Such registers typically have many +fields and can be quite wide; they are thus a challenge to typeset in +a consistent manner. Register is similar in some aspects to the +bytefield package. Anyone doing hardware documentation using LaTeX +should examine both packages. Register requires version 2001/07/25 or +newer of the float package. + +An example Perl module and script are provided, to convert the +register specifications into structures suitable for, say, a +pre-silicon test environment. + + +Building package +---------------- + +tex register.ins <== Produces register.sty (the package proper) +latex register.dtx <== Produces register.dvi (the documentation) +latex register.dtx <== Incorporates list of registers into + register.dvi + +One can substitute pdflatex in the commands above to produce PDF +directly. + +Note that register comes with pre-built documentation. The +documentation includes some representative examples of package usage. + + + +Copyright and license +--------------------- + +Copyright (C) 2001-2018 Matthew Lovell, lovells@gmail.com + +This package may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions +of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3 of this +license or (at your option) any later version.
