%
%  \subsubsection{The Ethiopian language}
%
%    The file \file{\filename}\footnote{The file described in this
%    section has version number \fileversion\ and was last revised on
%    \filedate.}  defines all the language definition macros for the
%    Ethiopian language. For this language the characters |~|, |^|,
%    |'|, |_|, |.| and |:| are made active. While this may not be
%    the most robust solution, it allows us to use shorthands
%    that are sufficiently close to the scientific transcription.
%    Especially the activation of~|^| and also~|.|~has some drawbacks.
%    \begin{itemize}
%    \item We cannot use |^||^| for entering special characters.
%      Usually this is done in package files only, so we do not
%      get into real trouble, since \babel\ activates the
%      characters only at the beginning of the document.
%    \item We cannot use |.| in numbers, while Ethiopian text
%      is being typeset. This is definitely a problem, because we
%      have to use a |,| instead of the |.| when entering numbers
%      for \TeX.
%    \end{itemize}
%    One must also remember that the Ethiopian language
%    requires a special font that has been hand-taylored to work
%    with this language definition. The font stretches the ligature
%    mechanism of \TeX\ to the limit and works only in connection
%    with this style.
%
% \StopEventually{}
%
%  \subsubsection*{General Setup}
%
%    The macro |\LdfInit| takes care of preventing that this file is
%    loaded more than once, checking the category code of the
%    \texttt{@} sign, etc.
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*code>
\LdfInit{ethiop}{captionsethiop}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    There is no hyphenation in the Ethiopian language, so
%    we do not expect a hyphenation table to be loaded.
%    For compatibility we add Ethiopian as a dialect of
%    language~0 and disable hyphenation later. Just in case,
%    we check for the existence of |\l@ethiop|.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifx\undefined\l@ethiop
  \adddialect\l@ethiop0\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    The next step consists of defining commands to switch to (and
%    from) the Ethiopian language.
%
%  \begin{macro}{\ethiophyphenmins}
%    This macro is used to store the correct values of the hyphenation
%    parameters |\lefthyphenmin| and |\righthyphenmin|. But because
%    there is no hyphenation, we set it to some arbitrarily high value.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\ethiophyphenmins{{99}{99}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\eth@doaltchar}
%    Since the Ethiopian language has more than 256 characters,
%    we need to output characters from an alternate font.
%    This is done by temporarily switching to the alternate font family.
%    This generates a considerable overhead in macro expansion time,
%    but no other possibility is available.
%
%    That last space is needed to get the stuff working
%    with $\Omega$. This seems to be a bug in $\Omega$.
%    But the space is certainly allowed,
%    so I will leave it as it is for the moment and
%    probably for a long time.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand{\eth@doaltchar}[1]{%
  {\fontfamily{\eth@altfamily}\selectfont\char#1 }%
}
%    \end{macrocode}
%  \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\dateethiop}
% \begin{macro}{\eth@modulo}
%    The macro |\dateethiop| redefines the command |\today| to
%    produce Ethiopian dates.
%
%    We define some count registers first. They will hold
%    intermediate results when we calculate the Ethiopian date.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcount\ethcnt@temp
\newcount\ethcnt@modtemp
\newcount\ethcnt@leap
\newcount\ethcnt@yminone
\newcount\ethcnt@days
\newcount\ethcnt@jdn
\newcount\ethcnt@cycle
\newcount\ethcnt@ethdays
\newcount\ethcnt@ethyear
\newcount\ethcnt@ethmonth
\newcount\ethcnt@ethday
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    To ease some calculations we define a macro for the
%    remainder of a division.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand{\eth@modulo}[2]{%
  \ethcnt@modtemp=#1%
  \divide\ethcnt@modtemp by #2%
  \multiply\ethcnt@modtemp by #2%
  \advance#1 by -\ethcnt@modtemp
}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    The Ethiopian calendar is a variant of the Julian calendar.
%    First we compute the day number from the Julian epoch, then
%    we calculate day, month, and year of the Ethiopian calendar.
%    Admittedly, the routine is a bit messy. 
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\dateethiop{%
  \def\today{{%
%    \end{macrocode}
%    |\ethcnt@yminone| denotes the current year minus one.
%    \[\textit{yminone}=\textit{year}-1\]
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ethcnt@yminone=\year
    \advance\ethcnt@yminone by -1
%    \end{macrocode}
%    We set |\ethcnt@leap| to $1$ if the current year in the
%    Gregorian calendar is a leap year.
%    \[\textit{leap}=
%       \Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}}{4}\Big\rfloor
%      -\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}-1}{4}\Big\rfloor
%      -\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}}{100}\Big\rfloor
%      +\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}-1}{100}\Big\rfloor
%      +\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}}{400}\Big\rfloor
%      -\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}-1}{400}\Big\rfloor\]
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ethcnt@leap=\year
    \divide\ethcnt@leap by 4
    \ethcnt@temp=\ethcnt@yminone
    \divide\ethcnt@temp by 4

