The float package ================= This package improves the interface for defining floating objects such as figures and tables in LaTeX. It adds the notion of a `float style' that governs appearance of floats. New kinds of floats may be defined using a \newfloat command analogous to \newtheorem. This style option also incorporates the functionality of David Carlisle's style option `here', giving floating environments a [H] option which means `PUT IT HERE' (as opposed to the standard [h] option which means `You may put it here if you like'). Run `float.ins' through LaTeX to produce float.sty from float.dtx. Run `float.dtx' through LaTeX to produce the documentation.
