+PURPOSE
+
+This bundle of source METAFONT files, PostScript fonts and LaTeX files is an
+experimental work for typesetting in Coptic language.
+
+Some solutions and macros derive from Cristiano Pulone.
+
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+The installation process is a little hacker like, but whoever uses this package
+is a volunteer in experimenting it. Therefore s/he must be familiar with
+his/her TeX system installation and directory structure. I assume you are
+working with a modern installation and that it is compliant with the TeX
+Directory System (TDS). Independent from the platform and operating system you
+are using, you should have at least two more-or-less identical directory
+structures, one platform wide and one user dependent. Generally the system wide
+one is rooted in some place such as /user/share/texmf or C:\texmf; the user
+dependent structure should be rooted in ~/texmf or in C:\localtexmf. These
+roots are just examples; they may vary from installation to installation, but
+the important point is that there is at least two roots from which spring up
+the two trees of TeX directories. I'd suggest you to use the local/user tree.
+This structure very often does not contain all the branches and leaves of the
+system wide tree, so it may be necessary to add directories and subdirectories
+by hand simply by mimicking the system wide structure. In the following I use
+the UNIX syntax for directories and I assume that .../ stands for whatever
+precedes the following directory name in the particular directory tree of your
+choice.
+
+Put copthyph.tex in .../tex/generic/config and be sure to have in this
+directory also the file language.dat. Edit the latter file by adding this
+line:
+
+coptic copthyph.tex
+
+(I suggest to place it in alphabetical order)
+
+Put the *.mf files in .../fonts/source/local/coptic; put the *.tfm files in
+.../fonts/tfm/local/coptic; put the *.pfb files in
+.../fonts/type1/local/coptic; put the *.sty and *.fd files, testcop.tex and
+testcopOK.pdf in .../tex/latex/local/coptic; if you like the idea you can save
+this file README in .../doc/tex/latex/local/coptic. It might be a good
+idea, especially for keeping at hand the mappings and ligatures for typesetting
+Coptic text with a Latin keyboard.
+
+At this point refresh the file name data base; the system command might be
+texhash or you might need to click on a Option Wizard button depending on your
+installation.
+
+Refresh the psfonts.map file; for this task it's possible  that yopu
+need to locate and configure an updmap.cfg file before recreating the
+psfonts.map file, but this depends on your installation. Before
+refreshing the psfonts.map file you should add the following two lines
+
+copti TeX-copti <copti.pfb
+copto TeX-copto <copto.pfb
+
+to a file, be it and existing file where your local and personal
+postscript fonts are listed or a new file that you may name coptic.map;
+in the latter case you have to add this file name to the updmap.cfg
+file before refreshing the system wide psfonts.map file.
+
+Some TeX distributions resort to a .../fontname/special.map file where
+for each font name the directory and subdirectory are listed where the
+tfm and pk files should be moved by the local programs dedicated to the
+automatic creation of these files. If your system uses such special.map
+file I suggest you add these two lines
+
+copto       local       coptic
+copti       local       coptic
+
+to a local copy of special.map ("local copy" means the one that is in the
+local tree; if there is none, copy the one in the system wide tree to the local
+tree and edit the latter one).
+
+Now you need to recreate format files at least for latex and pdflatex;
+check your installation characteristics, because since the beginning of
+2004 the official motor for TeX related material is e-TeX and its
+initializing versions, while modern installations dating before 2004
+still use TeX. If you use MiKTeX the MiKTeX Options wizard is
+compatible with the inner workings and you don't have to fear any
+trouble. Some simpler installations might have a command-line texconfig
+command that does the whole work for you, but some others are so
+difficult to configure that may be you have to reinstall the whole
+system; it happened to me with the TeXlive distribution, but probably I
+did not read the instructions carefully enough... In any case you have
+to recreate the format files in order to exploit the facilities offered
+by the Coptic hyphenation patterns. Remember, though, that they are
+experimental; they probably do an acceptable job, but they are very far
+away from perfection.
+
+At this point you should be ready to test your installation. If you latex
+testcop.tex you should verify that the run is executed without errors; your dvi
+previewer should let you preview the output, keeping in mind that on its first
+run it will spend a few seconds for generating the pk files according to your
+system configuration.
+
+You should test also by running pdflatex on testcop.tex and preview the result
+with your favorite pdf document viewer; this program should let you verify if
+the type1 Coptic fonts have been effectively been loaded. Actually this
+information, should your viewer be incapable of displaying the font
+information, is available at the end of the textcop.log file where the loaded
+fonts are listed; if there appears the indication copto.pfb everything is OK;
+if there is copto.pk or copto.600pk, this means that the psfonts.map file has
+not been generated correctly; review your steps and check with your TeX
+installation idiosyncrasies for what concerns font maps; some modern
+installations that do not belong to the last generation require the listing of
+several map files within the configuration files of dvips, of pdftex, and of
+dvipdfm. In case edit these configuration files accordingly.
