PDF readers that support this mechanism (probably +just Adobe Acrobat/Reader) can be instructed to scroll automatically +from column to column, which facilitates on-screen reading of +two-column documents. + +Even for single-column documents, threadcol supports the creation of +multiple article threads, which help organize discontiguous but +logically related regions of text into a form that the user can scroll +through as if its contents were contiguous. + + +Installation +============ + +There's nothing special about building threadcol. To create +threadcol.sty simply run "tex threadcol.ins". Install threadcol.sty +somewhere where LaTeX can find it.

You read the +% first column of the first page, then scroll back to the top of the +% page and over to the right to read the second column, then scroll left +% to read the first column of the second page, then scroll up and over +% to read the second column, and so forth. With all this distracting +% scrolling, it's easy to lose track of where you were or what you were +% reading. +% +% The \pkgname{threadcol} package helps you avoid this situation for the +% \LaTeX\ documents you create. It puts every column into a \acro{PDF} +% ``article thread''. A user can then opt to have his \acro{PDF} reader +% automatically scroll through the document in proper reading order. In +% \AAR\ this is accomplished simply by clicking any place in the +% document window where the mouse pointer is shown as a hand with an +% arrow in it. The user can scroll forward by clicking in the document +% window or pressing \kbd{Enter} and backward by shift-clicking or +% pressing \kbd{Shift}+\kbd{Enter}. See the \AAR\ \menuentry{Help} +% documents for more information. +% +% \AAR\ provide an \Acrobatmenu{ArticleThreads}{Articles navigation +% panel} that lists all of the document's article threads and lets the +% user jump to a specified thread. Figure~\ref{fig:articles-ar9} shows +% what the \panel{Articles} panel looks like in Adobe Reader~9 on Linux. +% The panel may have to be displayed explicitly by the user. This can +% be done by right-clicking on the navigation-panel button list and +% selecting \menuentry{Articles}. Alternatively, in \AAR~9, one can +% also follow the \menu{View}\menu{Navigation +% Panels}\menuentry{Articles} menu path or in \AAR~X and~XI the +% \menu{View}\menu{Show/Hide}\menu{Navigation +% Panels}\menuentry{Articles} menu path. If \panel{Articles} appears +% as a pop-up, it can be docked simply by dragging the tab to the +% navigation panel. +% +% \begin{figure}[htbp] +% \centering +% \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{articles-ar9} +% \caption{The \panel{Articles} button and navigation panel in Adobe Reader~9} +% \label{fig:articles-ar9} +% \end{figure} +% +% I don't know if any \acro{PDF} readers other than Adobe's provide +% special viewing of threads. +% +% \bigskip +% +% Although \pkgname{threadcol} is most beneficial to two-column +% documents, it nevertheless also works with single-column +% documents---and even documents that switch between the two using +% |\onecolumn| and |\twocolumn|. In fact, although it is typeset in a +% single column, this document is itself threaded using +% \pkgname{threadcol}. Section~\ref{sec:implementation}, which presents +% the commented \pkgname{threadcol} source code, lies in a thread +% entitled, ``Developer documentation''. +% Sections~\ref{sec:introduction}--\ref{sec:limitations} +% and~\ref{sec:future-work} lie in a thread entitled, ``User +% documentation''. What this structure implies is that you can +% double-click ``User documentation'' in the +% \Acrobatmenu{ArticleThreads}{Articles navigation panel} then +% repeatedly click (or press \kbd{Enter}) on the document's text to read +% all of the user documentation while automatically skipping the +% developer documentation. Likewise, double-clicking on ``Developer +% documentation'' takes you right to that, bypassing all of the user +% documentation. +% +% Indexes are not normally read from start to finish so this document's +% index is omitted from both the ``User documentation'' and ``Developer +% documentation'' threads. +% +% +% \section{Usage} +% \label{sec:usage} +% +% One of the \pkgname{threadcol} package's goals is simplicity. All you +% have to do is include a +% \begin{verbatim} + \usepackage{threadcol} +% \end{verbatim} +% \unskip\noindent +% in your document's preamble for \pkgname{threadcol} to do its work. +% +% \bigskip +% +% \DescribeMacro{\setthreadname} +% One bit of customization that \pkgname{threadcol} does provide, +% however, is control over the name of the article thread. By default, +% this is ``Entire document''. However, if you prefer a different name, +% you can write |\setthreadname{|\meta{name}|}| to change the name of +% the article thread to \meta{name}. It is in fact permissible to +% invoke |\setthreadname| multiple times and with different names. In +% this case, \pkgname{threadcol} produces one thread per unique name. +% For example, the document shown