+This is fancyhdr, a replacement for fancyheadings. 
+
+I still still intend to make sometime in the future a real .dtx of it,
+including the minimal documentation. The current documentation is in
+fancyhdr.tex, but this contains much more material than the fancyhdr doc.
+When the fancyhdr.dtx is ready, I will rename fancyhdr.tex into something
+like pagelayout.tex to get it more in line with the title (Page Layout in
+LaTeX).
+
+fancyhdr is 99% compatible with fancyheadings. The only incompatibility is
+that \headrulewidth and \footrulewidth and their \plain... versions are no
+longer length parameters, but normal macros (to be changed with
+\renewcommand rather than \setlength).
+
+Although all the other old fancyheadings commands continue to work you are
+advised to use the new syntax as described in fancyhdr.tex, because this is
+much easier to use in complicated cases. The old way of doing is no longer
+described in the manual, except for the simplest use of \lhead etc.
+
+In order to latex the documentation you need to install a copy of
+tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/other/misc/boxedminipage.sty
+
+The fixmarks.sty is now obsolete, as it is superseded by David Carlisle's
+fix2col.sty (tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/carlisle/) so it is
+no longer included here.
+
+fancyhdr.sty version 3 and extramarks.sty version 2 are the packages
+as described in the second edition of The LaTeX Companion.
+
+LICENCE: All files in this package may be distributed under the terms of
+the LaTeX Project Public License, as described in lppl.txt in the base
+LaTeX distribution. Either version 1 or, at your option, any later
+version.
