+The package contains the font files and pre-processor for printing
+Sanskrit in both devanagari and transliterated roman with diacritics.
+
+Some features of the devanagari are:
+
+ o Font available in three weights and two slopes.
+
+ o The i-hooks connect to the consonant at the correct position.
+
+ o Accents for all Vedas (23 symbols).
+
+ o Accent marking in colour or grey shading.
+
+ o Choice of basic character forms, and samyoga.
+
+ o Dynamic option selection.
+
+ o Range of inter- and intra-syllable spacing.
+
+ o Vedic anusvaara and jihvaamuuliiya/upadhmaaniiya.
+
+ o Crisper characters (to look good at poster size of 150mm/6-inches).
+
+Some features of the transliterated roman:
+
+ o Transliterated output in roman script with diacritics, using the
+ same encoding scheme as for producing devanaagarii.
+
+ o Technical transliterated output using four `cases', following the
+ style of S.M.Katre in his translation of the A.s.taadhyaayii.
+
+ o Each transliteration mode has four styles: roman/italic x bold/normal.
+
+The font and supporting files are designed for use with LaTeX2e; it is
+a bitmap font using Metafont.
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+If sktbugxx.txt files exist, you may want to implement any changes or
+patches first.
+
+Run the metafont program on the eight font source files (the typical
+command would be mf "\mode=ljfour; mag=1; input skt8;" to produce
+the .tfm files. If you are using dvips, then the .pk files will be
+produced automatically on demand; if not, then you will need to
+(1) Convert the .gf files with the command gftopk skt8.600gf
+(the number `600' depends upon your printer resolution and the
+magnification) to produce skt8.pk which must be copied to the
+appropriate subdirectory.
+(2) Repeat this process with all eight fonts.
+(3) For the six skt*10.mf files the whole process needs
+to be repeated with the mag value in the mf command set
+to 1.095, 1.2, 1.44, 1.728, 2.074 and 2.488.
+
+The mf_inputs path needs to point to the files with a .mf extension;
+the tex_fonts path should point to the .tfm files; the tex_inputs
+path should point to the files skt.sty ot1skt.fd. The tex_exe
+(or other appropriate) path should point to skt.exe.
+
+To test the setup on the documentation file: first run the pre-processor
+skt sktdoc and then latex sktdoc. The files ifthen.sty, relsize.sty,
+and multicol.sty are also required. If you are not using dvips and
+pstricks then first comment out line 12 in sktdoc.skt.
+
+The files that you should have are:
+
+readme.txt This file.
+skt.sty Style file (LaTeX2e) for the skt-series fonts.
+ot1skt.fd Font descriptor file for the skt-series fonts.
+skt.c Pre-processor source program in ANSI C.
+sktdoc.skt Source file of documentation and samples.
+sktdoc.ps Print file of documentation and samples.
+sktdefs.mf Common definitions of pens, macros, etc. for skt-series fonts.
+sktchars.mf Common character source file for skt-series fonts.
+sktligs.mf Ligature codes (in fact access codes for non-printing
+ ASCII code characters) for skt-series fonts.
+skt8.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 8pt upright.
+skt9.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 9pt upright.
+skt10.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 10pt upright.
+sktb10.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 10pt upright bold.
+sktf10.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 10pt upright feint.
+skts10.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 10pt slanted.
+sktbs10.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 10pt bold slant.
+sktfs10.mf Metafont source file for skt font at 10pt feint slant.
+skt*.tfm Eight .tfm font files for above.
+sktbugxx.txt There may be a series of such files, where `xx' is a
+ two-digit number, listing reported bugs and
+ (possibly) fixes or patches.
+
+Suggestions and bug reports to:
+wikner@nacdh4.nac.ac.za
+02 January 2002.
+
+P.S.
+I shall be retiring from the world at the end of March 2002,
+and shall not be available on the Net.
