+CHANGES.TXT 23.10.2003
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ ArabTeX Version 3
+ =================
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ NOTE: Version management:
+
+ - We distinguish major versions "m.00", minor versions "m.nn-"
+ with nn > 0, and patch versions "m.nnx" where "x" is a letter.
+
+ - to update from an older major version: reinstall completely.
+
+ - to update from an older minor version: replace the contents of
+ "TEXINPUT" and, if so indicated, "REPORT". Replace the fonts
+ only if so indicated explicitly.
+
+ - to update to a newer patch version: replace the ASCII file
+ "apatch.sty" and, if you use Hebrew, "hepatch.sty". These files
+ are distributed as unpacked text files, and will be applied
+ automatially whenever starting ArabTeX.
+
+ - Patch versions within the same minor version are cumulative, so
+ a newer patch will encompass all earlier versions.
+
+ - To back out from a patch version, replace "apatch.sty" by an
+ earlier version (within the same minor version only!) if still
+ locally available, or else edit out the current additions from
+ "apatch.sty" and, if applicable, "hepatch.sty" (save a copy
+ first!). Also please inform the author why you backed out.
+
+ - There is no provision to return gracefully to earlier minor or
+ even major versions. We can make them available on request, but
+ you should have good reasons, and there will be no support.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+23.10.2003: Version 3.11d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - In the Arabic document classes, the formatting of the table
+ of contents was improved. A strange bug was corrected.
+
+ - A storage leak was found which prevented the formatting of
+ longer documents, leading to 'save stack overflow'.
+
+ - A bug in the ligatures module was found which used to produce
+ bogus messages 'missing letter y in font xnsh14' and to
+ slightly interfere with correct vowelization.
+
+ - A bug in the output module was found which used to produce
+ bogus messages 'underfull vbox while \output was active'.
+ The fix might slightly influence page breaking.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - There is now limited support for Arabized LyX.
+ Since there are no 'italic', 'slanted', 'sanserif' etc. fonts
+ available for ArabTeX, all special font variants are presently
+ mapped into 'bold face'. This could be changed at the user's
+ request; please send any suggestions to the author.
+
+ - The messages in the LOG file are less verbose now.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+17.09.2003: Version 3.11c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Hebrew mode, a spurious 'shwa' on 'gimel' was fixed.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - Hebrew mode provides a new command \setjudarab to activate
+ an experimental Judaeo-Arabic mode. Input is supposed to be
+ Arabic in the standard transliteration encoding (other modes
+ might work by accident), output is an extended Hebrew writing
+ in the chosen Hebrew font, and the standard transliteration
+ when activated. Arabic vowels are presently not provided; the
+ Hebrew vowels work but are presumably of no use.
+
+ Caution: The new mode can be expected to contain errors. We
+ do not know the exact writing conventions, and have no access
+ to any relevant literature. Scholars in the field are urged
+ to contact the author. Comments and suggestions are invited.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+08.09.2003: Version 3.11b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the selection of fonts in Arabic and Hebrew mode has been
+ drastically changed, and several logical errors have been
+ eliminated. Some of the remaining bugs have been fixed.
+
+ - Hebrew Plain mode works again. To use it, download the new
+ version of 'hebtex.tex'(!), the Hebrew Plain driver. The
+ corrections cannot be handled by "apatch.sty" alone.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - ArabTeX now seems to cooperate with LyX in Arabic and Hebrew
+ mode.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+ - in case you are using the Hebrew Plain mode (and only then)
+ also download the new version of the driver module "hebtex.tex"
+ (not "hebtex.sty"!)
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+27.08.2003: Version 3.11a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the 'hanging heh' in Urdu mode has been fixed.
+
+ - the selection of fonts in Arabic and Hebrew mode has been
+ drastically changed, and several logical errors have been
+ eliminated. Hopefully there are not too many new bugs.
+
+ - Hebrew Plain mode should work again. If you are not directly
+ concerned, forget it; tests are going on. The necessary
+ corrections cannot be handled by "apatch.sty" alone, see the
+ remarks below.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+ - in case you are using the Hebrew Plain mode (and only then)
+ also download the new version of the driver module "hebtex.tex"
+ (not "hebtex.sty"!)
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+22.08.2002: Version 3.11
+
+ Status:
+
+ - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load
+ and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there
+ are some new files, and some have been extensively rewritten!
+ The functionality is supposed to be unchanged.
+
+ - Distribution and modification of ArabTeX is now governed by
+ the Latex Project Public License (see LPPL.TXT).
+
+ - We recommend installing of the fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ to obtain better quality of output. These fonts are now the
+ default; to revert to the old font versions use the command
+ "\oldarabfont".
+
+ New features:
+
+ - In Hebrew mode, all standard fonts available on CTAN are now
+ supported, including the possibility of generating vowel points
+ in \vocalize mode.
+
+ Bugs:
+
+ - Hebrew Plain TeX mode is currently broken.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - Download the contents of "TEXINPUT", and in case of any font
+ problems also "MFINPUT".
+
+ - In case of problems with old DVI files regenerate them; or else
+ download "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font "nash14".
+
+==========================================================================
+23.04.2003: Version 3.10k
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - some glitches in Farsi mode were fixed.
+
+ - in Uighuric mode, some transcriptions were missing.
+
+ - in Urdu mode, final 'wavy hah' is generated now.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - in Uighuric mode, <:s> produces 'sin' with three dots below.
+ <A> produces 'alif' with 'madda', so does <^A>.
+
+ - in Farsi mode and its descendants, 'kasra' on a double letter
+ will be positioned below the letter instead of below the
+ 'shadda' mark. This feature will later become an option.
+
+ - the internal test mode is less verbose. This need not concern
+ normal users.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+16.11.2002: Version 3.10j
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the handling of 'ayin' in Hebrew mode was improved.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+14.11.2002: Version 3.10i
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - "matres lectionis" in Hebrew work better.
+
+ - Version 3.10h was broken on some servers!
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+28.08.2002: Version 3.10h
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The math command \cap was broken.
+
+ - Line breaking of Roman insertions within Arabic mode seems to
+ work correctly now.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - There is formally a new language mode \setbalut for Balochy.
