I'm SO close to being done, I've put about....dunno, 12 hours into this? More? And I just need to buy some cardstock and print the cards....and oh yeah, print the card backs...
I have a a document that is making me sheets of cards. A stripped down, almost minimal example looks something like
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} %Needed for input
\usepackage{venturis} %CM does not look right at this size
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} %Needed for output
\usepac...
... which makes you feel like 1996: you can watch metafont creating the bitmaps for each glyph, one at a time. And after half an hour, you can see the first preview of the dvi file ;)
I am looking for a macro similar to the \AtEveryBibitem from biblatex, but I need one that works at the end of every item and and not before every item. Does an \AfterEveryBibitem macro exist. Right now I am patching the finentry bibmacro, but that seems like a hack.
@DanielE.Shub In my opinion you can't handle every case. Every regular biblatex style is ending with \finentry and nearly all is ending with \usebibmacro{finentry}.
@MarcoDaniel wouldn't patching \blx@bibitem to have a hook be more robust? It is just not clear to me where to put the hook. It seems like it could go after \blx@driver, \blx@postpunct, or \blx@endlangbib.
\usepackage[style=trad-plain]{biblatex}
\makeatletter
\def\blx@driver#1{%
\ifcsdef{blx@bbx@#1}
{\csuse{blx@bbx@#1}\newblock\usebibmacro{mynote}}
{\ifcsdef{blx@bbx@*}
{\blx@warning{%
No driver for entry type '#1'.\MessageBreak
Using fallback driver}%
\csuse{blx@bbx@*}}
{\blx@error
{No driver found}
{I can't find a driver for the entry type
'\abx@field@entrytype'\MessageBreak
and there is no fallback driver either}}}}
@PauloCereda I have a perfectly good stylesheet that's been on the web for over a decade then mathjax incorporates it and people start using it and raising issues. It's so much easier without users (although if you can't reach the source code repository it doesn't really matter)
If I don't document something, it's usually either for a good reason,
or a bad reason. In this case it's a good reason. :-)

I really should not ask this as @DavidCarlisle will have a field day with it but, I've got a 32 line file with tikzcode in it. Whenever I load it into vi, vi decides to become extremely slow. I've scoured Google for solutions and fixes for syntax highlighting but nothing has worked other than turning the syntax highlighting off. Does anyone have any tips?
I am using algorithm2e when I reference an algorithm it shows ?? which links to the correct algorithm, but it should show something like 1.1.
Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

@DavidCarlisle You know, at this moment I would actually entertain the idea of trying out emacs (or something similar) in light of my recent problems with vi but I just don't have time right now to learn a new environment. The syn highlighting is definitely nice but not exactly necessary.
(sorry @PauloCereda)
What is odd though is that the slow-down does NOT occur on my co-workers desktop and his syntax hilighting is on. I wonder if I messed up my vimrc file
well apparently i had a 24MB thesaurus.txt file that was being loaded by vi on every instance. I blew that file away and now everything is up to snuff.
Recently in some LaTeX documentation I noticed that there is a special LaTeX command for the symbol meaning "corresponds to", which is similar to an equal sign with a hat on top. \hat{=} or \widehat{=} both do not give satisfying results (my personal view). Unfortunately, I cannot remember which ...

I am defining a macro in LaTeX2e for writing function declarations.
I want that the macro has tree compulsory arguments: the name of the function (v.g f), a depiction of the type of variable it takes (v.g. x), and the space in which the function is defined (v.g. \mathbb R), as well as three opti...

@PauloCereda No point, I'm going to win, get a bounty, three gold badges, and lots of toys for Christmas.
@PauloCereda he didn't get this one though (I love it when a one line answer trumps a multi-line multi-language egreg opus:-) tex.stackexchange.com/questions/149470/…
@DavidCarlisle Oh, there are only some slight differences between the two answers: Woliński's method allows justification and hyphenation, but it's just a small detail. :P
@N3buchadnezzar either a bounty, if the question is basically the same, or a follow-up question, in which you explain why the solutions to the other question doesn't work for you
