+\title METATeX
+
+\section What is METATeX?
+
+METATeX is a set of plain TeX and METAFONT macros that you can use to
+define both the text and the figures in a single source file. Because
+METATeX sets up two way communication, from TeX to METAFONT and back
+from METAFONT to TeX, drawing dimensions can be controlled by TeX and
+labels can be located by METAFONT. Only standard features of TeX and
+METAFONT are used, but two runs of TeX and one of METAFONT are needed.
+
+
+\section How to use METATeX?
+
+Please read the TUGboat paper on METATeX to get an explanation. The
+paper is provided here in pdf format (mtpaper.pdf). To recreate yourself
+the paper, you will need the plain TUGboat style files (tugboat.cmn and
+tugboat.sty), in addition to the sources located in the mtpaper subdir
+(mtpaper.tex, delay.mf, diagram.tex, frame.tex and shadow.tex),.
+
+The original TUGboat paper on METATeX is:
+
+"METATeX" by Ram\'on Casares.
