% \begin{abstract}
%    The \Lpack{abstract} package provides control over the typesetting
% of the |abstract| environment, and especially provides for a one-column
% abstract in a two-column paper.

%
% \section{Introduction}
%
% Questions about how to have a one-column abstract in a two-column paper
% seem to pop up fairly regularly on the
% \texttt{comp.text.tex} newsgroup. While an answer based on responses
% on \texttt{ctt} is provided in the FAQ,
% the \Lpack{abstract} package provides a more author-friendly means
% of accomplishing this. Further, additional controls are provided
% for the typesetting of the |abstract| environment in general.
%
%
% This manual is typeset according to the conventions of the
% \LaTeX{} \textsc{docstrip} utility which enables the automatic
% extraction of the \LaTeX{} macro source files~\cite{GOOSSENS94}.
%
%    Section~\ref{sec:usc} describes the usage of the \Lpack{abstract} 
% package and 
% commented source code is in Section~\ref{sec:code}.
%
% \section{The \Lpack{abstract} package} \label{sec:usc}
%
%    The typeset format of the |abstract| in a \Lpack{report} or 
% \Lpack{article} class\footnote{The \texttt{abstract} environment is not 
% available for the \Lpack{book} class.} document depends on the class
% options. The formats are:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \Lopt{titlepage} class option: The abstract heading (i.e., value of 
%    |\abstractname|) is typeset centered in a bold font; the text is set in
%    the normal font and to the normal width.
% \item \Lopt{twocolumn} class option: The abstract heading is typeset like
%    an unnumbered section; the text is set in the normal font and to the
%    normal width (of a single column). 
% \item Default (neither of the above class options): The abstract heading
%    is typeset centered in a small bold font; the text is set in a small
%    font and indented like the |quotation| environment.
% \end{itemize}
% Note that the \Lopt{titlepage} option takes precedence over the 
% \Lopt{twocolumn} option.
%
%    The \Lpack{abstract} package provides handles to modify the typesetting
% of the |abstract|.
%
% \subsection{Options}
%
%    The \Lpack{abstract} package takes the following options.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \Lopt{original}. In a \Lopt{twocolumn} document the package default
%       is to use the default abstract style (i.e., centered heading
%       and small text). This option sets the
%       typeset format of the abstract to match that of a standard
%       two column document (i.e., section heading and normal sized text).
% \item \Lopt{addtotoc}. The abstract title (the value of |\abstractname|)
%       is added to the Table of Contents.
% \item \Lopt{number}. The abstract title will be typeset as a 
% numbered |\chapter|
% or as a |\section|, depending on whether the document class supports
% chapters or not.
% \item \Lopt{runin}. The abstract title is typeset as a run-in\footnote{This
% option was suggested by R.~Chandrasekhar (\texttt{chandra@ee.uwa.edu.au}).} heading.
% Note that the \Lopt{number} option is ignored if the \Lopt{runin} option
% is used.
% \end{itemize}
%
%    When the \Lopt{number} option is used with a class that provides chapters,
% the usual |\chapter| command is used for typesetting the title. If you
% do not want the word `Chapter' (or its equivalent) to appear, 
% you can use the \Lpack{anonchap}
% package to suppress this.
%
% \subsection{Commands and environments}
%
%    The usual advice about creating a one-column |abstract| in a two-column
% document is to write code like this:
% \par\begin{small}\begin{verbatim}
% \documentclass[twocolumn...]{...}
% ...
% \twocolumn[
%    \begin{@twocolumnfalse}
%      \maketitle               % need full-width title
%      \begin{abstract}
%         abstract text...
%      \end{abstract}
%    \end{@twocolumnfalse}
% ]
% ... hand make footnotes for any \thanks commands
% ...
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{small}\par
%
% \DescribeEnv{onecolabstract}
% \DescribeMacro{\saythanks}
%    With the \Lpack{abstract} package, instead you do:
% \par\begin{small}\begin{verbatim}
% \documentclass[twocolumn...]{...}
% \usepackage{abstract}
% ...
% \twocolumn[
%    \maketitle               % need full-width title
%    \begin{onecolabstract}
%      abstract text...
%    \end{onecolabstract}
