Summary description: Release 1.4
License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
This is the major release of the bundle having many improvements. It requires the `ncctools' bundle of release 3.4. Seven new packages are introduced. Other packages and the `ncc' class are revised. The new `nccdefaults' package sets defaults for some packages from the `ncctools' bundle in correspondence with Russian polygraph. It does this without loading of packages to be modified via the \AddToPackage hook. The new `ncctheorems' package specifies 8 theorem-like environments in 3 variants that were early specified in the `ncclatex' package. The same \AddToPackage technique is used here. So, all these environments will be declared after the `nccthm' package is loaded. The new `nccbiblist' package introduces the biblist environment and redefines the thebibliography environment. The new `ncctitlepage' package redefines the titlepage environment in NCC-style and introduces the titlepage* environment. It also applies auto-restoration of the text area if it was changed inside these environments with the \ExpandTextArea command of the `textarea' package from the `ncctools' bundle. The new `ncctitle' package is renamed from the `ncctitle.clo' file. It is made independent on the `ncc' class and can be used together with other classes. This package introduces commands for preparing a book title, abstract, and last page in rules of Russian polygraphy. The new `nccheadings' package contains definition of `headings' and `myheadings' page styles in NCC-style. The new `nccsections' package applies a customization to sectioning technique of the `nccsect' package from the `ncctools' bundle. Six customization options are allowed now with this package: newsecstyle (separate styles for a number and a text in section declaration commands), newtocstyle (separate styles for a number and a text in TOC declaration commands), chapterinline (chapter tag in line with text), chaptersection (the same as previous but no Chapter/Appendix prefix), partinline (part tag in line with text), partsection (the same as previous but no Part prefix). The `ncchdr' and `nccindex' packages are now independent on the `ncc' class. They can be used together with other classes. In the `ncclatex' package, the `minimize' option is introduced. With this option only required packages are loaded when the `ncclatex' package is used.
