Summary description: Define old font commands

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Since the font commands of LaTeX 2.09 or plainTeX are no longer
to be used with LaTeX2e, some classes no longer define them.
So using them results in an error message.
Other classes, such as the KOMA-Script classes, do define them,
but only in such a way that their use results in a somewhat more
informative error message.
However, since some packages or old BiBTeX styles require these
commands, it may sometimes be necessary to define these obsolete
font commands anyway. This is what the package is for.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at

Thanks for the upload.
