CTAN Package update: wordlike v1.1
Date: February 28, 2006 11:34:59 PM CET
On Tue, 28 Feb 2006, Juergen Fenn submitted an update to the
wordlike
package.
The package simulates typical word processor layout: narrow page margins,
Times/ Helvetica/ Courier fonts, \normalsize and \small headings, and
\sloppy typesetting. The package aims at making life easier for those
users who are discontent with LaTeX's standard layout settings because
they need a layout that resembles the usual "wordlike" output. The package
draws on several discussions in the de.comp.text.tex and comp.text.tex
newsgroups that are referred to in the manual.

Changes as compared to v1.0:
* Section headings now resemble more to MS Word's normal.dot
settings by default. If you prefer a more "reserved" approach you
may call option "basic" which supplies normalsize bold headers.
* New \title, \author, \date commands.
* Fixes to the manual.
Thanks for the upload.
