+shortdesc A macro to typeset paragraphs in specific shapes.
+longdesc \shapepar is a macro to typeset paragraphs in a specific shape.
+longdesc The size is adjusted automatically so that the entire shape is
+longdesc filled with text. There may not be displayed maths or "\vadjust"
+longdesc material (no "\vspace") in the argument of \shapepar. The macros
+longdesc work for both LaTeX and plain TeX. For LaTeX, specify
+longdesc \usepackage{shapepar}, or for Plain, \input shapepar.sty.
+longdesc \shapepar works in terms of user-defined shapes, though the
+longdesc package does provide some predefined shapes: so you can form any
+longdesc paragraph into the form of a heart by putting
+longdesc \heartpar{sometext...} inside your document. The tedium of
+longdesc creating these polygon definitions may be alleviated by using the
+longdesc shapepatch extension to transfig which will convert xfig output to
+longdesc \shapepar polygon form. [description copied from TeX Catalogue]
