+README for breakurl, version 1.10 (2005/09/23)
+
+
+INTRODUCTION
+============
+
+The breakurl is an extension to hyperref package that allows line-breakable
+\url-like links when compiling via latex + dvips + ps2pdf.
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+This package provides a command much like hyperref's \url that typesets a URL
+using a typewriter-like font. However, if the dvips driver is being used, the
+original \url doesn't allow line breaks in the middle of the created link: the
+link comes in one atomic piece. This package allows such line breaks in the
+generated links.
+
+Note that this package is intended only for those using the dvips driver.
+Users of the pdflatex driver already have this feature.
+
+
+INSTALLATION
+============
+
+a) Download the package files from CTAN or the TUG server.
+
+b) Generate the `breakurl.sty' file:
+
+ latex breakurl.ins
+
+c) Install the file `breakurl.sty' in your TDS tree:
+
+ mkdir .../texmf/tex/latex/breakurl
+ cp breakurl.sty .../texmf/tex/latex/breakurl/
+
+ where `...' is the prefix of your TDS tree.
+
+d) Update the databases if necessary, eg. for teTeX:
+
+ mktexlsr .../texmf
+
+ or for MiKTeX: Click Start menu > Programs > MiKTeX > MiKTeX Options, then
+ click in the `Refresh Now' button.
+
+
+DOCUMENTATION
+=============
+
+Please see the breakurl.pdf for a more comprehensive description of the
+package, its options, issues, etc. Or generate a breakurl.dvi version of it
+via the following command:
+
+ latex breakurl.dtx
