The disease had sharpened +my senses, not destroyed, not dulled them. Above +all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things +in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things +in hell. How then am I mad?

Object there was none. Passion there +was none. I loved the old man. He had never +wronged me. He had never given me insult. For +his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! +Yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that +of a vulture -- a pale blue eye with a film over it. +Whenever it fell upon me my blood ran cold, and +so by degrees, very gradually, I made up my mind +to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself +of the eye for ever. + +\begin{floatingfigure}[r]{40mm} +\begin{center} +Another figure to\\ use the environment\\ \texttt{floatingfigure} +\end{center} +\caption{The \texttt{floatingfigure} environment with \texttt{40mm} +for \textit{width} and the \texttt{r} \textit{option}.} +\end{floatingfigure} +Now this is the point. You fancy me mad. Madmen +know nothing. But you should have seen me. +You should have seen how wisely I proceeded -- +with what caution -- with what foresight, with what +dissimulation, I went to work! I was never kinder +to the old man than during the whole week before +I killed him. And every night about midnight I +turned the latch of his door and opened it oh, so +gently! And then, when I had made an opening +sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern all +closed, closed so that no light shone out, and then +I thrust in my head. Oh, you would have laughed +to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it +slowly, very, very slowly, so that I might not +disturb the old man's sleep. It took me an hour to +place my whole head within the opening so far that +I could see him as he lay upon his bed. Ha! would +a madman have been so wise as this? And then +when my head was well in the room I undid the +lantern cautiously -- oh, so cautiously -- cautiously +(for the hinges creaked), I undid it just so much +that a single thin ray fell upon the vulture eye. +And this I did for seven long nights, every night +just at midnight, but I found the eye always closed, +and so it was impossible to do the work, for it was +not the old man who vexed me but his Evil Eye. +And every morning, when the day broke, I went +boldly into the chamber and spoke courageously to +him, calling him by name in a hearty tone, and +inquiring how he had passed the night. So you see +he would have been a very profound old man, indeed, +to suspect that every night, just at twelve, I +looked in upon him while he slept. + +\begin{floatingtable}{ +\begin{tabular}{cccc} +$x$ & $x^2$ & $x^3$ & $x^4$ \\ \hline +1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ +2 & 4 & 8 & 16 \\ +3 & 9 & 27 & 81 \\ +\end{tabular}} +\caption{The \texttt{floatingtable} environment with no \textit{option}.} +\end{floatingtable} +Upon the eighth night I was more than usually +cautious in opening the door.

To think that there I was +opening the door little by little, and he not even to +dream of my secret deeds or thoughts. I fairly +chuckled at the idea, and perhaps he heard me, for +he moved on the bed suddenly as if startled. Now +you may think that I drew back -- but no. His room +was as black as pitch with the thick darkness (for +the shutters were close fastened through fear of +robbers), and so I knew that he could not see the +opening of the door, and I kept pushing it on +steadily, steadily. + +\begin{floatingtable}[l]{ +\begin{tabular}{ccc} +$\alpha$ & $\sin\alpha$ & $\cos\alpha$ \\ \hline +0 & 0 & 1 \\ +$\pi$ & 0 & $-1$ \\ +$2\pi$ & 0 & 1 \\ +\end{tabular}} +\caption{The \texttt{floatingtable} environment with the \texttt{l} +\textit{option}.} +\end{floatingtable} +I had my head in, and was about to open the +lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fasten\-ing, +and the old man sprang up in the bed, crying +out, ''Who's there?'' + +I kept quite still and said nothing. For a whole +hour I did not move a muscle, and in the meantime +I did not hear him lie down. He was still sitting +up in the bed, listening; just as I have done night +after night hearkening to the death watches in the +wall. + +\begin{floatingfigure}[l]{50mm} +\begin{center} +\Large A Figure! +\end{center} +\caption{The \texttt{floatingfigure} environment +with \textit{width} set to \texttt{50mm} and the +\texttt{l} \textit{option}.