% 	romanneg.sty --- LaTeX style option for negative page numbers
%			 when in roman
%
% This style option should not change the appearance of a document,
% but merely change the page numbers (as defined by \count0) in the
% DVI file to be negative when roman pagenumbering is in use.

% To do this, the \@steppagecounter macro increments the absolute
% value of \count0
\def\@steppagecounter{% based on \advancepageno, TeXbook, p.362
  \ifnum\c@page<\z@ \global\advance\c@page\m@ne
  \else\global\advance\c@page\@ne \fi} % increase |c@page|

% The output routine is slightly modified so that \@steppagecounter is
% used.  We assume a) that the page counter is only modified in the
% output routine, and by \pagenumbering, and
% b) the output routine below is otherwise identical to that defined
% by LaTeX.  This should be checked before installation.
