Directory macros/plain/contrib/plain-widow

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.

One can switch between the output routines. And one can add manual
\vsize changes to the output routine that only reports problematic
lines.
