logicproof
package.
Version date: 2014/03/20
License type: lppl
Summary description: Box proofs for propositional and predicate logic
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
First public release
A common style of proof used in propositional and predicate
logic is Fitch proofs, in which each line of the proof has a
statement and a justification, and subproofs within a larger
proof have boxes around them. This package provides
environments for making such proofs and boxes. It creates
proofs in a style similar to the one used in Logic in Computer
Science by Huth and Ryan.
When I took a logic class in college, the professor lamented
that there wasn't a good way to make these box proofs in LaTeX,
and suggested that the class write up their assignments in
LaTeX without boxes, print them out, and draw the boxes in by
hand before turning them in. Unsatisfied with this approach, I
created some macros to draw these boxes in LaTeX itself. I
shared that code with the professor, who liked it enough to
share it with the rest of the class.
It's been nearly a decade since then, and I have recently
discovered that not only are people still using my old code,
its use has spread to other colleges. I had assumed that in the
intervening time, a professional logician would have made and
published a better implementation, but that doesn't seem to
have happened. This is an improved version of my old code, with
several problems fixed and a more standardized syntax.

In some fields of scholarship, a beamer does not offer good

better to distribute a handout to the audience with extracts of
