+%
+% \section{Introduction}
+%
+% In mathematical equations, it is sometimes necessary to use indices
+% (subscript or superscript) that are positioned at the left side of a
+% symbol.
+% In tensor mathematics, for instance, some notations use a transponed
+% sign at the left side of the symbol:
+% \begin{eqnarray*}
+% \leftidx{^\mathrm{t}}{\left(A_{ij}\right)}{} &=&
+% \left(A_{ji}\right)
+% \end{eqnarray*}
+%
+% For symbols with a normal character height, this can be reached by
+% simply put the indices without an own symbol:
+%
+% \noindent
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
+% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
+%${_1^2}a_3^4$
+% \end{verbatim}
+% \end{minipage}
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
+% ${_1^2}a_3^4$
+% \end{minipage}
+%
+% \noindent
+% Is the symbol larger, this leads to unsatisfactory results:
+%
+% \noindent
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
+% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
+%${_1^2}\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)_3^4$
+% \end{verbatim}
+% \end{minipage}
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
+% ${_1^2}\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)_3^4$
+% \end{minipage}
+%
+% \noindent
+% A better output can be reached by using the package |leftidx.sty|:
+%
+% \noindent
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
+% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
+%$\leftidx{_1^2}{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}{_3^4}$
+% \end{verbatim}
+% \end{minipage}
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
+%$\leftidx{_1^2}{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}{_3^4}$
+% \end{minipage}
+%
+% \section{Usage of the package}
+%
+% Two commands are provided by the package.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\leftidx}%
+% The \cs{leftidx} command has the syntax
+% \cs{leftidx}\marg{left indices}\marg{symbol}\marg{right indices}.
+% This command typesets the symbol \meta{symbol} with indices on the
+% left and on the right side.
+% Example:
+%
+% \noindent
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
+% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
+%$\leftidx{_1^2}{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}{_3^4}$
+% \end{verbatim}
+% \end{minipage}
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
+% $\leftidx{_1^2}{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}{_3^4}$
+% \end{minipage}
+%
+% \noindent
+% You may omit left or right indices by using empty arguments.
+%
+% The next example shows the same in the different mathematical
+% styles:
+% \def\asdf{\leftidx{_1^2}{\left(\frac1b\right)}{_3^4}}%
+% \begin{displaymath}
+% \displaystyle\asdf\quad\textstyle\asdf\quad
+% \scriptstyle\asdf\quad\scriptscriptstyle\asdf
+% \end{displaymath}
+% As you can see from the left indices, the horizontal spacing of the
+% left indices is not perfect.
+% You have to adjust them by yourself.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\ltrans}%
+% The \cs{ltrans}\marg{symbol} command typesets a small upright ``t''
+% as transponed sign on the left side of \meta{symbol}.
+% Example:
+%
+% \noindent
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
+% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
+%$\ltrans{\underline{\underline{J}}}=
+%\underline{\underline{J}}^{-1}$
+% \end{verbatim}
+% \end{minipage}
+% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
+% $\ltrans{\underline{\underline{J}}}=\underline{\underline{J}}^{-1}$
+% \end{minipage}
+%
+%
