    Jobst Hoffmann submitted an update to the

    struktex

    package.

    Version: 3.0a
    License: lppl1.3c

    Summary description: Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts

    Even in the age of OOP one must develop algorithms.
    Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams are a well known tool to describe an
    algorithm in a graphical way. This package StrukTeX presents
    some macros for generating those diagrams in a LaTeX document.

    The package provides the most important elements of a
    Nassi-Shneiderman diagram, including processing blocks, loops,
    mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. Diagrams are drawn
    using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference).
    The author is Jobst Hoffmann. See also pict2e.

    If one is working with (X)emacs and AUCTeX the "drawing" process is
    supported by structex.el, a style file which knows the syntax of most
    of the commands from the StrukTeX package.

    Version v3.0a-0-gfdf7422 incorporates a nearly completely rewritten
    documentation and a new file organization without the need of a
    struktex.ins fle. Additionally the Makefile is replaced by lbuild.lua
    and lbuild-config.lua - the latter for configuring the language
    (de or en).
