+This is myletter.upl
+This file describes akletter.cls, version 1.5
+
+Akletter replaces the older myletter.cls which I have written
+in the early days of LaTeX2e.
+
+After a short discussion with Bernd Raichle, Jan Braun and some
+of my Beta-testers, I decided to rename the class to akletter.
+
+Yes, myletter wasn't a good name from the start, but I never meant
+this for distribution, it was only a small hack to make me and a few
+friends happy.
+
+I'm sorry if I hurt someone with the changes introduced in 1.5 (some
+were already in the never released 1.4d).
+
+Compatibility:
+Akletter 1.5 is not fully compatible to myletter 1.4.
+There are some minor changes in the page-layout I didn't dare to
+build into myletter.
+I tried to clean up the way a date is set:
+Option:
+refdate - The Date will be shown in the reference-line.
+ If refdatename is defined, it will be set above the date.
+ This forces a reference-line with 5 items.
+subjectdate - The Date appear in the same line as the first line of the
+ subject. It will be rightaligned to the text.
+rightdate - The Date is shown in the rightfield, unless a
+ custom-definition of this field disables it completly.
+
+Only one option should be used, the default is subjectdate, which should
+look similar to myletter.cls.
+
+Changelog:
+1.5 First version derived from myletter.cls.
+ Compatibility-class created.
+ There is a new length \addrfieldindent that controlls the indentation
+ of the addressfield. Use it to adjust to envelops with window.
+1.5 a Introduced refdate/subjectdate/rightdate
+1.5 b Removed bugs found by Jan Braun
+1.5 c Made ready for public release
+ Added akfax.cfg
+1.5 d Synced with letter.cls 1.2u
+1.5 e Added some commands to change fonts in
+ - reference line:
+ \reffont for the stationary text
+ \reftextfont for the actual text you insert
+ - pageheader \headfont (not titlepage)
+ - pagenumber \pnumfont
+ * some suggestion to design your own layout for pages following the
+ firstpage are now in the cfg-file
+ * finally translated the manual to english (lettereng)
+1.5 f Synced with letter.cls 1.2z
+ Reset the footnote counter for every letter now.
+ Some minor correction to the cfg-files to avaoid using math
+ Only relevant if you use T1 fonts (like postscript ones)
+1.5 g Added support for letter paper (not released)
+1.5 h corrected support for letter paper, added new papersize a4offset which
+ is useful when you put the letter into a plastic binder with transparent
+ cover. Binders like that are often used for job applications in germany.
+ (Thanks to Margrehta Ri"sland for the suggestion and code samples.)
+ Added dateformat isodate 2000-05-28
+ Supplied akfaxps.cfg to show how to use Times/Courier
+1.5 i Made Layout more flexible by introducing new lengths:
+ addrfieldsep, datesep and openingsep.
+ Added option to exchange addrfield and rightfield.
