+This script performs "on the fly" downloads of missing packages on compilation,
+a feature that many missed from MiKTeX.  To use it, replace your
+lualatex/pdflatex/etc command with a call to this script, e.g.
+
+texliveonfly.py file.tex
+
+[Current default options are --engine=lualatex and
+--arguments="-synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode"; these can be changed.]
+
+The script was written on Ubuntu and should (hopefully) be compatible with
+linux distributions.  Because it is strongly dependent on tlmgr, it can
+only be used with TeX Live 2010 or later.
