packages.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For ledpar, fix a bug who made impossible to use autopar on the right side.
For ledmac and pstart, propose to insert a number on every pstart command. Use
umberpstarttrue to enable it and
umberpstartfalse to disable it.
To change the apparence of the numbering, redefine the command hepstart,
hepstartL and hepstartR.
To reset the numbering, made :
setcounter{pstart}{1}
and if you use ledpar
setcounter{pstartL}{1}
setcounter{pstartR}{1}

package.
Summary description: New package to store multiple used content only once

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package provides store boxes which have the same user interface like
normal LaTeX save boxes, but only store the content once in the output file
even if it is used several times.

If the stored content is not used in the document after all it is not written to
the PDF (at least the pdftex manual says so).
For any other TeX and output format the package simply falls back to use the
normal savebox equivalents.