+
+If your dvi and pdf output is identical to the one contained in testcopOK.pdf
+then you probably successfully installed all the parts of this bundle.
+
+
+MAPPINGS AND LIGATURES
+
+I am not aware of the existence of any keyboard driver under any operating
+system that allows direct keying of Coptic characters. I am aware that there is
+a group working on the definition of a Coptic Standard Character Code (CSCC);
+information is available at the internet address
+
+http://www.copticchurch.net/coptic_fonts/
+
+This group is also producing several variants in ttf format.
+
+I did not chose to follow the indications set forth by this group for several
+reasons:
+
+1) I started with the fonts created by Serge Rosmorduc that were not complying
+with the proposed standard;
+
+2) I decided to stick to the first 128 positions of the ANSI table, so as to
+minimize the TeX and LaTeX related material and as to avoid the necessity of an
+input encoding;
+
+3) the main application of Rosmorduc fonts, I assumed, was for philological
+works, therefore I omitted the arabic numbers and many if not all punctuation
+marks altogether; this means that such signs, if necessary, should be typeset
+with regular Latin fonts.
+
+May be my choices are wrong, but let's not forget this work is at an
+experimental stage, possibly even a pre-alpha one; may be in a future release I
+might change mind. Nevertheless since it is at a usable stage, I decided to
+make it available to the Coptic philologists who are using LaTeX.
+
+The idea is that one should be capable of typesetting Coptic text using a Latin
+keyboard. As far as I know the only macro variant that is difficult to typeset
+with a US keyboard is \° (requested by Cristiano Pulone); it is true that the
+"degree" symbol appears in most European keyboards, but in case, the alias
+command \0 has been devised that produces the same result.
+
+The different lower and upper case Coptic glyphs are obtained with the
+following Latin keys; some glyphs are obtained by a sequence of two Latin keys.

+
+Notice the following:
+
+1) \' is an accent macro; it can superimpose the grave accent over any letter.
+The apostrophe instead of the back tick was chosen because some keyboards miss
+the latter key. At the same time apparently the acute accent is not used
+except, perhaps, for marking the tonic accent in grammars and the like; it is
+possible that in the future a true acute accent and its macro will be
+introduced, but at this stage it is not considered essential. At the same time
+the sequences \'m and \'n do not behave as accent macros generally do, but
+produce directly the accented glyphs (where the accent is not centered but is
+at the left margin of the letter box) and do not  block of the hyphenation
+mechanism
+
+2) Several glyphs are obtained with a ligature mechanism that involves two
+keystrokes; there are also some alternative choices. The hyphenation patterns
+behave correctly in their presence, whatever ligature is chosen.
+
+3) The hyphenation patterns were created by myself, a perfect ignorant of the
+Coptic language; I suppose they have to be corrected, but this will take time
+and the feedback from Coptic philologists; I suppose there aren't too many out
+there among LaTeX users; nevertheless...
+
+4) In spite of the presence of hyphenation patterns, the frequent use of
+diacritical marks (especially the over line mark) produces frequent
+unsatisfactory results, especially overfull lines.
+
+
+TYPESETTING MACROS
+
+The file coptic.sty contains the necessary definitions for inputting some
+special glyphs. The macros are the following:
+
+1) \H and \h replace the corresponding ligatures for Hori and hori; they are
+defined for compatibility with the copte.sty definitions by Rosmorduc; I
+immagine they are less comfortable than the corresponding ligatures also
+because they require at least a space after, or a couple of braces around, or a
+\   (\space) at the end of the word.
+
+2) \= over lines a single letter (without braces) or a group of letters
+enclosed in balanced braces; \=m\=t\=r is not the same as \={mtr}; in the
+latter case the letters are over lined by a continuous line, while in the
+former each letter has its own over line with a small gap (the inter letter
+space) interrupting the over lines.
+
+3) \" is the diaeresis or trema macro that superimposes a trema over any
+letter; with i and u it produces the accented glyph and this avoids the
+hyphenation interruption.
+
+4) \' accent macro for the grave accent.
+
+5) \° and its (intruding) alias \0 introduce a very short dash used to separate
+certain particles that carry a specific grammatical meaning in Coptic. It is a
+good point where to break a line, if necessary, and this is done in a
+completely automatic way. The ordinary key ":" (without quotes) produces the
+same short dash, but does not allow line breaking.
+
+6) \+ introduces a double short inclined dash between two parts of a word; line
+breaking is not allowed at this double dash, but the macro allows line breaking
+in the two partial words. The same sign can be introduced with the key "="
+(without quotes), but hyphenation is prohibited in both word segments.
+
+7) \trepun and its alias \threedots introduce a magic sign made up of three
+dots forming an equilateral triangle; the vertex is at the left and the base
+lies vertically at the right; if this sign is to be typeset by itself (which I
+suppose is always the case) it must be written \trepun\ .
+
+8) \trepund produces a similar glyph, but the triangle vertex is on the right.
