Files : probsoln.dtx - documented source file
probsoln.ins - installation script
- sample.tex - example file
- samples - directory containing files used in sample.tex

-The package probsoln.sty is designed for lecturers who have to generate
-new problem sheets for their students on a regular basis (e.g. yearly)
-by randomly selecting a specified number of problems defined in another file.
-This means that you can easily generate a new problem sheet that is different
-from the previous year, thus alieviating the temptation of students to seek
-out the previous year's students and checking out their answers.
-The solutions to the problems can be defined along with the problem, making
-it easy to generate the solution sheet from the same source code.

To extract the code do:
latex probsoln.ins
+This will create the file probsoln.sty which should be placed
+somewhere on your TeX path. It will also create several
+sample documents, sample*.tex, and sample databases used
+by the sample documents. If you can't bring yourself to
+read the manual, please try out these sample
+documents to give yourself an idea of what to do.

To extract the documentation do:
latex probsoln.dtx
latex probsoln.dtx
-A sample file, sample.tex which loads in problems from samples/*.tex, is provided to illustrate
-the use of this package.
+Comment out \OnlyDescription if you want the documented code.
