@egreg Silly me, it’s defined in the engine, not the format (see xetex-reference.pdf page 14). That’s what I couldn’t find it there.

Q: How to write the signature of a method in LaTex?

jperezmartinI'm writing an article in LaTex about programming and I need to write the signature of a C++ method using a specific format, only the statement of the method, not the body. for example: void cvtColor( InputArray src, OutputArray dst, int code, int dstCn=0 ); I would like something like this: ...

Op not logged in after question, he commented to use listings.
 
@JosephWright yes but unless you check out the top level routinely you shouldn't necessarily see that at all.
 
@DavidCarlisle That's rather the point: you only have the full history that way
 
@JosephWright i was expecting most people would just check out trunk, but it's only disk space:-) running a full build check now to see whether I broke anythining
 
Too broad: the question is basically “how can I learn LaTeX?”

Q: Used pseudo-LaTeX on math.se and want to upgrade

TalmidaI'm a math student who is pretty comfortable with computers. I have learned on Math.SE how to use their mathjax system (which I know is not exactly on topic here). I want to start getting a tad more into LaTeX (I'm sure it'll be useful to know in my future). I'm looking for an environment to star...

Q: xticklabel corresponding to xmax not printed

Enrico Maria De AngelisI wander why in the following MWE la last xticklabel has not been printed. I tried to give explicitly xtick={0,.1,.2,.3,.4,.5,.6,.7,.8,.9,1} (since I supposed that it was related to a wrong linear spacing), but it doesn't change anything. In the end, I solved the problem on my own simply writing...

@egreg -- would you please close it then?

Q: Reordering BibTex entries

MyUserIsThisI'm using bibtex and in the reference part it automatically orders entries alphabetically in the author. This is what I want, the problem is that one of the entries has a compound name Joachim von zur Gathen. And its taking the von to order it, when it should be Gathen. How can I change it?

 
@barbarabeeton Possibly too broad or even off-topic, because it is about changing hardwired behavior in the program

@egreg -- here's another one that wants to use footnotes in equations: Why does \makesavenoteenv not work with align?. you've already got a comment on it. i agree that footnotes in equations are inappropriate and a bad idea (but you undermined your case by providing a method to allow footnotes on the right-hand side of cases). but i am not willing to be dictatorial. would you prefer to close this, or to have an answer that says it's impossible?

@Kurt -- the last answer in the chain is written to be mac-specific, although it's more generally applicable. the comments in the question you pointed to say that. that's the problem with a lot of questions/answers here -- they are written to be system specific, although that's not necessary. keep the pointer to the suggested dup.

Kyle BryentonI'm having some troubles typesetting my equations. I want to be able to uncover them one line at a time, while keeping everything that is on the slide transparent until they are uncovered. Besides the whole "transparent" thing, if I insert "\setbeamercovered{invisible}" into the code it works p...

comments on the beamer + align question indicate that the problem is an out-of-date system, and provide useful additional information (but are in no way duplicates). op didn't acknowledge that the info provided an answer, so resolution is unclear. even so, is it reasonable to close as "off topic" (probably resolved)?

@barbarabeeton I voted for closing as too broad: it basically requires a full reimplementation of the footnote package.
