bxcalc package ― main

This package simply loads all other packages in this bundle.

Note: Under the LaTeX kernel of the version 2020/10/01 or later, the bxcalcize package is not loaded since it is no longer needed.

bxcalcize package ― to make calc expressions available in more places

Some standard LaTeX commands involving length specification do not allow the use of calc expressions. This package makes such uses possible.

See the manual bxcalcize.pdf for detail.

Note: The functionality of this package will be provided by the LaTeX kernel of the version 2020/10/01.

bxcalcux package ― to add user-defined units to the calc syntax

This package enables users to define new length units and use them in calc expressions.

See the manual bxcalcux.pdf for detail.