in Figure~\ref{fig:articles-ar9} used +% two threads in the following manner: +% +% \bigskip +% \begingroup +% \obeylines +% |\setthreadname{Some thread}| +% \meta{Text for the first thread} +% |\setthreadname{Another thread}| +% \meta{Text for the second thread} +% |\setthreadname{Some thread}| +% \meta{More text for the first thread} +% \endgroup +% \bigskip +% +% \noindent +% When the user clicks on the ``Some thread'' thread, navigation +% automatically bypasses all text in the ``Another thread'' thread and +% vice versa. One caveat is that in the current version of +% \pkgname{threadcol}, |\setthreadname| issues a |\clearpage| command to +% ensure that text is assigned to the correct thread. Hence, +% \pkgname{threadcol} cannot currently be used for sophisticated +% magazine- or newspaper-style documents with intertwined threads +% weaving through the pages. Still, it may be useful for coarsely +% divided units of text. +% +% As a special case, specifying an empty thread name +% (i.e.,~|\setthreadname{}|) stops adding text to threads. This can be +% useful for a document's front matter and back matter, which may not +% belong in any thread's normal reading order. +% +% +% \section{Limitations} +% \label{sec:limitations} +% +% \pkgname{threadcol} is a fairly simple package. As such, it has a +% number of limitations, including the following: +% +% \begin{enumerate} +% \item \pkgname{threadcol} requires pdf\LaTeX\ or Lua\LaTeX; it does +% nothing when used with ordinary \LaTeX\ or +% X\lower0.5ex\hbox{\kern-.15em\reflectbox{E}}\kern-0.1667em\LaTeX\@. +% The package also relies on \pkgname{etoolbox}, which requires +% \mbox{$\varepsilon$-\TeX} support, but this is provided by all +% modern \TeX\ distributions. +% +% \item \pkgname{threadcol} is incompatible with the +% \pkgname{fixltx2e} and \pkgname{cuted} packages. These packages +% redefine \LaTeX's text-output routines in a manner that confuses +% \pkgname{threadcol}. +% +% \item Marginal notes (|\marginpar|) are not included in threads. +% The same is true for text that sticks out into the margin +% (e.g.,~using |\llap| or |\rlap|), such as the macro names in +% Section~\ref{sec:implementation}. +% +% \item As mentioned in Section~\ref{sec:usage}, threads currently +% must begin on their own page. Hence, |\setthreadname| forces a +% page break, which is often undesirable. +% +% \item \pkgname{threadcol} does not recognize columns created using +% the |multicols| environment from the \pkgname{multicol} package. +% These appear to \pkgname{threadcol} as a single column. +% +% \item No attempt is made to preserve proper reading order beyond +% page and column order. For example, if a page ends with the first +% part of a sentence and the next page begins with a top float, the +% thread will present the text in that same order: the first part of +% the sentence, then the float, then the second part of the +% sentence. Even worse, \pkgname{threadcol} is oblivious to +% footnotes that span columns; it will show the first column of +% text, including the first part of a long footnote, then the second +% column of text, which ends with the second part of the long +% footnote. +% +% \item The package has not been tested thoroughly. Consequently, +% there are probably many more limitations than those listed above. +% \end{enumerate} +% +% +% \StopEventually{^^A +% +% \setthreadname{User documentation} +% +% \section{Future work} +% \label{sec:future-work} +% +% A future version of \pkgname{threadcol} may address some of the +% limitations described in Section~\ref{sec:limitations}. In addition, +% it would great if the package could integrate seamlessly with the +% \pkgname{flowfram} package, where \acro{PDF} article threads would +% make a lot of sense. +% +% One far more difficult change to implement would be to make +% \pkgname{threadcol} cognizant of the ``true'' reading order, perhaps +% with help from the author. For example, the author could specify the +% point at which the thread should jump to a floating figure before +% jumping back to the corresponding text. +% +% In practice, \LaTeXe's output routines can be quite arcane, especially +% with regards to the handling of inserts (e.g.,~floats and footnotes). +% Getting \pkgname{threadcol} to do more than what it currently does is +% likely beyond my current level of \LaTeX\ expertise. +% +% } +% +% \setthreadname{Developer documentation} +% +% \section{Implementation} +% \label{sec:implementation} +% +% This section is intended for developers and advanced users to learn +% how \pkgname{threadcol} is implemented. Most readers can ignore this +% section. +% +% \bigskip +% +% We begin by loading a few helper packages upon which we rely: +% \pkgname{ifpdf} to ensure that we have access to |\pdfstartthread| and +% |\pdfendthread| and \pkgname{etoolbox} for the |\patchcmd| macro. +% \begin{macrocode} +\RequirePackage{ifpdf} +\RequirePackage{etoolbox} +% \end{macrocode} +% +% \begin{macro}{\thrcl@thread@name} +% Define the name of the current thread.
