+ README for the `langcode' package
+
+ Adjust Language-Dependent Settings
+ by Language Code
+
+ (C) Uwe Lueck 2012/09/20
+
+
+`langcode.sty' in the first instance provides a command
+
+ \uselangcode{<chars>}
+
+to adjust language-dependent settings, such as key words,
+typographical conventions, and language codes (ISO-639-1).
+An author frequently writing documents in two or more languages
+can use the same commands independently of the language,
+provided they are gathered in a list macro to be used by the
+`dowith' package. If `\<cmd>' is in the list, it is set to work
+like `\<chars><cmd>', and a macro `\langcode' will expand to
+<chars> (the respective tokens), usable in URLs.
+
+The package is ``generic," based on `plainpkg'. The code has
+been used with `morehype' and `catchdq' (`catcodes'), but may
+be useful more generally.
+
+REQUIRED PACKAGES: plainpkg, stackrel, dowith
+
+RELATED PACKAGES: babel, polyglossia;
+ morehype, catchdq (catcodes)
+
+KEYWORDs: language support; German, macro programming
+ (programming structures), hypertext
