Getting Started
The knuth-local
package is a collection of experimental programs and developments created by Donald Knuth, not a LaTeX package that you include directly in your documents. These files complement Knuth's main TeX distribution.
No special setup is required in your LaTeX documents to use these files. If you need to access specific files from this collection, they should be available through your TeX distribution's file system, typically in the texmf-dist/tex/generic/knuth-local directory.
Examples
This package contains experimental programs and developments by Donald Knuth. It is not intended for general use in LaTeX documents, but rather serves as a collection of Knuth's local information and experimental code.
