+
+The warpcol package defines a tabular column type for formatting
+numerical columns in LaTeX. The column type enables numerical items to
+be right justified relative to each other, while centred beneath the
+column label. In addition, macros are provided to enable variations on
+this column type to be defined.
+
+Usage of the package is superficially similar to that of dcolumn;
+however, the alignment scheme is different, and the packages have
+different, though overlapping, applications. The key differences are:
+(1) dcolumn is based on decimal alignment, and can align numbers with
+varying numbers of decimal places; and (2) warpcol handles items that
+are not simple numbers (e.g. '< 0.001' and '$100,000').
+
+The files associated with the package are:
+
+warpcol.dtx Doc-source file containing the package and documentation
+warpcol.sty Package file, pre-unpacked from the above
+warpcol.ins Installation batch file for unpacking the package
+
+The documentation for the package can be generated by typing:
+
+latex warpcol.dtx
