 \subsection{The Idea}
 Since \CF was published August 2010, there is a flexible solution for creating organic structures. With \CF and `mhchem' one is able to create nearly all structural and molecular formulars that a chemist needs. There is one thing, though, in which `ochem' still beats \CF: creating reaction mechanisms. This is where \mC comes in.
 
 \mC loads the packages
 \begin{itemize}
- \item \CF\footnote{by Christian Tellechea, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/generic/chemfig/}},
- \item `mhchem'\footnote{by Martin Hensel, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/mhchem/}} in version 3, when ist exists,
- \item `chemexec'\footnote{by me, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/chemexec/}}, when it exists, and
- \item `chemcompounds'\footnote{by Stephan Schenk, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/chemcompounds/}}, when ist exists.
+ \item \CF\footnote{by Christian Tellechea, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/generic/chemfig/}}\index{ChemFig@\CF},
+ \item `mhchem'\footnote{by Martin Hensel, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/mhchem/}}\index{mhchem} in version 3, when ist exists,
+ \item `chemexec'\footnote{by me, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/chemexec/}}\index{chemexec}, when it exists, and
+ \item `chemcompounds'\footnote{by Stephan Schenk, \url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/chemcompounds/}}\index{chemcompounds}, when ist exists.
 \end{itemize}
 How these packages work, you can read in their documentations. Commands provided by these packages are for example
 \begin{itemize}
- \item \lstinline=\ce{}= (mhchem)
- \item \lstinline=\ox{}{}=, \lstinline=\om[]=, \lstinline=\op[]=, \lstinline=\Hyd=, \lstinline=\Hpl= (chemexec)
- \item \lstinline=\chemfig[][]{}=, \lstinline=\chemrel[]{}=, \lstinline=\chemsign[]{}=, \lstinline=\lewis{}= (\CF)
- \item \lstinline=\declarecompound[]{}=, \lstinline=\compound{}= (chemcompounds).
+ \item \lstinline=\ce{}= (mhchem)\index{mhchem}

+ \item \lstinline=\declarecompound[]{}=, \lstinline=\compound{}= (chemcompounds)\index{chemcompounds}.
 \end{itemize}
 Some of these commands are used in the examples of this documentation \textit{without being mentioned explicitly}.

You can do loads of stuff with \CF already. And \TikZ provides all the possibilities one could ask for. But since I'm a lazy guy I wrote several macros providing \TikZ commands, I often used. They got so many and got more and more possibilities to adjust, that I bundled them into this package. Of course you can still use \TikZ and stay more flexible with it, if you like.

  \setbondshape{<base length>}{<dash thickness>}{<dash spacing>}
  \setatomsize{<font size>}
-\end{Verbatim}

 With these commands, the parameters are changed \emph{for all following} \mC environments. If you leave the arguments empty, default values are restored. Default for  \lstinline=\setatomsize= is  \lstinline=\small=.
 \begin{Example}

 \section{Advanced Usage, Usage with \TikZ}
-Most of the commands allow alignment with \TikZ code. Using \TikZ code you have much more possibilities aligning reactands relatively to one another. If you are familiar with \TikZ you have even more flexibility, of course (see \ref{ssec:tikzsynthese}).
+The biggest problem with \mC usually is the correct positioning of reactants and arrows. \ref{ssec:ausrichtungsfrage} looks a little bit into this topic.
+
+Some of the commands can be given \TikZ code as third optional argument. More precisely you can use the same \TikZ keys there as you would with a \lstinline+\node+ inside a \lstinline+tikzpicture+. If a node is placed with \lstinline+\node[<tikz>](<placement>){<anything>};+, then \lstinline+<tikz>+ is about the same in \eg \lstinline+\reactant[,,<tikz>]{}+\index{reactant!tikz}. With this you can customize your scheme in many ways.