} +\end{floatingfigure} +Presently, I heard a slight groan, and I knew it +was the groan of mortal terror. It was not a groan of +pain or of grief -- oh, no! It was the low stifled sound +that arises from the bottom of the soul when +overcharged with awe. I knew the sound well. Many +a night, just at midnight, when all the world slept, +it has welled up from my own bosom, deepening, +with its dreadful echo, the terrors that distracted +me. I say I knew it well. I knew what the old +man felt, and pitied him although I chuckled at +heart. I knew that he had been lying awake ever +since the first slight noise when he had turned in +the bed. His fears had been ever since growing +upon him. He had been trying to fancy them +causeless, but could not. He had been saying to +himself, ''It is nothing but the wind in the chimney, +it is only a mouse crossing the floor,'' or, ''It is merely +a cricket which has made a single chirp.'' Yes he +has been trying to comfort himself with these +suppositions; but he had found all in vain. ALL IN VAIN, +because Death in approaching him had stalked with +his black shadow before him and enveloped the +victim. And it was the mournful influence of the +unperceived shadow that caused him to feel, although +he neither saw nor heard, to feel the presence +of my head within the room. + +When I had waited a long time very patiently +without hearing him lie down, I resolved to open +a little -- a very, very little crevice in the lantern. +So I opened it -- you cannot imagine how stealthily, +stealthily -- until at length a single dim ray like the +thread of the spider shot out from the crevice and +fell upon the vulture eye. + +It was open, wide, wide open, and I grew furious +as I gazed upon it. I saw it with perfect distinctness +-- all a dull blue with a hideous veil over it that +chilled the very marrow in my bones, but I could +see nothing else of the old man's face or person, for +I had directed the ray as if by instinct precisely upon +the damned spot. + +And now have I not told you that what you mis- +take for madness is but over-acuteness of the senses? +now, I say, there came to my ears a low, dull, quick +sound, such as a watch makes when enveloped in +cotton. I knew that sound well too. It was the +beating of the old man's heart. It increased my fury +as the beating of a drum stimulates the soldier into +courage. + +\begin{floatingfigure}[p]{90mm} +\begin{center} +A rather wide figure which still uses the \\ +\texttt{floatingfigure} environment. +\end{center} +\caption{A \texttt{floatingfigure} environment +which uses \texttt{90mm} for \textit{width} and +the \texttt{p} \textit{option}.} +\end{floatingfigure} +But even yet I refrained and kept still. I scarcely\linebreak +brea\-thed. I held\linebreak the lantern motionless. I tried +how\linebreak stead\-ily I could\linebreak +maintain the ray upon the eye. +Meantime the hellish tattoo of the heart increased. +It grew quicker and quicker, and louder and louder, +every instant. The old man's terror must have +been extreme! It grew louder, I say, louder every +moment! -- do you mark me well? I have told you +that I am nervous: so I am. And now at the dead +hour of the night, amid the dreadful silence of that +old house, so strange a noise as this excited me to +uncontrollable terror. Yet, for some minutes longer +I refrained and stood still. But the beating grew +louder, louder! I thought the heart must burst. +And now a new anxiety seized me -- the sound would +be heard by a neighbour! The old man's hour had +come! With a loud yell, I threw open the lantern +and leaped into the room. He shrieked once -- once +only. In an instant I dragged him to the floor, and +pulled the heavy bed over him. I then smiled +gaily, to find the deed so far done. But for many +minutes the heart beat on with a muffled sound. +This, however, did not vex me; it would not be +heard through the wall. At length it ceased. The +old man was dead. I removed the bed and examined +the corpse. Yes, he was stone, stone dead. I placed +my hand upon the heart and held it there many +minutes. There was no pulsation. He was stone +dead. His eye would trouble me no more. + +\begin{floatingtable}[r]{ +\begin{tabular}{l} +Two lines in one table with one single \\ +column is enough! +\end{tabular}} +\caption{This \texttt{floatingtable} uses the \texttt{r} +\textit{option}.