LaTeX support for old german fonts

["Walter Schmidt" <wschmi@ibm.net>]

A new and enhanced 

    LaTeX support package for the old german fonts 

is now available in the CTAN directory

    macros/latex/contrib/supported/yfonts .

The package yfonts.sty supports the old german fonts `Gotisch',
`Fraktur', `Schwabacher' and `Initialen' designed by Yannis
Haralambous.

In contrast to oldgerm.sty the package provides a full *NFSS
interface*, and it may be used in conjunction with 
*german.sty*.  The package comes as a documented LaTeX source 
with an installation script and an example document.

This software replaces my now obsolete package fraktur.sty,
which has been removed.  Major changes are:

  * support for the gothic font, too
  * various bug fixes
  * better documentation

Greetings

Walter Schmidt
