It has been tested on TeX Live 2021. + +# Installation +If your TeX distribution does not contain the package, you can install it manually by copying the files `hamnosys.sty` and `HamNoSysUnicode.ttf` from this repository. To install it locally for a single project, copy the files into the root directory of your TeX project. To install it globally, copy the files into a `hamnosys/` subdirectory in the appropriate location in your TeX installation. To generate the documentation, compile `hamnosys.dtx` using XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. + +To use HamNoSys in other parts of your operating system and for a wider range of input methods, see the [HamNoSys Software Package](https://doi.org/10.25592/uhhfdm.9724). + +# Usage +The package provides three methods of entering HamNoSys symbols: +1. Direct input of HamNoSys symbols as Unicode characters. As HamNoSys symbols can only be displayed by the HamNoSys font, you must either + 1. explicitly switch fonts using `\texthamnosys{}` or `\hamnosysfont`, or + 2. use the `autofont` package option (XeTeX only). +2. Listing HamNoSys symbol names inside the command `\hamnosys{}`. +3. Using the commands that have been defined for each individual HamNoSys symbol. + +For more details, read hamnosys.pdf (English) or [project note AP04-2021-02](https://doi.org/10.25592/uhhfdm.9637) of the DGS corpus project (English and German). + +# Licence & Copyright +Copyright (C) 2021 Universität Hamburg + +Created by Marc Schulder, Thomas Hanke + +This work may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the [LaTeX Project Public License](http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt), either version 1.3c of this license or (at your option) any later version. + +This work has the LPPL maintenance status `maintained'. + +The Current Maintainer of this work is Marc Schulder. + +This work consists of the files hamnosys.dtx, hamnosys.ins, +HamNoSysUnicode.ttf, README.md and the derived files +hamnosys.sty, hamnosys.pdf and hamnosys.bib.
