one should note that the package documentation is in french.  there
are tables of usage (macros and symbols) in the documentation
(engpron.ps) as well as in exemple.ps within the bundle.  however, a
non-french reader will no doubt miss some of the subtleties of the
package.

anyway, i have installed the package as requested: thanks for the
upload.
