+Here's a copy of my LaTeX2e style file for typesetting programs
+and algorithms in my favourite style without having to type
+in endless tabbing commands. Each line is set in math mode
+so all the indentation and spacing is done automatically.
+The notation |variable_name| can be used within normal text,
+maths expressions or programs to indicate a variable name.
+Use \origbar to get a normal | symbol in a program.
+The commands \A, \B, \R, \T and \Z typeset the corresponding bold
+letter with the next object as a substript (eg \S1 typesets {\bf
+S$_1$} etc). They now cope with primes as well, (eg $\S2'''$). The
+program.sty file can be easily edited to reflect your favoured style.
+Typesetting a program is as easy as:
+
+\(\IF x \ne 0 \THEN |long_name|_{123} = x^y \FI\)
+
+See the program-demo.tex file for examples.
+
+The file should work with or without AMSLaTeX.
+
+This work is released under the GPL version 3.