+ Presently it is mapped to \setpashto but will be extended as
+ soon as the exact writing rules are known.
+
+ - The command \cond #1{#2}{#3}\fi will expand to either #2 or #3
+ depending on the TeX conditional #1. It is nearly equivalent
+ to #1 #2\else #3\fi but may also be used in Arabic mode. The
+ command is skippable and fully expandable.
+
+ - \endinput may occur in Arabic mode.
+
+ - The input character <G> encodes Pashto 'gAf' with a ring. In
+ Farsi and Pashto mode, <g> produces Farsi 'gAf' with a stroke.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+16.06.2002: Version 3.10g
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Pashto mode, <.n> will produce 'noon' with a dot and a ring.
+ Some further Pashto codes can be found in Table 4.2.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+11.05.2002: Version 3.10f
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Persian mode, some bugs concerning 'hamze on he' were fixed.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+14.04.2002: Version 3.10e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in the standard Hebrew transcription, 'shwa' was missing.
+
+ - in Persian mode, 'hamze on he' is produced if required.
+
+ - in Hebrew mode using the 'hclassic' and 'hcaption' fonts, the
+ vowel points are generated differently to render better when
+ using T1 fonts.
+
+ - in CP1256 encoding, explicit 'shadda' works now correctly.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+07.03.2002: Version 3.10d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - In many of the non-standard encodings the handling of double
+ letters (implicit shadda or not) has been corrected.
+
+ - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart'
+ the handling of figure and table \captions has been improved.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - When using a local addition to ArabTeX together with a patch
+ version of ArabTeX, read the local addition by \input after
+ the command \begin{document}, not by an \usepackage command.
+ Otherwise a race condition occurs that could overwrite your
+ local additions.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+03.03.2002: Version 3.10c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The default language is Arabic again.
+
+ - The LaTeX commands \footnote, \footnotemark, and \footnotetext
+ in normal LTR LaTeX mode were broken in version 3.10b. Sorry!
+
+ - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart'
+ the environment 'tabular' works correctly.
+
+ - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart'
+ the command \tableofcontents works correctly.
+
+ - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart'
+ the commands \table and \figure may have a \caption.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart'
+ and *also* in normal LTR mode, within the \tabular environment
+ every row but the last must be terminated by \\, also if \hline
+ follows. The text of the error message has been improved.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - The Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart'
+ formerly required the use of the ArabTeX standard encoding for
+ correct functioning of generated section heads and the like.
+ This restriction was never noticed, and applies no more.
+
+ - Abjad numbers now also work with other input encodings.
+
+ - Within an Arabic environment the command \stdcode{some text}
+ accepts Arabic text in the ArabTeX standard encoding even if
+ otherwise some other encoding is in use. This may be useful
+ for local corrections.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+12.02.2002: Version 3.10b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The LaTeX commands \footnote, \footnotemark, and \footnotetext
+ now work correctly within Arabic environments, even if only
+ transliteration mode is active. The output mode (transliterate,
+ Arabic writing, or both) of Arabic inserts in the footnote text
+ is inherited from the main document if not explicitly switched
+ locally within the footnote text.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - Footnotes containing Arabic inserts might come out too high.
+ This may be prevented, at the risk of lines overlapping, by
+ \smash-ing the Arabic insert or even the complete footnote.
+
+ - Within transliteration mode hyphenation is only performed after
+ long vowels, thus \sloppy mode might be required. If the last
+ word of a line ends with a long vowel, a spurious hyphen will
+ appear. This is a bug; presently no fix is known!
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - The LaTeX footnote commands (see above) also work within the
+ Arabic document classes 'arabart', 'arabrep', and 'arabbook'.
+
+ - By default, or after the command \LRfootnotes, the footnotes
+ are positioned as in a Roman document, and the footnote text
+ is assumed to be Roman by default. Arabic inserts are produced
+ by \RL{ }.
+
+ - After the command \RLfootnotes, footnotes run from right to
+ left and the default language mode is Arabic. Roman inserts
+ are produced by \LR{ }.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+06.10.2001: Version 3.10a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - A few minor patches from 'v3.09' did not make it into 'v3.10'.
+
+ - The transliteration of '_h' was improved.
+
+ - Plain TeX mode now also uses fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ as the default.
+
+ - In Hebrew mode, 'cholem male' and vowels in contact now work
+ correctly.
+
+ - In Hebrew mode, footnotes containing Hebrew inserts now have
+ uniform baselines again.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - All patches are now handled by "apatch.sty".
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+17.09.2001: Version 3.10
+
+ Status:
+
+ - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load
+ and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there
+ are some new files, and some have been extensively rewritten!
+ The functionality is supposed to be unchanged.
+
+ - Distribution and modification of ArabTeX is now governed by
+ the Latex Project Public License (see LPPL.TXT).
+
+ - We recommend installing of the fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ to obtain better quality of output. These fonts are now the
+ default; to revert to the old font versions use the command
+ "\oldarabfont".
+
+ New features:
+
+ - In Hebrew mode, all standard fonts available on CTAN are now
+ supported, including the possibility of generating vowel points
+ in \vocalize mode.
+
+ Bugs:
+
+ - Presently none are known.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - Download the contents of "TEXINPUT", and in case of any font
+ problems also "MFINPUT".
+
+ - In case of problems with old DVI files regenerate them; or else
+ download "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font "nash14".
+
+==========================================================================
+13.05.2001: Version 3.09g
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - Some spurious spaces in the transliteration were fixed.
+
+ - \tabular within \center was broken by \RL{}.
+
+ - Hamza and `Ayn were broken in a \tabbing environment.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - The file "arabtds.zip" in the distribution, when available,
+ contains the ArabTeX package repacked according to the TDS
+ (TeX Directory Structure). To install the complete package,
+ PC Users of MikTeX and several other TeX distributions that
+ presuppose the TDS structure, should download this file only
+ (in binary mode!) and unpack it at the top level of their
+ local TEXMF tree. For other installations, moving around some
+ files or adjusting some access path might be required.
+
+ - Reminder: some TeX installations require a command "texhash"
+ or "texconfig" to activate a newly installed package.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+27.05.2000: Version 3.09f
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The LaTeX command \cdot works again.
