+ README for the `catcodes' bundle
+ (C) Uwe Lueck 2012/09/20
+
+The `catcodes' bundle deals with category code switching.
+The contained packages should work with LaTeX as well as without
+(based on the `plainpkg' package). The important cases of category
+codes are
+(a) "private letters" for internal package commands and
+(b) active characters.
+`stacklet.sty' deals with (a), `actcodes.sty' with (b).
+There also is
+(c) `catchdq.sty', an application of (b),
+for automatic insertion of typographical double quotes
+when the user only enters ASCII double quotes. What is
+"typographical" differs between languages, the new `langcode'
+package completes `catchdq''s functionality in this respect.
+
+The documentation for the three package files is contained
+in the file `catcodes.pdf'.
+
+REQUIRED PACKAGES: plainpkg, stacklet
+
+RELATED PACKAGES: catoptions, pcatcode (amsrefs), texapi, csquotes
+
+KEYWORDs: macro programming, category codes, private letters,
+ active characters, double quotes
+
+The package files `actcodes.sty', `catchdq.sty', and
+`stacklet.sty', together with the documentation files
+`catcodes.pdf' and `catcodes.tex', can be redistributed and/or

+experimental.
