Does anyone know of the existence of METAFONT source for a Caslon-ish
roman font?  The document I'm writing is on a historical subject and
cmr is kind of modern-looking.  If I don't find anything better, I'm
going to try tweaking the Computer Modern to see if I can make it
produce a pseudo-Caslon; I think that increasing the x-height and
making thin and thick more equal should make for a less glaringly
modern tone.  Any suggestions would be helpful.
