$Id: README,v 1.8 2009/08/06 16:50:04 lehman stable $ ABOUT The etoolbox package is a toolbox of programming facilities geared primarily towards LaTeX class and package authors. It provides LaTeX frontends to some of the new primitives provided by e-TeX as well as some generic tools which are not related to e-TeX but match the profile of this package. The package is work in progress. Note that previous versions of this package were released under the name elatex. LICENSE Copyright (c) 2007--2009 Philipp Lehman. This package is author- maintained.
