The command \url is a form of verbatim command that allows linebreaks at certain characters or combinations of characters, accepts reconfiguration, and can usually be used in the argument to another command. (The \urldef command provides robust commands that serve in cases when \url doesn't work in an argument.) The command is intended for email addresses, hypertext links, directories/paths, etc., which normally have no spaces, so by default the package ignores spaces in its argument. However, a package option "allows spaces", which is useful for operating systems where spaces are a common part of file names.

Compile TeX pictures stand-alone or as part of a document
A class and package is provided which allows TeX pictures or other TeX code to be compiled standalone or as part of a main document. Special support for pictures with beamer overlays is also provided. The package is used in the main document and skips extra preambles in sub-files. The class may be used to simplify the preamble in sub-files. By default the preview package is used to display the typeset code without margins. The behaviour in standalone mode may adjusted using a configuration file standalone.cfg to redefine the standalone environment.
TeX fonts from the American Mathematical Society
An extended set of fonts for use in mathematics, including: extra mathematical symbols; blackboard bold letters (uppercase only); fraktur letters; subscript sizes of bold math italic and bold Greek letters; subscript sizes of large symbols such as sum and product; added sizes of the Computer Modern small caps font; cyrillic fonts (from the University of Washington); Euler mathematical fonts. All fonts are provided as Adobe Type 1 files, and all except the Euler fonts are provided as Metafont source. The distribution also includes the canonical Type 1 versions of the Computer Modern family of fonts. Plain TeX and LaTeX macros for using the fonts are provided.
This package increases the width of the typeset area of an a4 page. This sort of operation is capable of producing typographically poor results; the operation itself is better provided by the geometry package. The package uses the a4 package.
A collection of (variously) simple tools provided as part of the LaTeX required tools distribution, comprising the packages: afterpage, array, bm, calc, dcolumn, delarray, enumerate, fileerr, fontsmpl, ftnright, hhline, indentfirst, layout, longtable, multicol, rawfonts, showkeys, somedefs, tabularx, theorem, trace, varioref, verbatim, xr, and xspace.
Allows selected environments to be included/excluded
The package defines an environment that only typesets specified environments within its scope. So, for example, if you want nothing but the figure and table environments in your document, you can enclose the whole document with an xcomment environment that excludes everything but. This is a lot easier than excluding the chunks of text between the environments you want, or creating an entire document containing only those environments. The package was previously part of the seminar bundle for typesetting presentations.
Development pre-release of the LaTeX graphics bundle
This is a pre-release version of the standard LaTeX graphics bundle. It accompanies the pre-testing kernel code (latex-base-dev), and is intended for testing by knowledgeable users.
Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX
The package manages culturally-determined typographical (and other) rules, and hyphenation patterns for a wide range of languages. A document may select a single language to be supported, or it may select several, in which case the document may switch from one language to another in a variety of ways. Babel uses contributed configuration files that provide the detail of what has to be done for each language. Users of XeTeX are advised to use polyglossia rather than Babel.
Create PostScript and PDF graphics in TeX
PGF is a macro package for creating graphics. It is platform- and format-independent and works together with the most important TeX backend drivers, including pdfTeX and dvips. It comes with a user-friendly syntax layer called TikZ. Its usage is similar to pstricks and the standard picture environment. PGF works with plain (pdf-)TeX, (pdf-)LaTeX, and ConTeXt. Unlike pstricks, it can produce either PostScript or PDF output.
Path searching library for TeX-related files
Kpathsea is a library and utility programs which provide path searching facilities for TeX file types, including the self- locating feature required for movable installations, layered on top of a general search mechanism.
Development pre-release of the LaTeX kernel
This package provides a testing release for upcoming LaTeX2e kernel changes. Testing by the LaTeX team itself suggests that the code is stable and usable, but wider use by knowledgeable users is required by adding these changes to the release LaTeX kernel. Typically, the code here will be used by a TeX system to create dedicated formats, for example pdflatex-dev, which can then be used explicitly for testing.
