Changes:
========
February 2009
-------------
New versions of all fonts with small corrections. OpenType versions.

January 2008
------------
Added AlphaDia.*
New versions of Skak-Diagram*.* (technical clean-up)

May 2006
--------
This is version 1.3 of SkakNew-Diagram and SkakNew-DiagramT. I have
added some character 'masks' for use with the new version of chessfss
and chessboard by Ulrike Fischer. Their main task is for separately
colouring borders, fields, character outlines, and character inlines.
For more information see the documentation of the resp. styles. PDFs
showing the font layout are supplied.
