The l3experimental packages are a collection of experimental
implementations for aspects of the LaTeX3 kernel, dealing with
higher-level ideas such as the Designer Interface. Some of them
work as stand alone packages, providing new functionality, and
can be used on top of LaTeX2e with no changes to the existing
kernel. The present release includes: - xgalley, which controls
boxes receiving text for typesetting. - l3dt: kernel support
for data tables; - l3regex: kernel support for regular
expression search and replace operations; - l3sort: kernel
support for sorting sequences, token lists or comma-lists,
according to user-specified comparison criteria; - l3str:
kernel support for string manipulation; - l3tl-build: kernel
support for token list building; - l3tl_analysis: kernel
support for token list analysis; and - xcoffins, which allows
the alignment of boxes using a series of 'handle' positions,
supplementing the simple TeX reference point. All the files of
the bundle are also available in the Subversion (SVN)
repository of the LaTeX3 Project. The bundle on CTAN is based
on a snapshot of the SVN repository on 2013-10-11.
