[CTAN Announcements]

On Thu, 30 Aug 2012 Maïeul ROUQUETTE submitted an update to the

  ledmac and ledpar

packages.


License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------

A minor correction is debug with  lineation command.

A major change is the add of new commands to allow easy customization of critical footnotes.

These commands are :
- \numberonlyfirstinline[series]
- \symlinenum[series]
- \nonumberinfootnote[series]
- \nonumberthisnote
- \beforenumberinfootnote[series]{length}
- \afternumberinfootnote[series]{length}
- \beforesymlinenum[series]{length}
- \aftersymlinenum[series]{length}
- \inplaceofnumber[series]{length}
- \lemmaseparator[series]{text}
- \beforelemamseparator[series]{length}
- \afterlemmaseparator[series]{length}
- \nolemmaseparator[series]
- \afternote[series]{length}
- \parafootsep[series]{text}

These commandes are documented on page 17 and next. I think they makes personal \Xfootmt commands deprecated.

But for people how wanted to conserv their own definition of \Xfootmt, they should replace
\def\Xfootmt#1#2#3{code}

or 
\newcommand{\Xfootmt}[3]{code}

by \newcommandx{\Xfootmt}[4][4]{code}.

Note this version requires package xargs and etoolbox, which are in all recent TeX distribution.
