 Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
 --
 Many free fonts are extensions of a basic font family with 
 new glyphs or shapes.  Sometimes they are given a new name 
 due to license reasons or the creators preference. 
 
 The `substitutefont` package facilitates the task to set up 
 a font family as substitute for another one by providing
 a \substitutefont command.

thanks for the upload; i've installed the new package, and made an entry
for it in the catalogue repository.

 Users may view the package catalogue entry at
   http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/substitutefont.html
 or they may browse the package directory at

The catalogue entry will have appeared on the web by tomorrow morning.

CTAN Update: texdef

2012-04-30 Thread CTAN Announcements
On Sun, 29 Apr 2012 Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the

  texdef

package.


License type: gpl

Announcement text: 
--
This update adds the experimental --source option which will try to display the 
original source code
used for the macro definition. For this the (first) package/file which defines 
this macro is searched
and scanned for the definition. This option will work for normal definitions 
but break for special
ones like for verbatim macros etc.

This update fixes two issues which made this script run in an endless loop 
under MS Windows.
It has been now successfully tested under MS Windows.
