+The rmpage package has five files:
+
+rmpage.tex LaTeXable documenation
+rmpage.sty The package file
+rmplocal.gfc A configuration file
+rmpgen.cfg A configuration file
+readme This file
+
+The documentation's a bit of a mess - you can expect lots of overfull and
+underfull \hboxes when you LaTeX it. You might want to change the paper
+size if you don't use A4.
+
+rmplocal.gfc is configuration file with fewer options than rmpgen.cfg -
+it's much faster. See rmpage.tex for more details.
+
+And what's rmpage for?
+
+The rmpage package lets you change page layout parameters in small
+steps over a range of values using options. It can set \textwidth
+appropriately for the main fount, and ensure that the text fits inside
+the printable area of a printer.
+
+An rmpage-formatted document can be typeset identically without
+rmpage after a single cut and paste operation. Local configuration
+can set defaults: for all documents; or by class, by printer, and by
+paper size.
+
+The geometry package is better if you want to set layout parameters to
+particular measurements.
