\abstract{\noindent\begin{quote}This is a package version of the \pkg{screenplay} document class. The class version is designed to produce a properly formatted screenplay manuscript. This package version allows portions of screenplays formatted using the class methods to be included into other document classes.
\end{quote}
\section{Introduction}
This package arose out of a question asked on the StackExchange website: \href{http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/26227/}{Converting document classes into environments: is it possible?} The question asked how easy it would be convert the class functionality into an environment.  This package is the result of that discussion.
\section{Package use}
To use the package just load it like any other package:

\begin{lstlisting}
    \usepackage{screenplay-pkg}
\end{lstlisting}

\subsection{New commands}
The package implements one new environment and two formatting hooks for it.
The |screenplay| environment provides an environment to wrap a screenplay fragment.  Within this environment, you should use any of the macros defined in the \href{https://www.ctan.org/pkg/screenplay}{\pkg{screenplay}} class. Please consult its  documentation for details.
\begin{lstlisting}
    \begin{screenplay}
     
    \end{screenplay} 
\end{lstlisting}

 Two additional user commands are added to allow for user adjustment of the
 fragment font and linespacing (the \pkg{setspace} package is used for spacing unless the \pkg{memoir} class is loaded). American spellings of the centring commands have also been created. British spellings of these commands are retained:

\begin{center}

\begin{tabular}{l&gt;{\raggedright\arraybackslash}p{3.5in}}
\toprule
\textsf{Command}       &amp; \textsf{Explantion}\\
    |\screenspacing{}| &amp; sets the linespacing for screenplay fragments\\
    				   &amp; default is |\onehalfspacing|\\
				       &amp; (if \pkg{memoir} is loaded, |\OnehalfSpacing|)\\
    |\screenfont{}|    &amp; sets the font for screenplay fragments\\
    				   &amp; default is |\ttfamily|\\
   |\sccenter |	       &amp; American spellings of centring commands now possible\\
   |\centertitle|      &amp; \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}


\end{center}
\subsection{Eliminated commands}
All commands from the \pkg{screenplay} class that relate to creating the title page have been removed from the package version of the class.
\section{Troubleshooting and package dependencies}
\subsection{Package dependencies}
Note that the package uses the \pkg{setspace} package for linespacing. If you are using the \pkg{memoir} class which provides its own linespacing methods the package will use its linespacing commands instead.

\subsection{Bugs}
You are welcome to report bugs and submit feature requests, but I should warn you that this package is extremely low priority for me in terms of maintenance, as I do not use it at all.  If you are interested in taking it over, please get in touch with me.

\section{Sample document}
The following is a sample document showing how the package is used. It can be found in the documentation folder for the package.
