Hm, there are much more than one. And I'm not sure that it is intended
for public usage. The description on CTAN is:
,----
| Example code for "LaTeX Tips und Tricks" book.

| Description
|
| This is the code for the examples in the book “LaTeX
| Tips und Tricks”, dpunkt 2000, ISBN 3-932588-37-1. The
| code includes application examples as well as packages and class
| files developed in the book.

I guess they are not supported by the author, and hence not installed as
ordinary CTAN packages, but only as examples. I don't have the book,
but if it has a didactical approach there might actually be examples
with severe limitations in them, "how to deal with that we'll see in the
next example".
Even worse, there doesn't seem to be a license statement with the files
on CTAN. Do you have the book? I can imagine that the license
statement is in the book or on the accompanying CD.
