CTAN update: eqparbox

[CTAN Announcements]

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.
