+\section{What is \Chinasym ?}
+
+It is a \LaTeX2e - package to produce Chinese calendar symbols
+of the old Chinese lunisolar calendar. In addition you can use
+a new fontshape {\BLOCK \char92 BLOCK}, symbolic letters
+\symA $\ldots$ \symZ , the phases of the Moon
+\MoonPha{1}\MoonPha{2}\MoonPha{3}\MoonPha{4}
+and some special symbols (\Greenpoint\Telephone$\ldots$).
+
+\section{How to use the \Chinasym\/ package?}
+
+First and foremost you've got to copy the following files
+\begin{itemize}
+\item {\sc china10.mf, chinasym.add, chinasym.alf, chinasym.ele,
+ chinasym.num, chinasym.sbl and chinasym.sta}
+ into your Metafont-directory
+ \verb/(\emtex\mfinput\china)/
+\item {\sc china2e.sty} into your Style-directory
+ \verb/(\emtex\texinput\china)/ and
+\item {\sc china10.tfm} into your Tfm-directory
+ \verb/(\emtex\tfm\china)/.
+\end{itemize}
+Note, however, that the paths may be different in your
+\LaTeX2e ~implementation
+(Em\TeX ~for {\sc MS-DOS}, {\sf web2c} for {\sc UNIX} etc.).
+\LaTeX2e ~is absolutely required, if you want to use \Chinasym,
+which doesn't run with the {\bf ancient} \LaTeX 209. \\
+
+Now you can call this package like seen in the example:
+\begin{verbatim}
+ \documentclass[12pt]{article}
+ \usepackage{china2e} %%% to include china2e.sty
+ \begin{document} ... \end{document}
+\end{verbatim}
+Chinese characters and symbols will appear now in the current size
+and won't change the current shape. Of course you can input
+\verb/{\Huge /{\it chinese symbol}\verb/ }/ to manage a greater
+Chinese calendar symbol.\\
+
+Well, the package is ready, so let's get down to work.\\
+
+\section{I/O List of the Chinese Characters}
+
+The following inputs you can use in textmode.\\
+In mathmode you've
+got to type in \verb/$ \mbox{ / {\it input} \verb/ } $/.
+

+
+You can construct a Chinese data with the characters described before,
+e.g. the historic day of taking over
+Hong Kong from the British Empire to the Chinese Republic:\\
+
+(Chinese calendar: the year of Fire and Ox, $5^{th}$ month, $27^{th}$ day)\\
+\verb/\AstrEle{4}\TerrEle{2}\Year\Five\Month\Twenty\Seven\Day/\\
+\hspace*{1in}\AstrEle{4}\TerrEle{2}\Year\Five\Month\Twenty\Seven\Day
+
+(Gregorian calendar: the $1997^{th}$ year, $7^{th}$ month, $1^{st}$ day)\\
+\verb/\Thousand\Nine\Hundred\Ninety\Seven\Year\Seven\Month\One\Day/\\
+\hspace*{1in}\Thousand\Nine\Hundred\Ninety\Seven\Year\Seven\Month\One\Day\\
+
+I suppose that you haven't any problem with the
+Chinese computation of time!\\
+Otherwise please see chapter~\ref{comp} on page~\pageref{comp}.

+\end{tabbing}
+
+With the command \verb/\BLOCK/ you can switch
+into {\BLOCK BLOCK}{\it shape}:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+{\BLOCK A PROBLEM FOR LUNAR CALENDARS ARISES FROM THE FACT THAT THERE
+ ARE NOT EXACTLY 12 SYNODIC PERIODS IN THE SOLAR YEAR.
+ SO EVERY YEAR, THE MONTHS START ROUGHLY 11 DAYS EARLIER.
+ AN EXTRA ('INTERCALARY') MONTH IS ADDED TO EACH THIRD YEAR TO BRING
+ THE LUNAR CALENDAR BACK INTO SYNCHRONY WITH THE YEAR.}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+{\BLOCK A PROBLEM FOR LUNAR CALENDARS ARISES FROM THE FACT THAT THERE

