+This directory contains Dviljk, a modified version of
+Gustaf Neumann's dvi2xx, a DVI-to-PCL translator.
+
+This program does not work with DeskJet printers; instead, try
+CTAN:/dviware/dvidjc or Nelson Beebe's drivers in CTAN:/dviware/beebe.
+(See ../MIRROR for a list of CTAN hosts.)
+
+See `INSTALL' for installation instructions.
+See `NEWS' for major changes by release, `ChangeLog` for all changes.
+See `README.fonts' for information on using the LaserJet 4 builtin fonts.
+See `../kpathsea/BUGS' for details on reporting bugs and common problems.
+
+Aside from configuration, this differs from the original primarily in
+that it uses the same code for path searching as TeX and my other
+distributions. I haven't tested the non-Unix support present in the
+original, or support for any device but the LJ4. However, I'm told that
+dviljk does work on MS-DOS/MS-Windows when compiled with either DJGPP
+port of GNU C or with Microsoft Visual C compilers. At least in the
+DJGPP port, the LJ and LJ2P devices were reported to work.
+
+dviljk is free software; Gustaf's original files are "open source",
+according to http://nm.wu-wien.ac.at/nm/en/neumann. The files I wrote
+are covered by the GNU General Public License -- see the files COPYING*.
+
+You can get the original dvi2xx from
+ftp://ftp.wu-wien.ac.at/pub/src/Typeset/dvi2xx.

+CTAN SOURCE TREE INFORMATION
+
+
+This CTAN source tree has been automatically extracted from the texk
+Subversion repository at svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk/Build/source/texk/.
+
+It is not possible to use the supplied configure script.
+In fact, if you call it; you will be told as such.
+
+This source can only be compiled in a texk build environment.
+You will need to download the whole environment, please refer to
+http://www.tug.org/texlive/svn/.
+
+It all boils down to a Subversion checkout of
+svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk/Build/source
+This will be the source tree that you can use for compilation. The
+CTAN directory is there for archival and informational purpose.
+
+For your convenience, the original configure script from the texk
+source tree is available in this directory as configure.texk.
+
+For the CTAN team,
