+# widows-and-orphans
+
+-----
+
+Automatically identifying widows and orphans in a document
+
+This package identifies all widows and orphans in a document to help a user to get rid of them. The act of resolving still needs to be done manually: By rewriting text, running some paragraph long or short or or explicitly breaking in some strategic place.
+
+It will also identify and warn about words broken across columns or pages and display formulas separated from their introductory paragraph.
+
+ The initial idea was born way back in 2012 when somebody on stackexchange asked if it would be possible to [Find all widows and orphans](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/45528/finding-all-widows-and-orphans).
+
+Package source can be found below:
+
+https://github.com/FrankMittelbach/fmitex/
+
+The license is LPPL.
+
+A general discussion on how to manage widows and orphans can be found in a TugBoat article located at
+
+https://www.latex-project.org/publications/indexbytopic/2e-packages/
