Rochester + +The warpcol package defines a tabular column type for formatting +numerical columns in LaTeX. The column type enables numerical items to +be right justified relative to each other, while centred beneath the +column label. In addition, macros are provided to enable variations on +this column type to be defined. + +Usage of the package is superficially similar to that of dcolumn; +however, the alignment scheme is different, and the packages have +different, though overlapping, applications. The key differences are: +(1) dcolumn is based on decimal alignment, and can align numbers with +varying numbers of decimal places; and (2) warpcol handles items that +are not simple numbers (e.g. '< 0.001' and '$100,000'). + +The files associated with the package are: + +warpcol.dtx Doc-source file containing the package and documentation +warpcol.sty Package file, pre-unpacked from the above +warpcol.ins Installation batch file for unpacking the package + +The documentation for the package can be generated by typing: + +latex warpcol.dtx + +Wayne A.
