Patrick Happel submitted an update to the
lipsum
package.
Version number: 2.2
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Easy access to the Lorem Ipsum dummy text
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Issues addressed:
- https://github.com/patta42/lipsum/issues/13
- https://github.com/patta42/lipsum/issues/12
Summary:
- Uses \par instead of \tex_par:D to avoid incompatibilities with
LaTeX2e's list-environment
- Defines an interface to implement other texts than "Lorem ipsum..."
without re-coding the logic used by lipsum
- Ships with a second text, "De finibus", a speech by Cicero, which
inspired the Lorem ipsum dummy text. This text is true latin
and is properly hyphenated by, for example, babel.sty with language latin.
Thanks to github-user svenper for the text of the Cicero-speech.