} +\end{floatingtable} +If still you think me mad, you will think so no +longer when I describe the wise precautions I took +for the concealment of the body. The night waned, +and I worked hastily, but in silence. + +I took up three planks from the flooring of the +chamber, and deposited all between the scantlings. +I then replaced the boards so cleverly so cunningly, +that no human eye -- not even his -- could have +detected anything wrong. There was nothing to wash +out -- no stain of any kind -- no blood-spot whatever. +I had been too wary for that. + +When I had made an end of these labours, it was +four o'clock -- still dark as midnight. As the bell +sounded the hour, there came a knocking at the +street door. I went down to open it with a light +heart, -- for what had I now to fear? There entered +three men, who introduced themselves, with perfect +suavity, as officers of the police. A shriek had been +heard by a neighbour during the night; suspicion +of foul play had been aroused; information had been +lodged at the police office, and they (the officers) +had been deputed to search the premises. + +\begin{floatingtable}[p]{ +\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|} \hline +English Word & Swedish Word & Dutch Word \\ \hline +read & l\"asa & lesen \\ +speak & tala & spreken\\ +write & skriva & schrijven \\ \hline +\end{tabular}} +\caption{A \texttt{floatingtable} with the \texttt{p} +\textit{option}.} +\end{floatingtable} +I smiled, -- for what had I to fear? I bade the +gentlemen welcome. The shriek, I said, was my +own in a dream. The old man, I mentioned,\linebreak was +absent in the country. I took my visitors all over +the house. I bade them search -- search well. I led +them, at length, to his chamber. I showed them his +treasures, secure, undisturbed. In the enthusiasm +of my confidence, I brought chairs into the room, +and desired them here to rest from their fatigues, +while I myself, in the wild audacity of my perfect +triumph, placed my own seat upon the very spot +beneath which reposed the corpse of the victim. + +The officers were satisfied. My MANNER had +convinced them. I was singularly at ease. They sat +and while I answered cheerily, they chatted of +familiar things. But, ere long, I felt myself getting +pale and wished them gone. My head ached, and +I fancied a ringing in my ears; but still they sat, +and still chatted. The ringing became more distinct: +I talked more freely to get rid of the feeling: +but it continued and gained definitiveness -- until, +at length, I found that the noise was NOT within my +ears. + +No doubt I now grew VERY pale; but I talked +more fluently, and with a heightened voice. Yet +the sound increased -- and what could I do? It was +A LOW, DULL, QUICK SOUND -- MUCH SUCH A SOUND AS A +WATCH MAKES WHEN ENVELOPED IN COTTON. I gasped for +breath, and yet the officers heard it not. I talked +more quickly, more vehemently but the noise +steadily increased. I arose and argued about trifles, +in a high key and with violent gesticulations; but +the noise steadily increased. Why WOULD they not +be gone? I paced the floor to and fro with heavy +strides, as if excited to fury by the observations of +the men, but the noise steadily increased. O God! +what COULD I do? I foamed -- I raved -- I swore! I +swung the chair upon which I had been sitting, and +grated it upon the boards, but the noise arose over +all and continually increased. It grew louder -- +louder -- louder! And still the men chatted +pleasantly, and smiled. Was it possible they heard +not? Almighty God! -- no, no? They heard! -- +they suspected! -- they KNEW! -- they were making +a mockery of my horror! -- this I thought, and this +I think. But anything was better than this agony! +Anything was more tolerable than this derision! I +could bear those hypocritical smiles no longer! I +felt that I must scream or die! -- and now -- again +-- hark! louder! louder! louder! LOUDER! -- + +''Villains!'' I shrieked, ''dissemble no more!

