shortdesc A macro to typeset paragraphs in specific shapes.
longdesc \shapepar is a macro to typeset paragraphs in a specific shape.
longdesc The size is adjusted automatically so that the entire shape is
longdesc filled with text. There may not be displayed maths or "\vadjust"
longdesc material (no "\vspace") in the argument of \shapepar. The macros
longdesc work for both LaTeX and plain TeX. For LaTeX, specify
longdesc \usepackage{shapepar}, or for Plain, \input shapepar.sty.
longdesc \shapepar works in terms of user-defined shapes, though the
longdesc package does provide some predefined shapes: so you can form any
longdesc paragraph into the form of a heart by putting
longdesc \heartpar{sometext...} inside your document. The tedium of
longdesc creating these polygon definitions may be alleviated by using the
longdesc shapepatch extension to transfig which will convert xfig output to
longdesc \shapepar polygon form. [description copied from TeX Catalogue]