+
+ - The LaTeX command \protect may appear in RL mode. It has no
+ visible effect.
+
+ - The vertical bar | has no function, but does no harm behind an
+ Arabic character that does not connect to the left.
+
+ - The behaviour of "wasla" in the transliteration was fixed.
+
+ - The vertical spacing of footnotes is no more influenced by \RL
+ insertions in the first line.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - Brackets [ and ] and parentheses ( and ) may be used within an
+ Arabic or Hebrew word to indicate optional parts; they do not
+ change the connection behaviour of the adjacent characters.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty" and "hepatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+05.04.2000: Version 3.09e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - to switch the transcription font say, e.g., \settransfont{\rm}.
+ \settransfont{rm} (forgetting the \) now also works, instead of
+ producing impressive garbage.
+
+ - an \RL{} insertion text may now begin with a space.
+
+ - footnotes containing \RL{} insertions have uniform baselines.
+
+ - the space command \ works within RL mode.
+
+ - \bf and \rm (for returning to normal) work within RL mode.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - within RL environments, \newcommand, \newenvironment, and \def
+ and their relatives may be used to define new control sequences
+ which have to expand to legal ArabTeX input; they will not be
+ visible outside of the environment (even if \gdef or \xdef is
+ used.) For a user defined command to be visible both outside
+ and inside RL mode, define it in LR mode and announce it to the
+ ArabTeX command processor by \allowarab.
+
+ - the new commands \shadda, \madda, \sukun in Arabic mode and the
+ commands \raphe, \dagesh, \mappiq in Hebrew mode will place the
+ corresponding diacritic on the preceding letter. In Hebrew mode
+ \maqqef will produce a connector, \abbr an abbreviation mark.
+
+ - A single hyphen will be invisible in the RL writing, but will
+ show up in the transcription; the adjacent letters will always
+ assume the connecting form, if it exists, even at the beginning
+ or the end of a word.
+
+ - any paragraph containing \RL{} insertions will now have uniform
+ baselines. The users might have to adjust \baselinestretch.
+
+ - RL insertions now also work for encodings like MacOS Arabic and
+ MacOS Hebrew that provide an RL space.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty"
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+18.03.2000: Version 3.09d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the transcription did not work correctly within a LaTeX tabbing
+ environment since this environment mungles the accent commands.
+ (We consider this a mis-feature in LaTeX!)
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty"
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+19.10.1999: Version 3.09c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - "\cap" for capitalisation of the transcription now works also
+ within section titles and in the table of contents.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty"
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+30.07.1999: Version 3.09b
+
+ Note: version 3.09a did not work.
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - In the Hebrew mode, "maqqef" now works with all fonts.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "hepatch.sty"
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+17.07.1999: Version 3.09
+
+ Status:
+
+ - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load
+ and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there
+ are some new files, and some have been extensively rewritten!
+ The functionality is supposed to be unchanged.
+
+ - We recommend installing of the fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ to obtain better quality of output. These fonts are now the
+ default; to revert to the old font versions use the command
+ "\oldarabfont".
+
+ New features:
+
+ - Many ArabTeX commands that used to be fragile in connection
+ with LaTeX are now robust.
+
+ - Within the LaTeX document classes "arabart", "arabrep", and
+ "arabbook" nearly all LaTeX environments are allowed also
+ within Arabic mode.
+
+ Recommendations:
+
+ - When typesetting Roman text with Arabic or Hebrew insertions, a
+ better result can usually be obtained by typesetting on a grid;
+ this can be accomplished by resetting the parameters \lineskip
+ to 0pt, \lineskiplimit to -30pt, and redefining \baselinestretch
+ to 1.2 (or \baselineskip to 1.2\baselineskip, with Plain TeX).
+ You may want to experiment with the factor quoted as "1.2".
+
+ Bugs:
+
+ - Presently none are known.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - Download the contents of "TEXINPUT", and in case of any font
+ problems also "MFINPUT".
+
+ - In case of problems with old DVI files regenerate them; or else
+ download "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font "nash14".
+
+==========================================================================
+24.06.99: Version 3.08i
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - there is an "abstract" environment in the Arabic classes.
+ - mathematical displays bracketed by $$ $$ may be nested within an
+ Arabic environment. Bracketing by $ $ was always there.
+ - The LaTeX commands \( \), \[ \], and also the LaTeX environments
+ "math", "displaymath", "equation", "eqnarray", and "eqnarray*"
+ are supported within Arabic environments, also with the options
+ "leqno" and "fleqn", if LaTeX is used.
+
+ Upcoming Features:
+
+ - a new edition of the User manual is in preparation.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty", if you are interested.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+10.06.99: Version 3.08h
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - there were a few glitches in Pashto and Kashmiri encoding
+ - there were a few glitches in Pashto transliteration
+ - the command \settrans #1 is allowed within Arabic mode
+ - the command \tracingmacros #1 is allowed within Arabic mode
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - the environments "RLtext", "arabtext", and "hebtext" are now
+ equivalent
+ - the braces \< and > are admissible within Arabic mode but have
+ no effect
+ - the command \addcontentsline also works in the Arabic classes
+ "arabrep", "arabart", "arabbook"
+ - the title of the table of contents is context dependent in the
+ Arabic document classes
+
+ Upcoming Features:
+
+ - a new edition of the User manual is in preparation
+ - there is yet no "abstract" environment in the Arabic classes
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty"
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+16.05.99: Version 3.08g2
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - In the transcription mode, capitalization (see version 3.08) can
+ now also be used within a word, even several times.
+ - In the transcription, the positioning of the marks for Hamza and
+ Ayn was slightly improved.
+ - in Urdu mode, Ta' marbuta works again.
+ - in BHS mode, Shin works again.
