-<h3>Unpacking LaTeX packages</h3>
-<p/>As discussed <a href="FAQ-dtx.html">elsewhere</a>, the &#8216;ordinary&#8217; way to
-distribute a LaTeX package is as a pair of files <i>package.dtx</i>
-and <i>package.ins</i>. If you&#8217;ve acquired such a pair, you simply
-process <i>package.ins</i> with LaTeX, and the files will appear,
-ready for installation.
-<p/>Other sorts of provision should ordinarily be accompanied by a
-<i>README</i> file, telling you what to do; we list a few example
-configurations.
-<p/>Sometimes, a directory comes with a bunch of <code>.dtx</code> files, but
-fewer (often only one) <code>.ins</code> files (LaTeX itself comes
-looking like this). If there is more than one <code>.ins</code> file,
-and in the absence of any instruction in the <i>README</i> file, simply
-process the <code>.ins</code> file(s) one by one.
-<p/>If you&#8217;re missing the <i>package.ins</i> altogether, you need to play
-around until something works. Some <code>.dtx</code> files are
-&#8220;self-extracting&#8221; &#8212; they do without an <code>.ins</code> file, and once
-you&#8217;ve processed the <i>package.dtx</i>, <i>package.sty</i> has
-automagically appeared. Various other oddities may appear, but the
-archivists aim to have <i>README</i> file in every package, which
-should document anything out of the ordinary with the distribution.