Reid has chosen the term `Floating Figures'. + + This choice might cause some confusion, + when we adapt these macros for \LaTeX, + since Leslie Lamport uses the term `float' for objects + which are realized as \TeX-\verb+\inserts+. + While L. Lamports floats are floating in `main vertical list', + floats introduced by Th. Reid + are floating in paragraphs. + For the following we adopt the latter meaning. + \section{How to use it} + The Floating Figures style option is fully compatible with + \LaTeX's standard figure facility: + \begin{enumerate} + \item Floating Figures and standard figures may be requested + in any sequence, + \item Floating Figures can be captioned like standard figures, + \item captioned Floating Figures are inserted in the list of figures + which may be printed by the standard + \verb+\listoffigures+ command. + \end{enumerate} + A Floating Figure may be requested as follows: + \begin{verbatim} + \documentstyle[floatfig]{article} + \begin{document} + \initfloatingfigs + . + . + \begin{floatingfigure}{5.6cm} + \vspace{6.cm} + \caption{Intermolecular potential K-Xe}% optional ! + \end{floatingfigure} + . + . + \end{document} + \end{verbatim} + where {\tt 5.6cm} specifies the width of the figure space. + A Floating Figure may only be requested in vertical mode, that is + between paragraphs. + + A Floating Figure will be set as soon as possible after its request + has be encountered by \TeX. + That means, + it will be tested if there is enough vertical space + on the current page; + otherwise the figure moves to the next page. + + Floating Figures are set {\bf alternating}, + that is on the right hand side on odd and + on the left hand side on even numbered pages. + % + \subsection{Restrictions} + \begin{enumerate} + \item The {\tt FLOATFIG} style option may not be combined with the + {\tt TWOCOLUMN} style option, + \item a Floating Figure will never appear in a paragraph + which begins on top of a page. + \end{enumerate} + % + \section{About the internals} + % + We have extended the macros designed by Th.~Reid with regard to: + \begin{enumerate} + \item implantation into the \LaTeX{} context, + \item alternating setting of Floating Figures as explained above, + \item generation of warning messages for `collisions' of + two Floating Figures. + \end{enumerate} + % + \subsection{Implantation into the \LaTeX{} context} + The PLAIN-\TeX{} implementation by Th.~Reid + is based on a redefined \verb+\output+ routine: + % + \begin{verbatim} + \edef\oldoutput{\the\output}% + \output={\the\outputpretest\ifoutput\oldoutput\fi} + \outputpretest={\outputtrue} + \end{verbatim} + % + If a Floating Figure is requested, + the content of the + \verb+\outputpretest+ token register is prepared to decide: + \begin{enumerate} + \item if there is enough vertical space to set the Floating Figure, + \item if setting of a Floating Figure is in progress or + \item if indeed the current page has to be sent to the DVI file. + \end{enumerate} + % + In general, \TeX{} has to deal with more than one paragraph until + a Floating Figure will be completely processed. + During this process + the redefined \verb+\output+ routine is + called at the begin of {\bf every} paragraph; + this is done indirectly + by expanding the control sequence \verb+\tryfig+. + Therefore, the \verb+\everypar+ token + list is prepared by the following command sequence: + \begin{verbatim} + \edef\oldeverypar{\the\everypar} + \everypar={\tryfig\oldeverypar} + \end{verbatim} + Now \verb+\tryfig+ triggers the (modified) + \verb+\output+ routine, which then does the decisions + and actions mentioned above. + + Adopting this concept when using the macros in the \LaTeX{} context, + we are faced with the following problems: + \begin{enumerate} + \item At the time \hbox{\tt FLOATFIG.STY} is read in, + the \verb+\output+ routine is still undefined; + its definition is retarded until + \verb+\begin{document}+ will be expanded; + so the redefinition of the \verb+\output+ routine has to be + done after \verb+\begin{document}+ + by the command \verb+\initfloatingfigs+ + (see section `Known Problems' below). + \item There are situations where + \LaTeX{} decides to redefine the \verb+\everypar+ token list + without saving of the former content; + this occurs for instance when expanding + a \verb+\section+ control sequence. + We overcome this by redefining \verb+\everypar+ whenever + the \verb+\floatingfigure+ environment is entered. + % + Hence to avoid problems, a Floating Figure should be requested + early enough before any sectioning control sequence + (see also subsection `Misleading collision warnings').