+Lout-related software form elsewhere
+====================================
+
+This directory contains information about software related to
+Lout but not distributed with Lout. For various practical
+reasons, such as size, licenses, version control, etc., it was
+considered better not to bundle this with Lout itself. This
+directory is maintained by Jeff Kingston, but he exercises no
+editorial control over it beyond checking that the software
+advertised in it appears to have some connection with Lout. In
+particular, there is no guarantee that the stuff exists, works,
+is compatible, is supported by its author, etc. Use at own risk.

+I've developed a little Lout package that will enable you to generate
+barcodes from lout.3.04 (or later).
+
+Usage is very simple. Add the following line to the include portion of
+your lout file
+
+ @SysInclude { barcodes }
+
+and every time you wish to use the barcode font use the following
+syntax
+
+ {BarCode Base} @Font { object }
+
+
+The font is a 3 of 9 barcode font developed by Willem van Schaik.
+
+The package is available as lout.barcodes.1.0.tar.gz and can be found
+with the rest of the Lout distribution at
+
+ ftp://ftp.cs.su.oz.au/jeff/

+LOUT.EIFFEL - EIFFEL PROGRAM PRINTING IN LOUT DOCUMENTS (VERSION 1.1)
+
+This software allows you to print programs and program fragments
+from the Eiffel programming language with Lout. The typeset output
+conforms with the style guidelines in the standard reference (Eiffel:
+The Language, by Bertrand Meyer).
+
+When installed, the only change you have to make is to replace the
+@SysInclude { doc } at the top of the document by @SysInclude { edoc },
+then enclose your Eiffel parts in @Eiffel { ... }.
+
+Lout.eiffel is distributed as follows:
+
+ ftp://ftp.cs.su.oz.au/jeff/lout.eiffel.1.1.tar.gz
+
+In other words, in a gzipped tar file called "lout.eiffel.1.1.tar.gz"
+in the "jeff" subdirectory of the home directory of "ftp ftp.cs.su.oz.au"
+with login name "ftp" or "anonymous" using any non-empty password.
+The distribution contains
+
+ * Source code for the eif2lout program
+
+ * A manual entry for the eif2lout program
+
+ * Six Lout library files (edoc, etc.)
+
+ * A makefile and installation instructions (very easy)
+
+User documentation is contained in the Lout User's Guide distributed
+with Lout itself.
+
+Lout.eiffel was designed and implemented by Jeffrey H. Kingston
+(jeff@cs.su.oz.au) of the Basser Department of Computer Science at the
+University of Sydney.

+LOUT.TEQ - TEX MATHEMATICS IN LOUT DOCUMENTS (VERSION 2.0)
+
+Jeffrey H. Kingston
+jeff@cs.su.oz.au
+
+This software allows you to produce mathematics using the TeX
+mathematical fonts, which are considered to produce better-looking
+mathematics than the Adobe Systems Symbol font used by standard Lout.
+
+When installed, the only change you have to make is to replace the
+@SysInclude { eq } at the top of the document by @SysInclude { teq }.
+Everything else is automatic. You do not have to have TeX on your
+system for this to work. The cost is an extra 252 KB in the PostScript
+output file (because the TeX fonts have to be included in it).
+
+Lout.teq is distributed as follows:
+
+ ftp://ftp.cs.su.oz.au/jeff/lout.teq.2.0.tar.gz
+
+In other words, in a gzipped tar file called "lout.teq.2.0.tar.gz"
+in the "jeff" subdirectory of the home directory of "ftp ftp.cs.su.oz.au"
+with login name "ftp" or "anonymous" using any non-empty password.
+The distribution contains
+
+ * License information (non-commercial only owing to license
+ restrictions on the fonts used)
+
+ * Five TeX mathematical font metrics and encoding vector files
+
+ * The teq and teq.lpg source files
+
+ * A makefile and installation instructions (very easy)
+
+User documentation is contained in the Lout User's Guide distributed
+with Lout itself (Section 7.8).
+
+Lout.teq was designed and implemented by Jeffrey H. Kingston
+(jeff@cs.su.oz.au) of the Basser Department of Computer Science at the
+University of Sydney. The fonts were converted to PostScript from
+D. E. Knuth's METAFONT by Basil Malyshev.
