+Canoniclayout v.1.0
+Canoniclayout is a small module that allows to design a canonic layout
+based of the great circle inscribed within the page and tangent to the
+horizontal sides of the text block rectangle. The margins reflect the
+trimmed page shape ratio, therefore the page block principal diagonal
+coincides with the corresponding page diagonal; this layout is especially
+good for ISO shapes but can be used with many other traditional book
+page~shapes.

-% by trimming an ISO A4 stock paper, might be suitable with a 10\,pt

-% might be more suited for a 12pt normal font size (86 characters with
-% 10pt Latin Modern fonts is too much). The computations might be left
-% to the \class{memoir} class commands, but it's better the user

-% Working with the \class{memoir} facilities, we can determine the page
-% shape factor and we save it into the control sequence |\CLshape|.
+% Now we can determine the page shape factor and we save it into the
+% control sequence \cs{CLshape}. The trick of multiplying by \cs{p@}, a
+% length of 1\,pt, is a simple trick for reducing the shape ratio to a
+% length whose numerical value is exactly the ratio we are interested in.
+% By stripping the `pt' part from this dimension value we remain with the
+% real number we want to keep in memory. Of course we need also the
+% reciprocal value so that we have to perform this calculation two times
+% with different factors. This “strange” way of computing real ratios
+% derives from the ability of the \eTeX\ engine to scale lengths with a
+% higher computational precision than “normal” \TeX\ can do with the
+% standard dimension and integer operations. In facts all the computational
+% operations are performed within the computer CPU and the intermediate
+% first result of the multiplication is kept into a double length register,
+% so that no bits are rounded or truncated; the division operation is
+% therefore performed with a double length numerator and a single length
+% denominator, so that, again, almost no information is lost at the
+% inevitable end of the division algorithm with a non vanishing remainder.

+% Just for testing the number of characters in a line the following macros
+% are provided. A couple of scratch dimension registers will be used
+% |dimen@| and |\abcwidth|; |\abcwidth| will hold the current lowercase
+% alphabet length, and |\dimen@| will hold several values in succession.
+% The scratch counters |\count254|, |\count252|, and |count250| will
+% receive the final result to be printed out. \eTeX\ arithmetics will be
+% used throughout, and we know this is possible, since we already tested
+% it at the very beginning.

% Another service macro for the user's sake is |\charactersperpage|; this
-% macro typesets the average number of characters per line, the numbers of
-% lines per page, and eventually their product, a good estimate of the
-% number of characters per page.

-% Many text editors have facilities for counting a “compuscript”

-% matter pages, so that s/he can evaluate the total amount of signatures
-% of the whole typeset document; of course, by typesetting it with
-% \prog{(pdf)latex} s/he knows exactly the number of pages of the final

-Canoniclayout is a small extension package that allows to design
-a canonic layout based on the great circle inscribed within the
-page and tangent to the horizontal sides of the type block rectangle.
-The margins reflect the trimmed page shape ratio, therefore the
-type block principal diagonal coincides with the corresponding
-page diagonal; this layout is especially good for ISO page shapes
-but it can be used with many other traditional book page shapes.
-
-This new version is completely new, in the sense that its code
-calculations are performed by means of the 2018 xfp package
-facilities. For this reason it cannot be used with any TeX
-distribution preceding the year 2018 and updated by the end of
-that year; should this happen this very package aborts its own
-input while advising the user by means of an Error Message.
-
-This work is released under the Latex Project Public Licence
-v.1.3c. The LPPL is distributed with any TeX system distribution
-and can be found also in any CTAN archive.
