Note: the `cyrillic' bundle will not +work with LaTeX2e releases older than 1998/12/01. + +Starting with the version 3.6k, BABEL system officially supports T2 +encodings.

The package + supports an option `warn', which will produce warning messages in case + of using Cyrillic letters in math formulae. Load this package _before_ + babel and/or fontenc. + +* the package `citehack.sty' redefines some of the LaTeX commands in + order to make it possible to use Cyrillic letters as arguments of + \cite and \bibitem commands (it is not specific to Cyrillic; the same + problems would arise if one will try to use characters defined via the + inputenc package as labels or notes of \cite and \bibitem commands). + It also makes it possible to use inputenc-generated characters in + \label and \ref arguments. + + This is a temporary hack. Hopefully, the corresponding commands will + be corrected in the next release of LaTeX2e. + +* read a `README' file in the `etc/rubibtex' directory if you are + using bibtex. + +* read a `README' file in the `etc/rumkidx' directory if you are using + makeindex. + +* the directory `examples' contains some examples which demonstrate + usage of Cyrillic packages.
