+This is the README file for the decorule package.
+
+Summary
+
+This package implements a decorative swelled rule using
+only a symbol from a font installed with all distributions of
+\TeX{}, so it works independently, without the need to install
+any additional software or fonts.
+
+This is the packaged version of the macro which was
+originally published in the 'Typographers' Inn'
+column in TUGboat (Flynn 2010).
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+To install this package, run LaTeX on the decorule.ins file.
+This will create the package file decorule.sty, which you must 
+move to a directory (folder) where LaTeX will find it. 
+
+For personal installations, that is:
+
+(Mac)              ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/decorule
+(Unix / GNU/Linux) ~/texmf/tex/latex/decorule
+(MS-Windows 95/XP) C:\texmf\tex\latex\decorule
+(Windows 7/8)      Computer\System\Users\your~name\texmf\tex\latex\decorule
+                      [replacing your-name with your account name]
+
+Create that directory (folder) if it does not exist.
+
+If you are a Windows user with MiKTeX and this is your 
+first time installing packages by hand, you must also 
+add the texmf folder to MiKTeX's list of supported
+folders (in the Roots tab of the MiKTeX Maintenance/Settings
+program), and then update the FNDB in the General tab.
+
+For shared installations (multi-user systems), identify 
+the shared local directory with the command
+
+   kpsewhich -expand-var '$TEXMFLOCAL'
+
+This will give you the texmf location within which you must
+create the tex/latex/decorule subdirectories. Do not forget
+to run the texhash or mktexlsr filename indexer program
+after installation, otherwise the files will not be findable.
+
+USAGE

+% \section{Swelled rules}
+% Swelled rules were a popular device in 19th century
+% typesetting, and were usually done as special sorts from a
+% typefounder, or in some cases fabricated from combinations of
+% decorative brass rule cut to calculated lengths.\par
+% In digital systems, they can be implemented as images or
+% as glyphs in fonts, but are not usually extensible except by
+% distortion. This example is constructed programmatically so
+% that it could be adapted to the width it is required for (that
+% feature is not implemented in this version and is left as an
+% exercise to the user).\par
+% \subsection{Other work}
+% As discussed in the original article \cite{tb97} there is an \textsf{swrule} package
+%   by Tobias Dussa \cite{dussa} which builds a
+%   geometric lozenge from very fine lines, and there is a paper
+%   by Steve Peter \cite{peter} which describes
+%   a more extensible method using \MP{} for
+%   \ConTeXt{}.\par
+% \subsection{This solution}
+% However, it is also possible to produce one using just a
+%   character from a font, combined with some looping in a macro
+%   with careful positioning and kerning. This example was
+%   constructed from the swung dash (\verb`\sim`)
+%   character in math mode, rotated and scaled to fit in an
+%   asending and then descending series.\par
+% The example is available at
+%   \url{http://latex.silmaril.ie/packages/decorule}, and
+%   any suggestions for improving and extending it are welcome.
+%   When this packaging is complete, it will be resubmitted to
+%   CTAN.\par

+% \section{Implementation}
+% The package consists of a single main macro \verb`\decorule`\DescribeMacro{\decorule}, which cycles through sizes
+% of the symbol from minimum to maximum, rotating and scaling
+% according to values preset here; and then from the maximum
+% back down to the minimum.\par
+% \subsection{Preliminary declarations}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@min}
+% Define a counter and a minimum point size to start and
+%     end with. This value is an integer, hence a counter is
+%     used.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcounter{sym@min}
+\setcounter{sym@min}{1}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@max}
+% Do the same for the maximum point size that the rule
+%     will get to in the middle.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcounter{sym@max}
+\setcounter{sym@max}{20}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@step}
+% Set the step size or the increments of the glyph in
+%     whole points.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcounter{sym@step}
+\setcounter{sym@step}{1}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@rotate}
+% Specify the amount in (whole) degrees by which we will
+%     need to rotate the symbol to make eah glyph mesh with the
+%     previous one.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcounter{sym@rotate}
+\setcounter{sym@rotate}{45}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@size}
+% Define a counter to hold the current (calculated) size
+%     as we loop through the sizes.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcounter{sym@size}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@raise}
+% Define a length to hold the amount calculated at each
+%     step to raise/lower each glyph by (because we rotate them as
+%     we go).\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\sym@raise}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@skip}
+% Define another length to hold the amount calculated to
+%     backspace between successive glyphs to make sure they
+%     touch.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\sym@skip}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\sym@symbol}
+% Lastly, define the font character to use as the glyph.
