%
%       Access to the cyrillic is through the new MR transliteration scheme,
%       using TeX/Metafont ligature capability.  (An alternate set of
%       ligatures exists, for accessing letters beyond the 26 located in
%       the font positions of the 26 roman letters.  An authoritative list
%       of the ligature rules is in the file  cyrillic.ligs.)  Successful
%       use of this file requires appropriate cyrillic and accent fonts,
%       arranged according to the AMS/MR scheme.
%
%       This is an interim version.  Not everything works yet.
%       The following are known to be less than satisfactory:
%
%       the intermediate `ligatures' for shch access numerals;
%       primes (transliteration of hard/soft signs) use math mode;
%       underbar on `cap' double prime is too low (hard sign);
%       thorn d's don't yet exist;
%       \cydot uses math mode.
%
%
%       Notes on the macros:
%
%       The single space following each hex character code is necessary
%       to prevent the next input character from being gobbled.

\topinfo

The AMS cyrillic fonts have been designed so that input using the
``new'' (post-1982) Math.~Reviews cyrillic transliteration will be
converted directly to cyrillic text.  An alternate input form is
available for most cyrillic letters which are not transliterated by
the equivalent single roman letters.  Numerals and punctuation follow
the normal input conventions for roman.  Cyrillic is indicated to
\TeX\ by the command |{\cyr...}|.

The table below is in alphabetical order as given in the table published
in the 1983 MR Author Index.  The three paired columns contain:\ \ %
(1)~cyrillic;
(2)~transliteration-style input;
(3)~alternate input, if any.

\noindent In addition to the input codes shown in the table, the code
|\cydot| is used between letters that ordinarily become ligatures to
indicate that they are really separate letters.  For example,
|t\cydot s|${}\mapsto{}${\cyr t\cydot s} (in transliteration, t\cydot s)
as opposed to |ts|${}\mapsto{}${\cyr ts}.

\medskip

\noindent {\bf Technical notes:}\ \ The names of the AMS cyrillic fonts
begin with the letters ``|MC|'' (for ``Math Society cyrillic'').  Only
|MCYR| (lightface) is available at present, but several other styles
are under construction: |MCB| (bold), |MCSS| (sans serif),
|MCSSB| (bold sans serif), and others may be added from time to time.
These fonts were prepared using {\smc Metafont79}.
In addition to the font files, the file |CYRACC.DEF| must also be
input for the complete cyrillic alphabet to be usable according to these
instructions.
