Jean,

Thanks for the reply. The package longdiv doesn't do decimals, as far  
as I can tell, and decimals are what I need.

What I need is pretty much the options you show in your package, but  
in this format:

   xlop don't display "american" long division... xlop v0.3 will do it
but I'm late in coding (too many occupations). I hope xlop v0.3 for july
but it's just a hope :-)
   The only one package I know about long division is the well named
longdiv (longdiv.tex so \input longiv rather than \usepackage{longdiv}).
But this package deal only with integers.

   I have some american (and english and indian and canadian and irish)
contacts. It seems that long division have several variations (about
rules, decimal dot, etc.)

   Here it is an example of long division:

\documentclass{minimal}
\input longdiv

\begin{document}
\longdiv{314159}{2718}
\end{document}
