+PSTricks configuration for XeTeX (with the xdvipdfmx driver)
+============================================================
+
+This package provides a configuration file to support the use of PSTricks
+with the xdvipdfmx output driver, required by the XeTeX engine.
+
+The macro file `xetex-pstricks.con', as well as the driver enhancements in
+xdvipdfmx to support PSTricks output, were written by Miyata Shigeru and
+initially released on the XeTeX mailing list in March 2007; see
+
+ http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/XeTeX
+
+Any problems, suggestions, or questions are best discussed there.
+
+
+To allow the xetex and xelatex formats to automatically find the correct
+configuration, without interfering with other programs (e.g, LaTeX + dvips),
+two files named `pstricks.con' are installed as:
+ tex/xetex/xetex-pstricks/pstricks.con
+ tex/xelatex/xetex-pstricks/pstricks.con
+These will be found by default when PSTricks is loaded by Xe(La)TeX, but not
+by other engines which will find the standard `pstricks.con' file in the
+`generic' tree.
+
+These two files simply load the real configuration file `xetex-pstricks.con',
+which is installed in the `generic' tree but will not be found by other engines
+because of its different name.
