-BXnewfont Package
-=================
-
-LaTeX: Enhanced `\newfont` command
-
-This package provides a new command `\newfontx`. It is similar to
-the old (and deprecated) command `\newfont` in function, but is more
-compatible with NFSS. In particular, one can safely change font size
-after invoking a font command defined by `\newfontx`. The new command
-will be useful to users who know much of the old '\newfont` command
-but are unfamiliar with the detail of NFSS.
-
-### System requirement
-
- * TeX format: LaTeX.
- * TeX engine: Anything.
- * Dependent packages: None.
-
-### Installation
-
- - `*.sty` → $TEXMF/tex/latex/BXnewfont
-
-### License
-
-This package is distributed under the MIT License.

-The bxnewfont Package
----------------------
-
-### Package Loading
-
- \usepackage[<option>]{bxdvidriver}
-
-Available options:
-
- * `newfont`: Makes `\newfont` an alias of `newfontx`.
-
-### Usage
-
- * `\newfontx\CMD[<encoding>]{<tfm-name><at-clause>}`: Defines `\CMD`
- to be a “font command” (pseudo-fontdef token). Here the format
- of the mandatory argument is exactly same as that of `\newfont`
- (`<at-clause>` can be empty). The optional argument specifies the
- NFSS encoding name (such as `T1`) of the TFM to be used, and
- defaults to the current font encoding. (If you don’t know what
- it means, then you probably need not care about this argument.)
-
- When the defined `\CMD` command is invoked, the current font will
- changes to what is specified by the argument, just as the original
- `\newfont`. But unlike `\newfont`, it does not break consistency
- of LaTeX NFSS. Specifically, NFSS is set at the following state:
-
- - The family is what was auto-generated for `\CMD`.
- - The series is `m` and the shape is `n`.
- - The encoding and size are what was specified by the arguments
- of `\newfontx`.
-
- It means that further use of “LaTeX’s font commands” will
- probably result in what you will expect. In particular, font size
- can be safely changed. The use of `\itshape` has no effect ---
- of course, because LaTeX does not know the TFM name of the italic
- counterpart --- and no unfavorable effect either.
-
- * `\newfontx*\CMD[<encoding>]{<tfm-name>}`: Same as the `\newfontx`,
- except that “font commands” defined by `\newfontx*` does not
- fix font size (note the absence of `<at-clause>`). Namely, invoking
- `\CMD` does not change the current font size. This variant surely
- diverges from the original `\newfont`, but will be more useful.
-
-Revision History
-----------------
-
- * Version 0.2b ‹2017/05/01›
- - Change the rule for automatic quoting. Namely, names which are
- judged as illegal by mktextfm should be quoted.
- * Version 0.2a ‹2016/08/08›
- - Now “TFM” names can contain spaces with suitable quoting.
- This enables one to specify OpenType fonts on Unicode engines.
- - An experimental command `\newfontjascale` is added.
- * Version 0.2 ‹2016/03/27›
- - The first public version.