+\subsection{merge}\label{ssec:merge}\index{merge|(}\index{commands!merge}
+\NEU%
+The \lstinline+merge+ command is used to merge different reaction chains. In order to do that, the reactants that are to be merged must have an anchor name (\lstinline+\reactant[,<anchor>]{}+, similar with branches, see \ref{ssec:reactant} and \ref{ssec:branch}) and be placed \emph{before} \lstinline+\merge+.
+\begin{lstlisting}
+ \merge[<label>,<direction>,<length>]{<target>}{<start a>}{<start b>}
+\end{lstlisting}
+\lstinline+\merge+ has three optional and three mandatory arguments. The latter are the anchor names of the reactants, that are to be merged.
+\begin{Example}
+ \begin{rxn}
+  \branch[,first]{
+   \reactant[,start_a]{\chemfig{-[:30]-[:-30]OH}}
+   \reactant[,start_b,xshift=9em]{\chemfig{-[:30]=[:-30]O}}
+  }
+  \branch[below=of first,target,yshift=-5em]{
+   \reactant{\chemfig{-[:30]-[:-30]O-[:30](-[2]OH)-[:-30]}}
+  }
+  \merge[\ce{[\Hyd]}]{target}{start_a}{start_b}
+ \end{rxn}
+\end{Example}
+The default \lstinline+<direction>+ is \lstinline+below+, other possible values are \lstinline+right+, \lstinline+left+ or \lstinline+above+. With \lstinline+<length>+ the length of the arrow from the point of merging to the tip can be changed. The default length is \SI{3}{\emlength}. The default length can be changed with \lstinline+\setmergelength+\index{setmergelength} or \lstinline+\mCsetup+\index{mCsetup}.
+\begin{Example}
+ \begin{rxn}
+  \reactant[,start_a]{\chemfig{-[:30]-[:-30]OH}}
+  \branch[below=of start_a,start_b,yshift=-9em]{
+   \reactant{\chemfig{-[:30]=[:-30]O}}
+  }
+  \branch[right=of start_a,target,xshift=7em,yshift=-6em]{
+   \reactant{\chemfig{-[:30]-[:-30]O-[:30](-[2]OH)-[:-30]}}
+  }
+  \merge[\ce{[\Hyd]},right,5em]{target}{start_a}{start_b}
+ \end{rxn}
+\end{Example}
+Since you have to place the reactants first, it might be useful to know a little bit about involved lengths. There are three values, which influence the needed distance between start points and the target reactant. There is the {\color{green}depth} of the involved reactants, the distance of the "reaction nodes" {\color{red}rcndist} (see \ref{ssec:setrcndist}) and the length of the \lstinline+\merge+ arrow {\color{blue}mergelength} (also see \ref{ssec:setmergelength}).
+\begin{rxn}
+ \node[above](a) at (0,0){A};
+ \node[above](b) at (10em,0){B};
+ \node[below](c) at (5em,-6em){C};
+ \merge{c}{a}{b}
+ \draw (-8.5em,1em) -- (-8.5em,-9em);
+ \foreach \x in {-1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{
+   \draw (-8.5em,-\x em) -- (-8.7em,-\x em);
+ }
+ \draw[<->,red] (10em,0)--node[midway,right,xshift=.2em]{rcndist (default: 1em)}(10em,-1em);
+ \draw[<->,red] (0,0)--(0,-1em);
+ \draw[<->,red] (5em,-5em)--(5em,-6em);
+ \draw[<->,blue] (6em,-2em) --node[midway,right,xshift=.2em]{mergelength (default: 3em)} (6em,-5em);
+ \draw[<->,green] ($(a.base)+(-.5em,0)$)--node[midway,left,xshift=-.2em]{reactant depth}++(0,.5em);

+\paragraph{Placement}\index{rxnscheme!customize!placement}
 Usually floating environments have an optional argument for their placement. \lstinline=rxnscheme='s default placement is \lstinline=H= which means, it is placed \emph{exactly here}. If you want to change it into \lstinline=htp= or something, you can use
-\begin{Verbatim}
+\begin{lstlisting}
  \floatplacement{rxnfloat}{<placement>}
-\end{Verbatim}
+\end{lstlisting}
 It's easier, though, loading \mC with the `placement' option:
-\begin{Verbatim}
+\begin{lstlisting}
  \usepackage[placement=<placement>]{mychemistry}
-\end{Verbatim}
-This will change the default placement behaviour from \lstinline=H= to \lstinline=<placement>=. You can also change the placement behaviour of just one \lstinline=rxnscheme= environment by using the placement key:
-\begin{Verbatim}
- \begin{rxnscheme}[placement=<placement>]{<caption>}
+\end{lstlisting}
+This will change the default placement behaviour from \lstinline=H= to \lstinline=<placement>=. You can also change the placement behaviour of just one \lstinline+rxnscheme+ environment by using the placement option:

 \section{Epilogue}
-\mC is still very new. This means there are probably a number of bugs I haven't discovered yet. There also might be missing one or two features, that would be useful. Since I only can test an work on \mC in my spare time, I'd be very glad about \emph{every} kind of feedback. If you like \mC, why don't you help me improve it by telling me your experiences?
