Only true LaTeX errors are -included, TeX errors are beyond the reach of ordinary -macros. - - -How to Use -========== - -Install the files - morehelp.sty - morehelp.dyn - morehelp.eng -at a place where TeX can find them. Depending on -your installation you might have to run a special script -like texhash. Now you can say - \usepackage{morehelp} -in the preamble of your document. But if LaTeX complains - ! LaTeX Error: File `morehelp.sty' not found. -then you are in trouble. Are the three files placed -correctly? As a last resort you might even -consider to put them in one directory with your TeX -sources, they are almost always found there. - -Try and make some errors and look what morehelp.sty -has to say about them. Let's say - - \documentclass{article} - \usepackage{morehelp} - \begin{document} - For 4$ you can get an \item or an eqnarray! - - \begin{eqnarray} - a & = & b*a & for b=1 or a=1 - \end{eqnarray} - \end{document} - -Try it! It cannot do wonders, but it is much better -than nothing at all. - - -Caveats -======= - -This is an early alpha version. It is not yet robust -enough and may cause weird errors from time to time. -(They did not occur when I tested it, but I am pretty -sure they are out there. This style required quite a -lot of hacks.) - -Please test this style even if you are an experienced -TeXnician, so that we can make it foolproof. - -It is slightly more probable that TeX runs out of -memory while handling an error, so that an even more -obscure message might be output. So in the case of -garbled messages, it might be worthwhile to *exclude* -\usepackage{morehelp} from your preamble! - -If you cannot figure out the cause of an error with this -package, DO NOT SEND A MAIL asking me to fix your problem. -I won't answer. THIS PACKAGE is there to help you, I am not. -That may sound harsh, but you will find out everything with -the help of your local TeXnician. - - -Extensions -========== - -This package defines two more errors. - -"You must be in horizontal mode to use \@." - -Explanation: You issued the command \@, but you were in either -math or vertical mode. You are required to start a pragraph -before you may use \@. morehelp.sty issues this error instead -of the awful "... cannot use \spacefactor..." message, -but only if it cannot determine a more plausible reason. - -"You forgot to call \makeatletter." - -Explanation: You issued the command \@, but from the context -morehelp.sty could determine that you actually wanted to issue -a command sequence that starts with \@... which is not allowed -here. Enclose your code in \makeatletter\makeatother pairs and TeX -will be happy. - - -Closing Remarks -=============== - -This package originated from a discussion on the newsgroup -de.comp.text.tex. Thanks to David Kastrup, Markus Kohm, -and Florian Weimer for their participation. - -You may use, copy, and redistribute this software as you -like, but - - any distribution must contain all the files that - come with this package. - - you must inform the author of any commercial distribution. - - you must be aware that this package is distributed in the - hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; - without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or - FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
