Alceu Frigeri submitted an update to the
xstacks
package.
Version: 1.1 2026-02-19
License: lppl1.3c agpl3
Summary description: Dedicated global stacks implementations
Announcement text:
The package got split in two others: tokgroupmark and tokglobalstack. So users can load only the needed part. See documentation for details. This package preserves its original functionality and definitions (though, importing the other two packages in the process) for consistence and continuity. Besides that, just documentation.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/xstacks The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/xstacks/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese
CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs
