README

The IEEEtrantools.sty package provides several commands from the
IEEEtran.cls file so that they can be used under other LaTeX classes. The
user guide provided here covers only the differences in the use of the
commands from those provided by IEEEtran.cls. For complete documentation
on these commands, see the relevant sections in the IEEEtran_HOWTO manual
of the IEEEtran LaTeX class.

The IEEEtrantools.sty package provides the following IEEEtran.cls commands:

 1. \IEEEPARstart which produces large initial "drop cap" letters.

 2. The \bstctlcite command for the control entry types of IEEEtran.bst
    V1.00 and later.

 3. The \IEEEnoauxwrite command.

 4. The IEEE itemize, enumerate and description list environments.

 5. The complete IEEEeqnarray family for producing multiline equations
    as well as matrices and tables, including the IEEEeqnarray support
    commands.

 6. The \IEEEQEDhere and \IEEEQEDhereams commands to provide amsthm.sty
    \qedhere functionality to IEEEproof. \IEEEQEDhere is for simple use
    "right on the spot" such as within an IEEEeqnarry:

    \begin{IEEEproof}
       \begin{IEEEeqnarray}{rCl+x*}
        x & = & y & \nonumber\IEEEQEDhere
       \end{IEEEeqnarray}
    \end{IEEEproof}

    While \IEEEQEDhereams is like amsthm's venerable \qedhere and is
    for use within the standard equation environment:

    \begin{IEEEproof}
     \begin{equation}
       x = y \nonumber\IEEEQEDhereams\quad
     \end{equation}
    \end{IEEEproof}

    Note that the qedhere style is normally not done with IEEE-related
    work so these are undocumented features of IEEEtran.cls.

    Thanks Mark D. Butala, Hennadiy Leontyev and Stefan M. Moser for
    suggesting this feature.



IEEEtrantools.sty is not needed and should not be used with IEEEtran.cls.

*******
2015/08/26 V1.5 (V1.8b of IEEEtran.cls) changes:

 1) Revised IEEEeqnarray column specifications to work with active " 
    (or other punctuation catcode changes) as with babel under the
    german or ngerman language modes. 
    Thanks to Stefan M. Moser for reporting this problem.

 2) Fix bug with IEEEeqnarray equation number foreground color
    under the color environment of Beamer class.
    Thanks to Joschi Brauchle for reporting this problem.

 3) Added the \IEEEnoauxwrite command.
    Thanks to Sudarshan Mukherjee for suggesting this feature.

ieeetrantools – Functionality from IEEEtran for use with other classes

The package provides several commands from the IEEEtran class file so that they can be used under other classes; the package should not be used in a document that uses that parent class. The user guide only covers the ways in which usage differs from that in the parent class; thus the documentation of that class should be regarded as part of the documentation for the package.