+ - in the Arabic document classes, some spurious font switches were
+ fixed.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - There is a new language mode: Kashmiri. See "kashmiri.tex" for a
+ short description.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty" (and "kashmiri.sty", "kashmiri.tex" and/or
+ "bhs.sty" if required)
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+10.05.99: Version 3.08f
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - In the transcription mode, capitalization (see version 3.08) can
+ now also be used in the English (Encyclopedia of Islam) style.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+22.04.99: Version 3.08e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - We found some grave errors in the Urdu mode; it seems to work
+ again now. Observe that there are several forms of "heh":
+ - the two-eyed form for aspiration: code <h>
+ - the wavy form for other cases: code <,h>
+ - the final closed form: code <H>
+ For the Name of God, use <H> in Urdu mode, or switch to \setarab
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+10.04.99: Version 3.08d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - For use with EDMAC, the file "aedpatch.sty" has been updated to
+ fix some spurious spaces.
+ - For use with Hebrew, the files "hclassic.mf" and "hcaption.mf"
+ have been slightly adjusted, and "hcbase_pc.mf" was renamed to
+ "hcbase.mf" to fix an incompatibility in some operating systems
+ preventing automatic font generation; the fonts themselves are
+ unchanged.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download the indicated files, if you need them; otherwise you
+ may safely ignore this version.
+
+ Note: the version number of ArabTeX (in the LOG) is still 3.08c !
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+25.03.99: Version 3.08c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - Most of the LaTeX renumbering commands introduced in the last
+ version (3.08b) do NOT work and have been blocked off. LaTeX
+ does not allow font changes within numbering commands, since
+ these must be fully expandable within TeX's mouth.
+
+ - "arabrep.cls" has been updated again.
+
+ Old Features:
+
+ - There is only one new numbering command, and it only can be
+ used in the context of the Arabic document classes, also as a
+ \pagenumbering style, and for renaming e.g. \thesection:
+
+ \abj{ctr} "abjad" notation for counters.
+
+ - \pagenumbering{abj} may also be written \pagenumbering{abjad}.
+
+ - in the Arabic document classes, put \tableofcontents within
+ an Arabic environment.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty", and also "arabrep.cls" when required.
+ The latter file is not contained within the packed versions!
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+21.03.99: Version 3.08b1
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - For LaTeX there are additional numbering commands for counters
+ (cf. Section C.8.4 "Numbering" in the LaTeX manual:)
+
+ \arab{ctr} "Arabic" Arabic numerals
+ \Arab{ctr} "Arabic" Arabic numerals, bold
+ \abj{ctr} "abjad" notation
+ \Abj{ctr} "abjad" notation, bold
+ \Arabic{ctr} "European" Arabic numerals, bold (extension!)
+
+ - There are also the corresponding \pagenumbering styles, e.g.:
+ \pagenumbering{Abj} for bold "abjad" page numbers.
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - Some of these commands were present in 3.07g but did not work.
+
+ - isiri.sty had become incompatible and has been updated.
+
+ - arabrep.cls had become incompatible and has been updated.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - if your MFINPUT subdirectory of ArabTeX should contain a file
+ "asymbols.mf", delete it. It is obsolete and may be in conflict
+ with AMSTeX and/or AMSLaTeX.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty", and "isiri.sty" or "arabrep.cls" when
+ required. The latter two files are not contained within the
+ packed versions!
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+13.02.99: Version 3.08a

+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+01.12.98: Version 3.08
+
+ Status:
+
+ - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load
+ and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there
+ are some new files, and some have been extensively rewritten!
+ The functionality is supposed to be unchanged.
+
+ - We recommend installing of the fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ (and activating them) to obtain better quality of output.
+
+ - ArabTeX is believed to be fully compatible with Babel; however,
+ it does not use its features. Please report incompatibilities.
+
+ - BHS mode is now also compatible with "german.sty".
+
+ New features:
+
+ - There are two new experimental fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ which overcome some limitations inherent in the previously
+ available versions "nash14" and "nash14bf". These fonts can be
+ activated (if installed) by the new command "\newarabfont" and
+ can be deactivated again by "\oldarabfont"; these commands
+ change the meaning of the commands "\setnash" and "\setnashbf"
+ to switch to the new versions, if required, and back.
+
+ - In transcription mode, single characters may be capitalized by
+ prefixing the command \cap in the input; the Arabic writing is
+ not affected.
+ - with ' (hamza) and ` (`ayn) the next visible letter will be
+ capitalized.
+ - this feature also works within words, after prefixes and after
+ the article, even if written in the assimilated form.
+
+ - In transcription mode, the representations of "hamza" and "ayin"
+ have been changed slightly; this might influence line breaks.
+
+ Recommendations:
+
+ - When typesetting Roman text with Arabic or Hebrew insertions, a
+ better result can usually be obtained by typesetting on a grid;
+ this can be accomplished by resetting the parameters \lineskip
+ to 0pt, \lineskiplimit to -30pt, and redefining \baselinestretch

+ download "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font "nash14".
+
+==========================================================================
+21.10.98: Version 3.07k
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - A very obscure internal error has been corrected.
+
+ - In Hebrew mode, the positioning of dagesh and also of some vowel
+ points has been improved.
+ - In Hebrew mode, "meteg" (and silluq) now also works with cholem.
+ - In Hebrew mode, there now is a small space before sof pasuq.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty" and "hepatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+18.10.98: Version 3.07j
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - In Hebrew mode, patach furtivum after cholem works now.
+ - In Hebrew verbatim encodings (HED and ISO 8859-8), neither two
+ identical letters nor a medial letter and its final form will be
+ any more combined (erroneously) to a letter with dagesh.
+
+ Open Problems:
+
+ - On some servers, the font "nash14" seems to be broken. This does
+ NOT concern current ArabTeX runs, but displaying older DVI files
+ might be affected in that some characters, e.g., <^gim>, may be
+ missing.
+ - This will be fixed in the next minor version 3.08; for the time
+ being there are two workarounds:
+ - Reprocess the ArabTeX input file; the display will be correct.
+ - If this is not possible or not wanted, download the ASCII file
+ "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font as required.
+ - The font "nash14bf" might have the same problem; the workarounds
+ apply also.
