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}
