lua-widow-control
Lua-widow-control is a Plain TeX/LaTeX/ConTeXt/OpTeX package that removes widows and orphans without any user intervention. Using the power of LuaTeX, it does so without stretching any glue or shortening any pages or columns. Instead, lua-widow-control automatically lengthens a paragraph on a page or column where a widow or orphan would otherwise occur.
Please see the package manual <!-- TODO: Fix URL --> for usage details or the TUGboat or Zpravodaj articles for background information and discussion.