+ - Neither new ArabTeX runs nor the font "xnsh14" are affected.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - With Hebrew and LaTeX, the LaTeX2e version should be 1996/12/01
+ or newer; older versions have been reported to produce obscure
+ errors. We can no more check this.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "hepatch.sty", and "arabsymb.mf" if required.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+30.09.98: Version 3.07i
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - ArabTeX and CJK are now fully compatible. The loading sequence

+ - defective notation of fatha, kasra, damma works again.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+17.09.98: Version 3.07h
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The position of some more diacritic dots has been corrected.
+ - several ligatures have been improved.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - ArabTeX is now compatible with the package "fnpara.sty" IF this
+ package is loaded BEFORE "arabtex.sty" so that ArabTeX can find
+ out about its presence.
+ - ArabTeX is now compatible with the package "CJK.sty" IF this
+ package is loaded BEFORE "arabtex.sty" so that ArabTeX can find
+ out about its presence.
+
+ Special Features:
+
+ - for users of "tustep.sty" (if any :-):
+ ArabTeX is compatible again.
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - There is a problem concerning double consonants in Hebrew, only
+ in the HED encoding.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+28.08.98: Version 3.07g
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The position of some diacritic dots has been corrected.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - For LaTeX there are additional styles for page numbers:
+ \pagenumbering{arab} will produce *real* Arabic page numbers
+ \pagenumbering{Arab} will produce bold Arabic page numbers
+ \pagenumbering{abjad} will produce "abjad" page numbers
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+06.08.98: Version 3.07f
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - there was a small problem transliterating emphasized words.
+
+ - separating words by || did not work.
+
+ - the character for final "ny" in Malay was wrong.
+ - the character for final "h" in Malay was wrong.
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - Arabic and Persian words may be separated by \, (small space)
+
+ Installation:

+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty" and "hepatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+28.07.98: Version 3.07d
+
+ New Features:
+
+ - there is a new directory "psfonts" that contains the Postscript
+ Type 1 versions of the fonts "xnsh14" and "xnsh14bf". The files
+ are called "xnsh14.pfb", "xnsh14bf.pfb", and "arabtex.map". The
+ fonts use the original TFM files. They have been tested with
+ dvips 5.76, ghostscript 5.10, a LaserJet 4+, and Acrobat Reader.
+
+ These font files have been built and donated by Taco Hoekwater
+ (taco.hoekwater@wkap.nl). Three cheers on him!
+
+ Old Features:
+
+ - the Arabic commands \lq (opening quotes), \rq (closing quotes),
+ and \,(small non-breaking space) have been present for some time;
+ we forgot to document this fact.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download and install the contents of the directory "psfonts"
+ wherever appropriate on your system; this is system dependent.
+
+ - "apatch.sty" was changed, but need not be downloaded except on
+ special advice.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+27.07.98: Version 3.07c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Farsi mode ,a and ,e work again.

+ - download "apatch.sty" and "hepatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+23.07.98: Version 3.07b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The letter SIN in Hebrew mode was broken.
+ - The Sindhi abbreviations look better now.
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - download "apatch.sty" and "hepatch.sty".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+20.07.98: Version 3.07a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - After installing the version 3.07 on our local server we noticed
+ an incompatibility with LaTeX2e; also by some new strategies the
+ patching mechanism had been broken. To fix these effects we had
+ to modify several source modules; we also found, and repaired,
+ several minor bugs. This is in fact nearly a new minor version;
+ on installation see below.
+
+ - To our surprise we found, and repaired, a Y2000 problem.
+
+ Changes:
+
+ - Switch to the new font "xnsh14" by the command "\newarabfont";
+ use "\oldarabfont" for switching back. The previous command
+ "\newfont" collides with a command in LaTeX2e.
+
+ Extensions:
+
+ - The font "xnsh14" contains all character fragments necessary to
+ build the characters in the extended Arabic segment of Unicode.
+ There is as yet no reading module for Unicode or UTF-8 encoding;
+ the present version of "utf8.sty" is still inconsistent.
+
+ - There are new commands "\MIN" and "\IN" for two frequently used
+ abbreviations in Sindhi.
+
+ - The file "atrans.sty" is loaded automatically.
+
+ - The file "etrans.sty" has been deleted. Use "\settrans{english}"
+
+ - The file "nashbf.sty" has been deleted. Use "\setnashbf"
+
+ Installation:
+
+ - If you already have loaded version 3.07, unpack and replace the
+ macro files in "tex307a.zip"; otherwise do a complete install as
+ indicated below for version 3.07 first.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+16.07.98: Version 3.07
+
+ Status:
+
+ - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load
+ and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there
+ are several new files!
+
+ - We have rewritten substantial parts of the package in order to
+ increase stability and also to ease maintenance and extensions;
+ the modularisation is now different, and some of the internal
+ interfaces have been modified. This need not concern the user;
+ the functionality has not been changed, and apparently nothing
+ was broken during the transition to the new structure.
+ - The main reason for the changes was, apart from improving the
+ overall structure, to prepare for the handling of the full
+ Arabic segment of Unicode. This goal has not yet been attained,
+ but it required substantial changes in the internal structures.
+ - The positioning of diacritical marks has on the average been
+ much improved. There are a few exceptions; affected users that
+ need the maximum quality available could try their luck with
+ the new fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf" (see below). Otherwise
+ the user interface has not changed.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - There are two new experimental fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ which overcome some limitations inherent in the previously
+ available versions "nash14" and "nash14bf". These fonts can be
+ activated (if installed) by the new command "\newfont" and can
+ be deactivated again by "\oldfont"; these commands change the
+ meaning of the commands "\setnash" and "\setnashbf" to switch
+ to the new versions, if required, and back. Normal users not
+ requiring the new versions can safely ignore this feature; they
+ need not now install these fonts.
+
+ Bugs:
+
+ - Presently none are known.
+
+==========================================================================
+24.03.98: Version 3.06h
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - some ligatures had been broken by the Sindhi mode; these have
+ been fixed.
+ - kashida before alif maqsura works again.
+
+ Problems:
+
+ - verses produced via "verses.sty" will ruin the word spacing if
+ they occur within an Arabic paragraph inside a footnote, and
+ possibly in other circumstances. There is a workaround: put the
+ command "\setspace{4.3pt plus 0.001fil}" after the last verse.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+11.03.98: Version 3.06g3
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - bi-directional linebreaking has been improved; there were some
+ spurious blank spaces.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - ArabTeX is now believed to be compatible with the BABEL system.
