If you don't have Metafont or work +on an old LaTeX version, follow the special instructions in +INSTALL.HOW. + +Please look at ... + + the remarks at the top of the c source code. + INSTALL.HOW + tttintro.* + The documentation supplied with the other two packages. + + +FEATURES +-------- + +This program is able to typeset many syllables which originate from +Sanskrit. Tables and inline LaTeX commands are also supported. +You can import ACIP transcribed texts into LaTeX. +Look at tttintro.* for further info. + + +DISADVANTAGES +------------- + +More complex command line. +The vovels on tsa, tsha and dza are not specially handled and don't +look as nice as in the other implementations. The same applies to +cu and tsu, which are not confused any more. You will have to +remove such workarounds from your texts. + + +THANKS +------ + +to Jeff Sparkes and Sam Sirlin for their previous implementations, +which supplied me the fonts and some good ideas for the ttt program. + + + Beat.Steiner@gseved.admin.ch March 1997 + + + + + + + + |
