+
+BRIEF DESCRIPTION
+
+The AWK program, EPSTOMF.AWK, converts EPS files, conforming the convention
+of files produced using the MFTOEPS package, into METAFONT lingo (see the
+batch file E2M.BAT in the subdirectory ../PROGS). Primarily, it is meant as
+a supplementary link between PostScript and METAFONT, collaborating with
+the PostScript-to-EPS converter, PS_CONV, which can be found in
+the subdirectory ../../PS/PS_CONV.
+
+For the details of conversion see the EPSTOMF.AWK file.
+
+Additionally, there are some files for a neat formatting of the resulting
+METAFONT files in the subdirectory E2MFORM. This is our idiosyncrasy; if you
+prefer other formatting (e.g., verbatim)---feel free to delete all the stuff.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+All copyrights, copylefts, copyups, copydowns, or whatever you wish to call
+them, concerning the EPSTOMF.AWK are essentially of the public domain
+character. In particular, you are entitled to do with the file whatever you
+wish. If you alter a file, however, please remove the line containing the
+comment:
+
+ `This file belongs to the EPSTOMF package.'
+
+in order to avoid mess.
+
+The files in the directory E2MFORM are not the part of the EPSTOMF
+distribution, however, they belong to public domain (as far as we know),
+therefore we assumed that it is fair to include them here.
