@MartinScharrer Oh no!

@NN @tohecz I now added a basic math mode to standalone v1.0b. It's on CTAN, but not official documented yet.

bitbucket.org/martin_scharrer/standalone/changeset/7695d9275f84

Does anyone here uses standalone with MikTeX and test bitbucket.org/martin_scharrer/standalone/issue/2/…. I hardly boot windows.

I'm just interested if this happens always or is installation dependent.

Q: BibTeX, Natbib, and Algorithm2e

I'm trying to prepare a journal submission, and I'm having trouble getting natbib to play nicely. When I include natbib in my document, it gives me the following error: ! Undefined control sequence \chapter ...ace{10\p@ }}\algocf@original@chapter l.1 \begin{thebibliography}{17} This isn't s...

@lockstep and other heavy commenters: Have a look at the following SE user scripts:

@MarcoDaniel But I discovered that the documentation had wrong macro names. Uploaded a fix to CTAN.

@MarcoDaniel Did you like the example annotation?

Marco Daniel

@egreg It shows in a simple way the power of the package. Of course I like your announced text of the package ;-)

@AndrewStacey Where did you post this? An answer somewhere?

I decided not to teach users how to write compiled rules. Arara is dangerous enough with the plain ones. (I'm lazy to write a full dev description)

I hate tables

I can deal with chairs, I can deal with cups. Even widows and wifes, but my lord how tables makes me angry.

@Werner Cool!

@Werner "Unfortunately, this SME-music-content is not available in Germany because GEMA has not granted the respective music publishing rights."

Stupid GEMA.

Werner

@MartinScharrer Wow. I know we have some limited content viewing in Canada for American stuff... sorry about that. :-|

N3buchadnezzar

Sorry for asking here, I feel so stupid... I guess it is really simple. How do I make a horizontal line equal the textwidth in a table ? I tried \line(0,1){270} but it was too short..

Eg the textwidth of my document, not the size of my table.

Martin Scharrer

@Werner Sorry, it's not your fault. I still have access to an Irish proxy anyway ...

@N3buchadnezzar \rule{\textwidth}{<thickness of rule>}

Might require a \noindent.

Werner

@N3buchadnezzar The regular thickness of a rule is 0.4pt.

@MartinScharrer Indeed.

@MartinScharrer I am really close to asking about this question on the site.. Eh, it did work but even with the \noindent it messes up my table
