README for the `plainpkg' package
(C) Uwe Lueck 2012/09/20
`plainpkg.tex' provides a "minimal" method for making "generic"
packages, combining `maybeload' functionality, fallback definitions
for \ProvidesPackage and \RequirePackage, and handling of arbitrary
(multiple) "private letters" in nested package files. The
documentation contains a central reference for making and using
"generic" packages based on `plainpkg.tex'.

plainpkg – A minimal method for making generic packages
The package provides a minimal method for making generic (i.e., TeX-format-independent) packaged, combining maybeload functionality, fallback definitions for LaTeX \ProvidesPackage and \RequirePackage functionality, and handling of arbitrary (multiple) “private letters” (analagous LaTeX packages’ use of “@”) in nested package files. The documentation contains a central reference for making and using generic packages based on the package.
