+INTRODUCTION
+============
+
+The package _ordinalpt_ provides a counter style (like \arabic, \alph
+and others) but that produces as output strings like `primeiro' (first
+in Portuguese), `segundo' (second), `terceiro' (third), etc, up to
+`mil\'esimo noningent\'esimo nonag\'esimo nono' (1999th). There are
+counter commands to output the text in UPPERCASE, Capitalized or in
+lowercase, with masculine or feminine gender.
+
+USER COMMANDS
+=============
+
+\ordptmasc{counter} --> ordinals in lowercase masculine
+\Ordptmasc{counter} --> ordinals in capitalized masculine
+\ORDPTMASC{counter} --> ordinals in uppercase masculine
+\ordptfem{counter} --> ordinals in lowercase feminine
+\Ordptfem{counter} --> ordinals in capitalized feminine
+\ORDPTFEM{counter} --> ordinals in uppercase feminine
+
+PACKAGE OPTIONS
+===============
+
+In Portuguese, both
+ `und\'ecimo' and `d\'ecimo primeiro' (for 11th)
+ `duod\'ecimo' and `d\'ecimo segundo' (for 12th)
+ `tred\'ecimo' and `d\'ecimo terceiro' (for 13th)
+ `tricent\'esimo' and `trecent\'esimo' (for 300th)
+ `sexcent\'esimo' and `seiscent\'esimo' (for 600th)
+ `noningent\'esimo' and `nongent\'esimo' (for 900th)
+are correct forms for ordinals.
+
+It is common to find the shorter forms for 11th and 12th, but a bit
+harder to find to shorter form for 13th. If this later is used, then
+all 11th up to 13th should be in shorter forms.
+
+So there are the options to set the output for resp. for 11th, 12th and 13th
+ 11-12-curtos (default) -> und\'ecimo, duod\'ecimo, d\'ecimo terceiro
+ 11-13-curtos -> und\'ecimo, duod\'ecimo, tred\'ecimo
+ 11-13-longos -> d\'ecimo primeiro, d\'ecimo segundo, d\'ecimo terceiro
+
+To choose ordinals 300th, 600th and 900th, use
+ tricentesimo (default) or trecentesimo
+ sexcentesimo (default) or seiscentesimo
+ noningentesimo (default) or nongentesimo
+
