62 % USAGE
63 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
64 %
65 % In LaTeX, a new counter called, say `ctr', is created by the command
66 % \newcounter{ctr}[within]. If the optional within argument is given
67 % the the counter `ctr' is reset to zero each time the counter `within'
68 % changes. The command \thectr typesets the value of the counter ctr.
69 % This is automatically defined by \newcounter and is initialised
70 % to typeset arabic numerals.
71 %
72 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
73 % \counterwithin
74 % \counterwithin*
75 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
76 % It is sometimes desireable to change a counter that has been defined
77 % by \newcounter{ctr} to act as though it had been defined as
78 % \newcounter{ctr}[within]. The package provides the command
79 % \counterwithin{ctr}{within} that accomplishes this. By default,
80 % it also redefines the \thectr command so that it typesets values
81 % in the style \thewithin.\arabic{ctr}. The starred version of the
82 % command suppresses the redefinition of \thectr
83 % (e.g., \counterwithin*{ctr}{within}).
84 %
85 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
86 % \counterwithout
87 % \counterwithout*
88 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
89 % Likewise, the command \counterwithout{ctr}{within} changes a
90 % counter that has been created by \newcounter{ctr}[within] to act
91 % as though it had been created by \newcounter{ctr}. By default it
92 % also redefines the \thectr command so that it just typesets an arabic
93 % numeral. The starred version of the command suppresses the redefinition
94 % of \thectr.
95 %
96 % Any number of \counterwithin{ctr}{...} and \counterwithout{ctr}{...}
97 % commands can be issued for a given counter, ctr, if you wish to toggle
98 % between the two styles. The current value of ctr is unaffected by
99 % \counterwithin and \counterwithout. If you want to change the value
100 % after one of these commands, use \setcounter{ctr}{...}, and to change
101 % the typeseting style use \renewcommand{\thectr}{...}.
