Thanks.
If you want to try, I hope the package is complete...

I use TechWriter either.
Some time ago I was reviewing and found this site (in French)
eg.
https://www.mathraining.be/chapters/6/theories/27
In the HTML pages there is LateX, and as I was not yet using !Iris, I had 
"fun" reconstructing the pages in TeX...
There is an example in the zip file.
Tex is a standard!

At the moment I am converting programs from ARMx6 to CM4
A program which I found useful and which works well !Swish, but which I 
could no longer use.

Thanks for RiscOSM, works very well even in France :-)
Before its acquisition I had built a program which allowed me to display 
/gpx files. The manipulation of coordinates interested me.
 But your program does that very well by displaying the route on the 
map...

I'll add them to my file upload page for those curious.
