CTAN update: isodate package

Date: April 25, 2005 11:02:25 PM CEST
On Mon, 25 Apr 2005, Harald Harders submitted an update to the isodate package. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/isodate/ License: LPPL >From the README: Tune the output format of dates. This package provides ten output formats of the commands \today, \printdate, \printdateTeX, and \daterange (partly language dependent): ISO (yyyy-mm-dd), numeric (e.g. dd.\,mm.~yyyy), short (e.g. dd.\,mm.\,yy), TeX (yyyy/mm/dd), original (e.g. dd. mmm yyyy), short original (e.g. dd. mmm yy), as well as numerical formats with Roman numerals for the month. The commands \printdate and \printdateTeX print any date. The date is given as an argument using the actual date format for output: \printdate{yyyy-mm-dd}, \printdate{dd.mm.yyyy}, or \printdate{dd/mm/yyyy}, and \printdateTeX{yyyy/mm/dd}. The command \daterange prints a date range and leaves out unnecessary year or month entries. E.g. 2000-05-03 to 2000-05-08 leads to `2000-05-03 to 08'. ChangeLog: 2005/04/15 v2.28 Harald Harders (h.harders at tu-bs.de) - Add Italian language by Philip Ratcliffe. - Introduce option cleanlook for English date format. 2005/03/11 v2.27 Harald Harders (h.harders at tu-bs.de) - Add option british. Thanks for the update. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
