    Jos|- Romildo Malaquias submitted back-to-back updates to the
    pygmentex
    package.
    Versions: 0.12 2026-03-18 and 0.12.1 2026-03-19

    Summary description: Use Pygments to format code listings in documents Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PygmenTeX v0.12.1 has been released.
    PygmenTeX is a Python-based LaTeX package for typesetting code listings using the Pygments syntax highlighter. Unlike other packages, it collects all snippets and processes them in a single batch, significantly reducing compilation time.
    CHANGES IN v0.12.1 (HOTFIX)
    * List Margin Alignment: Fixed a critical regression where pygmented environments inside lists (itemize, enumerate, quotation) ignored parent margins. Code blocks now perfectly inherit the correct list indentation and line widths.
    * Robust Option Parsing: The Python backend's option parser has been completely rewritten to be brace-aware ({...}). This prevents Pygments from crashing when handling complex, comma-separated LaTeX arguments (such as advanced tcolorbox TikZ overlays).
    RECENTLY ADDED IN v0.12
    * autogobble Option: Introduced the highly requested autogobble feature. This automatically calculates and strips common leading whitespace from code snippets, allowing authors to natively indent their \begin{pygmented} blocks to match the surrounding LaTeX source code.
    * Modernized Parsing: Completely rewrote the internal LaTeX environment parser to safely preserve active newlines, resolving long-standing conflicts with fancyvrb.
    For full documentation, please refer to the updated manual included in the package.
