# DESCRIPTION #
After `\usepackage{centeredline}` you can use
\centeredline{....}
to get contents centered, in a better way than with `\centerline`:
1. `\verb` or other catcode changes are allowed,
2. the centering (with respect to the surrounding text paragraph) will
be as expected if this all happens inside an item from a LaTeX list
environment,
3. and material whose natural width exceeds the linewidth will get
properly centered too.
The contents are executed in horizontal mode inside a group inside a
`\hbox`.
The macro itself maybe encountered in paragraph or in vertical mode. For
example in vertical mode
\centeredline{\rule{\dimexpr-1cm+\paperwidth}{1pt}}
\centeredline{\rule{\dimexpr-1cm+\paperwidth}{1pt}}
\centeredline{\rule{\dimexpr-1cm+\paperwidth}{1pt}}
will create horizontally centered on the page horizontal rules
vertically separated by the baseline skip and ignoring the parskip.
# HISTORY #
I have used this macro since 2013 and it has served me well.
I am making it public as is, without any re-thinking about whether it may
have some limitations which I somehow did not encounter in my personal usage.
Suggestions for improvements are welcome, and will be recorded although I do
not expect to update the package anytime soon.
