package lineno with package amsmath?

[Douglas G. Scofield]

Dear comp.text.tex,

I'm using LaTeX via MiKTeX. I've just started using the lineno
package, and am also using the amsmath package. I can activate line
numbers, but they don't show up in paragraphs that contain equations,
even when the only equations are introduced with \begin{equation} and
not amsmath-specific commands like \begin{align}.

I know that there's a problem with the interaction with amsmath,
because if I don't load amsmath and use just straight LaTeX comands to
make my equations, line numbers appear everywhere they're supposed to.

Has anyone else experienced this, and does anyone know of a package
that might help work around this?

Thanks for any help you can offer,

Doug Scofield

Please try loading amsmath before lineno. The environments {equation}
and {eqnarray} should work.

For other display math environments try wrapping them in a
{linenomath} environment, like

\begin{linenomath}
\begin{somedisplaymathenvironment}
xxx
\end{somedisplaymathenvironment}
\end{linenomath}

Has somebody wrapped all the AMS math environments (align etc) by
\begin{linenomath} ... \end{linenomath}? This should be simple, but my
experiences in writing style files is more than limited...

The reason for linenumber is (for me) submitting papers, but I dont want to
edit the latex file (except adding the package) to do this.

One more question: I noticed that lineno gets a hickup in multi-line math
environments (adding an extra line). Has somebody an explanation for that?

Sebastian.

ps. lineno is _really_ great, many thanks to Stephan Boettcher!
