Summary description: Set leading with an explicit length
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
This package provides the \leading command to set the baselineskip explicitly. E.g., \leading{15.5pt} will use \linespread to space out the lines of text by the amount specified. v0.3 is a bug fix to get the package actually working like it's described!

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.
