+============================================================
+
+1. Abstract
+--------------------------
+
+There are a lot of packages for typesetting units in LaTeX2e.
+Some define macros to typeset a lot of units but do not suit
+to the actual font settings, some make the characters needed
+available but do not predefine any unit.
+ This package tries to comply with both requirements. It
+predefines common units, defines an easy to use interface to
+define new units and changes the output concerning to the
+surrounding font settings.
+
+
+2. Contents of the package
+--------------------------
+
+ unitsdef.dtx
+ unitsdef.ins
+ README.1st (this file)
+ defedunits.tex
+ defedpraef.tex
+ unitsdef.pdf
+ ampabbrv.cfg
+ freqabbr.cfg
+ molabbrv.cfg
+ volabbrv.cfg
+ weigabbr.cfg
+ enerabbr.cfg
+ lengabbr.cfg
+ timeabbr.cfg
+ voltabbr.cfg
+
+
+
+3. Installation
+--------------------------
+
+ - Run unitsdef.ins through latex to produce the packages style
+ file.
+
+ - If you want to produce the documentation by yourself:
+ Run unitsdef.dtx through latex twice, run
+
+ makeindex -s gglo.ist -o unitsdef.gls unitsdef.glo
+
+ to produce the list of changes and
+
+ makeindex -s gind.ist unitsdef
+
+ and run unitsdef.dtx through latex again.
+
+
+ - If in your TDS already proper directories exist you should be able
+ to skip the next two steps
+
+ - Move the resulting .sty file to where latex finds it. On a TDS
+ compliant system this should be (substitute $TEXMF with your
+ texmf directory):
+
+ $TEXMF/tex/latex/unitsdef/
+
+ - Move all files from the config directory to a place where latex
+ finds them.
+
+ $TEXMF/tex/latex/unitsdef/config/
+
+ - Move the documentation (unitsdef.pdf, if you haven't produced
+ your own copy in a different format) to a place where latex will
+ find it, usually, in a TDS compliant system:
+
+ $TEXMF/doc/unitsdef
+
+ - If you like to move the source files (.dtx, .ins and .tex) in a
+ source directory of your system.
+
+ - Update your filename database. How to do this depends on your
+ distribution.
