@UlrikeFischer I just meant I wrote those two and haven't used them since about then (pslatex.sty was already obsolete by the time I updated it to be a 2e package)
@Skillmon I'm just working out if separate-uncertainty should stay or I should have a single option that covers all outcomes - at the moment I've kept separate-uncertainty but thinking about it I suspect it's better to have a single option for all styles
@JosephWright maybe a single switch with a fourth mode separate is really better/more organised. At the very least it would make browsing the documentation and finding that option much easier.
@DavidCarlisle I feel there are so many new users one the site at the moment. I would be nice if all new users got information as to how one asks an answerable question on the site.
@daleif yes that's a separate issue, that the user didn't post any code related to the qustion, I was more concerned that the code that was posted was aimed at a sun laser-writer.
@daleif that depends how you define "made". They sold laser printers and we had several of them alongside our sun workstations in the late 80s, but if you peeled off the sun logo there was an apple underneath
@AlanMunn Can't remember, but definitely not. Our department switched from sun to Apollo for the costs... I don't remember the printers brand, I think it was hp or honeywell.
@Rmano The research centre I worked at had a couple of Suns but I don't think we even had a laser printer at the time. We had a Tektronix plotter though since there was a lot of research involving CAD.
@AlanMunn oh, yes, what a memory! The university had a shared big plotter --- I remember there was a specific language to feed it! We had to get authorization to print there as PhD students, though ;-)
@JosephWright and all Marcel and Ulrike have to do is implement an inline tex-mathml convertor embed it in pdf tags then implement a pdf reader that can read the document as specified. You clearly drew the short straw:-)
@PauloCereda @PauloCereda you could have been a contenstant in prestigious long running quiz show, check specialist subject of the finalist of this year's series bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-56891136
Steps to reproduce. Minimal LaTeX file test.tex:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\input{test.l2e}
\end{document}
file test.l2e:
\oops
run pdflatex or xelatex on test and hit E at the error prompt.
pdflatex says:
pdflatex:calledit: unexpected if_ptr=5 not in range 1..2,from input_stack...
@JosephWright I have number of test failures, because the order of the color changed in some places for xetex: new: 0 G 0 g old: 0 g 0 G. Do you have any idea where this could come from? (that is with xelatex-dev and the newest expl3 code).
