ifnextok

package.

Summary description: replacing @ifnextchar so `\ [' prints `[' in new line etc. License type: lppl

Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `ifnextok' deals with the behavior of LaTeX's internal `@ifnextchar' to skip blank spaces. This sometimes has surprising or for some users really unwanted effects, especially with brackets following ` where the user does not intend to specify an optional argument, rather wants that brackets are printed. The package offers commands and options for modifying this behavior, maybe limited to certain parts of the document source.
