Here's a last-minute change put into TeX82, versions numbered 0.6 and up:
	Fonts are no longer numbered!
The full implications of this are discussed in file TEX82.DIF[tex,dek], but
for almost everybody there is a simple way to change your files if they
worked with version 0.5 of TeX82:

(a) If you have been using the \newfont macro to declare your fonts,
just change "\newfont whatever \is\foo" to "\font\foo=whatever".
Also delete all occurrences of "\:" in your files.

(b) If you have been using integers to declare your fonts, e.g.
"\font `A=cmr10 at 12pt", change this to "\font\fontA=cmr10 at 12pt"
and then replace "\:`A" by "\fontA". (Instead of "\fontA" you can
make up your favorite name for the font; any control sequence will do.)

If you don't make these changes, you will get error messages, either
that \newfont is undefined, or \: is undefined, or that there's a
missing font identifier (i.e., no control sequence after \font).
