+28/06/91  As a concession to those who for some reason don't have Metafont,
+the following files are now included: teng10.tfm and cirth.tfm (the font
+metric files), and {teng10,cirth}.pk{300,360} (the pk files generated
+with mode imagen (i.e. Laserwriter) at normal size and at magstep 1).
+
+
+(README changed 13/06/90; conditions relaxed)

+*** Important Note ***
+
+These files are copyright (c) 1987 J.C. Bradfield.
+They are distributed on the following conditions:
+ (a) You may make the source and generated fonts available at your site.
+ (b) You may use the generated fonts in any academic or non-commercial
+     publication. You may not charge, or allow any other user at your 
+     site to charge, for use of these fonts.
+ (c) You, or any user at your site, may make modifications for his or
+     her own use. If you distribute any modified form of these files, you
+     must include the original files clearly labelled as such.
+     If you produce modifications that seem useful, you are asked to
+     send them to me, so that they can be incorporated into the master
+     files.
+ (d) You may redistribute these files to single individuals (who are
+     asked to act on the note below), but you may *not* place these
+     files in a public archive site without my permission.
+
+The tengwar font is still under development; when I consider that a
+reasonably final version has been produced, conditions (c) and (d) 
+will no longer apply; but until then I ask you to comply.
+
+
+*** PLEASE *** If you use these fonts, let me know (at the contact
+address below). One day, I may actually get round to the necessary tidying 
+and improvement, at which time I shall want to replace all earlier versions.
+In particular, I hope that the facilities of TeX 3.0 will allow a great
+improvement in the "user interface" to the fonts.
+
+
+******************************************
+
+The only file that needs to be input is teng10.mf ; all the other
+files are called by it. Hence, on a Unix system, the following 
+should generate a tengwar font at magnification \magstep1 for
+the Apple Laserwriter:
+mf '\mode:=imagen; mag := magstep1; input teng10'
+
+If you have difficulties, contact your local Metafont guru in
+the first instance.
+
+*****************************************
+
+The cirth font is rather hastily put together, and is not properly
+organized as yet. It is therefore distributed as a single stand-alone
+file, so again all you have to do is:
+mf '\mode:=imagen; mag := magstep1; input cirth'
+
+*****************************************
+
+The file teng.tex contains the macros I use for setting tenwar
+when using TeX. I'm afraid they're not commented---tough! The general
+idea is that the ^ character is used to put a vowel over its consonant,
+so for example to print 
+ Ai! laurie lantar lassi s\'urinen
+in tengwar, I would type
+{\quenya ^Ia l^Ua^ri^@e ^la^DaR ^la^Zi s^*u^ri^nen}
+
+You'll have to note which ASCII character corresponds to which
+tengwa for yourself; I don't have a table prepared. A point to watch
+out for is that in Quenya, 'v' usually transcribes vilya, which is 
+represented by the ASCII character  w ;  v  represents the tengwa
+amba  (i.e. the encoding is basically set up for use with English).
