% This package enables left subscripts and superscripts in math mode.
% These subscripts and superscripts are automatically raised for better
% fitting to the symbol they belong to. This is done in such a way that
% the left and right subscripts and superscripts are set on the same line,
% respectivly.

%
% \section{Introduction}
% 
% In mathematical equations, it is sometimes necessary to use indices
% (subscript or superscript) that are positioned at the left side of a
% symbol. 
% In tensor mathematics, for instance, some notations use a transponed
% sign at the left side of the symbol:
% \begin{eqnarray*}
% \fourIdx{\mathrm{t}}{}{}{}{\left(A_{ij}\right)} &=&
% \left(A_{ji}\right)
% \end{eqnarray*}
% 
% For symbols with a normal character height, this can be reached by
% simply put the indices without an own symbol:
% 
% \noindent
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
% ${_1^2}a_3^4$
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{minipage}
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
% ${_1^2}a_3^4$
% \end{minipage}
% 
% \noindent
% Is the symbol larger, this leads to unsatisfactory results:
% 
% \noindent
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
% ${_1^2}\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)_3^4$
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{minipage}
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
% ${_1^2}\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)_3^4$
% \end{minipage}
% 
% \noindent
% If the subscripts on the left and right side are of different height,
% the result is also unsatisfactory:
% 
% \noindent
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
% ${^{(k)}_n}A^x_{\overline x\vert}$
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{minipage}
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
% ${^{(k)}_n}A^x_{\overline x\vert}$
% \end{minipage}
% 
% \noindent
% A better output can be reached by using the package |fouridx.sty|:
% 
% \noindent
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
% $\fourIdx{2}{1}{4}{3}{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}$
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{minipage}
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
% $\fourIdx{2}{1}{4}{3}{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}$
% \end{minipage}
% 
% \noindent
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
% $\fourIdx{(k)}{n}{x}{\overline x\vert}A$
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{minipage}
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
% $\fourIdx{(k)}{n}{x}{\overline x\vert}A$
% \end{minipage}
% 
% \section{Usage of the package}
% 
% Two commands are provided by the package.
% 
% \DescribeMacro{\fourIdx}%
% The \cs{fouridx} command has the syntax
% \cs{fouridx}\marg{left superscript}\marg{left subscript}%
% \marg{right superscript}\marg{right subscript}\marg{symbol}.
% This command typesets the symbol \meta{symbol} with indices on the
% left and on the right side.
% Example:
%
% \noindent 
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.79\linewidth}
% \leavevmode\begin{verbatim}
% $\fourIdx1234{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}$
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{minipage}
% \begin{minipage}[c]{0.19\linewidth}
% $\fourIdx1234{\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)}$
% \end{minipage}
% 
% \noindent
% You may omit left or right indices by using empty arguments.
%
% The next example shows the same in the different mathematical
% styles:
% \def\asdf{\fourIdx1234{\left(\frac1b\right)}}%
% \begin{displaymath}
% \displaystyle\asdf\quad\textstyle\asdf\quad
% \scriptstyle\asdf\quad\scriptscriptstyle\asdf
% \end{displaymath}
