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?).
