+contour.sty -- printing a contour for a text
+
+This package generates a colored contour around a given text in order
+to enable printing text over a background without the need of a
+color box around the text.
+By default this is done by placing copies of the text around the text
+itself and can be switched to use real outlines if supported by the
+backend driver.
+
+
+Automatic installation:
+=======================
+Run the Makefile by using
+ make all
+or even
+ make install
+
+
+Manual installation:
+====================
+1. Run
+ latex contour.ins
+2. Copy contour.sty to a directory of the LaTeX search path.
+3. Documentation is available in contour.pdf or by running
+ pdflatex contour.dtx
+ pdflatex contour.dtx
+ makeindex -s gind.ist contour
+ makeindex -s gglo.ist -o contour.gls contour.glo
+ pdflatex contour.dtx
