The cypriot package provides a Metafont version of a syllabic script which was used on Cyprus for writing Greek. The script was in use between approximately the tenth and third centuries BC. It is one of a series of archaic fonts. The distribution consists of the following files: README (this file) cypriot.ins cypriot.dtx tryfont.tex The distribution is provided under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL). To install the package: o run: latex cypriot.ins, which will generate: cypr*.mf files *.fd files cypriot.sty o Move the generated files to locations where LaTeX will find them. For example: the cypr*.mf files to .../texmf/fonts/source/public/cypriot the *.fd and .sty files to /texmf/tex/latex/local/cypriot On a teTeX distribution you might also have to add the following line to texmf/fontname/special.map: cypr10.mf public cypriot On a teTeX distribution remember to run texhash after moving the files. To get the documentation: NOTE: It is useful, but not essential, to have access to the docmfp package. If this is not available, read the first few lines of cypriot.dtx as to what to do. o run: latex cypriot.dtx o if you want an index, run: makeindex -s gind.ist cypriot o run: latex cypriot.dtx o Print cypriot.dvi for a hardcopy of the package manual o run: latex tryfont for a testpage of the Cypriot font 1999/06/20 Peter Wilson peter.r.wilson@boeing.com
