Search returns 12 posts with arxiv.org/hypertex - they are quite likely dead links. Should all of them be edited and replaced by https://arxiv.org/help/hypertex/bibstyles/? Or is it better just to leave a comment - and thus avoid bumping?
Thanks for the response. I made a few suggested edits. (And I'll have a look at other posts later - when I have a bit more time. After all, there is a limit on number of suggested edits, too.)
Actually, I think that it's a good thing. It prevents a low rep user from bumping many posts at once. More importantly, more experienced users of this site will see those edit and check whether they are ok and whether there are some other things which should have been edited. (Or, in this case, whether some other link would have been more suitable.)
In any case, since this was brought up, I wasn't sure what it the best choice for links directly to a bst-file such as http://arxiv.org/hypertex/bibstyles/hsiam.bsthere or http://arxiv.org/hypertex/bibstyles/h-physrev.bsthere.
Hi folks. I have a two columns of a table which use abbreviations. I have a separate table for the abbreviations. I think it might be better to just have a footnote to the table with a list of the abbreviations. It would use less space, for one thing. And the abbreviations are mostly relatively obvious and not terribly interesting to readers.
I'm just wondering what a good way to do this would be. Is that such a thing as actual footnotes to tables, or would I just need to add an extra line at the bottom? Though table lines don't wrap, so that could be an issue.
It looks like for this to work, the table cannot float. Though I don't think my tables float, anyway. I'll check. Also, there is something called tablefootnote.
Oh, longtable has support for footnotes. Maybe I'll try that first.
@FaheemMitha I had a table with footnotes in my thesis, and I must admit it wasn't a good thing to add IMHO. :) However, there are cases in which footnotes might be desired. I will check my code and see what I used, just a minute.
@FaheemMitha I used a package named threeparttable.
Actually, it looks like longtable literally adds a footnote, i.e. something right at the bottom of the page. I was really thinking of something just below the table. Sort of integrated with it.
@user202729 I'm a university lecturer, for example
@user202729 The LaTeX team do have some funds at present for the tagging project, but this is a recent thing - it's the first time 'we' have had non-trivial amounts of cash
I know it's probably too late for this, but it would've been nice if \begin was defined such that the before/.../env-hook could be used in an expansion context...
@PhelypeOleinik Using environments which require calling \noalign inside of \halign.
@user202729 please reread that, only one hook should be placed where it can be reached by full expansion. \begin by itself can't be implemented fully expandable (well, it can, but only in LuaTeX)
@Skillmon It's possible, I guess, but then it would expand in a context where \protect is \@unexpandable@protect and you'd have the hook used twice for example in figure captions
how do I define a dynamic hook name? I could use \NewHook{env/#1/evenbeforebefore}\AddToHook{env/#1/evenbeforebefore} but that doesn't seem right, does it?
@Skillmon By defining that tl, the conditional \__hook_if_generic:nTF will return true when a hook is named env/<anything>/evenbeforebefore, then the magic happens
(with magic, read: \NewHook happens automatically when \AddToHook is used, giving the user the magic feeling that the hook always existed, when actually not)
