new ctan package: prodint
Date: March 30, 2011 11:27:46 AM CEST
Richard Gill encouraged me to install on CTAN a copy of his and J C
Loredo's prodint font. I have now done so.
from the catalogue entry i have just written:
Product integrals are to products, as integrals are to sums. They
have been around for more than a hundred years, they have not
become part of the standard toolbox, possibly because no-one
invented the right mathematical symbol for them. The
authors remedied that situation by proposing the symbol and
providing this font.
Users may view the package's catalogue entry at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/prodint.html
or browse the package's directory at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/fonts/prodint/
The catalogue entry will appear for the first time when my processing
runs overnight tonight.

prodint – A font that provides the product integral symbol
Product integrals are to products, as integrals are to sums. They have been around for more than a hundred years, they have not become part of the standard mathematician’s toolbox, possibly because no-one invented the right mathematical symbol for them. The authors have remedied that situation by proposing the symbol and providing this font.
