ANNOUNCE: chemcono.sty for numbering chemical compounds in text
Stefan Schulz
chemcono.sty and example.tex in subdirectory chemcono
it can be found in
macros/latex/contrib/supported/chemcono
> 3. Description: LaTeX2e style file for using compound numbers
> in chemistry documents. It works like
> \cite and the \thebibliography, using \fcite
> and \theffbibliography instead. It allows compound
> names in documents to be numbered and does not
> affect the normal citation routines.
> Very helpful for writing chemistry papers.
> This style does:
> - Compound-numbering. Any compound gets a number
> using \fcite, bold face as default. This number
> is printed every time you type \fcite{..}.
> - The compounds are numbered according to the
> entries in the \theffbibliography.
> - The \ffbibliography generates an chapter with
> the heading 'Compound numbers'.
Another suggestion: Why not create a subdirectory chemistry in which
all chemistry related packages could be found?
Answer of R. Schöpf:
This is certainly a possibility. Our problem at the moment is that
none of the archive maintainers can spend the time to look through the
packages to decide what is to go where. If you can supply us with
a specific list of what to do, we will look into it.
That means, we have to find out all chemistry related packages like xymtex,
etc. to put there.
Is this a good idea?
I have also a package for printing mass spectra.
An example using this style can be found in Tetrahedron, 31, 6805-6820 (1993).
If there are some people interested in it I can upload it to Dante.
