+This is the complete set of files to generate a EC font oriented PLAIN.FMT
+
+The main file for plain format is EC-PLAIN.
+The main file for pdf plain format is EC-PDFPLAIN.
+
+The EC-PLFMT.BAT is MSDOS file (for 386 and emTeX) which I
+used to generate the EC-PLAIN format under emTeX.
+
+For the TeXLive distribution, the building commands are:
+
+ -- initex ec-plain
+ -- pdfinitex ec-pdfplain
+
+The code page converter I use (to avoid active characters >127)
+is 850DCTEX.TCP (to be transferred in BINARY). Its source
+to be compiled with maketcp is 850DCTEX.MTC (to be transferred
+in ASCII). Use maketcp version 1.1c or later with option -c
+to generate 850DCTEX.TCP
+
+With the TeXLive distribution, one should only change he [pdf]texing
+commands by adding the option "translate-file":
+
+tex.exe -translate-file=cp850-fr.tcx &ec-plain \input %1 %2 %3 %4
+pdftex.exe -translate-file=cp850-fr.tcx &ec-pdfplain \input %1 %2 %3 %4
+
+
+CAUTION
+=======
+File names in this directory have been changed from the original (e.g.
+dcacceur.tex --> hyacceur.tex) in order to have no missing file when
+generating format. Thus you should put these files in a directory distinct
+from your usual TEXINPUT, unless you look at EC-PLFMT.BAT to rename them
+backwards.
+
+ec-plain.tex differs from plain.tex for:
+ - font names (e.g. cmr10 -> ecrm1000)
+ - cmmi* -> exmi* with 128 additional chars to have upright greek capitals
+ - several mathchardefs
+ - inclusion of hyacceur.tex+acmacros.sty+hyconfig.ptx instead of hyphen.tex
+ - \magstep up to 9
