TeX Live 2019 nicefrac package

Post by tygrysuav »

I've just installed TeX Live 2019 and can not find the nicefrac package. It can not be found in the repository or in the installed packages. Has it been removed permanently? Maybe there is a replacement for it?

TeX Live 2019 nicefrac package

nicefrac is part of units (and that is available for TeX Live 2019). Both packages are out-dated. An alternative to nicefrac would be, e.g., xfrac. A recommended alternative to units would be siunitx.
Sorry, but I can no longer participate here as the administrator is trampling on my wishes on one of his other platforms. :cry:
