+README for the `xt_capts' package (February 1998)
+=================================
+
+Abstract:
+---------
+This package allows to define language dependent text macros. They are
+called \emph{extended captions}, because \emph{caption} is the term that is
+used in \LaTeX2e for denoting language dependent words.
+
+Whenever a new language is selected, the appropriate macros are used,
+provided they have been defined. In addition, a default variant can be
+defined for \emph{all} languages. And it is possible to use a fixed
+language for a caption, which is not affected by changing the current
+language.
+
+
+Installation:
+-------------
+Running LaTeX on the file `xt_capts.ins' will produce the package file
+`xt_capts.sty'. So you should first process
+
+ latex xt_capts.ins
+
+The resulting package file should then be moved to a directory on
+LaTeX's standard input path.
+
+
+Documentation:
+--------------
+The documented source code of this package is in the file `xt_capts.dtx'.
+Documentation for the package may be obtained by running LaTeX on that file.
+
+For example:
+
+ latex xt_capts.dtx
+
+will produce the file xt_capts.dvi, documenting the package.
+
+
+
+Good Luck!