+
+9) \sic is a macro that receives an argument over which the tiny sized word
+"sic" (without quotes) is superimposed.
+
+10) \dubbio with its English alias \dubious is a macro that receives one or more
+words as its argument; this string is over braced and a tiny sized question
+mark is centered on the top of the whole construction. Obviously the whole
+string cannot be hyphenated and may produce overfull (line) boxes. Since this
+material is quite tall, in order to maintain a decently homogeneous base line
+skip it is better to typeset the whole document with a \linespread value of
+1.4.
+
+10) \barretta under marks with a short vertical little bar the letter that
+constitutes its argument; generally it is a djandja but it can be any letter.
+
+11) \asterisco and its English alias \Asterisk (notice the capitalization)
+introduce a large centered asterisk.
+
+12) \Crux introduces a special symbol similar to a raised extra-deep ro with a
+bar across the descending stroke. An isolated \Crux sign must be typeset as
+\Crux\  .
+
+13) \crocetta with its Latin alias \crucicula introduces a small cross that is
+frequently found in liturgical Coptic texts.
+
+14) \iesus (to be written \iesus\  as an isolated symbol) is a shorthand
+abbreviation in liturgical Coptic texts replacing the name \textcoptic{Iecuc}.
+
+15) \xcr (to be written \xcr\  as an isolated symbol) is a shorthand
+abbreviation in liturgical Coptic texts.
+
+16) \xc (to be written \xc\  as an isolated symbol) is a shorthand abbreviation
+in liturgical Coptic texts replacing the name \textcoptic{Xrictoc}.
+
+17) \djois(to be written \djois\  as an isolated symbol) is a shorthand
+abbreviation in liturgical Coptic texts replacing the name \textcoptic{Djois}.
+
+It is possible that in the future more abbreviations of "nomina sacra" are
+introduced, but this requires feedback from the Coptic philologists out there.
+
+Most important of all there are the following specific commands for shifting
+from Latin to Coptic script and viceversa.
+
+1) \texcoptic typesets with Coptic fonts and coptic hyphenation its argument;
+the aliases \texcopte and \textcopto remain for backward compatibility
+
+2) \textlatin typesets in Latin characters its argument; hyphenation rules are
+not changed; in order to use the correct Latin encoding it is necessary that
+the package coptic.sty is not loaded before another package that changes the
+default font encoding; coptic.sty memorizes the encoding in force at the moment
+it is loaded and that encoding is assumed to be one of the Latin encodings,
+such as OT1 or T1; should the whole document be typeset with the main language
+being Greek or Russian, \textlatin will typeset its argument respectively with
+the Greek or the Cyrillic alphabet if coptic.sty is loaded after a language
+selection such as, for example, \selectlanguage{greek}.
+
+3) \begin{coptic} ... \end{coptic} is an environment where Coptic text may be
+introduced that shall be typeset with the Coptic font and hyphenation. For
+backward compatibility this environment may be called also copte or copto.
+
+4) Within the scope of \textcoptic or the environment coptic commands such as
+\textit or \textsl keep their meaning, although both resort to the same
+inclined Coptic font.
+
+IMPORTANT REMARK
+
+There is no babel Coptic language definition file, at least for now. When
+the Coptic language is invoked only its alphabet and its hyphenation rules are
+used, but it is not the same as specifying a coptic option to the babel
+package; this means that commands such as \selectlanguage{coptic} DO NOT WORK.
+
+CONCLUSION
+
+I will not maintain the files of this bundle but I may add more glyphs to the
+fonts and or add more macros or new files. I do not pretend to be the only one
+who has the privilege of controlling the development of this bundle.
+
+There are many things that remain to be done; a non exhaustive list is the
+following:
+
+1) Hyphenation patterns are complete in the sense that they include all the
+couples of any two letters of the Coptic alphabet, but they are far from exact;
+many combinations never appear in real Coptic texts, and I suppose many of the
+remaining meaningful ones are wrong. Feedback from the Coptic philologists is
+needed.
+
+2) More magic signs and more nomina sacra are required.
+
+3) The fonts themselves require fine tuning with proper kerning information; at
+the present stage this is almost totally missing.
+
+4) Many  macros for typesetting real philological marks may be borrowed from
+the extension package teubenr.sty, but since they are meant for typesetting
+of marked up Greek texts, the philological marks may not be adequate for the
+Coptic fonts.
+
+So, you see, there is a lot to be done, and the above list is just the
+beginning. Nevertheless this bundle is already usable and the brave ones who
+will try it might suggest some corrections and improvements. In this case write
+e-mail messages to
+
+claudio.beccari@polito.it.
+
+Not necessarily I will acknowledge receipt of your message, but as much as I
+can, in my free time, I might set your suggestions on the TO-DO list, and maybe
+I might even release further versions of this bundle with your suggestions
+really implemented. If somebody wants to take over, just let me know: you are
+welcome.
