Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the

                texdimens

package.

Version number: 0.9delta 2021-07-15
License type: lppl1.3c

Summary description: Conversion of TeX dimensions to decimals

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

This gamma release provides

- \texdiminbpdown{<dim. expr.>}: produces a decimal D such that the
  TeX dimension Dbp either matches exactly the input, if this is
  possible, else is the closest match from below. For the
  bp unit this implies Dbp differs by at most 1sp from input.

- Eight similar macros \texdimin<uu>down where <uu> is one of nd,
  dd, mm, pc, nc, cc, cm, or in.

- \texdiminbpup{<dim. expr.>}: produces a decimal D such that the
  TeX dimension Dbp either matches exactly the input, if this is
  possible, else is the closest match from above. For the
  bp unit this implies Dbp differs by at most 1sp from input.

- Eight similar macros \texdimin<uu>up where <uu> is one of nd,
  dd, mm, pc, nc, cc, cm, or in.

See README.md for some relevant details.
