-To access the Concrete Math fonts in LaTeX(2e), you may wish to
-consult either the `concmath' package or the `ccfonts' package,
-both located in CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/supported.
+To use this package, you will need the following sets of fonts:
+
+* Concrete Roman (located in CTAN:fonts/concrete)
+* Concrete Math (located in CTAN:fonts/concmath)
+
+To facilitate the installation, the Concrete Math fonts are made
+available through a symbolic link, so that the contents of
+CTAN:fonts/concmath is automatically included as a subdirectory
+if you download this directory as a `.zip' or `.tar.gz' archive.
+
+
+OVERVIEW:
+
+The `concmath' distribution consists of the following files:
+
+ README - some notes on the `concmath' package
+ Makefile - Makefile to install the `concmath' package
+ concmath.dtx - documented source of the `concmath' package
+ concmath.ins - LaTeX installation script
+
+Subdirectory `fonts':
+
+ README - some notes on the Concrete Math fonts
+ Makefile - Makefile to install the `concmath' fonts
+
+Subdirectory `fonts/mf':
+
+ xcc*.mf - Metafont drivers for various sizes and shapes
-For further documentation about how the Concrete math fonts were
-derived, please read the documentation of the `concmath' package
-located in CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/supported/concmath.
+Subdirectory `fonts/tfm':
+
+ xcc*.tfm - TeX font metrics for various sizes and shapes
INSTALLATION:
+(1) Before installing the `concmath' package and typesetting the
+documentation, make sure that you have the Concrete Roman and
+Concrete Math fonts installed.
+
+If you are lucky, both sets may have already been provided as
+part of your TeX distribution. Otherwise, if you have to
+install the Concrete Math fonts yourself, proceed by changing to
+the `fonts' subdirectory and installing the fonts from there.
+
+- If you have a TDS-compatible TeX installation, you may try to
+ use the `Makefile' in the `fonts' subdirectory by calling:
+
+ cd fonts ; make install
+
+- For manual installation of the font sources and font metric
+ files, please consult the instructions in `fonts/README'.
+
+(2) After the fonts have been installed, return to this directory.
+To unpack the `concmath' package and to typeset the documentation,
+ proceed as follows:
+
- If you have a TDS-compatible TeX installation, you may try to
use the enclosed `Makefile' by calling:
- make install
+ make ; make install
+
+- For manual installation, run
+
+ latex concmath.ins
+
+ to unpack the package file `concmath.sty' and the corresponding
+ font definition files (*.fd) from the source file `concmath.dtx'.
+
+ To typeset the documentation, run
+
+ latex concmath.dtx
+
+ twice to generate `concmath.dvi'.
-- For manual installation, copy the contents of the subdirectories
- `mf' and `tfm' to TEXMF/fonts/{source,tfm}/public/concmath or
- wherever else your installation keeps .mf sources and .tfm files.
+ Finally, to install the `concmath' package, copy the files
+ `concmath.sty' and all `*.fd' to TEXMF/tex/latex/concmath or
+ wherever else your installation keeps LaTeX(2e) `.sty' files.
Happy TeXing!
