    1 % This is the entry package, which is copied directly from the Dog Book (i.e.,
    2 % "The LaTeX Companion" by Goossens, Mittelbach, and Samarin.
    3 %
    4 % Four new environments are provided to improve upon the appearance of the
    5 % description environment:
    6 %   entry
    7 %   Ventry
    8 %   Lentry
    9 %   Mentry
   10 %
   11 % For the entry environment, the item text for all items is indented the same,
   12 % fixed length.  If the label is longer than this fixed length, then text is
   13 % shifted to accomodate the longer label:
   14 %       Description:  Returns from a function.  If
   15 %               issued at top-lvel, the interpreter
   16 %               simply terminates, just as if end of
   17 %               input had been reached.
   18 %       Errors: None.
   19 %       Return values: Any arguments in effect are
   20 %               passed back to the caller.
   21 %
   22 % For the Ventry environment, the item text for all items is indented the same
   23 % length, such that all text will be to the right of the longest label:
   24 %       Description:    Returns from a function.  If
   25 %                       issued at top-lvel, the interpreter
   26 %                       simply terminates, just as if end of
   27 %                       input had been reached.
   28 %       Errors:         None.
   29 %       Return values:  Any arguments in effect are
   30 %                       passed back to the caller.
   31 %
   32 % For the Lentry environment, the item text for all items is indented the same,
   33 % fixed length.  If the label is longer than this fixed length, then start the
   34 % item text on the next line:
   35 %       Description:
   36 %               Returns from a function.  If
   37 %               issued at top-lvel, the interpreter
   38 %               simply terminates, just as if end of
   39 %               input had been reached.
   40 %       Errors: None.
   41 %       Return values:
   42 %               Any arguments in effect are
   43 %               passed back to the caller.
   44 %
   45 % For the Mentry environment, the item text for all items is indented the same,
   46 % fixed length.  The label is set inside a parbox and will be hyphenated if
   47 % necessary:
   48 %       Descrip- Returns from a function.  If
   49 %       tion:    issued at top-lvel, the interpreter
