+MAKE-RULES
+
+This package contains the following:
+
+1. A Perl script to transform a description of a (language-specific)
+alphabet into a set of sorting rules for xindy. Alphabets for some languages
+are also provided.
+
+2. A Perl script to generate sets of rules which are needed in combination
+with the LaTeX `inputenc' package.
+
+Requirements:
+- TeX and LaTeX
+- Perl 5 or higher
+- GNU make or an equivalent `make' program
+- If your favourite character set is not yet supported: iconv
+
+The sorting rules for each language are described in files
+alphabets/*/*.pl. You can check them and change them if necessary.
+
+======================================================================
+
+This is a modified release of the xindy make-rules package.
+The modifications were done to integrate it into this overall xindy
+source distribution and adapt it to autoconf/automake.
+
+make-rules was written by Thomas Henlich <thenlich _AT_ web.de>, with
+contributions by Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer _AT_ hut.fi>.
+The modifications were written by Gour <list _AT_ atmarama.org>.
+
+This release is based on a snapshot that was taken around January 14,
+2004. The modifications are only available in this distribution, they
+are not (yet) committed to CVS. That's partly because we need to merge
+them in, make-rules has changed a bit in CVS.
+
+======================================================================
+
+All autoconf/automake adaptions are released under
+GPL version 2, or later.
