The hanging package facilitates the typesetting of hanging paragraphs.
The package also enables typesetting with hanging punctuation, by making punctuation characters active. This facility is best suppressed (it can interfere with other packages) — there are package options for suppressing each individual punctuation character. ‘Real’ attempts at hanging punction should nowadays use the microtype package, which takes advantage of the support offered in recent versions of pdfTeX.
