The current release % focuses on inline note-taking, with a lightweight set of macros designed to % be simple and practical for both solo and collaborative workflows. Five % built-in commands---\cs{todo}, \cs{note}, \cs{comment}, \cs{fixed}, and % \cs{placeholder}---cover common use cases out of the box, and % \cs{zebranewnote} lets you define additional note types as needed. Notes are % automatically numbered per type, marked with a customisable % symbol\marginnote{\textdbend} (default: \cs{textdbend}) in the nearest % margin, and summarised with a summary table plus a detailed note list at the % end of the document. Passing the \opt{final} option suppresses all notes for % production output. %\end{abstract} % %\tableofcontents % %\begin{documentation} % %\section{Introduction} % % \pkg{zebra} is a writing revision toolkit. The current release focuses on % inline note-taking. Many note-taking and to-do packages exist for \LaTeX{}, % but most fall into one of two traps: they either offer an overwhelming % feature set that tries to cover every conceivable use case, or they clutter % the margins with oversized colourful boxes and arrows that make the document % hard to read. % % \pkg{zebra} takes a different approach. It aims to be \emph{simple} % ---intuitive commands with only the arguments you actually need---and % \emph{good enough}---notes appear inline with a small visual cue in the % margin, keeping the document readable while still making annotations easy to % spot. Each note type is automatically numbered, and a summary table plus a % detailed note list at the end of the document serve as a gentle reminder to % address them before the final version. % %\section{Installation} % %\changes{v0.7.0}{2019/07/01}{Move to docstrip} % % The package is supplied in \file{dtx} format and as a pre-extracted zip file. % The latter is the most convenient option for most users: simply unzip it into % your local texmf directory and run \texttt{texhash} to update the file-name % database, or unzip the files directly into your working directory. To unpack % the \file{dtx} yourself, run \texttt{tex \jobname.dtx} to extract the package, % or \texttt{pdflatex \jobname.dtx} to extract it and typeset the documentation at % the same time.\footnote{Running \texttt{latexmk \jobname.dtx} is even more % convenient as it handles multiple compilation passes automatically.} % %\section{Using the package} % % Load the package in the preamble with any desired options. %\begin{LaTeXdemo}[code only] % \usepackage[]{zebra} % was zebra-goodies %\end{LaTeXdemo} % %\subsection{Package Options} %\label{sec:options} % %\DescribeOption{draft} %\DescribeOption{final} % These two options are complementary. Default: \texttt{true} (draft mode). All % notes are typeset inline and a summary table plus a detailed note list are % appended at the end of the document. Setting \opt{final} (or |draft=false|) % suppresses all notes and the generated lists, producing clean output ready for % distribution. % %\DescribeOption{sort} % Controls the order of the detailed note list printed at the end of the % document. Default: \texttt{none} (document order). % |sort=type| groups them by note type. % %\DescribeOption{pagelinks} % Controls whether page numbers in the detailed note list are clickable. % Default: \texttt{true}. Set |pagelinks=false| to disable these links. The % complementary option \opt{nopagelinks} is also accepted. % %\DescribeOption{font-expansion} % Controls \pkg{microtype} font expansion. This usually improves the % appearance of the document. Disable it if it conflicts with your engine % or another package by setting |font-expansion=false|. The complementary % option \opt{nofont-expansion} is also accepted. Default: \texttt{true}. % \pkg{microtype} remains loaded when expansion is disabled. % %\subsection{Notes Macros} % % All note commands share the syntax \cs{cmd}\oarg{name}\marg{text}. Each also % has a prefixed alias (e.g.\ \cs{zebratodo}) that is always available, % regardless of name conflicts. If a short name clashes with another loaded % package, \pkg{zebra} will \emph{not} overwrite the existing % definition; use the prefixed form instead. % %\begin{function}{\todo, \zebratodo} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{todo}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \cs{zebratodo}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \end{syntax} %\end{function} % % The primary command provided by \pkg{zebra} is \cs{todo}. It inserts % an inline note in the current paragraph, typeset in a predefined colour and % marked with a symbol in the nearest margin. The mandatory \meta{text} % describes the task; the optional \meta{name} specifies who is responsible for % addressing it, which is particularly useful during collaborative writing. % % \begin{LaTeXdemo} % The motivation section still feels too vague \todo{revise the introduction % before submission} and could benefit from a concrete running example to % guide the reader through the key ideas step by step. % \end{LaTeXdemo} % % The optional argument assigns one or more people to the note. Assignees appear % prefixed with \texttt{@}, and notes of the same type are numbered % sequentially. % % \begin{LaTeXdemo} % The related work section needs more references \todo[alice]{add two or % three citations from the latest survey} to recent advances in the field. We % should also double-check the experimental setup before the camera-ready % deadline \todo[bob, carol]{verify the hyperparameter table against the % source code and update any outdated entries and let's check afterwards}. % \end{LaTeXdemo} % Notes can appear inside moving arguments such as \cs{section} and % \cs{caption}. To ensure stable numbering and cross-references, add a % \cs{label} inside the note: % % \begin{LaTeXdemo}[code only] % \section{Introduction\todo[jerry]{\label{zebra:heading}fix the name}} % \begin{figure} % \caption{Speed vs distance. \todo{need to insert the figure}} % \end{figure} % \end{LaTeXdemo} % % With a \cs{label}, the note is counted once regardless of how many % times the heading appears (table of contents, running headers, etc.). % Notes without a \cs{label} in moving arguments are still safe but may % receive a separate number in each context. % %\begin{function}{\note, \zebranote} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{note}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \cs{zebranote}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \end{syntax} %\end{function} %\begin{function}{\comment, \zebracomment} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{comment}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \cs{zebracomment}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \end{syntax} %\end{function} %\begin{function}{\fixed, \zebrafixed} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{fixed}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \cs{zebrafixed}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \end{syntax} %\end{function} %\begin{function}{\placeholder, \zebraplaceholder} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{placeholder}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \cs{zebraplaceholder}\oarg{name}\marg{text} % \end{syntax} %\end{function} % These commands share the same syntax and behaviour as \cs{todo}; they differ % only in name and colour, providing semantic distinction for different % annotation purposes. Note that \cs{zebracomment} is used in the example below % because \cs{comment} is already defined by \pkg{l3doc}. % \begin{LaTeXdemo} % We may want to reorganise \note{how should we structure the intro?} this % part before the final submission. The experimental setup in Section~2 has % already been reviewed by a collaborator \zebracomment[tom]{the setup % description looks clear now}. Results are presented in the following tables % and figures, but some of them are still missing. % % The discussion has been revised \placeholder[lucy, tom]{good job!} % and the related work comparison strengthened with two additional references. % The list of references still needs a second pass \todo{check bibliography % entries for formatting} before we can finalize the submission. % % With those items addressed, the conclusion has been rewritten so the % argument flows more naturally from the results. \fixed[John]{updated the % conclusion} The overall structure now matches the revised outline we agreed % on last week. \note[who]{anything else?} If not, the draft should be fine. % \end{LaTeXdemo} % %\begin{function}{\zebranewnote} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{zebranewnote}\marg{note name}\marg{xcolor name}\oarg{symbol} % \end{syntax} %\end{function} % Creates a new note type.