+ SO EVERY YEAR, THE MONTHS START ROUGHLY 11 DAYS EARLIER.
+ AN EXTRA ('INTERCALARY') MONTH IS ADDED TO EACH THIRD YEAR TO BRING
+ THE LUNAR CALENDAR BACK INTO SYNCHRONY WITH THE YEAR.}\\
+
+Here is another example for German \Chinasym ~users:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+{\BLOCK EINE GUTE STENOTYPISTIN REINIGT T\AE GLICH DIE TYPEN IHRER
+ MASCHINE. WENN M\OE GLICH, TUT SIE DAS ST\UE NDLICH.}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+{\BLOCK EINE GUTE STENOTYPISTIN REINIGT T\AE GLICH DIE TYPEN IHRER
+ MASCHINE. WENN M\OE GLICH, TUT SIE DAS ST\UE NDLICH.}\\
+
+Note that only upper case letters, numbers and stops are tolerated
+in the {\BLOCK BLOCK}-environment.
+
+\section{Some new math-symbols}
+
+A common difficulty for students of mathematics and physics is
+to produce the symbols of number areas (Integer, Real, Complex$\ldots$).\\
+
+Here is the final solution of this problem! Why not type in simply
+the adequate key words? See this example:
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+ \{ 0, 1, 2, 3\ldots \} & \in & \Natural \\
+ \{ \ldots -2, -1, 0, 1\ldots \} & \in & \Integer \\
+ \{ 3.1415926 \} & \in & \Rational \\
+ \{ \pi \} & \in & \Real \\
+ \{ e^{i\pi /2} \} & \in & \Complex
+\end{eqnarray*}
+\end{verbatim}
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+ \{ 0, 1, 2, 3\ldots \} & \in & \Natural \\
+ \{ \ldots -2, -1, 0, 1\ldots \} & \in & \Integer \\
+ \{ 3.1415926 \} & \in & \Rational \\
+ \{ \pi \} & \in & \Real \\
+ \{ e^{i\pi /2} \} & \in & \Complex
+\end{eqnarray*}
+
+Here is another example in boldmath mode:
+\begin{verbatim}
+\boldmath
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+ \{ 0, 1, 2, 3\ldots \} & \in & \NATURAL \\
+ \{ \ldots -2, -1, 0, 1\ldots \} & \in & \INTEGER \\
+ \{ 3.1415926 \} & \in & \RATIONAL \\
+ \{ \pi \} & \in & \REAL \\
+ \{ e^{i\pi /2} \} & \in & \COMPLEX
+\end{eqnarray*}
+\unboldmath
+\end{verbatim}
+\boldmath
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+ \{ 0, 1, 2, 3\ldots \} & \in & \NATURAL \\
+ \{ \ldots -2, -1, 0, 1\ldots \} & \in & \INTEGER \\
+ \{ 3.1415926 \} & \in & \RATIONAL \\
+ \{ \pi \} & \in & \REAL \\
+ \{ e^{i\pi /2} \} & \in & \COMPLEX
+\end{eqnarray*}
+\unboldmath
+
+The boldmath version of \verb/\Natural/ is \verb/\NATURAL/,
+ of \verb/\Integer/ is \verb/\INTEGER/ etc.~pp.\\
+
+These mathematical signs ain't available in text mode.
+You can handle them there with \verb/$/ {\it math command} \verb/$/.
+To use the symbols \symA $\ldots$ \symZ ~in text mode, the commands
+\verb/\symA ... \symZ/ ~are disposable.\\

+\section{The Chinese computation of time \Thousand\Year\Book\label{comp}}
+
+The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar one, which is founded on both
+astronomical phenomenons -- the appearing of New Moon and
+the Sun running through the codiac signs.\\
+
+Every Chinese year starts with the New Moon in the codiac sign {\sc Rat}
+\TerrEle{1}~($\lambda_{\odot}=300^{o}\ldots 330^{o}$).\\
+That is the time between January~$20^{th}$ and February~$19^{th}$.
+Just every New Moon will start a new month.\\
+
+In case of two New Moons during one codiac sign, the first of them
+will start a leap month (called with the name of the month before and
+the appendix $jun$ \Leap\Month ).\\

+Every Chinese year is characterized by an astral and a terrestrial element.
+The first year of the first cycle was in 2637{\sc bc}.\\
+The names of Chinese years in a cycle of 60 you can take out of the
+table above (e.g. the year No. 14 = \verb/AstrEle{4}\TerrEle{2}/).\\
+
+1997 is the year No. 14 of the cycle No. 78 (14/78) =
+\AstrEle{4}\TerrEle{2} \\
+Hence is $1998 = (15/78)$~\AstrEle{5}\TerrEle{3},
+ $1999 = (16/78)$~\AstrEle{6}\TerrEle{4} and
+ $2000 = (17/78)$~\AstrEle{7}\TerrEle{5} $\ldots$ \\

+\section{Summa summarum}
+
+By the way -- this is a \Chinasym ~introduction and not a manual of
+Chinese counting of time!
+If you want to learn more about the Chinese chronology, please read
+the subject literature!\\
+
+I hope you are able now, to use the \Chinasym ~font, and to type out all
+its characters. Of course these characteres can be used both in
+headlines ($\nearrow$~headline of section \ref{comp})
+and also in footnotes
+ \footnote{Here come \Chinasym ~symbols:
+ \Greenpoint\MoonPha{2}{\uchr103}\Postbox\Euro,\\
+ your Chinese cook knows more of them -
