Subject: re: Lines after figures and space after \input

        I am currently completing my PhD using LaTeX2e (emTeX 386 on a PC) and
        have a couple of queries.  Firstly, I would quite like to have a thin
        rule between my floats and my main text.  Is there a package that will
        do this? I am using the excellent caption package to put the text in
        small and the _Figure 1.1_ in bold.  Some of my captions are, however,
        quite long and it would be nice to seperate them from the main text. 

I don't know of such a package, but there is a simple "hook" for this sort of
stuff in the LaTeX output routine - or at least there was in the LaTeX 2.09.
The following is taken from the 2.09 sources (yes, what I've got handy is
all antique):

%   \topfigrule     : Command to place rule (or whatever) between floats
%                     at top of page and text.  Executed in inner vertical
%                     mode right before the \textfloatsep skip separating
%                     the floats from the text.  Must occupy zero vertical
%                     space.  (See \footnoterule.)
%   \botfigrule     : Same as \topfigrule, but put after the \textfloatsep
%                     skip separating text from the floats at bottom of page.

Unless changed, both of these are \let to \relax.

For reference, here's \footnoterule from ARTICLE.DOC (slightly editted):

\def\footnoterule{\kern-3pt
  \hrule width .4\columnwidth
  \kern 2.6pt}                 % The \hrule has default height of .4pt .

        Secondly, I have put my footnotes in seperate files which are then
        incorporated into the main text using \input.  (This is to make
        counting words *not* including the footnotes easier).  For some reason
        this creates a larger than normal space after the footnotemark in the
        main text which looks mighty ugly.  I have made sure that there is no
        extra space or lines after the end of the footnote in the \input file.

It's hard to picture exactly what you are doing and where you might already
have explicit spaces.  One quick possibility to try:  The last line of your
\input file presumably ends with a newline, which as usual TeX treats as a
space.  Try adding "%" as the last character.  If this does it, but it's a
pain to edit all the separate footnote files, try putting \unskip just after
each \input - i.e., \input{somefoot.note}\unskip.
                                                        -- Jerry

No package necessary!  Just declare

\newcommand\topfigrule{\hrule}
\newcommand\botfigrule{\hrule}
\newcommand\dblfigrule{\hrule}

It is illogical to use \newcommand, but looking at the definitions
in LaTex, I forsee the necessity.

Ah! But the end of the last line in the input file counts as a space,
and so does any space you leave after \input{file}!  Try ending the
last line in the file with %, and/or omitting all space after
\input{file}.

Subject: Q: how do you use letters to label equations (instead of letters)

This question has probably been asked and answered before
but I couldn't find the answer in the archives.

What I'm looking for is a way of "lettering" equations instead
of numbering them, for example, something like:

\begin{lettereqnarray}
a & = & b(c+d)\\
  & = & bc+bd
\end{lettereqnarray}

would look like this:

        a = b(c+d)              (A)
          = bc+bd               (B)

is this doable, in either or both LaTeX/TeX

The DeskJet has a switch for selecting the page length.  Set that

Subject: DXY -> PS

Dear All

Firstly, can I say a blanket thank you to all who replied to my last
queries.  The answers were:

LINES
\renewcommand{\topfigrule}{\hrule}
\renewcommand{\botfigrule}{\hrule}
\topfigrule
\botfigrule

FUNNY SPACES
In the \input file, end the file with a comment (%); this prevents extra
large space in the text.

DXY -> PS
And now...  a new question.
I have three graphics in Roland DXY plotter language which I would like
to convert to PS/EPS.  (Note: they are in DXY, not RD-GL which is
basically HPGL).  In the CTAN archive there is the code for a program to
do just such a conversion but we cannot get it to compile on our LINUX
machine.  

Does anyone:
   a) have a working copy of this program who would be willing to
      convert 3 DXY files to PS for me. 
OR
   b) have an e-mail address for Don MacCormick who wrote the program. 
      In 1987 his address was damc@nifty  :-)

Many thanks,

Subject: Forbidding line breaks at hyphens

I would like to forbid line breaks from occurring at places where I have 
hyphens in a piece of text.

