@DavidCarlisle The anonymous user didn't like loading fix-cm and was protesting against LaTeX being tied to such an old model where fonts are not freely scalable! Freedom!
@egreg well no chance of that, the only chance is if they don't try to make any runs at all or do anything clever and just survive for a day then it will be a draw. But the same was true at this stage in the last test, and we were all out within an hour of start of play:-)
@egreg well the batsmen do the running, but their batting wasn't good (it turned out that almost all of them were out to balls that if they had just stood still and not done anything, would have missed the wicket, but because they tried to hit it, the ball flew off and they got caught out:-)
@DavidCarlisle @Stephan This. I clicked the other thing. On some sites, the hats seem to be enabled by default, and I managed to disable them under the snowflake icon, so I think it's safe to click it.
Huh, some people are really tough (after I suggested mathtools' \DeclarePairedDelimiter):
Thanks, I will check it out. But I'm still interested in how to implement it by myself since I try to avoid extra packages. I believe that the solution isn't much more complex that the code snippet given in my question. — Gregory3 mins ago
@tohecz thanks (or adding \makeatlletter:-) in that case I thought about that at the time but thought people shouldn't be setting up chapter title formatting in the preamble....
Can I adjust size of only first column in table? Because first column is just numbering, 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. It's \begin{table} \footnotesize \centering \begin{tabular}{*{11}{c}} \toprule etc.
@Cortizol Are you aware of the p-column type? But to give an answer without guessing, we need more information, possibly in form of a minimal working example.
@ppr I was in France at the beginning of this summer, but I was with a bunch of English-speaking friends so I wasn't speaking much French. When I did try to talk French, I was horrified at how much I'd forgotten.
I think I'll probably go again next summer, but alone, which will force me to speak some French. Perhaps it'll come back to me.
My dad's weird. He very rarely has occasion to talk French, and might not talk the language from one end of the year to the next, but when he does need it, he's still perfectly fluent. Somehow he just doesn't forget it.
@TorbjørnT. Ah. Notification. I was searching MSO for comment mentions and couldn't dig up anything useful.
In TeXstudio editor one can easily choose which labels to reference as soon as you type the cross-referencing-macro you intended to use, for instance, \cref{} of the cleveref package (see image below).
One problem, though, when you use ctable package to create a table, a user-friendly packag...
@doctorate Yeah, the \iffalse means that the \label wont be read by LaTeX when you compile, but TeXStudio will still find the label so it's available for auto-completion.
Hello from the bus returning from São Paulo... Paulo via his smartphone which doesn't seem to be smart at all.
Thankfully I don't have emacs here. :)
So I was coding while waiting for my bus... a girl sat near me, looked at my screen and said, "ooh that's vim!"... needless to say, I was shocked... then she took a closer look and exclaimed, "that is LaTeX, isn't it? I oughtta learn it someday..." What are the odds?! I almost said, "Marry me. Now." :P
After re-watching Return of the Jedi recently, I started to wonder about Jabba and his criminal empire.
All the sources I've read agree that Jabba is immensely powerful, and his influence was such that even the Imperial forces were reluctant to cross him.
But physically, Hutts just don't seem p...
My answers is split in two parts: first I show how DTX files, i.e. docstrip tags, can be used to extract different parts for different language and then I discuss the issue that you have in a real DTX file for a package.
In general you can use the docstrip tags <*lang1> ... </lang1> to mark all ...
@percusse I only happened to notice it yesterday as I was looking around for alternative translation services so I could translate @egreg's insults (he'd slipped into Venetian dialect to make things more challenging than Italian:-)
