CTAN update: The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the

                The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List

package.

Version: 16.0
License: lppl1.3c

Summary description: Symbols accessible from LaTeX

Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List is a document that organizes over 25000 symbols accessible from
LaTeX by topic and package.  The aim is to make it easy to find symbols and learn how to incorporate
them into a LaTeX document.  An index further helps locate symbols of interest.

Much has changed since the last release of the Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List over two years ago.
Most notably, the list presents thousands of new symbols from a handful of additional packages.
Smaller improvements include refactoring a few tables into more meaningful pieces, updating a few
tables to cover recently added or renamed symbols, moving brand icons and logos into their own
chapter, and making numerous small improvements to the index to better categorize the symbols
appearing in the document.  The accompanying SYMLIST text file now uses two columns to present a
mapping from user-visible control sequences to the document's internal representation.

While not visible to the reader of the Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List, compilation has been sped up
immensely by leveraging the Ninja build system.  The document builds with LuaLaTeX whereas previous
versions required pdfLaTeX.  In fact, the companion Raw Font Tables document now requires LuaLaTeX,
which it exploits to show font tables for OpenType and TrueType fonts that define more than 256
characters.
