README for tameflts.sty, 2004/04/21,
Uwe Lueck http://contact-ednotes.sty.de.vu .
The files address the problem that LaTeX floats and \marginpar
may cause misplacement of footnotes or footnote splits. (The
LaTeX code makes me also expect problems with \enlargethispage).
tameflts.sty provides
* a simple, experimental fix, maybe just as a
contribution to discussion and as a summary of
what other authors have contributed;
* many explanations -- so go on reading there.
deml3541.tex demonstrates the fix and adds a few explanations.
newbug.tex demonstrates a weakness of tameflts, or that such a
simple approach does not perfectly suffice, rather
LaTeX needs an essentially new mechanism for
handling floats indeed.
fltfltdk.tex varies deml3541.tex to test interaction with Mats
Dahlgren's package floatflt.
(The package was called `noreins.sty' earlier, in folder
`noreinserts'. Added infos on compatibility 2005/04/21.)