+ We cannot test this locally; reports are welcome. We acknowledge
+ useful hints by Olaf Kummer and Johannes Braams.
+
+ - there is now less spurious information in the LOG file.
+
+ - there are some preparations for processing the UTF-8 encoding
+ and the extended Arabic character set provided in UNICODE. These
+ features cannot yet be accessed from the user level.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+26.01.98: Version 3.06f
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the special handling of final "mim" has been restricted to the
+ Sindhi mode.
+ - the positioning of diacritics has been improved.
+
+ - Hebrew and EDMAC users: the "\if@lodia effect" has been fixed.
+
+ Note to users of EDMAC:
+
+ - download the new version 3.06a of 22.01.98 of "aedpatch.sty".
+ This fixes the format of footnote paragraphs. (This correction
+ cannot technically be handled by a patch within "apatch.sty").
+
+ Note to users of the Sindhi mode:
+
+ - please download the fonts again to get all characters.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+15.12.97: Version 3.06e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - "alif maqsura" and isolated "hamza" take explicit vowel marks
+ and also "tanwin" if required.
+ - final "mim" in the Urdu mode again has the long shape. In the
+ Sindhi mode a short form is simulated by a kashida if needed.
+ - in Urdu the encoding <,d> produces "dal" with a "toi" accent,
+ and initial <U> becomes "alif+damma" and "waw" as required.
+ - some transcription errors in Urdu mode have been fixed.
+ - some ligatures in Sindhi mode are improved.
+
+ Problems:
+
+ - medial "wavy hah" in Urdu has a mark below it (controversial).
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+27.11.97: Version 3.06d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the input letter <A> denotes alif also in initial position and
+ after a prefix separated by a hyphen. It may take short vowels,
+ and also sukun (only if quoted). This feature may be useful when
+ copying corrupted texts.
+ - the "lam" of the article carries "sukun" also if the following
+ word starts with "`ayin", like with the other "moon letters".
+ - the encodings <I> and <iy> are equivalent; also <Iy> and <iyy>,
+ <U> and <uw>, <Uw> and <uww>.
+ - <"> and <""> at the beginning of a word generate alif with wasla
+ even after a prefix.
+ - a prefix before hyphen no more needs a short vowel to work.
+ - the invisible character <|> is legal in the initial or the final
+ position (but makes no sense there). It never takes a vowel mark.
+
+ New features:
+
+ - the inflection endings <-a>, <-i>, <-u>, <-aN>, <-iN>, <-uN> may
+ be separated by a hyphen, also if written <-aNA>. Otherwise the
+ character after a hyphen will be considered to start a new word,
+ but may be joined to the prefix if possible (e.g., in <al-i-ismu>
+ where <-i-> is a connection vowel producing "kasra", and <ismu>
+ starts with "alif" "wasla" combined with "lam" into "lam-alif"
+ carrying both "wasla" and "kasra".)
+ - if a ligature is separated by <|> or <--> (kashida), any vowel
+ mark present will migrate to the appropriate character glyph. The
+ same happens with the implicit vowel mark that is produced by the
+ long vowels in the vowelizing modes.
+ - a comma <,> between digits will no more break the digit sequence
+ but will be recognized as a decimal separator. A hyphen <-> and a
+ solidus </> will also not break a digit sequence. A "number" must
+ still begin with a digit to be recognized.
+
+ Problems:
+
+ - the Urdu mode is still broken.
+ - for the new language modes (see 3.06) there is yet no (correct)
+ transcription.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - users of the Sindhi mode should regenerate the fonts otherwise
+ the "wide kaf" may be missing.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+23.11.97: Version 3.06c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - final "alif maqsura" carries no sukun.
+ - in connection with EDMAC, an Arabic lemma bearing a footnote is
+ spread out by the same factor as the rest of the line, (e.g. in
+ verses) even if it contains spaces.
+ - Arabic footnotes with EDMAC no more produce overfull boxes, and
+ will no more let the page overflow.
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - prefixes separated by a hyphen must presently be given in the
+ fully vowelized input form, otherwise the writing is wrong.
+ - The Urdu mode is broken; also its transcription is wrong.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+25.09.97: Version 3.06b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Kurdish mode, kashida and breaking of ligatures work now
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+18.09.97: Version 3.06a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - there were sometimes spurious newlines if the transliteration
+ was generated via an Arabic insertion
+ - ligatures can again be broken by inserting a bar |
+ - the ligatures family lam-gim, ta-gim etc. works again
+ - there were spurious spaces in bidirectional text under EDMAC
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+06.08.97: Version 3.06
+
+ Status:
+
+ - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files.
+ - This doc file has been trimmed down; history information up to
+ version 3.00 has been moved to "changes2.txt".
+ - Several file names of the mini-documentation have been changed
+ to lower case and carry the suffix ".txt", for the benefit of
+ certain web-browsers. See also the file "arabtex.htm".
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - some minor bugs have been fixed that had introduced spurious
+ spaces or newlines when switching between Arabic and Hebrew.
+ - "kashida" (--) between a consonant and a (long or short) vowel
+ will no more split the vowel indicator from the consonant glyph.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - the new command "\setsindhi" will switch to a language mode for
+ Sindhi in an extended Arabic script. For details, process and
+ read the file "sindhi.tex".
+ - the new command "\setuighur" will switch to a language mode for
+ Uighuric in an extended Arabic script. For details, process and
+ read the file "uighur.tex".
+ - the new command "\setmalay" will switch to a language mode for
+ Old Malay (Jawi) in an extended Arabic script. For details,
+ process and read the file "malay.tex".
+ - These new language modes are strictly experimental and just a
+ starting point. As the author speaks none of these languages,
+ feedback and comments by interested users are badly needed.
+
+==========================================================================
+19.06.97: Version 3.05h
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - some ligatures with "kaf" have been improved.
+ - "quoting" of "wasla" works in all vowel modes.
+ - "kashida" works also before long vowels.
+ - breaking of ligatures works correctly also with long vowels
+ and in combination with "quoting".
