| They are all free software, but not officially part of Texinfo, and the |
| Texinfo maintainers don't support them (and generally have no knowledge |
| about them, just passing them on). |
| |
| The texifont/ subdirectory was an attempt at implementing a generalized |
| font system, but it remains incomplete. See the README there. |
| |
| In contrast, the two txipsfonts-* files are attempts by Torsten Bronger |
| and Stephen Gildea, respectively, to use base PostScript fonts instead |
| of Computer Modern, in the simplest way. (I could not find the right |
| version of the original texinfo.tex on which Torsten's file was based.) |
| Adapting one of these to actually be installable would doubtless be much |
| simpler (which is not to say simple) than finalizing texifont/, though |
| of course much less featureful. |
| |
| The perldoc-all subdirectory is about making Texinfo out of the standard |
| Perl *.pod files. |
