+such as IDEF or UML. Particular support is provided for creating
+EXPRESS-G diagrams.

+ To install the package:
+o run: latex expressg.ins (which will generate expressg.mp,
+ expeg.mp, expeg.tex, n2mps.sh and n2mpsprl.prl)
+o run: latex expressg.dtx
+ (Note: if you don't have the docmfp package, read the instructions
+ at the start of this file)
+o If you want an index then run: makeindex -s gind.ist expressg
+o run: latex expressg.dtx
+o Print expressg.dvi for a hardcopy of the package manual
+o Move expressg.mp to a location where MetaPost will find it.
+o To use the scripts make them executable (and they may require editing
+ to run on your system).
+
+ The file expeg.ps contains some example diagrams. To generate your
+own copy, and to test your installation:
+o Move expeg.mp and expeg.tex to a working directory
+o Run MetaPost on expeg.mp (probably either as: mp expeg or as: mpost expeg)
+o Run LaTeX on expeg.tex
+o print the result via dvips or other dvi processor that supports PostScript
+ graphics.
+
+ The file aam.mp contains some more example MetaPost code. The
+resulting diagrams are in aamfigs.pdf which has been generated by pdfLaTeX
+from aamfigs.tex.