Selectively include/excludes portions of text
Selectively include/exclude pieces of text, allowing the user to define new, separately controlled, comment versions. All text between \comment ... \endcomment or \begin{comment} ... \end{comment} is discarded. The opening and closing commands should appear on a line of their own. No starting spaces, nothing after it. This environment should work with arbitrary amounts of comment, and the comment can be arbitrary text. Other 'comment' environments are defined and selected/deselected with \includecomment{versiona} and \excludecoment{versionb} These environments are used as \versiona ... \endversiona or \begin{versiona} ... \end{versiona} with the opening and closing commands again on a line of their own.
The package provides the principal packages in the AMS-LaTeX distribution. It adapts for use in LaTeX most of the mathematical features found in AMS-TeX; it is highly recommendsd as an adjunct to serious mathematical typesetting in LaTeX. When amsmath is loaded, AMS-LaTeX packages amsbsy (for bold symbols), amsopn (for operator names) and amstext (for text embdedded in mathematics) are also loaded. Amsmath is part of the LaTeX required distribution; however, several contributed packages add still further to its appeal; examples are empheq, which provides functions for decorating and highlighting mathematics, and ntheorem, for specifying theorem (and similar) definitions.
Notes in the margin, even where \marginpar fails
This package provides the command \marginnote that may be used instead of \marginpar at almost every place where \marginpar cannot be used, e.g., inside floats, footnotes, or in frames made with the framed package.
The package was designed to accommodate all needs for inclusion of graphics in LaTeX documents, replacing many earlier packages used in LaTeX 2.09. The package aims to give a consistent interface to including the file types that are understood in your output, by use of 'printer drivers' (now known, simply, as 'drivers'). The distribtion of the package contains several drivers, but others (for example, pdfTeX) are distributed separately. The package also offers several means of manipulating graphics in the course of inserting them into a document (for example, rotation and scaling). For extended documentation see epslatex. The package is part of the graphics bundle, which is one of the collections in the LaTeX 'required' set of packages.
The TeX Live software distribution offers a complete TeX system for a variety of Unix, Macintosh, Windows and other platforms. It encompasses programs for editing, typesetting, previewing and printing of TeX documents in many different languages, and a large collection of TeX macros and font libraries. The distribution includes extensive general documentation about TeX, as well as the documentation for the included software packages.
The package offers enhancements for theorem-like environments: easier control of layout; proper placement of endmarks even when the environment ends with \end{enumerate} or \end{displaymath} (including support for amsmath displayed- equation environments); and support for making a list of theorems, analagous to \listoffigures.
A LaTeX class for producing presentations and slides
The beamer LaTeX class can be used for producing slides. Its functionality is similar to Prosper but does not need any external programs and can directly produce a presentation using pdflatex. Beamer uses pgf for pdf/ps independent graphics. Frames are created using \frame{...}, and a frame can build multiple slides through a simple notation for specifying material for each slide within a frame. Beamer supports bibliographies, appendicies and transitions. Short versions of title, authors, institute can also be specified as optional parameters. A \plainframe{} allows a picture, for example, to fill the whole frame. Support figure and table environments, transparency effects, a \transduration command, animation commands, a pauses environment. Beamer also provides compatibility with other packages like prosper. The package now incorporates the functionality of the former translator package, which is used for customising the package for use in other language environments.
LaTeX is a widely-used macro package for TeX, providing many basic document formating commands extended by a wide range of packages. It is a development of Leslie Lamport's LaTeX 2.09, and superseded the older system in June 1994. The basic distribution is catalogued separately, at latex-base; apart from a large set of contributed packages and third-party documentation (elsewhere on the archive), the distribution includes: - a bunch of required packages, which LaTeX authors are "entitled to assume" will be present on any system running LaTeX; and - a minimal set of documentation detailing differences from the 'old' version of LaTeX in the areas of user commands, font selection and control, class and package writing, font encodings, configuration options and modification of LaTeX.
An Infrastructure for Semantic Preloading of LaTeX Documents
The sTeX package collection is a version of TeX/LaTeX that allows to markup TeX/LaTeX documents semantically without leaving the document format, essentially turning it into a document format for mathematical knowledge management (MKM).
