plain-widow – Three output routines that extend \plainoutput
This package contains three output routines that extend \plainoutput. The first adds a reporting of problematic lines, i.e., for widow, club, and broken lines. The second prevents widow lines by changing the \vsize by one line. The third tries to avoid widow, club, and broken lines as much as possible for spreads.
