+kerntest.cls
+============
+
+Print tables and generate mtx files that help to adjust kernings
+
+
+This class makes it easy to generate tables that show many different
+kerning pairs of an arbitrary font, usable by LaTeX.
+It shows the kerning values that are used by the the font by default.
+
+In addition, this class enables the user to alternate the kernings
+and to observe the results.
+Kerning pairs can be defined for groups of similar glyphs at once.
+Automatically, an mtx file is generated that can be loaded by
+fontinst to introduce the user-made kernings into the virtual font
+for LaTeX.
+
+The current version is really slow! Please be patient.
