The package provides mf parameter files to generate
a Concrete version of the tipa IPA fonts, together with
LaTeX .fd for the new font family, and type1 outlines
generated from the .mf source via TeXtrace.
The parameters are taken from Knuth's original Concrete
fonts and combined with a few values specific to the TIPA fonts.
