======================================================================
This package provides the \DeclareRobustActChar macro the use of which
is similar to the one of \DeclareRobustCommand but which protects the
active character when it appears in a moving argument, see ltdefns.dtx
in /latex/base.
It provides also the \ReDeclareRobActChar macro which is to
\DeclareRobustActChar as \renewcommand is to \newcommand.
======================================================================
If you're running a *nix, you can use the provided Makefile. For help
type 'make help'.
You can obtain the doc (complete with commented code if
\OnlyDescription [line 54] is commented out) with drac-en.dtx.
Just latex (or pdflatex) it once then
makeindex -s gind drac-en
makeindex -s gglo -o drac-en.gls drac-en.glo
then latex (or pdflatex) it once again.
Or use the provided Makefile and type 'make docen'.
Happy TeXing and all that.

drac – Declare active character substitution, robustly
The package provides macros \DeclareRobustActChar and \ReDeclareRobActChar. One uses \DeclareRobustActChar in the same way one would use \DeclareRobustCommand; the macro \protects the active character when it appears in a moving argument.
\ReDeclareRobActChar redefines an active character previously defined with \DeclareRobustActChar, in the same way that \renewcommand works for ordinary commands.
