+\begin{abstract}The Mongolian \XD, or Horizontal Square Alphabet
+	was created in the 17th century. It is closely modelled after
+	Tibetan and was intended to revive the ideas behind the Phagsba
+	script. The script is rarely used today and can be mainly found
+	in religious inscriptions.
+
+	This software is still in its alpha state and released as a
+	preview.

+\section{Introduction}
+{\sf \XD\ for \LaTeX} is a package providing the \XD\
+script for \LaTeX\ users.
+The \XD\ script was developed in 1686 by the famous
+Mongolian monk and scholar Zanabazar. Modelled after
+the Tibetan script, the \XD\ script combines
+the phonemic repertoire of Mongolian, Sanskrit, and Tibetan.
+The script is not in wide use today; its
+usage is basically limited to religious texts, inscriptions on
+temples, etc.
+
+The logical construction of the script is two-dimensional, not
+linear. Basic consonants are combined with vowels and final consonants
+in a way similar to Tibetan; in fact, most of the letter shapes
+as well as the arrangement of the alphabet was heavily influenced
+by Tibetan.
+
+The basic consonant fills the major area of the symbol; if no
+vowel sign is added, the basic vowel {\em a} is assumed; if a
+vowel is added, then it is either placed on top of the character
+(in case of {\em i, \"a, o, \"o}) or in the lower third of the
+character box (in the cases of {\em \"u, u}). Long vowels are
+marked by a protruding tip of the right-side beam.
+
+
+\section{How to use the \XD\ package}
+This section describes which commands are needed for invoking the
+characters, and how special symbols are entered.
+
+\subsection{Declarations and Commands}
+In order to use the \XD\ script, the preamble of your document
+must contain the declaration \verb"\usepackage{mxd}". This
+is the only necessary step. The  command \verb"\mxd" switches
+to the \XD\ character set and text input commands.
+
+\subsection{Input Method}
+Within a group declared by \verb"\mxd", entering most
+of the basic characters is straightforward. Initial consonants
+are entered as such. Vowels are entered by
+using lowercase letters for back vowels and uppercase letters
+for front vowels: {\em o \"o u \"u} are entered as {\tt o O u U}.
+
+The following example shows how the words {\em xamu\g\ s\"adgil-t\"u}
+written in \XD\ {\mxd kamug sedgiltU} translate into a
+sequence of transliteration and input characters:
+\verb|xamug sedgiltU|.
+
+In order to show the construction of the \XD\ characters (for
+writing text books, etc.) one blind or dummy character {\mxd `}
+was created which does not appear in the original alphabet.
+
+The symbols used for
+spelling Sanskrit and Tibetan are accessed by control sequences
+in the form of \verb"\sXX" where \verb"\s" stands for \XD\
+and {\tt XX} has to be replaced by a one-, two- or three-letter
+combination found in the encoding table.
+
+\subsection{Script Styles}
+The following sequence shows how the \XD\ alphabet is arranged
+as shown in Mongolian block prints of the 17th century:
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{verbatim}
+{\mxd \Large \noindent%
+\sA. namo\sg{}uruma no\$aya. 'a'a-'i'i-'e'e-'U\\
+'U-'u'u-'o'o-'O'O-'a'a.~gakanga. zacanya. da\\
+tana.bapama. yaralawa. shasa{}ha\sks{}.T\sth\sdd\sdh\sdn.\\
+Xq@. \sg{}).j\sjh\sds. \sD\sDH. \sB\sBH. \sri\sri-\sli\sli-.}
+\end{verbatim}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+There is a total of four script styles available: a normal and a
+boldface variant which are accompanied by a {\em wood block} script
+style which introduces tiny irregularities in lengths and angles.
+
+
+\subsubsection{{\em Normal} Script Example}
+
+The normal script is selected by default when switching to \XD. No
+additional font command is necessary.
+
+{\mxd \Large \noindent%
+\sA. namo\sg{}uruma no\$aya. 'a'a-'i'i-'e'e-'U\\
+'U-'u'u-'o'o-'O'O-'a'a.~gakanga. zacanya. da\\

+Xq@. \sg{}).j\sjh\sds. \sD\sDH. \sB\sBH. \sri\sri-\sli\sli-.}
+
+
+
+\subsubsection{{\em Bold} Script Example}
+
+{\em Bold} script is selected via \verb|\bfseries|:
+
+{\mxd \bfseries \Large \noindent%
+\sA. namo\sg{}uruma no\$aya. 'a'a-'i'i-'e'e-'U\\
+'U-'u'u-'o'o-'O'O-'a'a. gakanga. zacanya. da\\

+Xq@. \sg{}).j\sjh\sds. \sD\sDH. \sB\sBH. \sri\sri-\sli\sli-.}
+
+
+\subsubsection{{\em Wood} Script Example}
+
+The {\em Wood} scripts simulate the small irregularities of old
+block prints; in \LaTeXe\ terms, they are considered as an 
+\verb|\itshape|, hence {\em Wood} script is selected via
+\verb|\itshape|:
+
+{\mxd \Large \itshape \noindent%
+\sA. namo\sg{}uruma no\$aya. 'a'a-'i'i-'e'e-'U\\
+'U-'u'u-'o'o-'O'O-'a'a. gakanga. zacanya. da\\
+tana.bapama. yaralawa. shasa|ha\sks{}.T\sth\sdd\sdh\sdn.\\
+Xq@. \sg{}).j\sjh\sds. \sD\sDH. \sB\sBH. \sri\sri-\sli\sli-.}
+
+
+\subsubsection{{\em Wood Bold} Script Example}
+
+{\em Wood Bold} script is selected via \verb|\bfseries\itshape|:
+
+{\mxd \bfseries \itshape \Large \noindent%
+\sA. namo\sg{}uruma no\$aya. 'a'a-'i'i-'e'e-'U\\

+
+\section{LMX Encoding}
+
+The characters in the \XD\ package are arranged according to the
+LMX encoding (Local Mongolian Xewtee) as shown in table~\ref{table}.
+Please note that some the code positions used for Sanskrit
+transliterations have been defined, but a glyph is not yet
+provided.

+\section{Desiderata}
+The package in its present stage is not complete.
+Some of the letter shapes still need a bit of refinement, and
+some of the rarer letters are currently not yet available.
+Furthermore, the unification process of Tibetan, Soyombo and \XD\
+hasn't begun yet---please be aware the the LMX encoding used here is
+not frozen yet.
+
+The input method works but is a bit clumsy to use; an input preprocessor
+translating properly spelled Mongolian into the \XD\ equivalent
+waits to be developed and implemented. This will happen in a similar
+manner as has been done in the Tibetan package by the same author.
+
+Comments and suggestions are highly appreciated and should be
+directed to the author of these lines at \verb"corff@zedat.fu-berlin.de".
