+\noindent
+This algorithm is presented and discussed in \TeX\ and TUG News, V4, \#1.
+The algorithm as presented there has several small problems, which are
+solved here.
+
+This file generates acronyms.  There are three parameters which may be
+set by the user
+%
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item To generate an acronym \\
+  \verb+\acromk{ANSA}{{\tt ANSA}}{another nasty stupid acronym}+
+  
+  The first argument is the name used in text to implement the acronym.
+  The second argument is the name printed in the text when the acronym
+  is used.  The final argument is the full, non-acronymized version.
+  
+  So, if there was an acronym \\
+  \verb+\acromake{ANSA}{{\tt ANSA}}{another nasty stupid acronym}+ \\
+  it could be used as 
+  %
+\begin{verbatim}
+\ANSA is a new approach to the use of \ANSA, where \ANSA is ...
+\end{verbatim}
+  
+  This would result in
+  %
+  \begin{quote}
+    another nasty stupid acronym ({\tt ANSA}) is a new approach to 
+    the use of {\tt ANSA}, where {\tt ANSA} is ...
+  \end{quote}
+\item To use the acronym
+  %
+\begin{verbatim}
+here \ANSA whatever {foo}lish use of acronym you wish
+\end{verbatim}
+  
+  This will generate the following:\nopagebreak
+
+  \begin{tabular}{@{}ll@{}}
+    \toprule
+    Usage number   & Resolved text                       \\
+    \midrule
+    1              & another nasty stupid acronym (ANSA) \\
+    2              & ANSA (page 2)                       \\
+    3 (and beyond) & ANSA                                \\
+    \bottomrule
+  \end{tabular}
+  \medskip
+\item The following may be set by the user:
+  %
+  \begin{description}
+  \item[ACRcnta] count of uses of acronym macro which will be in full form  
+    (default is 1)
+  \item[ACRcntb] count of uses of acronym macro which will include page of
+    acronym def (default is 1 reference, or $\mathrm{ACRcntb}-\mathrm{ACRcnta}$)
+  \item[useACRlb] should the page reference be used --- 1--yes, 0--no
+  \end{description}
+\end{enumerate}
+
+For every acronym, the macro generates the acronym macro and a macro which
+acts like a counter for acronym use.  Since counters are quite rare, it is
+not responsible to use a counter for every acronym -- rather, a macro is
+generated which fills this function.  The acronym macro is called \verb+\foo+,
+while the counter macro is called \verb+\fooz+.  Thus, I would avoid calling any
+acronym \textsf{fooz}, as this may be confoozing.
+
+The \texttt{.sty} file generates 1 counter if it is included.  For each acronym
+specified, the \texttt{.sty} file generates two macros, 1 for the acronym, and 1 for
+the count of acronym use
+