The only statements that I see in the "TeX Book" on this subject are on page 
93, where it basically says "TeX doesn't do this very often, and if it does, 
just put the hyphenated word into an hbox".

Is there some way I can produce the same effect by a single global command, 
which would be far more convenient in my particular situation? 

(For the record, I had assumed that the "-" character must have a strange
catcode, in order for it to be treated differently from other characters,
but that doesn't seem to be the case, so I'm at a loss to know how TeX
understands that "-" means something special.)

Not without modifying plain.bst.  This is something I've thought about
on and off for some time, but there are several booby traps in the way
of a "solution off the top of the head".

There are programs that generate bounding boxes, but the names escape

Subject: Babel release 3.5 available now

        Hi,

        I am releived to finally be able to tell you that I have
        finalized Babel release 3.5.

        What's new in release 3.5?
        - Because of some of the major changes I made I have decided
          to give the (formerly called) language-specific files a new
          name: "language definition file". They also no longer have
          the extension.sty but ".ldf". The consequence is that
          \usepackage{english} no longer works, only the documented
          syntax \usepackage[english]{babel} works.
        - Completely changed the way babel deals with active
          characters. They are now activated once and stay active for
          the rest of the document, only their expansion
          changes. There is still one problem with the approach:
          active characters that take an argument (such as " in a lot
          of languages) give errors what TeX finds the sequence "}.
        - Active characters (or two letter combinations starting with
          an active character) are now called shorthands. One can have
          three levels of shorthands: user defined, language defined
          and system defined. Active characters may be defined to take
          an argument.
        - Introduced an environment `otherlanguage' (with the name of
          the language as argument) which acts like the
          \selectlanguage declaration. Also introduced the command
          \foreignlanguage, which takes two arguments. The arguments
          are the name of the language and the (short) text from that
          language. This command only switches hyphenation and
          specials. 
        - Extended the syntax of language.dat for compatibility with
          Bernard Gaule's french package.
        - Each language definition file now tries to load a
          configuration file (which has the same name, but extension
          .cfg). 
        - Active characters are now written to auxiliary files
          *verbatim*
        - A language change now also writes information in the .aux
          file as the change might also affect typesetting the table
          of contents. The consequence is that an .aux file generated
          by a LaTeX format with babel preloaded gives errors when
          read with a LaTeX format without babel, but I think this
          problaly doesn't occur.
        - Babel can now be used together with both the inputenc and
          fontenc packages. So far Babel only knows about T1 and OT1
          encodings, if it needs to know other encodings I would like
          to hear it.
        - A lot of code has been moved from language definition files
          (note the new name for them I used to call them
          language-specific files). This is caused by the rewrite of
          the active character handling and by the implementation of
          T1 support,
        - A number of languages have been added to the distribution
          (breton, estonian, irish, lower sorbian, scottish and
          upper sorbian)
        - More laguage definition files make characters active;
          currently we have the following active characters:
          ~ system, catalan, galician, spanish
          : breton, francais, turkish
          ; breton, francais
          ! breton, francais, turkish
          ? breton, francais
          " catalan, danish, dutch, finnish, galician, german, polish,
            portuguese, slovene, spanish, upper sorbian
          ` catalan (when option activegrave is used)
          ' catalan, galician, spanish (when option activeacute is used)
          ^ esperanto
          = turkish
        - This releaseshould be compatible with plain TeX.I don not
          know if it is Compatible with LaTeX 2.09 but I do not regard
          that as important as LaTeX 2.09 is obsolete by now. But
          making babel 3.5 run with plain TeX could also make it run
          with LaTeX2.09 (not tested, no guarantees). 

        The last remark: where can you get babel 3.5?
        It is available from CTAN in the directory
        /tex-archive/macros/latex/packags/babe.

        Happy LaTeXing!
