This is the French Cursive font, a cursive hand-writing font family in the
style of the French academic running-hand, written with Metafont.
-This package is dated February 2nd, 2004.
+This package is dated November 9, 2011.
Installation
------------
-Copy the files from the "mf" subdirectory somewhere in Metafont's search path
-and the files from the "latex" subdirectory somewhere in LaTeX's search path.
+To install frcursive, you need to copy the files in appropriate places so that
+TeX and Metafont can find them.
-On Unix, the top-level Makefile can be used to install the files. Become root
-and just type "make install" to copy the files in a place appropriate for TeX
-distributions that respect the hierarchy standard. You may change the value of
-the variables at the beginning of the Makefile if you don't want to install
-the files in "/usr/share/texmf/...".
-
-You may have to update TeX's databases by running "texhash" or "mktexlsr"
-(this is for Kpathsea-based distributions like teTeX) or a similar command.
+Installation by hand goes like this, assuming TEXMF is the base directory of
+you TeX installation (that would be /usr/share/texmf, C:\localtexmf, or
+something like that):
+- copy the files from the "latex" directory into TEXMF/tex/latex/frcursive/
+- copy the files from the "mf" directory into TEXMF/fonts/source/public/frcursive/
+To use the Adobe Type 1 versions,
+- copy the files from the "type1" directory into TEXMF/fonts/type1/public/frcursive/
+- copy the files from the "tfm" directory into TEXMF/fonts/tfm/public/frcursive/
+- copy "frcursive.map" into TEXMF/fonts/map/dvips/frcursive/
+- make sure the TEXMF/web2c/updmap.cfg contains the line
+ MixedMap frcursive.map
+You may have to update TeX's databases by running "texhash" or "mktexlsr".
Usage
-----
-The "doc" directory contains some documentation, but more would be a good
-thing. The file "latex/frcursive.dtx" contains documentation for the LaTeX
-package. The "test" directory contains some examples in plain TeX and LaTeX.
-
-Look at doc/FILES for a more descriptive list of files.
+The file "frcursive.pdf" contains the documentation of the LaTeX package.
