Thanks for this suggestion, which on paper looks to be what I need. But as a complete newby I am stumped at how to install. I have no idea what steps 1,2,4 and 7 mean! Can you help? Or point me at an explanation? TIA. Installation: ------------- 1- execute latex on exercise.ins 2- execute latex on exercise.dtx 3- produce Index and Change History with makeindex -s gind.ist -o exercise.ind exercise.idx makeindex -s gglo.ist -o exercise.gls exercise.glo 4- and then execute latex on exercise.dtx (again !) 5- copy exercise.sty and exercise.pdf to the correct places in the texmf tree. exercise.sty could be put in $LOCALTEXMF\tex\latex\exercise 6 exercise.pdf is the documentation of the package: it could take place in $TEXMF\doc\latex\exercise 7 - run texhash or the corresponding command of your distribution
