+Bosisio's LaTeX packages
+
+This page describes the LaTeX packages developed and mantained
+by F. Bosisio at the "Politecnico di Milano", Italy.
+
+For informations on the whole LaTeX packages see any +CTAN archive, like + +http://www.tex.ac.uk +
+ ++At now the available packages are +
+This package provides some environments and commands which I found very +useful in math-mode. +
+ ++The new math environments are used to make multi-line formulas and systems +of equations, both numbered or unnumbered. +Also the standard equation environment may be redefined so that +it has the same optional argument as the other ones (this optional argument +is simply a label for cross-referencies). +
+ ++Also a very simple way of making adjustable-size matching braces is +available. +
+ ++For more informations, see the on-line +documentation or +download the documentation file. +
+ ++The source file is mathenv.dtx, which also +deserves as an installation driver: simply run it through LaTeX in order +to get the corresponding mathenv.sty file +and also the documentation driver mathenv.drv (which you +must run throught LaTeX to get the documentation). +
+ ++This package provides some commands which I found very useful in math-mode. +
+ ++The new commands include derivatives, vectors operators, arrow-limits, +integrals and sums. +
+ ++For more informations, see the on-line +documentation or +download the documentation file. +
+ ++The source file is mathcmd.dtx, which also +deserves as an installation driver: simply run it through LaTeX in order +to get the corresponding mathcmd.sty file +and also the documentation driver mathcmd.drv (which you +must run throught LaTeX to get the documentation). +
+ ++This package provides some commands which I found very useful when +dealing with higher Mathematics that envolves the use of Hilbert and +Sobolev spaces. +
+ ++The new commands include norm, semi-norm, scalar products, crochet symbols, +besides the various Sobolev spaces. +
+ ++For more informations, see the on-line +documentation or +download the documentation file. +
+ ++The source file is sobolev.dtx, which also +deserves as an installation driver: simply run it through LaTeX in order +to get the corresponding sobolev.sty file +and also the documentation driver sobolev.drv (which you +must run throught LaTeX to get the documentation). +
+ ++This package provides some very powerful commands to deal with figures +and graphics files in LaTeX. +
+ ++It provides a new Figure environment and a +\graphfile command: the combined use of these authomatically +produce a correct centering of the graph(s) with respect to the page. +Moreover, subfigures can be handled in the same way and hard-to-discover +errors (such as a \label preceding a \caption) +are eliminated. +
+ ++For more informations, see the on-line +documentation or +download the documentation file. +
+ ++The source file is graphfig.dtx, which also +deserves as an installation driver: simply run it through LaTeX in order +to get the corresponding graphfig.sty file +and also the documentation driver graphfig.drv (which you +must run throught LaTeX to get the documentation). +
+ ++This package provides a simple way to define new commands whose goal +is to print a letter in the blackboard-bold font. +
+ ++For more informations, see the +documentation +file. +
+ ++The source file is dblfont.dtx, which also +deserves as an installation driver: simply run it through LaTeX in order +to get the corresponding dblfont.sty file +and also the documentation driver dblfont.drv (which you +must run throught LaTeX to get the documentation). +
+ ++This package provides a shorter version of the accents-making commands +of LaTeX. +They were explicitly build for Italian language, so that only the accents +that occurr in it are handled (the standard LaTeX accents commands still +remains available, though): for this reason this was not made a +standard package available throught CTAN archives. +
+ ++Nevertheless, I let it here since italian writers may find it useful, +expecially if they work with an italian keyboard (i.e. one without +a key for the backquote character). +In such a case, a suitable option is given to let LaTeX understand the +extended ASCII characters that represents accented letters: however, +if you use it remember that this may fail on some systems (e.g. when +copying the file on a UNIX machine). +
+ ++For more informations, see the +documentation +file. +
+ ++The source file is accenti.dtx, which also +deserves as an installation driver: simply run it through LaTeX in order +to get the corresponding accenti.sty file +and also the documentation driver accenti.drv (which you +must run throught LaTeX to get the documentation). +