% ]
% \saythanks  % typesets any \thanks commands
% ...
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{small}\par
%     If you want, you can use the |onecolabstract| environment in place
% of the |abstract| environment --- it doesn't have to be within the optional
% argument of the |\twocolumn| command. In fact, |onecolabstract| internally
% uses |abstract| for the typesetting.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\abstractnamefont}
% \DescribeMacro{\abstracttextfont}
%    These two commands can be redefined to change the fonts used for 
% typesetting the heading (defined via |\abstractname|) of the |abstract| 
% environment and the font for typesetting the text of the abstract,
% respectively. The default definitions for these are designed to mimic
% the traditional |abstract| typesetting. Different values are used
% depending on whether the document uses the \Lopt{titlepage} and/or
% \Lopt{twocolumn} options. For example, in a non-titlepage 
% one-column paper, their definitions are:
% \par\begin{small}\begin{verbatim}
% \newcommand{\abstractnamefont}{\normalfont\small\bfseries}
% \newcommand{\abstracttextfont}{\normalfont\small}
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{small}\par
%
%
% \DescribeMacro{\absleftindent}
% \DescribeMacro{\absrightindent}
% \DescribeMacro{\absparindent}
% \DescribeMacro{\absparsep}
%    The amended version of |abstract| uses a list environment for typesetting
% the text. These four lengths can be changed (via |\setlength|) to adjust
% the left and right margins, the paragraph indentation, and the vertical skip
% between paragraphs in this environment. 
% The default values depend on the document class options in
% effect.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\abslabeldelim}
% If the \Lopt{runin} option is used, the heading is typeset as a run-in heading.
% That is, it is the first piece of text on the first line of the abstract text.
% The \meta{text} as dspecified by |\abslabeldelim{|\meta{text}|}| is typeset
% immediately after the heading. By default it is defined to do nothing, but
% if you wanted, for example, the |\abstractname| to be followed by a colon and
% some extra space you could specify |\abslabeldelim{:\quad}|.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\absnamepos}
%    If the \Lopt{runin} option is not used then the heading is typeset
% in its own environment. |\absnamepos| specifies the name of the environment 
% in which the abstract
% name is typeset. It can be redefined to be one of |flushleft|, |center|,
% or |flushright| to give a left, centered or right aligned heading; or to any
% other appropriate environment which is supported by the document class or
% used packages.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\abstitleskip}
%    With the \Lopt{runin} option a space of length |\abstitleskip| is typeset
% before the heading. For example, if |\absparindent| is non-zero, then: \\
% |\setlength{\abstitleskip}{-\absparindent}| \\
%  will typeset the heading flush left.
%
% Without the \Lopt{runin} option |\abstitleskip| is aditional vertical 
% space (either positive
% or negative) that is inserted between the abstract name and the text of
% the abstract.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\appendiargdef}
%    The (internal) command |\appendiargdef{|\meta{macro}|}{|\meta{stuff}|}| 
% will append
% \meta{stuff} at the end of the current definition of \meta{macro}, where
% \meta{macro} is the name of a macro (including the backslash) which takes
% a single argument. For example the following are two equivalent definitions
% of |\mymacro|:
% \par\begin{small}\begin{verbatim}
% \newcommand{\mymacro}[1]{#1 is an artist}
% \appendiargdef{\mymacro}{ in spite of being colour blind}
% % or
% \newcommand{\mymacro}[1]{#1 is an artist in spite of being colour blind}
% \end{verbatim}
% \end{small}\par

% one argument.\footnote{Code suggestions for this were made by Michael Downes
% (\texttt{epsmjd@ams.org}) and Heiko Oberdiek 
% (\texttt{oberdiek@ruf.uni-freiburg.de}) on \texttt{ctt}.}

%    We have to keep the contents of the |\thanks| commands as normally these
% are emptied by the |\maketitle| command. I do this by extending the definition
% of the |\thanks| (from \file{ltsect.dtx}) command, 
% so that |\@bs@thanks| has a copy of the contents
% of |\@thanks|.
