+\maketitle
+
+ This provides a short test of the characters in the \thisfont{} fonts
+--- the \verb|proto| font family.
+
+ Following the declaration \verb?\protofamily? the \thisfont{} font
+is used. For just a few characters the \verb?\textproto{arg}? macro will
+typeset \verb?arg? in the \thisfont{} font.
+
+\begin{center}
+The \thisfont{} font, and alternate glyphs, in the huge size \\
+{\protofamily\huge \abc\\ \ABC\\}
+\end{center}
+
+\begin{center}
+The font, and alternates, in its normal size followed by the Computer Modern Roman
+for comparison \\
+\textproto{\abc} \\ \textproto{\ABC} \\
+\abc \\ \ABC
+\end{center}
+
+ The macro \verb?\translitproto{<cmds>}? will give a transliteration
+of the commands in its argument. For example,
+ \thisfont, as near as possible, in \thisfont{} is: \textproto{proto Semitig},
+which transliterates as \translitproto{\Ap\Ar\Ao\At\Ao{} \Asv\Ae\Am\At\Ag}.
