 \end{verbatim}
 As of version $1.15$ (mid-2020), there is a new macro \verb|\textfrac| that may be used to construct simple fractions. For example, \verb|\textfrac[2]{7}{8}| renders as \textfrac[2]{7}{8}. (If the optional argument is not specified, you get just the fraction.) There are two options to {\tt fbb.sty} that may be used to modify the space before and after the solidus: {\tt foresolidus} and {\tt aftsolidus}, which should be specified in {\tt em} units. Their default values are {\tt .04em} and {\tt 0em} respectively.
 
+\textbf{New in version $1.16$:} A swash version of Q has been added to all faces. You may enable it globally using option {\tt swashQ} to {\tt ETbb}, or specify it locally with the macro \verb|\Qswash|, which renders as \Qswash. If you had enabled it globally, you have access to the ordinary Q with the macro \verb|\Qnoswash|.

 This package is named for its Berry form {\tt fbb}, with {\tt f} denoting free (\emph{i.e.}, public) and {\tt bb} the Berry abbreviation for Bembo. It is derived from Cardo, with significant  modifications. Where Cardo is intended primarily  for scholars of ancient languages, those features are removed from {\tt fbb} and issues of more modern concern are added. The package contains the usual four styles (regular, italic, bold, bold italic), each with small caps and figures in tabular lining, proportional lining, tabular oldstyle and proportional oldstyle, as well as superior and inferior figures. The f-ligatures have been  revised/added  so as to function better with \LaTeX, and other glyphs have been changed as necessary to suit the demands of \emph{FontForge}. A kerning table was added to Regular upright weight---a serious omission in the original.  The Bold Italic weight was created algorithmically from Italic, but the result required much intervention by human hand. Small Caps were created for all styles other than regular, which was already present in Cardo. 
 
-On screen and paper, {\tt fbb} appears close in weight to Libertine, though of larger xheight and much larger ascender height, a bit softer and slightly less plain.  The following two sentences are written in {\tt fbb} and Libertine respectively. The third example sentence is written using {\tt garamondx}, whose natural xheight is comparable to Libertine, but which should normally be scaled down to resemble more familiar Garamonds. Perhaps {\tt fbb} will be prove to be more suitable for older eyes.
