+nuc.sty is provided by Neal Davis (davis68@illinois.edu). This package provides
+automatic notation for nuclear isotopes. Isotopes which have Z with more digits
+than A require special spacing to appear properly. nuc.sty is released under
+the LaTeX Project Public License.
+
+This is an early draft (v.0.1) of this package.
+
+It is invoked in the usual way,
+ \usepackage{nuc}
+and each element and isotope is indicated by \(element name){(element weight)}.
+For instance,
+ \Pa{231}
+ \O{18}
+ \H{3}
+
+It appears that under certain circumstances, \protect may be required prior to
+invoking the element (i.e., \protect\U{235}).
+
+This package does not currently support omission of the atomic number subscript,
+although that is planned for the next version. \ No newline at end of file
