I created it primarily for the purpose of teaching myself METAFONT, and it later occurred to me that it would make a good basis for others learning to use METAFONT by providing them with a very simple and well-commented implementation of a typeface. I felt that as a Roman font it deserved a Roman name, and when considering the options I came across Claudius, from the Roman family name which was derived from Latin »claudus« meaning »lame« or »crippled«.

The original motivation was that it was often convienient to put any number of resources under version control: Programs, LaTeX macro pacakages, fonts, etc. However, for a user to be able to take advantage of these resources after checking them out of the repository they would need to configure their shells scripts to adjust their environment variables appropriately.

After running the original documents through OCR, I cleaned up the formatting and fixed several typographical errors. It badly needs further reorganizing, as the original document was at times more lists of notes. So you'll notice some information just dumped in a few random places. Most of the information appears to be correct, and a lot of it is, but don't assume it to be so. I had to fix my birthdate.
