CONTENTS AND INSTALLATION
- README.md (this file)
- xskak.dtx
- xskak.ins
- xskak.tex, xskak.pdf (the main documentation file)
- some files needed to typeset the documentation
Run TeX/LaTeX on xskak.ins to unpack the dtx.
Put the three extracted files in tex/latex/xskak/.
The dtx-file doesn't contain any documentation. So running LaTeX on it makes no sense!
Put the other files in doc/latex/xskak/
Update the filename database
