The name of this site is not very accurate at the moment. Life has become rather busy and complicated in the last few years, so apologies to any readers that hoped for more from me on the LaTeX front. I live in optimism, however, that things will imminently pick up.

One of my favourite and least useful packages I’ve written is vwcol. It’s pretty scary to think that I wrote it almost seven years ago; where does the time fly? It’s so old that it wasn’t even version controlled.

A couple of years ago someone asked on TeX.sx whether it could draw rules of different colours. An easy fix, but I apparently ran out of time on it; I revisited the problem after being pinged about it again, it turns out that I fixed the code but never uploaded it to CTAN!

Silly old Will. Well, in an effort to get the ball rolling again, vwcol now has a Github repository and a new version is making its way to CTAN with very few changes except the new rulecolor option.

A belated happy new year.
