%% slashed.sty: Produce the `Feynman slashed character' notation
%% beloved of High Energy Physicists.
%%
%% This is a standard LaTeX package, but as many physicists perversely
%% use use a plain TeX rather than a format designed for document
%% production, it runs under plain as well.
%% (Just say \input slashed.sty in that case
%% rather than \usepackage{slashed}).

%% This began life as me commenting in comp.text.tex
%% on some code posted by Ben Bullock, which was originally written by
%% Mike Wade. 
%% In the ensuing newsgroup thread, P? Parker, Axel Thimm
%% and  Maurizio Loreti and others made helpful comments

    [1997/01/16 v0.01 Feynman Slashed Character Notation (DPC)]
\fi

%% Usage  \slashed{p}  \slashed{D} etc.

%% As \slashed may not put the / quite where you want, you can
%% customise it for certain arguments. After
%%
%% \declareslashed{}{/}{.1}{0}{D}
%%
%% Then any later use of \slashed{D} will have the / moved
%% to the right of centre by 0.1 of the width of `D'.
%%
%% The arguments to \declareslashed are:
%%
%% #1 A command to apply to the constructed character (for instance
%% \mathbin to re-make it into a binary relation). (It seems that
%% For the intended use as the Feynman notation it will only
%% ever be applied to `ordinary' symbols, and so #1 will be empty
%% but someone might find use for it.
%%
%% #2 The symbol to overprint. Normally / but you can try \not or |
%% (or \big/ or whatever) to get different effects.
%%
%% #3 The overprinted symbol is moved to the right by this fraction
%% of the width of the symbol #5.
%%
%% #4 The overprinted symbol is moved up by this fraction
%% of the width of the symbol #5.
%% (Note width not height, so #3 and #4 use the same units)
%%
%% #5 The symbol to which these customisations applies.

%% The basic guts of the macro just measures the specified character
%% and a / and arranges to put the centre of the / over the centre
%% of the character. (This, barring some TeX quibbles, was what the
%% orignally posted macro did.)

%% The first refinement is to call the macro via \mathpalette so
%% that it works correctly in subscripts, fractions etc.

%% Remaining problems.

%% The macro puts the middle of the slash through the
%% middle of the symbol, where `middle' is defined as the centre of the
%% bounding rectangles. However the eye doesn't necessarily work that
%% way, for instance $\sla D$ looks to have the slash too far to the
%% left to me. It is virtually impossible to do such micro positioning
%% automatically as it depends on the shape of the letters and the
%% personal judgement of the viewer, and \TeX\ does not have either of
%% these pieces of information. However one could do something like
%% the following which allows you to predefine offsets for certain
%% letters. The offsets are done relative to the size of the symbol
%% so they work OK in superscrips (or within the scope of a La\TeX\
%% size change).

%% Some characters just don't work with /. The computer modern math
%% italic f and / have about the same slope and whatever you do it
%% just looks horrible. So allow the use of an alternative character
%% (eg \not, which has a slightly different slope).
