The LaTeX remreset package

Version: 3.x, 4.x, 5.x - Scientific WorkPlace & Scientific Word

The remreset package removes a counter from the reset list controlled by a second counter. In other words, the package prevents a designated counter from being reset when LaTeX increments a second counter. For example, most reports normally reset the equation number at the beginning of each chapter. You can use this package to remove the reset so that equations are numbered sequentially throughout the report.

How to prevent a counter from being reset

1. Add the remreset package to your document.
2. From the Typeset menu, choose Preamble.
3. Click the mouse in the entry area.
4. Add the commands
   \makeatletter
   \@removefromreset{x}{y}
   \makeatother
   where x is the counter you don't want to reset (such as footnote or theorem) and y is the controlling counter, such as chapter or section.
5. Choose OK.

The package command \@removefromreset is the opposite of the standard LaTeX command \@addtoreset.

No package options are available. The package is installed in the TCITeX/TeX/LaTeX/contrib/carlisle directory.
