Summary description: colored text boxes, LaTeX examples, theorems, documentation
Announcement text:
- box breaking algorithm revised: * breakable boxes now always have \noindent * distance to preceeding text corrected * interaction with floating objects fixed * dimensioning of partial boxes improved * splitting of an empty closing frame can now be avoided (depending on 'pad at break*') * The upper total height limit for breakable boxes is extended from about 16384pt to about 65536pt * experimental code added (breakable=unlimited) for breakable boxes without height limit besides memory * splitting boxes inside multicols environments supported (to a certain degree) * limited orphan control added ('enlargepage flexible') - library 'breakable': * new options: 'break at', 'height fixed for', 'enlargepage flexible', 'pad before break*', 'pad at break*' - Corners can be set individually now to be 'rounded' or 'sharp' for all types of boxes, skins, borders, and shadows: * new options: 'sharpish corners', 'sharp corners', and 'rounded corners' - library 'skins': * new options: '\tcbline*' * bug fix: skin families 'bicolor' and 'beamer' did not respect 'colbacktitle' - pictures 'blueshade.png', 'crinklepaper.png', 'goldshade.png', 'pink_marble.png' moved to package folder

tcolorbox – Coloured boxes, for LaTeX examples and theorems, etc
This package provides an environment for coloured and framed text boxes with a heading line. Optionally, such a box may be split in an upper and a lower part; thus the package may be used for the setting of LaTeX examples where one part of the box displays the source code and the other part shows the output. Another common use case is the setting of theorems. The package supports saving and reuse of source code and text parts.
The package depends on the pgf, verbatim, environ, and etoolbox packages.
