Some old fashioned novels have a chapter précis in the table of
contents. In Latex exists the command \chapterprecis to put the text at
the beginning of the chapter and in the able of contents. I thought, I

The example works for me too. But the command doesn’t work in my file.

Sorry. I don’t understand. If I use maxwidth (line 2 without the

Oh. Sorry. It’s to early in the morning... ;)

With your minimal example I get the message »file not found«. Does

This doesn’t happen with the stand alone. What is wrong here?

Hi Wolfgang, I forgot to tell, what happes, when I try to compile your
example. It’s just the same: There is a message in the log file:
»Module already loaded« and the next one about fancybreak is
»undefined control sequence«.
What can this mean?

Unforunately it doesn't help. Now the module is found, but I get an

I can’t figure out how to change the chapter heading. More important:
