siunitx version 2: snapshot four
I’m continuing to work on version 2 of siunitx, and the code has now reached the point where the basic macros (\num, \SI, \si, \numrange and \SIrange) work at least as well as the version one code. There are probably still some bugs, but I’m using the new code for my own work and at the moment all seems good. The internal improvements mean that while there are still things to add this should not be too hard.
If you want to try things out, as before you can grab things here:
- The source (dtx file)
- The documentation (pdf file)
- The extracted package (sty file)
- A ready-to-install (tds) zip file
What is on the list next is tackling the tables issues. That is going to be hard work, as there are some complicated things to sort out. So I will probably add a few bits and pieces to the rest of the code at the same time.
As always, feedback by e-mail or to the BerliOS site is very welcome.
I’m new to this, but what do I do with a TDS file?

It’s intended to be unzipped inside your local texmf directory (~/texmf on Linux, ~/Library/texmf on MacOS X, possibly %USERPROFILE%\texmf on Windows). After running texhash, that should install the development version of siunitx.
