New on CTAN: timechart

Alan J. Cain submitted the timechart package. Version: 0.51 2025-02-15 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: A package for drawing chronological charts Announcement text:

---

This package provides for the easy creation of chronological charts which show visually the relative historical positions of people and events. Each event or period can be specified by a single line of LaTeX code comprising (possibly uncertain) start and finish dates and a label, and the package takes care of indicating the uncertainties and whether intervals extend beyond the specified bounds of the chart.
