gckanbun
package.

Summary description: Kanbun typesetting for (u)pLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
Announcement text:
Version 2.6.0 makes command chaining whitespace-insensitive: a space, line break, or comment between cooperating commands (for example a ruby or group ruby followed by okurigana or a return mark) no longer breaks the lookahead or inserts spurious glue, so spaced and adjacent input now produce identical layout. Invalid "intrusion" option values are now rejected with a package error instead of being silently ignored. This release adds a whitespace regression matrix and a LuaLaTeX-only "make check" release gate, and drops an unused documentation dependency. LuaLaTeX remains the recommended engine. Basic (u)pLaTeX compatibility is retained, with the limitations documented in the package manual.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/language/japanese/gckanbun More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/gckanbun
