I have just uploaded memoir.tar.gz to UK incoming. Please use this to
replace the current macros/latex/contrib/supported/memoir.
The distribution is under the LPPL.
From the REAME:
Memoir is a configurable class for typesetting books, reports and
articles. It encompasses the standard book and report classes and simulates the article class as well as typewritten double spaced maunscripts.
It provides a variety of predefined page, chapter and caption styles,
plus easy ways of creating new ones. There is an intuitive way of specifying page margins, etc, with an option for printing trimming marks. Documents can use 9, 10, 11, 12, 14 or 17pt as the normal font size.
Changes in version 1.2 (2002/08/10) o Incorporated all fixes from memfixb.sty that applied to version 1.1 o Minor changes to *.clo files o added 17pt class option o Boxes that break over pages and/or contain verbatim text o Several ways of dealing with verbatim text o Convenient methods for file input and output o Additional provide... commands o User=specified footnote configuration, and footnotes tha can include verbatim text o Additional optional argument to chapter and chapter* for short header texts
I have installed the files as requested: thanks for the upload.