\hfil\break + % + Furthermore, the concurrent definitions of + \verb+\everypar+ are the reason why + Floating Figures cannot move across section boundaries. + \end{enumerate} + % + \subsection{Alternating figure setting} + The problem to be solved + is to decide if a certain figure has to be set + left- or rightjustified. + This decision has to made according to + the value of the pagecount (left if even, right if odd). + That is we are dealing with the wellknown problem + to associate a certain part of input text with the number + of the page on which it will be set finally. + + As pointed out by D.E. Knuth in `The {\TeX}book' this association + is done not before \verb+\output+ routine time. + But the problem is not so hard to solve, + since in Th.~Reid's version there is already a modified + \verb+\output+ routine which decides if a certain figure will + fit on the current page. + As a by-product of this decision one easily gains + the information `odd' or `even' for the pagecount + of the current page. + So our problem reduces to the following simple decision: + \begin{verbatim} + \ifodd\count0 % + \hbox to \hsize{\hss\copy\figbox}% + \global\oddpagestrue + \else% leftsetting + \hbox to \hsize{\copy\figbox\hss}% + \global\oddpagesfalse + \fi% \ifodd\count0 + \end{verbatim} + % + \subsection{Collisions of Floating Figures} + We define a collision as a situation where: + \begin{enumerate} + \item a Floating Figure is requested before the predecessor + has been finished, + \item some sectioning is requested before a Floating Figure has been + finished. + \end{enumerate} + + While the {\tt FLOATFIG} style option cannot avoid such collisions, + it will recognize them. + For diagnostic purposes we have therefore defined + the switch \verb+\iffigprocessing+ and another count register called + \verb+\ffigcount+. + This count register is used to attach + a sequence number to each Floating Figure, + so they can be identified uniquely within collision warning messages. + These sequence numbers are not to be confused + with the figure count maintained by standard \LaTeX. + % + \section{Known Problems} + \subsection{Need of Initialization} + The present version of the style option needs to be initialized + by control sequence + {\tt\verb+\initfloatingfigs+} as mentioned above.\footnote{% + This is not needed with \LaTeXe{}. /MD} + + We hope a later version will initialize itself, + when the first request to a Floating Figure is encountered. + One problem with such an automatic initialization seems + to be, + that we are grouped down + since we are inside a \LaTeX{} environment. + Our first attempt failed + to make the respective settings \verb+\global+. + % + \subsection{Misleading collision warnings} + As mentioned above, Floating Figures do not move + across section boundaries. + If a Floating Figure is requested near a section end, + the figure will be truncated, + if it does not fit in the current section. + + If this occurs for instance with floating figure number~4, + a collision will be reported when the request for + floating figure number~5 is encountered; + so the respective warning message may be substantially retarded. + In fact, the message will tell us that there is a problem with figure~4, + but there will be no further hint. + So one has to analyze `by hand' that the problem is {\bf not} caused + by collision with figure~5 but with a section heading; + even worse: if there is no floating figure~5, one gets no warning message + at all. + + Furthermore, warning messages will be generated if a Floating Figure + ends in paragraph $n$ and the next one begins with paragraph $n+1$. + These warning messages are to be ignored; they are due to some retardation + caused by the \verb+\everypar+ mechanism. + % + \section{Conclusions} + Working on \texttt{FLOATFIG.STY} we had some unexpected problems + which were caused + by \LaTeX's somewhat unsafe assignments to the \verb+\everypar+ token list. + This is due to the fact that the use + of this token list is fundamental + to the algorithm designed by Th.~Reid. + On the other hand we did expect problems to couple + the Floating Figures with \LaTeX's figure caption adminstration, + that is to achieve a single figure caption numbering for + the standard figures and the Floating Figures and to get both types + listed by the \verb+\listoffigures+ control sequence. + % + But these problems could easily be solved + by the following local definiton within the {\tt FLOATFIG} environment: + \begin{verbatim} + \def\@captype{figure} + \end{verbatim} + Obviously this is due to the fact + that \LaTeX's caption apparatus is thoroughly parameterized. + + The \verb+FLOATFIG.STY+ file is stored in the + {\tt EARN/BITNET} listserver + in Heidelberg; \hfil\break + {\tt VM/CMS} users should enter the commands: + \begin{verbatim} + TELL LISTSERV AT DHDURZ1 GET LATEXSTY INDEX + TELL LISTSERV AT DHDURZ1 GET LATEXSTY README + TELL LISTSERV AT DHDURZ1 GET LATEXSTY FILELIST + TELL LISTSERV AT DHDURZ1 GET FLOATFIG ZOOUUE LATEXSTY + \end{verbatim} + to obtain information about how to obtain the style option file. +\subsection{Note by Mats Dahlgren} +Several features described in this document still apply to the +\LaTeXe\ \texttt{floatflt} package, whereas others do not.
