+1. What is it?
+The LCD Package provides macros that display text which looks like on
+alphanumerical LCDisplays.
+
+2. Example
+Look at the file example.pdf to get an overview.
+The source can be generated by answering the question "There is an example
+file in lcd.dtx. Generate it? [y/n]" with y when running lcd.ins thru TeX.
+
+3. Generating lcd.sty
+Because character with ASCII-codes greater then 127 are used in the
+macro code, your TeX must be able to handle 8-bit ASCII to get a correct
+stylefile! But in worst case only these characters will not work.
+Making the documentation works without fixing this problem!
+With teTeX the following works properly:
+
+tex --translate-file=cp8bit lcd.ins
+
+4. Making the Documentation
+To get contents, cross references and index right, run TeX and makeindex
+as follows:
+
+latex lcd.dtx
+latex lcd.dtx
+makeindex -s gind.ist lcd.idx
+makeindex -o lcd.gls -s gglo.ist lcd.glo
+latex lcd.dtx
+
