+BXnewfont Package
+=================
+
+LaTeX: Enhanced `\newfont` command
+
+This package provides a new command `\newfontx`. It is similar to
+the old (and deprecated) command `\newfont` in function, but is more
+compatible with NFSS. In particular, one can safely change font size
+after invoking a font command defined by `\newfontx`. The new command
+will be useful to users who know much of the old '\newfont` command
+but are unfamiliar with the detail of NFSS.
+
+### System requirement
+
+  * TeX format: LaTeX.
+  * TeX engine: Anything.
+  * Dependent packages: None.
+
+### Installation
+
+  - `*.sty` → $TEXMF/tex/latex/BXnewfont
+
+### License
+

+
+The bxnewfont Package
+---------------------
+
+### Package Loading
+
+    \usepackage[<option>]{bxdvidriver}
+
+Available options:
+
+  * `newfont`: Makes `\newfont` an alias of `newfontx`.
+
+### Usage
+
+  * `\newfontx\CMD[<encoding>]{<tfm-name><at-clause>}`: Defines `\CMD`
+    to be a “font command” (pseudo-fontdef token). Here the format
+    of the mandatory argument is exactly same as that of `\newfont`
+    (`<at-clause>` can be empty). The optional argument specifies the
+    NFSS encoding name (such as `T1`) of the TFM to be used, and
+    defaults to the current font encoding. (If you don’t know what
+    it means, then you probably need not care about this argument.)
+
+    When the defined `\CMD` command is invoked, the current font will
+    changes to what is specified by the argument, just as the original
+    `\newfont`. But unlike `\newfont`, it does not break consistency
+    of LaTeX NFSS. Specifically, NFSS is set at the following state:
+
+      - The family is what was auto-generated for `\CMD`.
+      - The series is `m` and the shape is `n`.
+      - The encoding and size are what was specified by the arguments
+        of `\newfontx`.
+
+    It means that further use of “LaTeX’s font commands” will
+    probably result in what you will expect. In particular, font size
+    can be safely changed. The use of `\itshape` has no effect ---
+    of course, because LaTeX does not know the TFM name of the italic
+    counterpart --- and no unfavorable effect either.
+
+  * `\newfontx*\CMD[<encoding>]{<tfm-name>}`: Same as the `\newfontx`,
+    except that “font commands” defined by `\newfontx*` does not
+    fix font size (note the absence of `<at-clause>`). Namely, invoking
+    `\CMD` does not change the current font size. This variant surely
+    diverges from the original `\newfont`, but will be more useful.
