hmm.  i see no reference to modification or distribution.

the examples are all taken from the clrs book, which is a standard
textbook.  should the author not have used them?  if not, how should he
have documented his macros?

istm that either you use copyright material for your examples, or you
generate trivial snippets of algorithm, which don't really give the
"feel" you need for the package.  (pretty much every published algorithm
appears either in a journal with strict republication copyright terms,
or in a book like clrs.)
