@AdamLiter You have to see the style file of leipzig find out the glossaries commands and use that option which defines those commands, I hope. I don't have time now but :(
@HarishKumar No worries. Thanks for the tip! I don't have much time myself at the moment, so maybe I'll just add a bounty to that old question. :)
Hmm, actually, nevermind. The answer does seem to solve the issue when I actually create a copy of and then change the .sty file. I must have been doing something wrong with \patchcmd.
@DavidCarlisle well, @egreg could be able to answer that one, too :-) I'd be actually quite happy if @Joseph zapped it as a feature request and fulfilled this request. I even know how to do it in the LaTeX3 way.
@David @Gonzalo it's funny to see how many people are actually unhappy about the golden badge zapper, because they feel that a closure is not a 1-0 thing.
@JosephWright I did not realize that all key setting was local, but it seems that for some reason I decided to use gset rather than set. I'll explain what I try to do.
@JosephWright @GonzaloMedina well in a way it's easier for mods as you know you have that power, but for us, usually we don't, so can take part in community voting, but if you don't double check the tags in the question and remember which tags for which you have a badge, then you may be surprised by the result.
@DavidCarlisle There was a discusion somewhere mentioning that people wanna know they've got the golden hammer on the question. IIRC, it was declined with "you are supposed to vote in the same way and be sure what you're doing".
@PauloCereda oh no my usual translation service failed, I thought in English the comment was "I have downloaded the test release and am starting to perform some regression tests"
@JosephWright I'll check that later. now it's time for some real work (and it works in current version, with the bad hack in the core, so people can test everything there)
@egreg Can I use for T2A cyrillic some input enconding (?) that doesn't use cyrillic glyph? I mean, to write in english alphabet but to provide cyrillic with T2A? I hopes you understand me
@DavidCarlisle I see that table, but I am stupid guy :) I mean, when I want to wrote something that looks like: "Зовем се Петар Радовић и положио сам све испите." my code is:
I suppose that I should change this utf8x with something? I suppose that you understand me what I want, but, because my poor english, I would like that my document look like
@JosephWright if we end up avoiding the clash by updating etex.sty I wouldn't want to complicate the code too much to avoid problems with an old etex.sty, what could you do in that case? (we could for example put etex.sty into base to make sure it got updated)
@Cortizol so you want to write using the latin alphabet and transliterate to cyrillic? Rather than write directly in cyrillic? The original ams cyrillic fonts were designed for that but T2A is more designed for typing cyrillic directly as it doesn't have ligatures to map multiple latin letters to a single cyrillic one.
@DavidCarlisle Yes, I would like to do that if that is possible. I would like to do in that way because I write some math text and I need to use every time alt + shift (twice) to switch keyboard from cirillic to english and that is really painfull.
@DavidCarlisle Because when I use math mode I need english so I need to switch keyboard.
@Cortizol It's not really possible as unlike the characters above 127 which you can make active and have any definition you like, if you make the latin characters active then they are no longer "letters" so that you can not type commands such as \begin The OT2 font encoding for the wnr10 font did work in this way by placing the cyrillic characters in the ascii positions and having ligatures so that zh ligatured to ж (if I got that right, sorry I can not read cyrillic:-)
@DavidCarlisle Yes, you got it right! :-) I know for OT2, but cyrillic from T2A looks more more prettier for my eyes. Well, what to do, that is life... :(
@DavidCarlisle No problem. You helped me a lot. I will see, probably with @egreg, I suppose he knows, is there some big different between this cyrillic physics.ox.ac.uk/Users/bauke/LaTeX/Tips_und_Tricks/cyrillic/… (I found today on professor cite) and cyrillic from T2A.
@DavidCarlisle I mean, there is some difference, you can call me crazy, but when I zoom 500% cyrillic from that PDF (physics.ox.ac....) I can see that letters aren't smooth (mathematical term) enough, like in T2A. I know that human eye can't see when read printed file, but there is problem in my head with that... :)
@Cortizol You presumably have pk (bitmap) fonts for the OT2 fonts and type1 (scalable) fonts for T2. Originally all TeX fonts were bitmap. I do not know if the wnr cyrillic was ever converted to type1 format.