    \ethcnt@temp=\ethcnt@yminone
    \divide\ethcnt@temp by 400
    \advance\ethcnt@leap by -\ethcnt@temp
%    \end{macrocode}
%    |\ethcnt@days| corresponds to the number of days since
%    January 0.
%    \[\textit{days}=
%      \left\{\begin{array}{l@{\quad}l}
%        31(\textit{month}-1)+\textit{day}-1 &
%        \textrm{if }\textit{month}\leq 2\\
%        30(\textit{month}-1)+\textit{day}+\textit{leap}-3+
%          \left\lfloor\frac{3 month-2}{5}\right\rfloor &
%        \textrm{if }\textit{month}\geq 3
%      \end{array}\right.\]
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ifnum\month<3
      \ethcnt@days=\month
      \advance\ethcnt@days by -1
      \multiply\ethcnt@days by 31
      \advance\ethcnt@days by \day
      \advance\ethcnt@days by -1
    \else
      \ethcnt@days=\month
      \advance\ethcnt@days by -1
      \multiply\ethcnt@days by 30
      \advance\ethcnt@days by \day
      \advance\ethcnt@days by \ethcnt@leap
      \advance\ethcnt@days by -3
      \ethcnt@temp=\month
      \multiply\ethcnt@temp by 3
      \advance\ethcnt@temp by -2
      \divide\ethcnt@temp by 5
      \advance\ethcnt@days by \ethcnt@temp
    \fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%    We can now determine the Julian day number, |\ethcnt@jdn|.
%    \[\textit{jdn}=1721426+\textit{days}+365(\textit{year}-1)
%      +\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}-1}{4}\Big\rfloor
%      -\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}-1}{100}\Big\rfloor
%      +\Big\lfloor\frac{\textit{year}-1}{400}\Big\rfloor\]
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ethcnt@jdn=\ethcnt@days
    \advance\ethcnt@jdn by 1721426
    \ethcnt@temp=\ethcnt@yminone
    \multiply\ethcnt@temp by 365
    \advance\ethcnt@jdn by \ethcnt@temp
    \ethcnt@temp=\ethcnt@yminone
    \divide\ethcnt@temp by 4
    \advance\ethcnt@jdn by \ethcnt@temp
    \ethcnt@temp=\ethcnt@yminone
    \divide\ethcnt@temp by 100
    \advance\ethcnt@jdn by -\ethcnt@temp
    \ethcnt@temp=\ethcnt@yminone
    \divide\ethcnt@temp by 400
    \advance\ethcnt@jdn by \ethcnt@temp
%    \end{macrocode}
%    The first task to determine the Ethiopian date is to
%    compute the number of the current day in a four
%    year cycle.
%    \[\textit{cycle}=(\textit{jdn}-1723856)\bmod 1461\]
%    \begin{macrocode}

