fixmetodonotes

A LaTeX package to highlight and manage FIXME and TODO annotations.

Usage

In the preamble add

\usepackage{fixmetodonotes}

In the document write notes using

I believe that in the \FIXME{"next year" or "future"?} the revolution
will not be televised.

or

\TODO{add a playful picture}

To show a list of pending notes, together with links to their pages, use

\listofnotes

The list of notes will be shown like a table of content or a list of figures.

Creating new kinds of notes

By default, fixmetodonotes provides three kinds of notes: FIXME, TODO and CITE.

It is possible to add declare new kinds of notes using the \defnote command. Notes can be declared as margin or inline notes. It is also possible to specify new ways to mark the text.

To define a new kind of note called REMOVE that displays a margin note and crosses out the text, use

\defnote{REMOVE}{margin}{\sout}

Similarly, to define a red highlight marker STYLE use

\defnote{STYLE}{inline}{\NOTES@colorline{red}}

Automatic "DRAFT" watermark

fixmetodonotes will add a "DRAFT" watermark to any page that has at least one notes.

When all the notes are removed from a page, the watermark will not be produced at all. This means that it is possible to leave fixmetodonotes enabled even in final versions of the documents.

Use the nowatermark option to disable all watermarks.

Installation

The released archives can be installed using the standard LaTeX mechanism.

latex fixmetodonotes.ins

This will generate a fixmetodonotes.sty file that can be moved to a directory searched by TeX.

You can also install fixmetodonotes in your home directory using the git repository.

export TEXMFHOME=~/.texmf
mkdir -p ~/.texmf/tex/latex/
cd ~/.texmf/tex/latex/
git clone git://github.com/gioele/fixmetodonotes.git
