Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the

                    texdimens

package.

Version:  0.9 2021-07-21
License:  lppl1.3c

Summary description:  Conversion of TeX dimensions to decimals

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 v0.9 (2021/07/21)

 - breaking changes: all user macros have changed their names
   and now use the \texdimen namespace prefix and not \texdimin
   as formerly.

 - new: \texdimenbothincmsp{<dim. expr.>} expands to an integer N
   such that Nsp is the largest dimension at most equal to the
   input and exactly representable with the in and also with the
   cm units.  And similar macros to produce the same dimension but
   as a decimal to be used with either in, cm or pt.