Two separate problems % are handled independently: % % \paragraph{Problem A --- \cs{sbox} re-measurement.} % \cs{@makecaption} typesets the caption in an \cs{sbox} for width % measurement, then typesets it again if it is long. Both executions % share the same \cs{inputlineno}, so the \emph{instance key} % (\meta{type}\verb"|"\meta{author}\verb"|"\meta{body}\verb"|"\cs{inputlineno}) % catches the replay. The second execution reuses the first's allocation % and re-renders, so writes that were lost inside the discarded \cs{sbox} % are re-emitted by the actual typesetting pass. % % \paragraph{Problem B --- TOC/LOF/header replay.} % The note token is written verbatim to \texttt{.toc}/\texttt{.lof}/marks % and re-executed in a secondary context with a different % \cs{inputlineno}. For \emph{labeled} notes the replay is caught by % two mechanisms: % \begin{enumerate} % \item A \emph{stable key} (\meta{type}\verb"|"\meta{label name}) % stored alongside the allocation; a later encounter from % marks/headers that still carries the \cs{label} finds this key % and suppresses. % \item A \emph{content signature} % (\meta{type}\verb"|"\meta{author}\verb"|"\meta{sanitised body}) % written to the \texttt{.aux} file; on the next pass, TOC/LOF % encounters whose \cs{label} was consumed by % \cs{protected@write}'s \cs{edef} match the signature and % suppress. % \end{enumerate} % Unlabeled notes in moving arguments receive independent allocations % (cosmetic duplicate); adding \cs{label} is the recommended fix. % % \begin{macrocode} \RequirePackage{xcolor} \RequirePackage{marginnote} \cs_new_eq:NN \@@_kernel_label:n \label %% -- dedup data structures -- %% Maps any key (instance, stable, or content-sig) to the allocation. \prop_new:N \g@@_note_target_prop \prop_new:N \g@@_note_display_prop %% Content signatures of labeled notes from previous pass (.aux). \prop_new:N \g@@_note_sig_known_prop %% Content signatures written this pass (dedup aux writes). \prop_new:N \g@@_note_sig_written_prop %% Content signature stored per stable key (for label-conflict detection). \prop_new:N \g@@_note_stable_sig_prop \tl_new:N \l@@_note_display_tl \tl_new:N \l@@_note_key_tl %% Instance key: unique per source location. \cs_new:Npn \@@_instance_key:nnn #1#2#3 { \tl_to_str:n {#1} | \tl_to_str:n {#2} | \tl_to_str:n {#3} | \int_eval:n { \tex_inputlineno:D } } %% Content signature: body stringified with ALL \label{...} stripped. %% Matches across body (has labels) and TOC (labels consumed by \edef). %% The optional \protect prefix covers marks and \protected@write paths. %% Uses replace_all so that multiple labels are all stripped. \cs_new_protected:Npn \@@_content_sig:nnnN #1#2#3#4 { \tl_set:Nx \l_tmpa_tl { \tl_to_str:n {#3} } \regex_replace_all:nnN { (?: \\protect \s* )? \\label \s* \{ [^{}]* \} } { } \l_tmpa_tl \tl_set:Nx #4 { \tl_to_str:n {#1} | \tl_to_str:n {#2} | \l_tmpa_tl } } %% Extract the first \label name from the stringified body. %% Sets #2 to the label name, or clears it if none found. %% The optional \protect prefix covers marks and \protected@write paths. \cs_new_protected:Npn \@@_extract_label:nN #1#2 { \tl_set:Nx \l_tmpb_tl { \tl_to_str:n {#1} } \tl_set_eq:NN \l_tmpc_tl \l_tmpb_tl \regex_replace_once:nnN { \A .* (?: \\protect \s* )? \\label \s* \{ ([^{}]*) \} .* \Z } { \1 } \l_tmpb_tl \tl_if_eq:NNTF \l_tmpb_tl \l_tmpc_tl { \tl_clear:N #2 } { \tl_set_eq:NN #2 \l_tmpb_tl } } %% Stable key for labeled notes. %% #2 is expected to be already stringified (from regex extraction), %% so no \tl_to_str is applied — otherwise an unexpanded variable %% token would be stringified instead of its value. \cs_new:Npn \@@_stable_key:nn #1#2 { \tl_to_str:n {#1} | label | #2 } %% Allocate a fresh note: increment the type counter, generate %% a unique hypertarget name, and record the note in the list body. \cs_new_protected:Npn \@@_allocate_note:nnn #1#2#3 { \int_gincr:c { g@@_note_count_#1_int } \tl_set:Nx \l@@_note_display_tl { \@@_note_count:n {#1} } \int_gincr:N \g@@_note_id_int \tl_set:Nx \l@@_note_target_tl { zebranote.\int_use:N \g@@_note_id_int } \@@_record_note:nnnnn {#1} { \l@@_note_display_tl } {#2} {#3} { \l@@_note_target_tl } } %% Aux-file interface: record a content signature together with the %% originating instance key.

The table now looks fine \fixed[carol]{alignment corrected}, but one figure is still missing \placeholder[eve]{insert the overview figure}. A short transition would also help the flow. The middle section should probably end with a clearer summary sentence before the discussion begins. That summary can stay compact, but it should signal why the next section matters. Please verify the totals \note[frank]{check the numbers} and confirm the wording in the last paragraph \comment[tom]{is this sentence too strong?}. A small typo has already been fixed \fixed[heidi]{typo corrected}. The ending should stay short. The final sentence should return to the main claim rather than repeat background material. You can place \todo[judy]{summarise the findings} anywhere once the narrative is stable. One more short paragraph is enough to show how the markers stay readable in a compact two-column layout. The example is intentionally small, but it should still look like a realistic revision pass. \end{document} % % \end{macrocode} % %\end{implementation} % %\PrintChanges %\PrintIndex
