All the files here can be downloaded under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License
Most of these files are distributed with self-extracting documentation. To obtain the documentation, run the .dtx file through LaTeX, for example:
latex datetime.dtx(this may need to be done two or three times to get the table of contents and cross references correct), and then copy the resulting .dvi file to wherever you keep your documentation. To obtain the class (.cls) or style (.sty) file, run the installation script (.ins) through LaTeX, for example:
latex datetime.insand copy the resulting file to somewhere where TeX will find it. Some of the packages also have LaTeX2HTML style files (.perl), which will be extracted along with the LaTeX style files, these files should go in the LaTeX2HTML styles directory.
Some of the packages are distributed in TDS (TeX Directory Structure). Download package.tds.zip (e.g. glossaries.tds.zip) and unzip into your TEXMF tree, e.g. $HOME/texmf.
Remember to refresh the TeX database.
For further information, see Installing things
on a (La)TeX system
The a4-1in package sets the paper to A4 with 1in margins all round. (There's no documentation for this package, as you really ought to use the geometry package (by Hideo Umeki) instead.)

Installation Instructions
This BibTeX style file is based on unsrt.bst with two
additional fields: abstract and file. The first
(abstract) should be fairly self-explanatory, the second
field (file) places it's value as the argument to the
\url command (defined in url.sty). I originally
wrote this BibTeX style file to help create my
publications web page,
but as I no longer use it, this package may be removed at a
later date.

Installation Instructions
The package probsoln.sty is designed for teachers or lecturers who want to create problem sheets for their students. This package was designed with specifically mathematics problems in mind, but can be used for other subjects as well. The idea is to create a file containing a large number of problems with their solutions which can be read in by LaTeX, and then select a number of problems to typeset. This means that once the database has been set up, each year you can easily create a new problem sheet that is sufficiently different from the previous year, thus preventing the temptation of current students seeking out the previous year's students, and checking out their answers. There is also an option that can be passed to the package to determine whether or not the solutions should be printed. In this way, one file can either produce the student's version or the teacher's version.
Sample files are provided for illustration.
