+concmath --- LaTeX support for Concrete Math fonts.
+
+Copyright (C) 1995--99 Ulrik Vieth

+
+DESCRIPTION:
+
+This directory contains the documented sources of the `concmath'
+package for LaTeX(2e) that provides access to the Concrete Math
+typefaces, which were derived from the Concrete Roman typefaces
+designed by Donald E. Knuth.
+
+The Concrete Math fonts provide a collection of math italics,
+math symbol, and math extension fonts that complement the
+Concrete Roman fonts, so that the Concrete family of typefaces
+may be used as a complete replacement for Computer Modern.
+(Orginally, Concrete Roman was designed as a text font for use
+with the Euler math font, designed by Hermann Zapf.)
+
+Since Concrete is considerably darker than Computer Modern, this
+variant may be of particular interest for use in low-resolution
+printing or in display-oriented applications such as posters,
+transparencies, or online documents.
+
+To use this package, you will need the following sets of fonts:
+
+* Concrete Roman (located in CTAN:fonts/concrete)
+* Concrete Math (located in CTAN:fonts/concmath)
+
+To facilitate the installation, the Concrete Math fonts are made
+available through a symbolic link, so that the contents of
+CTAN:fonts/concmath is automatically included as a subdirectory
+if you download this directory as a `.zip' or `.tar.gz' archive.
+
+
+OVERVIEW:
+
+The `concmath' distribution consists of the following files:
+
+ README - some notes on the `concmath' package
+ Makefile - Makefile to install the `concmath' package
+ concmath.dtx - documented source of the `concmath' package
+ concmath.ins - LaTeX installation script
+
+Subdirectory `fonts':
+
+ README - some notes on the Concrete Math fonts
+ Makefile - Makefile to install the `concmath' fonts
+
+Subdirectory `fonts/mf':
+
+ xcc*.mf - Metafont drivers for various sizes and shapes
+
+Subdirectory `fonts/tfm':
+
+ xcc*.tfm - TeX font metrics for various sizes and shapes
+
+
+INSTALLATION:
+
+(1) Before installing the `concmath' package and typesetting the
+documentation, make sure that you have the Concrete Roman and
+Concrete Math fonts installed.
+
+If you are lucky, both sets may have already been provided as
+part of your TeX distribution. Otherwise, if you have to
+install the Concrete Math fonts yourself, proceed by changing to
+the `fonts' subdirectory and installing the fonts from there.
+
+- If you have a TDS-compatible TeX installation, you may try to
+ use the `Makefile' in the `fonts' subdirectory by calling:
+
+ cd fonts ; make install
+
+- For manual installation of the font sources and font metric
+ files, please consult the instructions in `fonts/README'.
+
+(2) After the fonts have been installed, return to this directory.
+To unpack the `concmath' package and to typeset the documentation,
+ proceed as follows:
+
+- If you have a TDS-compatible TeX installation, you may try to
+ use the enclosed `Makefile' by calling:
+
+ make ; make install
+
+- For manual installation, run
+
+ latex concmath.ins
+
+ to unpack the package file `concmath.sty' and the corresponding
+ font definition files (*.fd) from the source file `concmath.dtx'.
+
+ To typeset the documentation, run
+
+ latex concmath.dtx
+
+ twice to generate `concmath.dvi'.
+
+ Finally, to install the `concmath' package, copy the files
+ `concmath.sty' and all `*.fd' to TEXMF/tex/latex/concmath or
+ wherever else your installation keeps LaTeX(2e) `.sty' files.
+
+
+Happy TeXing!
