Partl\and Robin Fairbairns\thanks{\mail{rf10@cam.ac.uk}}} \date{2001/04/09} \begin{document} \maketitle This is \texttt{parskip.sty} by H.~Partl, TU Wien, as of 19 Jan 1989. Addition (originally from Donald Arseneau) added 2001-12-13 by Robin Fairbairns. Package to be used with any document class at any size. It produces the following Paragraph Layout: \begin{quote} Zero Parindent and non-zero Parskip. The stretchable glue in \cmd{\parskip} helps \LaTeX\ in finding the best place for page breaks. \end{quote} In addition, the package adjusts the skips between list items. With package option \texttt{parfill}, the package also adjusts \cmd\parfillskip{} to impose a minimum space at the end of the last line of a paragraph. This package is no more than quick fix; the `proper' way to achieve effects as far-reaching as this is to create a new class. An example class is to be found in the \cls{ntgclass} set: \cls{artikel3.cls} The \cls{koma-script} bundle classes and the \cls{memoir} class all provide similar functionality, and their respective documentation files discuss the pros (such as they are) and cons of this approach. \end{document}
