multicolrule - Decorative rules between columns
=================================================

The multicolrule package lets you customize the appearance of
the vertical rule that appears between columns of multicolumn
text. It is primarily intended to work with the multicol
package, hence its name, but it also supports the twocolumn
option and \twocolumn macro provided by the standard classes
(and related classes such as the KOMA-Script equivalents).

Installation
------------

This package is provided as a .dtx file. To install it and
compile the documentation at the same time, simply process the
.dtx file with LaTeX (for example, `pdflatex multicolrule.dtx`).
To extract the package only, process the file with TeX
(`tex multicolrule.dtx`). If you have trouble compiling the
index for the documentation, note that the documentation uses
the l3doc class to index the code, and so the makeindex command
should be the following:

`makeindex -s gind.ist -o multicolrule.ind multicolrule.idx`

This package requires LaTeX3 support to run, and compiling the
documentation requires a variety of other packages, all of which
are available on CTAN and any modern installation (TeX Live,
MiKTeX, etc.).
\RequirePackage{expl3}
\RequirePackage{xparse}
