+== PURPOSE ==
+
+This bundle is an extension to the babel package for multilingual
+typesetting. It provides all necessary macros, definitions and settings
+to typeset French documents. It is designed to work with the following
+engines: pdfTeX, XeTeX and LuaTeX.
+
+== CONTENTS ==
+
+The bundle consists of the following files:
+
+* frenchb.ins: installation file to unpack the language definition files,
+* frenchb.dtx: packed language definition files and documentation,
+* frenchb.pdf: unpacked documentation for babel-french,
+* frenchb-doc.pdf: comprehensive documentation in French,
+* frenchb-doc.tex: source file of frenchb-doc.pdf,
+* README (this file).
+
+== INSTALLATION ==
+
+If the latest version of this package is not included in your LaTeX
+distribution, do the following:
+
+* issue "luatex frenchb.ins" to unpack the language definition files;
+* copy the files frenchb.lua, french.ldf, frenchb.ldf, francais.ldf,
+ acadian.ldf and canadien.ldf to a location where TeX can find them
+ (default location: $TEXMF/tex/generic/babel-french/);
+* rebuild the database (mktexlsr or so).