    \eth@modulo{\ethcnt@cycle}{1461}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%    |\ethcnt@ethdays| contains the number of the current day in the

%    \[\textit{ethdays}=

%    \end{macrocode}
%    |\ethcnt@ethyear|, |\ethcnt@ethmonth|, and |\ethcnt@ethday| will denote the
%    Ethiopian year, month, and day.
%    \[\textit{ethyear}=

    \advance\ethcnt@ethday by 1
%    \end{macrocode}
%    We are almost finished now. We just need to format

% \end{macro}
% \end{macro}
%
%    We want to be able to switch to the
%    correct font by simply issuing the appropriate
%    |\selectlanguage| command. The defaults for font encoding and
%    family have to be changed, too, in order to get chapter headings
%    etc.~with the correct font. And we must remember our way back.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\addto\extrasethiop{%

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    In order to provide the dollar sign and the curly braces
%    we redefine the commands |\textdollar|, |\textbraceleft|, and |\textbraceright|.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\addto\extrasethiop{%

    \fontfamily{cmr}%
    \selectfont\char103 }}%
}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When we use |\-|, we want a

\addto\extrasethiop{%

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Sometimes \LaTeX\ uses |\MakeUppercase| and |\MakeLowercase|
%    to format text for output. However, there is no
%    upper or lower case in the Ethiopian languages,

%    For Ethiopian the characters |~|, |^|, |'|, |_|, |.| and |:|

%
%    The macro |\extrasethiop| will perform all the extra
%    definitions needed for the Ethiopian language, among them
%    the activation of the special characters. The macro
%    |\noextrasethiop| is supposed to cancel the actions of
%    |\extrasethiop|. However, |'| must \emph{not} be deactivated,
%    in order to make it usable in math mode.
%    \begin{macrocode}

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When the active characters appear in an environment where their
%    special behaviour is not wanted they should give an `expected'
%    result. Therefore we define shorthands at system level first.
%    If this is not done, \TeX\ goes into an infinite loop
%    as soon as an active character is followed by a |{|.
%    This is unexpected.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\declare@shorthand{system}{^}{\csname normal@char\string^\endcsname}
\declare@shorthand{system}{_}{\csname normal@char\string_\endcsname}
\declare@shorthand{system}{.}{\csname normal@char\string.\endcsname}
%    \end{macrocode}
%    The |'| must not be replaced by its normal char, because that
%    is converted to an active char in math mode. Then the
%    shorthand code is again executed and the system goes into an
%    infinite loop.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\declare@shorthand{system}{'}{\textormath

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    The shorthand |:| will not simply be replaced by
%    an ordinary character, because the associated
%    character indicates an interword space. Before and after
%    such a space we want to get a little stretchable
%    glue, so we have to insert it by hand. A little macro
%    will do that for us.
%
%    Just in case the user typed the spaces himself, they
%    will be automatically removed in order to catch the most
%    common typing errors. We have to use two different
%    methods: After the |:| we can simply ignore space tokens by
%    invoking |\ignorespaces|. Before the |:| we check if the last
%    skip in the horizontal list matches the skip generated by a space
%    token. We cannot directly check whether the last token was
%    indeed a space token, but this heuristic is sufficiently good.

%    \subsubsection*{Final Processing}
%
%    It is possible that a site might need to add some extra code to

%    \begin{macrocode}
\loadlocalcfg{ethiop}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Our last action is to make a note that the commands we have just
%    defined, will be executed by calling the macro |\selectlanguage|
%    at the beginning of the document.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\main@language{ethiop}
%    \end{macrocode}
%    Finally, the category code of \texttt{@} is reset to its original
%    value. The macrospace used by |\atcatcode| is freed.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\catcode`\@=\atcatcode \let\atcatcode\relax
%</code>
%    \end{macrocode}
% 
%    The style file \file{ethiop.sty} is provided to allow
%    |\usepackage{ethiop}| within a document's preamble.

%    We save the current category codes of the offending