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+12.06.97: Version 3.05g
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - a bug fix for the new Sindhi module has been introduced (this
+ mode is in alpha status and not yet publicly available; if you
+ are interested in testing it: enquire)
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+10.06.97: Version 3.05f
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - a spurious error message about a "missing character" has been
+ eliminated.
+ - "\settrans{english}" switches again to the transliteration
+ conventions of the Library of Congress.
+ - ArabTeX will no more overwrite a user macro "\x".
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - the new command "\arabfootnotes" makes LaTeX footnotes run from
+ right to left, and their text is considered Arabic by default.
+ There is as yet no command to switch back to the default mode
+ (left to right, Roman). With Plain TeX the new command is not
+ yet available.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+28.05.97: Version 3.05e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - <U> in the Urdu mode works again.
+ - some errors in the transliteration have been corrected.
+ - some ligatures have been corrected.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+22.05.97: Version 3.05d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - \tabular structures within the Arabic document classes are now
+ correctly aligned.
+ - a few ligatures have been improved.
+ - some internal routines have been updated preparing for some
+ planned extensions. No visible effect.
+ - a new test for version clashes has been introduced.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+14.05.97: Version 3.05c
+
+ Fixes: The patching routine seems to work again.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+14.05.97: Version 3.05b
+
+ Problems:
+
+ - LaTeX is too clever and interferes with the patching routine.
+ Therefore the existing patches for Hebrew have been moved to
+ the file "hepatch.sty". Arabic mode is presently not affected.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+13.05.97: Version 3.05a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Hebrew mode when using HED encoding, Thet and Maqqef did
+ not work correctly.
+ - in EDMAC mode with Plain TeX the list of modules was missing.
+ - some internal interfaces have been updated. This has no effect
+ on the external operation but helps stability.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+07.05.97: Version 3.05
+
+ Status:
+
+ - The internal structure has changed extensively; this need not
+ trouble the user.
+ - Warning: NEVER MIX old and new files; they may be incompatible!
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - A number of minor and some major bugs have been fixed.
+
+ Modifications:
+
+ - With EDMAC, the first argument of \text need not fit on the
+ current line. All arguments are assumed to be Roman text; they
+ may contain (or consist of) \<Arabic insertions>.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - The ISIRI 3342 encoding is supported; load the reading module
+ by \input isiri.sty or \usepackage {isiri}. Activate it by the
+ command \setcode {isiri}.
+ - Hebrew support has been expanded; read the file "hebrew.305".
+ ArabTeX will try to use fonts locally available, irrespective
+ of their encoding.
+ - the file "verses.sty" supports typesetting poetry in two blocks.
+ For a description, see the file itself.
+ - See also the comments on Version 3.04 below.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - If you want to process the manual "arabdoc.tex" under LaTeX 2e
+ and get error messages, delete the *.aux, *.toc, and *.lot file
+ and try again. These files depend on the LaTeX version used.
+ - see also version 3.04.
+
+ Complaints:
+
+ - There is STILL no Nasta`liq font.
+ - the user manual "arabdoc.tex" is outdated.
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - None as yet.
+
+ How to move from earlier minor versions to version 3.05:
+
+ - replace the contents of "TEXINPUT" and "REPORT".
+ - read and/or print "README.305"
+ - if interested, process the user manual "arabdoc.tex"; see the
+ hints above.
+
+==========================================================================
+05.10.96: Version 3.04e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - removed many small bugs in Persian (thanks, Ivan Dershzanski!)
+ - initial <alif> coded <A> in verbatim mode may carry a vowel
+ - <yah> without dots coded <Y> acts like a consonant except at the
+ end of a word
+ - <aNy> denotes <fathatan> on <alif maqsura> erroneously written
+ with dots
+
+ Modifications:
+
+ - removed quoted hamza ("') from verbatim mode (was ambiguous!)
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+18.05.96: Version 3.04d
+10.05.96: Version 3.04c (not distributed)
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in "arabart.cls" (twocolumn) the right column is output first
+ to get correct numbering of sectional units
+ - corrected the vertical position of "marginpar"
+ - a space is assumed after a new command defined via \allowarab
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+08.04.96: Version 3.04b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - \footnote works again within an Arabic environment
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - \footnote is incompatible with "arabart.cls"
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+21.03.96: Version 3.04a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - \baselineskip works correctly with EDMAC
+ - \emphasize puts the overbar at uniform height in \novocalize
+
+ Necessary action:
+
+ If required, download the ASCII file "apatch.sty" again. This
+ is a patch for version 3.04!
+
+ See also version 3.04 below.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+19.03.96: Version 3.04
+
+ Status:
+
+ - ArabTeX now cooperates well with LaTeX 2e (June 1995 and later)
+ and also still with Plain TeX and LaTeX 2.09. The configuration
+ is determined automatically. With LaTeX 2e ArabTeX and all its
+ suboptions are packages.
+ - The internal structure has changed extensively; this need not
+ trouble the user.
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - \baselineskup, \parskip, \baselinestretch now work correctly
+ in the Arabic modes.
+ - The TeX special characters \#, \$, \%, \& can now be used (they
+ just had been forgotten).
+ - A number of minor bugs have been fixed.
+
+ Modifications:
+
+ - Digits and punctuation have been raised to the writing line.
+ We feel this looks better.
+ - The handling of numbers (= digit sequences) has been improved.
+ Within a number, the decimal separator is the comma.
+ - Bidirectional line-breaking has again been much improved. The
+ command \goodpar still works but is rarely required.
+ - The option "abidir" is no more necessary.
+ - The option "nashbf" is no more necessary.
+ - The option "abjad" is no more necessary.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - User defined macros can be made known to ArabTeX by the
+ declaration \allowarab {\macro_name} (previous to their use
+ within an Arabic environment). The replacement text after
+ substituting the parameters must be legal ArabTeX input and
+ may contain further macro calls. The macro must be previously
+ defined via \newcommand or \def.
+
+ - The Arabic Windows encoding is supported; load the reading
+ module by \input arabwin.sty, \usepackage {arabwin} or by
+ adding the LaTeX 2.09 option "arabwin". Activate it by the
+ command \setcode {arabwin}.
