+This file describes the contents of this distribution of REVTeX 4.2,
+version 4.2c. The definitive source of information about REVTeX 4
+is the APS web page http://journals.aps.org/revtex/.
+
+User queries should be directed to revtex@aps.org.
+
+Manifest
+--------
+All files in this release are contained within a second zip file within the
+main zip file called revtex4-2-tds.zip. This contains all of the REVTeX 4.2
+files in the TeX Directory Structure (TDS) layout used with most current TeX
+distributions. Install REVTeX 4.2 by unzipping the files in the appropriate
+place (usually the texmf-local directory of your local TeX installation) and
+running texhash or the equivalent command to index the files. Please consult your
+TeX distribution's guide for installing new packages.
+
+NOTE: The only files necessary for running REVTeX 4.2 are those under
+tex/latex/revtex and bibtex/bst/revtex, but it is a good idea to install
+the entire distribution, especially the documentation.

+Not Included
+------------
+The following packages are required by REVTeX but are not
+included in this distribution. Please obtain from CTAN
+(Comprehensive TeX Archive Network), e.g. <http://www.ctan.org/>. Direct
+links to the necessary files can be found at <http://journals.aps.org/revtex/>.
+
+natbib.dtx - Version 8.31a or later; found in latex/contrib/natbib on CTAN
+natbib.ins - LaTeX this to create natbib.sty and natbib
+ documentation from natbib.dtx
+bm.dtx - Bold math style - part of (current!) standard LaTeX2e tools
+bm.sty - generated from bm.dtx by running tools.ins
+textcase.dtx - Found in latex/contrib/textcase on CTAN
+textcase.ins - LaTeX this to generate textcase.sty from textcase.dtx
+url.sty - Found in latex/contrib/misc on CTAN
+
+An up-to-date installation of AMS-LaTeX is also required for certain
+documentclass options. Version 2.0 or higher is needed. It is
+available from <http://www.ams.org/tex/>.
+
+Recommended styles and packages
+--------------------------
+With REVTeX implemented as a native LaTeX2e document class, users can
+take advantage of many of the well-supported LaTeX2e packages available.
+Here are some that are particularly useful and recommended.
+
+longtable.sty for tables running to multiple pages - part of a
+standard LaTeX2e distribution.
+
+hyperref.sty for hyperlinking - should work well with REVTeX 4.2.
+
+graphics.sty and graphicx.sty for figure inclusion - part of LaTeX2e's
+standard distribution.
+
+Credits
+-------
+David Carlisle created the first draft of REVTeX 4; Arthur Ogawa has
+supported the TeX development versions 4.0 and 4.1. Patrick Daly was so kind
+as to incorporate needed changes into natbib and custom-bib. All worked under
+commission from the APS, with the support of AIP, and was coordinated by Mark
+Doyle, APS. Version 4.2 was initially developed by Aptara Corporation under
+the guidance of Mark Doyle, APS, and Brian Goss, AIP. Development of the final
+version of 4.2 was done by Mark Doyle. The APS is the maintainer of REVTeX,
+and all bugs are our responsibility. Please e-mail feedback to revtex@aps.org.
+
+Backwards compatibility
+-----------------------
+The REVTeX 4.2 class file has been named revtex4-2.cls to distinguish it
+from its predecessors. Files prepared under REVTeX 4.0 or 4.1 may need minor
+changes to process under 4.2 and the output may be formatted differently.
+
+LaTeX2e requirements
+--------------------
+REVTeX 4 requires:
+LaTeX2e [1996/06/01],
+natbib [2009/11/07]