@Cortizol seems like they should be available in scalable form my texlive 2014 has :
@JosephWright yes but the plan was so long as it switched before extended registers were used it shouldn't matter as it's using the same count10-count19 to record where things are. But it seems that isn't quite right
@JosephWright it should be possible to arrange that if etex.sty is loaded into a new format the allocation system is completely replaced and any existing allocation counts are if necessary copied from count10-19 to count256-266 so it pick up where th ekernel left off
@JosephWright yes but I wanted to get agreement on what we want any changes to be before I contacted him. I wrote 90% of the thing anyway so I don't think he'll disagree especially if we point out the unchanged file makes documents hang

Does somebody know what type the \middle<delim> math atom is in e-TeX? In Knuth TeX \left<delim> makes <delim> a \mathopen atom. What does \middle do to <delim>?
I am exploring the use of class options, I was under the impression that optional arguments presented at the point of class declaration, were subsequently presented to all packages used thereafter.
Can someone explain to me why the following doesn't produce the output I would expect, which is to...
TEX's \left delimiter ...\right delimiter produces two delimiters with a common size adjusted to the height and depth of the enclosed material. In -TEX this can be generalized by occurrences of \middle delimiter dividing the enclosed material into segments resulting in a sequence of delimiters with a common size adjusted to the maximal height and depth of all enclosed segments. The spacing between a segment and the delimiter to its left or right is as for TEX's left or right delimiter respectively.
@HenriMenke texdoc etex :-) in short, it's usually the wrong space, you'd normally want it to be more like \mathbin or \mathrel but it isn't
@HenriMenke basically \left(.... \middle| .... \right) is like \left(.... \right|\left| .... \right) except the two middle | are one and the vertical size in both halves is the same. But normally you want the expression close to the leftright brackets but with space added for middle, but that isn't what etex does.
@JosephWright so current plan (ignoring the above for a bit) is simply to suggest changing etex.sty to look like
%% We don't change the LaTeX definitions of \newcount, etc., but the
%% \alloc@ macro doing the actual work is redefined.
%% To ensure working in LateX 2015 release do define \newcount etc
%% with their pre 2015 LaTeX definitions
\def\newcount{\alloc@0\count\countdef\insc@unt}
\def\newdimen{\alloc@1\dimen\dimendef\insc@unt}
\def\newskip{\alloc@2\skip\skipdef\insc@unt}
\def\newmuskip{\alloc@3\muskip\muskipdef\@cclvi}
\def\newbox{\alloc@4\box\chardef\insc@unt}
\def\newhelp#1#2{\newtoks#1#1\expandafter{\csname#2\endcsname}}
@JosephWright then as far as I can see so long as you load etex before extended registers have been allocated it should all work, in 2014 you can't have allocated extended registers before loading etex anyway so I think that is good enough
@PauloCereda It seems they don't just want a load of swearing :-)

@Danu I'm sure you can break it (not used it myself) but it has survived for decades and still seems to be the first mentioned tool so it can't be all bad.
@JosephWright was quite tricky to workaround actually the numbering command isn't expandable and has a literal [f] argument that mustn't be uppercased, and the whole thing in a chapter format with MakeUppercase....
@Danu Yeah, except there is a tendency for people to answer on the 'the user needs help' grounds. I understand that but I also see that these are really low-value questions.
Easily. You open the TikZ manual, learn the basics, try to make the diagram yourself, and if you have a specific problem, you edit your question to reflect this one particular specific problem. — yo'52 secs ago
@PaulGessler that's seriously and officially mean :D
@yo' I'm all for being nice but I'm not convinced that people asking these questions are really getting the benefit: they come, they (do) get an answer, they leave
however, I seem to use \tl_map_inline:nn { {author}{supervisor}{supervisor-address}{day}{month}{year}{facultynum}{specification-file} } { ... } to do a foreach
Please how i can write with latex to obtain something like this:
Thank you
