-\section{Welcome to \LaTeXNews~6}
-This issue of \emph{\LaTeXNews} accompanies the sixth release of the
-new standard \LaTeX{}, \LaTeXe.
-
-\section{Mono-case file names}
-Previously \LaTeX\ has used some files with `mixed-case' file names
-such as \texttt{T1cmr.fd} and \texttt{T1enc.def}.
-
-These file names cause problems on some systems (in particular they
-are illegal on the ISO 9660 CDROM format) and so in this release
-all file names have been made lowercase (for example
-\texttt{t1cmr.fd} and \texttt{t1enc.def}).
-
-This change should \emph{not} affect any document. Within \LaTeX,
-encodings still have the usual uppercase names in uses such as
-\verb|\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}| and \verb|\fontencoding{T1}|.
-\LaTeX\ will automatically convert to the lowercase form while
-constructing the file name.
-\LaTeX\ will input the `fd' file under the old name if it fails to
-find the file with the new name, so existing collections of fd files
-should still work with this new release.
-
-The change \emph{does} affect the configuration files that may be used
-to make the \LaTeX\ format with initex. For example, the file
-\texttt{fonttext.ltx} previously specified \verb|\input{T1cmr.fd}|.
-It now has \verb|\input{t1cmr.fd}|.
-If you use a local file \texttt{fonttext.cfg}
-you will need to make similar changes, as \verb|\input{T1cmr.fd}|
-will not work as \texttt{T1cmr.fd} is no longer in the distribution.
-
-The files affected by this change all have names of the form
-\verb|*.fd| or \verb|*enc.def|.
-
-\section{Another input encoding}
-Thanks to work by S\o ren Sandmann, the \textsf{inputenc} package now
-supports the IBM codepage~865 used in Scandinavia.
-
-\section{Better user-defined math display environments}
-Suppose that you want to define an environment for displaying text
-that is numbered as an equation. A straightforward way to do this is
-as follows:
-\begin{verbatim}
- \newenvironment{texteqn}
- {\begin{equation}
- \begin{minipage}{0.9\linewidth}}
- {\end{minipage}
- \end{equation}}
-\end{verbatim}
-However, if you have tried this then you will probably have noticed
-that it does not work perfectly when used in the middle of a paragraph
-because an inter-word space appears at the beginning of the first
-line after the environment.
-
-There is now an extra command (with a very long name) available that
-you can use to avoid this problem; it should be inserted as shown here:
-\begin{verbatim}
- \newenvironment{texteqn}
- {\begin{equation}
- \begin{minipage}{0.9\linewidth}}
- {\end{minipage}
- \end{equation}
- \ignorespacesafterend}
-\end{verbatim}
-
-\section{Docstrip improvements}
-The \textsf{docstrip} program that is used to unpack the \LaTeX\
-sources has undergone further development. The new version should be
-able to process all old `batchfiles' but it allows a simpler syntax in
-new `batchfiles' (no need to define \verb|\def\batchfile{|\ldots).
-
-It also allows `target' directories to be specified when writing
-files. This directory support is disabled by default unless activated
-in a local \texttt{docstrip.cfg} configuration file.
-See \texttt{docstrip.dtx} for details.
-
-\section{AMS \LaTeX\ update}
-Since the last \LaTeX\ release in June, the American Mathematical
-Society have re-issued the `AMS\LaTeX' classes and packages, fixing
-several reported problems.
-
-\section{Graphics package update}
-The \LaTeX\ color and graphics packages have been updated slightly,
-principally to support more dvi drivers, see the readme file in the
-\textsf{graphics} distribution.
-
-\section{EC Fonts released}
-The first release of the Extended Computer Modern fonts has just been
-made. (In January 1997.)
-
-This release of \LaTeX\ does \emph{not} default to these `ec' fonts
-as its T1 encoded fonts. By default it will
-use the `dc' fonts if the T1 encoding is requested.
-
-As noted in \texttt{install.txt} you may run \TeX\ on the install file
-\texttt{ec.ins} \emph{after} unpacking the base distribution but
-\emph{before} making the \LaTeX\ format. This will produce
-suitable `fd' files making \LaTeX\ (including, for the first time, the
-\textsf{slides} class) use the `ec' fonts as the default T1 encoded
-font set.
