Summary description: provides a key/value interface for generating floats
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The keyfloat package provides a key/value user interface for quickly
creating
figures with a single image each, figures with arbitrary contents, tables,
subfloats, rows of floats, and floats [H].
Key/value combinations may specify a caption and label, a width
proportional to linewidth, a fixed width and/or height, rotation,
scaling,
a tight or loose frame, an arraystretch, a continued float, additional
supplemental text, and an artist/author's name with automatic index entry.
When used with the tocdata package, the name also appears in the List of
Figures.
Floats may be placed into a row environment, and are typeset to fit
within
the given number of columns, continuing to the next row if necessary.
Nested
sub-rows may be used to generate layouts such as two small figures placed
vertically next to one larger figure.
Subfloats are supported by two environments.