+%     For the swelled rule we use the swung dash.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand{\sym@symbol}{$\sim$}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \subsection{The main macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\decorule}
+% Now we can define the macro that does the actual
+%     work.\par
+% \changes{v0.21}{2011/06/06}{Rearranged spacing to suit the .dtx layout}
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand{\decorule}{%
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Start by setting the initial size to the minimum size
+%     declared above:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\setcounter{sym@size}{\c@sym@min}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Go through the steps up to, but not including, the
+%     maximum size:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\loop
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Raise each glyph above the baseline by half the
+%     point size that we will use:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\setlength{\sym@raise}{\c@sym@size pt}%
+    \divide\sym@raise by2
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Raise, rotate, and (in this case of
+%     \verb`\sim`) reflect the glyph in a
+%     \verb`\hbox` of its own point size, using
+%     \verb`\hss` to prevent \TeX{} squawking:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\raisebox{-\sym@raise}{%
+      \fontsize{\c@sym@size}{0}\selectfont
+      \rotatebox{\c@sym@rotate}{\reflectbox{\hbox
+          to\c@sym@size pt{\hss\sym@symbol\hss}}}}%
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Calculate the amount to backspace as \nicefrac23 of the
+%     current size:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\setlength{\sym@skip}{\c@sym@size pt}%
+    \divide\sym@skip by3
+    \multiply\sym@skip by2
+    \kern-\sym@skip
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Increment the counter and repeat:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\addtocounter{sym@size}{\c@sym@step}%
+    \ifnum\c@sym@size<\c@sym@max
+  \repeat
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Now do the same for the sole occurrence of the maximum
+%     size:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\setlength{\sym@raise}{\c@sym@max pt}%
+  \divide\sym@raise by2
+  \raisebox{-\sym@raise}{%
+    \fontsize{\c@sym@max}{0}\selectfont
+    \rotatebox{\c@sym@rotate}{\reflectbox{\hbox
+        to\c@sym@max pt{\hss\sym@symbol\hss}}}}%
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Start back down following the exact same pattern in
+%     reverse, using the current size (one step less than the
+%     maximum just used). The value has been left undisturbed
+%     from the last loop of the outward journey. This time,
+%     however, do the kerning \emph{before} the
+%     glyph.\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\loop
+    \setlength{\sym@skip}{\c@sym@size pt}%
+    \divide\sym@skip by3
+    \multiply\sym@skip by2
+    \kern-\sym@skip
+    \setlength{\sym@raise}{\c@sym@size pt}%
+    \divide\sym@raise by2
+    \raisebox{-\sym@raise}{%
+    \fontsize{\c@sym@size}{0}\selectfont
+    \rotatebox{\c@sym@rotate}{\reflectbox{\hbox
+        to\c@sym@size pt{\hss\sym@symbol\hss}}}}%
+    \addtocounter{sym@size}{-\c@sym@step}%
+    \ifnum\c@sym@size>\c@sym@min
+  \repeat
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% Finally, do the minimum size:\par
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\setlength{\sym@skip}{\c@sym@min pt}%
+  \divide\sym@skip by3
+  \multiply\sym@skip by2
+  \kern-\sym@skip
+  \setlength{\sym@raise}{\c@sym@min pt}%
+  \divide\sym@raise by2
+  \raisebox{-\sym@raise}{%
+  \fontsize{\c@sym@min}{0}\selectfont
+  \rotatebox{\c@sym@rotate}{\reflectbox{\hbox
+        to\c@sym@min pt{\hss\sym@symbol\hss}}}}%
+}
+%    \end{macrocode}
