+This folder contains a variety of helpful tools for font conversion.
+
+Makefile:
+
+	.ttf -> .afm -> .dit (ditroff font for (g)troff)
+	.bdf -> .otb
+
+	fonts (install otb fonts to ~/.fonts)
+	groff (install fonts to groff's system font directory)
+
+All rules assume that the fonts are located in the var/ directory.
+
+Extra scripts:
+
+	rename (given a family name, rename troff font file appropriately)
+	convert (batch generate and rename troff font files)
