name savesym category Package shortdesc Redefine symbols where names conflict. longdesc There are a number of symbols (e.g., \Square) that are defined by longdesc multiple packages. In order to typeset all the variants in a longdesc document, we have to give the glyph a unique name. To do that, we longdesc define \savesymbol{XXX}, which renames a symbol from \XXX to longdesc \origXXX, and \restoresymbols{yyy}{XXX}, which renames \origXXX longdesc back to \XXX and defines a new command, \yyyXXX, which corresponds longdesc to the most recently loaded version of \XXX.
