Description
-----------
LaTeX users sometimes need to ensure that two or more blocks of text
-occupy the same amount of horizontal space on the page. To that end,
-the eqparbox package defines a new command, \eqparbox, which works
-just like \parbox, except that instead of specifying a width, one
-specifies a tag. All eqparboxes with the same tag -- regardless of
-where they are in the document -- will stretch to fit the widest
-eqparbox with that tag. This simple, equal-width mechanism can be
-used for a variety of alignment purposes, as is evidenced by the
-examples in eqparbox's documentation.
