CTAN update: eqparbox
by CTAN Announcements 05 Sep '17

05 Sep '17

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the eqparbox package. Version number: 4.1 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Create equal-widthed parboxes Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LaTeX users sometimes need to ensure that two or more blocks of text occupy the same horizontal space on the page. To that end, the eqparbox package defines eqparbox, eqmakebox, eqframebox, and eqsavebox macros and an eqminipage environment. These work, respectively, just like the parbox, makebox, framebox, and savebox macros and the minipage environment, except that instead of specifying a width, one specifies a tag. All boxes with the same tag -- regardless of where they are in the document -- will stretch to fit the widest box that uses that tag. This simple, equal-width mechanism can be used for a variety of alignment purposes, as is evidenced by the examples in eqparbox's documentation. Version 4.1 of eqparbox corrects a few minor problems with the code and documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/eqparbox More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/eqparbox ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
