset there might be no such function.
Just off the top of my head, the following editors can do this.
* TeXStudio has a feature to insert stubs of `.bib` entries via its *Bibliography* menu. (See <https://texstudio-org.github.io/advanced.html#bibliography.>)
* So does Texmaker (<https://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/doc.html#SECTION32>)
* Emacs has BibTeX mode to edit `.bib` file to insert stubs of `.bib` entries. (See <http://www.jonathanleroux.org/bibtex-mode.html>, [Library for generating bibtex entries](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/78656/35864), [Biblatex entries in bibtex-mode (emacs)](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/285904/35864.))

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680899 | 1 | When using an unnumbered part (`\part*`), added to TOC using `\addcontentsline`, the page number for the part page is wrong.
See this MWE :
```
\documentclass{book}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\part*{First part}
\addcontentsline{toc}{part}{First part}
\chapter{Chapter 1}
\end{document}
```
The "Part 1" page is page 3, but the TOC says 5, like the beginning of the first chapter. If we adds `hyperref` the anchor for the internal link will be similar (page 5 instead of page 3).
It seems basic, but I can't figure out how to fix this behavior, and to my surprise I've found no answer, here or in regular latex manuals… Does someone know what is going wrong here?
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/101712 | Wrong TOC page number with starred part + \addcontentsline | true | The problem comes from the fact that `\part*`, unlike `\chapter*`, not only starts a new page and prints the heading on it, it also starts another new page after the heading. In double-sided printing, this page remains empty, so another new page is started. Only then your `\addcontentsline` statement is executed and thus comes two pages too late.
To solve this, you should, as indicated in Ulrike's comment, first start a new right page, then place the `\addcontentsline` statement and only after that the heading with `\part*`:
```
\documentclass{book}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\cleardoublepage
\addcontentsline{toc}{part}{First part}
\part*{First part}
\chapter{Chapter 1}
\end{document}
```
`\addcontentsline` before the heading also has the advantage that when `hyperref` is used, the link actually points before the heading instead of after it.
BTW: The KOMA-Script class `scrbook` has an additional command `\addpart`, that is used like `\chapter*` but automatically adds a toc entry:
```
\documentclass[emulatestandardclasses]{scrbook}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\addpart{First part}
\chapter{Chapter 1}
\end{document}
```
I've used option `emulatestandardclasses` to emulate the lookalike of the standard `book` class. Without the option page header and footer and the chapter headings would be different.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680907 | 2 | The question: possibility of using of working `python` scripts embedded in LaTeX.
When I was using `\usepackage{python}`, it did wonders to my dissertation (although I am very new to LaTeX, but some thousands of lines of code have been written in python). Python was drawing plots and putting them on hard drive, then LaTeX was putting them inside the document. After serious problem with the system (linux Mint), I was forced to reinstall, and `python` + `LaTeX` stopped working. I was looking for a solution and `pythontex` was promising. It turned out, eventually, there is some serious conflict between `mwrep` and `pythontex`.
Is it possible to use `pythontex` with `mwrep`? (`mwrep` is a must *[EDIT: On second thought I don't know if it really is required -- I thought that the printing house wants the document of this class -- to tell the truth I do not know the difference. I'll ask about it the editor.]*)
Or is there a better possibility of emmbeding python scripts inside LaTeX (i.e. working scripts)?
P.S.
I was looking for an answer, but I found no definitive solution.
**UPDATE**
Minimal working example.

| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/266782 | mwrep and pythontex -- is it possible to use | true | Looks like some weird interfacing between `newfloat` and `mwrep`. This is my understanding:
* Unlike `article` documentclass, `mwrep` documentclass does not define `\@chapter`.
* This breaks the `\DeclareFloatingEnvironment` command for some reason.
* `pythontex` package defines a `listing` environment `\AtBeginDocument` if it's not defined before:
```
\AtBeginDocument{
\ifcsname listing\endcsname
\ifbool{pytx@listingenv}{}%
{\PackageWarning{\pytx@packagename}%
{A "listing" environment already exists \MessageBreak
\pytx@packagename\space will not create one \MessageBreak
Use \string\setpythontexlistingenv\space to create a custom listing environment}}%
\else
\ifbool{pytx@listingenv}{}{\DeclareFloatingEnvironment[fileext=lopytx]{listing}}
\fi
}
```
You can also reproduce the issue without `newfloat`:
```
\documentclass{mwrep}
\usepackage{newfloat}
\DeclareFloatingEnvironment{diagram}
\begin{document}
Text
\end{document}
```
So, apparently a workaround (at least in the current version) is to force pythontex to declare that floating environment
very early on:
```
\RequirePackage{pythontex}
\setpythontexlistingenv{listing}
\documentclass[11pt]{mwrep}%
\begin{document}
\section{pythontex try}
\begin{pyconsole}
x = 987.27
x = x**2
print(f"{x = }")
print("Hello Seba :)")
\end{pyconsole}
\end{document}
```
Another workaround is to add
```
\csname @chapter\endcsname
```
to the very start of the document.
Looks like it was caused by some other unrelated change: <https://gitlab.com/axelsommerfeldt/newfloat/-/issues/13>

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/680913 | 4 | I have a simple tree. I cannot figure out how to align children vertically.
```
\documentclass{article}

Compiling the code gives a subtree under node c, but I want x and x1 to align vertically.
Do I have to manually place every node? Options like `below of=a` miss align the remaining children. I'm looking for something like `leftalign` whole tree.
| https://tex.stackexchange.com/users/293665 | Latex Tikz align children vertically | true | I am not sure whether this is what you want, but you can shift the nodes of a certain level to the left and right (since the default sibling distance is 15mm, in order to vertically align the nodes, you would need to shift all nodes by the half of this value which is 7.5mm):
```
\documentclass[border=10pt]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[level 2/.style={every node/.style={xshift=-7.5mm}}]
\node {0}
child {node {a}}

child {node {b1}}
child {node {c1}}
child {node {d1}}

```
