eqname: Names for Equations

With the little package eqname it is possible to label equations with arbitrary strings in addition to the automatic numbers provided by LaTeX. Referencing these strings is also possible.

This result can be achieved with the following input:

 \begin{eqnarray}
  1+1=2	\label{e1}\\
  1+2=3	\eqname{bingo}\label{e2}\\
  1+3=4	\label{e3}
 \end{eqnarray}
