+dvitty is intended for previewing dvi-files on text-only devices
+(terminals and lineprinters). The output is not very pretty many
+times, but it still saves quite a lot of work, especially if you
+have a little ways to walk to a laserprinter, for example.
+
+The program was originally written in Hedrick-Pascal, running on
+TOPS-20, and was later ported to UNIX (BSD, Berkeley-pascal).
+
+It is not very smart in all situations, but still serves it pur-
+pose fairly well.
+
+For information on how to use see the man-page.
+
+Before compiling and installing inspect the "compile-time cust-
+omization constants" and change them to suit your site.
+These constants configure default pager and a little more.
+
+Please report complaints, suggestions, bugs and/or fixes to:
