      A package to switch the rendering of all the digits to the
      so-called ``old-style'' numbers, when using Lucida fonts. The
      switch affects all digits in text mode, or all digits in text
      and math mode. It works both for normal weight and boldface
      text and math; since the boldface old-style digits are in
      the ``Lucida Expert'' font set, you need it for the boldface
      digits. Includes a set of AWK programs used to automatically
      build fd, tfm and vf files from the existing Lucida PSNFSS
      distribution, and that may easily changed for the generation
      of different virtual files for whatever font.
