Rainer Schoepf kindly forwarded me the files for Frank Mittelbach's MULTICOL environment. They are now in place and available for your access from the Sam Houston State University file server, FILESERV. Below is the description file which a DIRECTORY MULTICOL command to FILESERV would yield. I will be putting in place a few other files from the Mittelbach-Schoepf collection from Mainz over the next few days (weeks?) as time becomes available. If you have anything you would like to submit to our packages or style collection, please forward them/it to STY-Mgr@SHSU.BITNET or STY-Mgr@SHSU.edu and I will work to arrange it. Regards, George MULTICOL -------- The MULTICOL package include the complete set of files associated with Frank Mittelbach's <PZF5HZ@RUIPC1E.BITNET> multicols environment in LaTeX. Rainer Schoepf <schoepf@sc.ZIB-Berlin.DE> contributed these files and patiently tested their consistency in delivery from FILESERV. The multicols environment allows switching between one and multicolumn format on the same page. Footnotes are handled correctly (for the most part), but will be placed at the bottom of the page and not under each column. LaTeX's float mechanism, however, is partly disabled in the current implementation and will be added in a later version. At the moment only floats contributed outside the scope of the environment will find their way into the actual output. To retrieve the entire set of files, please include the command SENDME MULTICOL in the body of a mail message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (FILESERV@SHSU.edu). If, for some reason, you should only require a specific file from this distribution, such as MULTICOL.NEWDOC_STY, please include the command SENDME MULTICOL.NEWDOC_STY in the body of a mail message to FILESERV.
