The mayanumber package
======================

Mayan numerals (dots and bars) and vigesimal alphabetic notation (0-9, A-J)
for LaTeX, with positional floor colors in a seven-color cycle.

- Engines: XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. Loads xcolor and fontspec automatically.
- Font: requires the free font "BabelStone Mayan Numerals"
  (https://www.babelstone.co.uk/Fonts/). An alternative face (e.g. Noto Sans
  Mayan Numerals) can be declared as \mayanumerals BEFORE loading the
  package; the package then skips its own declaration.
- Default output: vertical stack of glyphs, colored by positional floor
  (floor 0 = units at the bottom). Options: vertical|horizontal,
  colors|nocolor, scale=<n>, align=<c|t|b>; they combine freely.
  Starred form \mayanumber*{N} prints the alphabetic notation.
- Unlimited magnitude: base-20 conversion by long division over the decimal
  string, immune to TeX's 32-bit integer limit.
