+# DESCRIPTION #
+
+After `\usepackage{centeredline}` one can use
+
+ \centeredline{....}
+
+to get the argument centered, in a better way than with `\centerline`:
+
+1. `\verb` or other catcode changes inside the argument are allowed,
+2. the centering (with respect to the surrounding text paragraph) will
+ be as expected if this all happens inside an item from a LaTeX list
+ environment.
+
+Material whose natural width exceeds the linewidth will get properly
+centered too.
+
+The macro itself may be encountered in paragraph or in vertical mode.
+It places the argument inside a `\hbox` (inside an extra simple group).
+
+
+# HISTORY #
+
+I have used this macro since 2013 and it has served me well.
+
+I am making it public as is, without any re-thinking about whether it may
+have some limitations which I somehow did not encounter in my personal usage.
+Suggestions for improvements are welcome, and will be recorded although I do
+not expect to update the package anytime soon.
