-The _supported_ moreverb package... supported in the sense that I'll
-try and get things mended.
+The moreverb package is a miscellany of verbatim facilities,
+originally provided as a LaTeX 2.09 package.
-This is a further iteration of moreverb, following my original port to
-2e and a bug mend (or two?) by David Carlisle.
+The present instance has been ported to current LaTeX (2e), tidied and
+mended in various ways by David Carlisle and Morten H\o gholm.
-This version has been pruned somewhat, from its 2.09 original, to take
-account of changes to the facilities offered by the LaTeX team members
-themselves.
+Some of the facilities of the original package are no longer provided
+in this package, since they duplicated those of the LaTeX required
+verbatim package (which this package loads) or the alltt package
+(which is now part of the LaTeX distribution).
-Major changes from the original 2e port are:
-
- - the package no longer (re-)implements \verbatiminput (since it's
- in the verbatim package, which the package loads anyway)
- - the package no longer implements the verbatimcmd environment, and
- points you to alltt instead
- - the source is `documented'
+The package is distributed under the LPPL.
