the catalogue entry will not appear on the web until some time tonight.
NOTE: this package was submitted some days ago. while there is no doubt
of its quality, the ctan team were uneasy about its name; we therefore
delayed installation while we tried to think of an alternative ... and
we failed, so i have now installed.
