This package contains the source for ruscap: a font for rustic capitals
---an ancient Roman calligraphic script--- created with Metafont.

The current version of ruscap is 1.0, released on 28 April 2024.

# Characters included

For the moment, only the letters of the Vergilius Vaticanus manuscript
(i.e., Roman and Greek letters) are included.
In particular, ruscap does not contain the Ramist letters J and U,
indo-arabic numerals and punctuation marks.
