@PauloCereda fun... a pity the Italian part is completely off (surely pronunciation and some words are wrong, too...)

8:22 AM
@DavidCarlisle ooh
@DavidCarlisle I wanna be English
@Rmano Definitely... there's one with a Brazilian Portuguese, it's even worse
 
@PauloCereda too late, you are being sent home
 
@DavidCarlisle oh no
@DavidCarlisle quack
 
@PauloCereda Frühstück
 
@DavidCarlisle oh no
 
@PauloCereda Oh nein!
 
8:27 AM
@CarLaTeX oh nein
@CarLaTeX <3
 
@PauloCereda <3
 
@PauloCereda should be "Hallo, mein Name ist Paulo und ich bin ein Erpel" (I think I corrected you a bunch of times already :P)
@PauloCereda and counter-ooh!
 
@Skillmon oh I keep forgetting this, sorry. :( /duck hug
 
@PauloCereda /rabbit cuddle
 
@Skillmon awww <3
 
8:39 AM
@PauloCereda yay, carrots! Here, have one as well, mate: <3
@JosephWright exactly, and that just so that people doing things fundamentally wrong get correct results sometimes, hence no sympathy!
 
@barbarabeeton ^^ the thread is great :)
 
@PauloCereda the lorem ipsum one got me :)
 
@Skillmon :)

@PauloCereda :)
 
9:15 AM
@DavidCarlisle ?
@JosephWright Herbert decided to repair seminar a bit, he just uploaded to ctan.
 
@UlrikeFischer Cool
 
@JosephWright he also claims that he included the hyperref patches, so I can remove them
 
@UlrikeFischer Cool :)
 
9:33 AM
@UlrikeFischer it's a cut down version of a question on the main site, it may be odd to use an opentype there but a fatal internal error?
This is XeTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-0.999993 (TeX Live 2021) (preloaded format=xetex)
 restricted \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
(./aa539a.tex
! Internal error: bad native font flag in `map_char_to_glyph'
 
@DavidCarlisle oh, I only tried with luatex ;-)
 
10:06 AM
@MarcelKrüger seems that fatal format error is also a possibility:-)
 
10:19 AM
Hello there :) Is it possible to adjust in the packageoption the Fontsize of all captions?
 
@Riboswitch texdoc caption (assuming you are using caption package, you didn't say, page 10 font=large option
 
@JosephWright well, $700 for Scientific Word seems a bit a price out of the market now...
 
@Rmano Oh, certainly - it's priced in the same bracket as other mainly-academic-use packages for research (I'm immediately put in mind of OriginPro)
 
10:38 AM
@JosephWright Oh, that one... ;-)
 
@Rmano Probably has a much bigger market, of course, but has I suspect a lot more people working on it ;)
@Rmano I find it too 'heavy' in the GUI - lots and lots of icons - but then I do only some pretty basic analysis so can do it with free knock-offs (SciDAVis, mainly)
 
@JosephWright Yes, I really never used it fully (I used to work in a place with a license, but that was 20+ years ago). Now most people that send me ORG file are just plotting tabled values...
 
@Rmano I never really used it but it was quite nice, their interactive style desiger influenced some of the changes we made to the standard classes in 2e. the latex team had a "trial" version around that time but I have not had a copy since that time so no idea how it developed in later releases.
 
And how do I get the List of tabes out of my table of contents list? I used
\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\thispagestyle{empty}}
After the toc command to prevent the listof figures to appear, but that does not work for the list of tables
 
@Riboswitch you might be better asking on the question and answer site, setting thispagestyle affects the page number in the page foot (or head) it does not affect what entries are in the table of contents so the code you post does not have the effect that you say.
 
10:51 AM
AH, fixed it, there is an option in the tocbibind-package to not display that!
 
@Riboswitch if you had posted an example as a question, people would have known you were using tocbibind
 
@Rmano I use it for some wok on muon spectroscopy (we do it at ISIS-RAL, and they have a site license), but 'at home' we don't have a legit copy, so I don't use it
@DavidCarlisle Let's see if the open source plan comes off ...
 
@DavidCarlisle You are right, I am sorry :O
 
11:06 AM
@samcarter_looks_forward_TUG'21 aaaaaaw... We had to do that quite a bit back in the day. Occasionally these abandoned little cuties would turn into house pets XD
 
 
4 hours later…
3:03 PM
@PauloCereda "Then he lifted up his hands and cried in a loud voice ringing above the din: The Ducks are coming! And many voices answered crying: The Ducks are coming! The Ducks are coming!"
3
 
@UlrikeFischer oh my YES
@UlrikeFischer \AddToHook{para/end}{ And then the ducks arrived.}
2
 
@PauloCereda \AddToHook{para/end}{ And then dinner was served}
 
@PauloCereda in my first tests of the hooks I added tikzducks and bear at the begin ;-)
 
@DavidCarlisle oh no
@UlrikeFischer ooh
 
@UlrikeFischer /quacks regally

3:09 PM
@JosephWright Und dann kamen die Enten. :)
 
3:59 PM
@JosephWright Version 5.5 is still widely used, this version was great, I used it in my university days (much nicer and how to use microimp at that time), it will be great to see it converted into an open source project (only the university can pay the cost of that license).
 
4:36 PM
@PauloCereda -- Hmmm. Could be the final exam of a World Literature course.
 
@barbarabeeton ooh
Meanwhile, a summary of the ongoing discussion about PDF 2.0 in the TL mailing list...

@PauloCereda where is a discussion about pdf 2.0?
 
@UlrikeFischer actually the luatex thingy
@DavidCarlisle ooh
 
@PauloCereda oh my bug report, I hadn't seen yet that the discussion got heated.
 
4:51 PM
@UlrikeFischer oh it was you, sorry. :)
@UlrikeFischer Even big names like some bloke named David Carlisle appeared in the thread. :)
@DavidCarlisle Schematron is a great name
Sounds like one of those new Transformer robots :)
 
@PauloCereda I wrote the second ever schematron implementation and can only agree with Rick (who write the spec and the first implementation) that ISO just deciding to stop making it free after an minorish update is ... er unhelpful.
@PauloCereda in that case it will probably end up being like ISO HTML expensive and unused, and people will just go back to the last freely available spec and to a cleanroom re-drafting of the additions. Unfortunately it's harder to do that with PDF.
 
@DavidCarlisle Agreed. :) There's also an ongoing discussion about GitHub's new copilot AI code assistant. The generated code gets code taken from a zillion repositories and it does not take licensing into consideration. You might get generated code for a project of yours that potentially violates certain underlying licenses (e.g using GPL'ed code in closed source), as it constitutes... derivative work, I guess...
@DavidCarlisle see Skype :)
