    package.

    Summary description: Nested delimiter groups extending over multiple array cells or lines

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The longmath package provides yet another solution to some well known 
    typesetting problems solved in a variety of ways: multi line formulas 
    with paired and nested delimiters. It tackles the problem at the Lua 
    level, which has some advantages over solutions implemented in TeX. 
    In particular, the TeX code need not be executed multiple times, and 
    there is no interference between TeX grouping and the nesting of 
    delimiter groups.

    As a byproduct, delimiters can be scaled in various ways, inner 
    delimiters come in different flavours like relational and binary 
    operators, punctuation symbols etc., and outer delimiters can be 
    selected automatically according to the nesting level. Last but not 
    least, delimiter groups can even extend across several array cells 
    or across the whole document. 

    A special environment is provided as well, which allows multi line
    expressions to be placed inside a displayed equation and make TeX 
    do the line splitting and alignment.
