- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm happy to announce the Christmas release of FiXme: 3.0 !
New in this release:
- - - FiXme now provides environments for longer notes.
- - - Layouts can be overridden on a per-note basis.
- - - Bug fix in the marginal note layout.
This package provides you with a way of inserting fixme notes in your
documents. Such notes can appear inline, as marginal notes, footnotes, index
entries, in the log file and as warnings on stdout. It is also possible to
summarize them in a list. When you switch from draft to final mode, any
remaining fixme note will be logged, but removed from the document's body.
Additionally, critical notes will abort compilation with an informative
message. FiXme also comes with support for AUC-TeX.

FiXme – Collaborative annotation tool for LaTeX
FiXme is a collaborative annotation tool for LaTeX documents.
Annotating a document here refers to inserting meta-notes, that is,
notes that do not belong to the document itself, but rather
to its development or reviewing process. Such notes may involve
things of different importance levels, ranging from simple
“fix the spelling” flags to critical “this paragraph is a lie”
mentions. Annotations like this should be visible during the development
or reviewing phase, but should normally disappear in the final
version of the document.
FiXme is designed to ease and automate the process of managing
collaborative annotations, by offering a set of predefined note levels
and layouts, the possibility to register multiple authors, to reference
annotations by listing and indexing etc. FiXme is extensible, giving you
the possibility to create new layouts or even complete “themes“, and
also comes with support for AUCTeX.
