lead­ing – De­fine lead­ing with a length

The pack­age de­fines a com­mand \lead­ing, whose ar­gu­ment is a <length> that spec­i­fies the nom­i­nal dis­tance be­tween con­sec­u­tive base­lines of type­set text. The com­mand re­places the rather more dif­fi­cult LaTeX com­mand \line­spread{<ra­tio>}, where the lead­ing is spec­i­fied by ref­er­ence to the font size.
