+ The ledmac package is for typesetting critical editions. It is a
+LaTeX port, and extension, of the plain TeX EDMAC, TABMAC and EDSTANZA
+macros. The ledpar package is an extension of ledmac enabling parallel
+typesetting in columns or on facing pages. The ledarab package is
+an extension enabling the use of arabic script, as implemented by ArabTeX,
+in critical editions (temporarily afoot.sty is provided to support regular
+footnotes in ArabTeX).
+
+These 3 packages are deprecated :
+ - Ledmac is replace by eledmac.
+ - Ledpar is replace by eledpar
+ - Learab is unmaintened. You should consider using of XeLaTeX instead.
+
+ Bug reports and suggestions are welcome.
+
+This version of the package is stored in github https://github.com/maieul/ledmac

+
+ To install the ledmac package:
+o run: latex ledmac.ins (which will generate ledmac.sty)
+o Move ledmac.sty (and ledpatch.sty if it exists) to a location where
+ LaTeX will find it (for more information on this see the FAQ).
+
+ To generate a second copy of the manual (which is already supplied as a PDF file):
+o run: make ledmac.pdf
+
+ The *.eps files are example pages processed with the ledmac package.
+They are included as figures in ledmac.dtx, which also contains the
+source code for them.
+
+ Installation of the other packages (via ledpar.ins and ledarab.ins)
+is similar.
