This environment is losely based on ideas used +in the \endchapter macro of the manmac format from The TeXbook. + + +REQUIREMENTS: +It is assumed that you have the fonts cmssq8.mf and cmssqi8.mf. +Since they are part of the 75 standard Computer Modern Fonts, +they should be available in a every TeX installation. +If you want to use the DC-version of these fonts, you need to +have version 1.1 of the DC-fonts and you need to edit the file +dcstdedt.tex so that dcssq8.mf and dcssqi8.mf will be generated. + +To typeset the documentation, you also need the `mflogo' package +by the same author, which should be located in the directory +/macros/latex2e/contrib/supported/mflogo (or simply ../mflogo). + + +CONTENTS OF THE DISTRIBUTION: +This distribution consists of the following files that should be +located in the directory /macros/latex2e/contrib/supported/ssqquote: + +ssqquote.readme - this README file +ssqquote.ins - installation script for LaTeX2e +ssqquote.dtx - documented sources for LaTeX2e + +Running the installation script ssqquote.ins through LaTeX2e will +produce the following files: + +OT1cmssq.fd - font definition file for LaTeX2e +T1cmssq.fd - font definition file for LaTeX2e +ssqquote.sty - example package file for LaTeX2e +ssqquote.drv - documentation driver for LaTeX2e + + +INSTALLATION PROCEDURE: + +1. Check that the METAFONT inputs directory of your TeX installation + contains the files cmssq8.mf and cmssqi8.mf. This should normally + be the case. If not, retrieve the files from /systems/knuth/cm, + install them in you METAFONT inputs directory and generate them + by running them through METAFONT. + +2. If you want to use the DC-version of these fonts, check that + you've got version 1.1 of the DC-fonts available from /fonts/dc. + Before you install them, edit the file dcstdedt.tex and + uncomment the lines to produce the fonts dcssq and dcssqi. + +3. Now, after you have installed and/or updated the required fonts, + you can run the installation script ssqquote.ins through LaTeX2e. + +4. Finally, install the font definition files OT1cmssq.fd and + T1cmssq.fd as well as the package file ssqquote.sty in your + LaTeX2e inputs directory. + +5. If you want to typeset the documentation, run the documentation + driver ssqquote.drv through LaTeX2e. This requires the `mflogo' + package available from /macros/latex2e/contrib/supported/mflogo. + + +LEGALESE: +The standard disclaimers and restrictions for LaTeX2e also apply +for this package. In particular, you are not allowed to distribute +generated files produced from this package without the accompanying +documentation. However, you are free to incorporate the code for +the font changing commands from the example package file in your +own packages if you only want to use the font defintion file from +this package. + +This package is supported. Send bug reports or questions and comments +to the author's e-mail address given below. Please note that the +LaTeX3 Project Team is *not* responsible for this contributed package. + + +Happy TeXing, + +Ulrik Vieth E-Mail: vieth@convex.rz.uni-duesseldorf.de 94/05/21 |
