+The readarray package allows one to input formatted data into elements
+of a 2-D or 3-D array (or a 1-D file-record array). Subsequently, that
+data may be recalled at will using an array-cell indexing nomenclature.
+The data can be but need not be numerical in nature. It can be, for
+example, formatted text. In this regard, the array stores the
+unexpanded data from the file, if macros are present in the data.
+
+As of V2.0, the separator by which data is parsed may be customized by
+the user. A totally new package syntax has also been introduced (the
+prior syntax is retained as deprecated macros). Various levels of bound
+checking are now available to the user.
+
+While the package can be used for any application where indexed data is
+called for, the package proves particularly useful when elements of
+multiple arrays must be recallable and dynamically combined at time of
+compilation, rather than in advance.
