+This is the file pinyin.txt of the CJK macro package ver. 4.6.0
+(11-Aug-2005).
+
+pinyin.sty
+----------
+
+This style file (which can be also used under plain TeX) enables the input
+of pinyin syllables with tones.
+
+Say
+
+ \usepackage{pinyin}
+
+to load all pinyin macros under LaTeX2e; say `\input pinyin.sty' under plain
+TeX.
+
+An example explains best how to input pinyin:
+
+ \Wo3 \hen3 \xi3\huan1 \chi1 \Zhong1\guo2 \cai4.
+
+Note there is no fifth tone marker in pinyin (Zhuyinfuhao uses a dot to
+indicate the fifth tone; on the other hand no marker is used for the first
+tone). Nevertheless you can say e.g., \ne5 to get the syllable `ne' without a
+tone.
+
+
+There are some special cases:
+
+ o use `v' instead of `u umlaut' in pinyin syllables (these are \lv,
+ \lve, \nv, \nve and its uppercase forms). Example:
+
+ \nv3'\er2 daughter
+
+ The appearance of u umlaut with additional tone markers has been
+ tested with the standard cm, ec, and PostScript fonts.
+
+ o use \Long and \LONG instead of \long and \Long (which you would
+ expect): \long is a very important internal TeX command. Many
+ packages would fail if we redefined \long.
+
+
+Problems:
+
+ The following macros are redefined if you load pinyin.sty:
+
+ \a, \chi, \cong, \ge, \hang, \le, \min, \mu, \ne, \ni, \nu, \o, \pi,
+ \Pi, \Re, \tan, \xi, \Xi.
+
+ They are available as \PY... (\PYchi, \PYcong, etc.).
+
+ If this is not enough, you can say \PYdeactivate to restore the original
+ definitions (and reactivate these syllables with \PYactivate).
