%               Usage by several drivers SPQR spqr@uk.ac.soton.ecs
%
% v2.0 22-11-90 JLB  merged the original file with  Niel Winton's mods
%        now supports both DVI2LN3 and DVItoPS specials. This introduces 
%        one extra user-command, \device{<device>}. If he says \device{PS} 
%        the PostScript \specials (DVItoPS by James Clark) will be used, 
%        anything else gives the original LN03 \specials.
%
% v2.1 06-04-91 SPQR changed the \ifPS statements to be case
%        statements which check the value of a counter called \driver@setup, 
%        and issue specials accordingly. dvitops, dvips and LN03 are only
%        drivers supported.
% v2.2 07-03-91 JLB  Located all \specials in one place by defining
%        the use of three new macros. Supplied a user command to select 
%        the driver and added code to \document for initializing the 
%        \special-macros.
% v2.2a 08-03-91 JLB \ps@scale needs a different value for DVItoPS and DVIPS
%        so moved initialization of it inside \setup@specials
% v2.2b 08-03-91 JLB The definitions of the \connect macro needed extra
%        \space commands, because its arguments can be control sequences.
% v2.2c 08-04-91 JLB Removed use of \cb@beginSaves and \cb@saveBeginPoint
%        because - it didn't work as specified
%                - seemed unnecessary
%                - broke PostScript support because of use of \xdef
%        \cb@processActive now calls \cb@setBeginPoint instead of 
%        \cb@saveBeginPoint. Left the code and comment in for now 
%        until I'm sure this change doesn't break anything else...
% v2.2d 30-4-91  EN  changed resolution dependent parameters in dvips 
%        specials so it will work on any device using the device's resolution.
%        Additionally added \newif\ifouterbars. \outerbarstrue will put 
%        the bars to the outside of the pages.
%        Without the twoside option this will give right hand side bars.
%        The positioning of right edge changebars was off by \changebarsep, 
%        this has been corrected also.
%        I do not know if there are changes needed in other than Tom Rokicki's 
%        drivers since this is the only one I can test.
% v2.2e 13-6-91  JB  The documentation stated that the greylevel of the 
%        changebar could be modified with the command 
%        \setcounter{\changebargrey}{percentage}.
%        This was a mistake, \changebargrey was allocated using \newcount 
%        (always). Now modified to use \newcount for plain TeX and 
%        \newcounter for LaTeX.
% v2.2f 15-10-91 JB  Added support for the emTeX drivers, based on
%        information from Eberhard Mattes about version 1.4j of the dvidrv
%        program. Also started updating the documentation towards doc.sty
%        standards.
% v2.3  15-10-91 JB  Started merging this version of changebar.sty with
%        version, dated 1988, distributed with DVItoLN03. This will eventually
%        result in version 3.0, hopefully documented using doc.sty.
%        Removed vain attempt to make file compatile with plain.
% v2.4  16-10-91 JB Reduced the number of points defined to two per
%        bar, removed the need for \cb@tempcnt while removing the problem
%        with incorrect changebars across pageboundaries in PostScript
%        mode. Also \ps@scale has been removed.
% v3.0  14-nov-91 JB Completed converting the documentation to doc.sty
%        format. Also solved the problem with bars appearing on the wrong
%        side.
% 
% v3.1  02-07-93 JB Finally got round to include Erich Neuwirth's comments
%	and made a new distribution. Erich corrected the placement of the
%	bars and the conversion of the coordinates when DVIps (Rokicki)
%	is used. Also included Hal Peterson's comments about spaces
%	creeping into the output.
% 
% v3.1b 11-10-93 Spurious white space crept into footnotes because of
%	a missing %-sign. Found by Norm Walsh <walsh@cs.umass.edu>.
%       Fixe.
%
% v3.2b 30-06-95 Finally got the LaTeX2e version working; see \changes
%       entries in the .dtx file to see what changed.
%       Changebar now uses the LaTeX option mechanism; so \driver 
%       disappeared.
%       New options are leftbars and rightbars, tracon and traceoff.
%
% Known problems
%        - With PostScript a dictstack overflow seems to occur with
%          many changebars. cb@maxpoint=20 seems to help
%        - A change bar that begins or ends very near to where TeX
%          decides to break the page may lead to unexpected results. 
%          A solution has not been found yet.
