\maketitle

\noindent
This package marks each page of the \textsc{dvi} file with its sequence number.
Useful if there are duplicate page numbers in the output, eg,\\
\textit{1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, \dots}\\
become\\
\textit{1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 1.4, 2.5, 3.6, 4.7, 5.8, 6.9, \dots}

These numbers do not appear in the page number itself, but can be used
in the driver command to select a page range, eg, in em\TeX, use\\
\verb|dvihplj filename /b1.4 /e 4.7|

If you are using \texttt{dvips}, this package is unnecessary, since it uses the
convention that the avove pages have names\\
\textit{1, 2, 3, 1.1, 2.1, 3.1, 4, 5, 6, \dots}\\
where .0 is optional (first occurrence of that page number).\\
\verb|dvips -p1.1  -l4 filename|
