+The TEXNEGAR package
+------------------------
+
+In some cursive scripts such as Persian or Arabic, kashida is used to create
+justification. In this type of justification characters are elongated rather
+than expanding spaces between words.
+
+The kashida justification in 'xepersian' has many bugs. Also it has problems
+with some fonts such as 'HM Series' available at
+'https://dma8hm1334.bitbucket.io' and 'X Series 2' available at
+'http://wiki.irmug.com/index.php/X_Series_2'. The 'xepersian-hm' package was
+the first attempt to fix these bugs in 'xepersian' which uses the xetex
+engine.
+
+This package extends the kashida justification to be used with the luatex
+engine too.
+
+The files 'texnegar-*.tex' in the directory 'texmf-dist/doc/xelatex/texnegar/'
+can be used as simple examples of the usage of the package.
+
+Please use the Bitbucket issue tracker:
+'https://bitbucket.org/dma8hm1334/texnegar/issues' to report a bug, request
+a feature or if you have a comment.
+
+I will do my best to fix all the bugs you report, but, unfortunately, time is a
+big hurdle to overcome; so, my apologies in advance for those which I cannot
+make time to fix.
