-LaTeX .cls file to provide formatting as recommended by the Academy of Motion

-http://dvc.org.uk/sacrific.txt/
+This is a LaTeX .cls file to provide formatting as recommended by the
+Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
+
+Potential users need to read the information from the Academy, and
+a few example scripts, and draw their own conclusions. The current
+version of `screenplay.cls' (v 1.417 at time of writing) seems to me to be
+`good enough' to produce a fair copy for the Nicholl Fellowships
+Competition - if you do your part - which was the point of it (weeks ago
+when I started!). Whether ScriptTeX would, in fact, be a better solution
+if I managed to get my head around it is another question. It looks to
+me, however, that installing ScriptTeX and modifying it will be more work
+than using `screenplay.cls.' As a more generalised solution ScriptTeX
+may be better though (but then again, is that the UNIX way?).
