Mbboard info file (in progress)

Game of the name

So mbb10 and mbbcr10.

Elementary things

     There are files named xxx.mf that should be placed in a directory where your MetaFont program can find them. Then there are mbboard.tex (plainTeX input file), mbboard.sty (LaTeX input file) and mbboard.dcl (file related to the former ones), that should be placed somewhere TeX can find them. I won't tell you how to deal with all of this. You must know how to proceed (that's not complicated anyway).

Licence

     The same licence as the one imposed by D. E. Knuth for Computer Modern should apply: do not distribute altered files if you are not changing the names... I stay in charge of maintaining those programs and making them evolute.
     I say that they could evolute? Yes, and they'd better do. Typographical designs should not be frozen until, at least, they have reached some very high level of perfection. Nobody could wait for that. So here is the present stuff, with a SEND-ME-A-POSTCARD supplementary licence.
     Here are the reasons why: first, if you are happy, you should communicate your joy to me and that would be a nice thing (you can also send me your books, or even your mathematical papers), then, if you think that inprovements have to be made, you could tell me those on a piece of paper with some drawings, or even write down the ligns of source code you want to be changed. For the encoding matter of the main fonts, it has to be discussed directly: it's a too big thing to be written down on a postcard.

By the way,
HAPPY TeXING!
A.P.

Character's list (to be continued)

Explanation

iff loc:
the character is generated if and only if its location is defined.
und loc:
the character is generated as soon as the corresponding file is input. Its location must be defined in that case.
