On Sat, 25 Feb 2012 Javier Bezos submitted the
soulpos
package.
Summary description: Fancy underlining
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package combines soul with the savepos mechanism provided by the pdftex
engine, so that you can create (almost) arbitrary underlining and similar
``decorations'', including rules, leaders and even pictures (pgf, pstricks,
etc.). Unlike soul underlines, which are built by repeating small elements, here
each chunk of text to be underlined is a single element.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is located at
http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/bezos
. More information is at
http://www.ctan.org/pkg/soulpos
(if the package is new it may take a day for that information to
appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Thanks for the upload.