+
+ - There are some additional transliteration modes for Persian
+ and Urdu; in case of interest: inquire directly.
+
+ - The package "raw.sty" defines the command \setraw to switch
+ off all special processing for numbers, special characters
+ and parentheses. This may be helpful for OCR work. Switch
+ back by \unsetraw.
+
+ - The (experimental) LaTeX 2e class file "arabart.cls" provides
+ an Arabic article format. Within Arabic environments a number
+ of LaTeX commands are enabled: sectioning, list environments,
+ page headers and footers, table of contents, footnotes, quote,
+ quotation, verse, center, twocolumn. All text arguments are
+ considered to be Arabic text in the chosen encoding. Some of
+ the LaTeX environments are missing, e.g., tabular and tabbing,
+ minipages, pictures. They can usually be simulated by leaving
+ the Arabic environment and reverting to the standard LaTeX
+ commands.
+
+ We are working on extensions to this format; suggestions and
+ bug reports are welcome. We do not intend to supply a version
+ for LaTeX 2.09.
+
+ - See also the comments on Version 3.03 below.
+ - The notes in README.303 still apply.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - Uniform baselines may be obtained by setting \lineskiplimit
+ to -\baselineskip and adjusting \baselinestretch to 1.4 (with
+ LaTeX) or \baselineskip to 1.4\baselineskip with Plain TeX.
+ Some experimenting is advised.
+ - If you want to process the manual "arabdoc.tex" under LaTeX 2e
+ first move the file "arabimax.tex" to the REPORT subdirectory.
+ You will get some error messages on the first run. Forget them
+ and process the file again; LaTeX 2e is to blame. Warning: the
+ report is not quite up to date.
+ - Put any local macro definitions into the LaTeX preamble or else
+ precede them by \setnone; thus the < sign can be used in the
+ normal meaning as a comparison operator. Activate short Arabic
+ insertions again by \setarab or any other of the commands for
+ language choice.
+ - PiCTeX users may use Arabic labels within diagrams if and only
+ if these are included in \< and > (NOT < and >).
+ - If you use MlTeX and the output looks broken, note the version
+ number of MlTeX and inform us.
+
+ Complaints:
+
+ - There is STILL no Nasta`liq font.
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - None as yet.
+
+ How to move from earlier minor versions to version 3.04:
+
+ - read and/or print "README.303"
+
+==========================================================================
+04.07.95: Version 3.03e
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - Final yah before hamza works again
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+24.05.95: Version 3.03d
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - After switching to other encodings switching back to the
+ standard encoding works again.
+ - An empty \RL {} insertion will no more blow the system.
+
+ Problems:
+
+ - see version 3.03c
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+02.05.95: Version 3.03c
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The METAFONT routines for the fonts "nash14" and "nash14bf"
+ used a file "asymbols.mf" that conflicted with the AMS-Fonts.
+ This file has been renamed to "arabsymb.mf". To use the new
+ version, download "arabsymb.mf" and "nashbase.mf" from the
+ subdirectory ARABTEX/MFINPUT and delete "asymbols.mf". This
+ only concerns users who need to regenerate the fonts locally.
+
+ Problems:
+
+ - The font "dclassic" used by the Hebrew mode of ArabTeX has on
+ the archive "noa.huji.ac.il" been replaced by a new version
+ that is incompatible to the previous version while keeping the
+ same name. We are working on a solution to resolve the ensuing
+ compatibility problems. Users of the previous version are not
+ affected.
+
+ Acknowledgment:
+
+ - The routines for building up punctuated Hebrew characters have
+ profited from macros written by Joel Hoffmann and contained in
+ his packages "dots.sty" and "hvowel1.sty". We apologize for not
+ pointing out this fact clearly.
+
+ Necessary action:
+
+ - Normally none, except if indicated above.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+24.04.95: Version 3.03b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - The handling of single and double quotes, and of other special
+ characters, in the ASMO 449 and ISO 8859-6 encodings has been
+ improved.
+ - After a punctuation character inside a word (usually an error)
+ no space will be produced.
+ - <tanwIn> on <'alif maqsUraT> works again.
+ - In \setverb mode, a <harakaT> on <'alif> now works.
+ - In \setverb mode, <A> may be used to produce <'alif>.
+ - The ligature <lm|a> is produced instead of <l|ma>.
+ - <ba'>, <ya'> etc. before <lAm> now have the short form.
+
+ Known bugs in ArabTeX:
+
+ - \begin{arabtext} inside a minipage will produce a spurious
+ empty line; the reason is unknown.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - Numbers after quotes will not be recognized as such and thus
+ will be reversed; as a workaround, leave a space around the
+ digits, e.g., <`` 1234 ''> or use a \nospace command, e.g.,
+ <`` \nospace 1234 \nospace ''>.
+ Mind the spaces before the \nospace commands in the example!
+ - With LaTeX2e, load ArabTeX and its suboptions by the command
+ \usepackage.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+28.03.95: Version 3.03a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - A workaround for an error in some versions of ML-TeX has
+ been tentatively introduced. Non-ML-TeX users may safely
+ ignore this.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+10.03.95: Version 3.03
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - A number of minor bugs have been fixed, nothing dramatic.
+ - The spacing of punctuation has been improved.
+
+ Modifications:
+
+ - Hebrew vowel points are provided. Hebrew mode now uses the font
+ "dclassic". It can be downloaded e.g. from "noa.huji.ac.il".
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - The Hebrew encoding used in the machine readable version
+ of BHS is supported. See README.303!
+ - \obeylines and \obeyspaces also work for Arabic text. They
+ however must be used in a group that contains the Arabic
+ text AND this group must be followed by at least one space.
+ - An <Arabic insertion> inside a \verbatim environment will be
+ typeset in Arabic. Big TeX may be necessary.
+ An Arabic environment will be typeset verbatim.
+ - \vskip, \hskip, \vspace, \hspace, \newpage, \vfill are legal
+ in Arabic mode.
+ - A list of the loaded modules is put into the log file.
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - None as yet.
+
+ How to move from earlier minor versions to version 3.03:
+
+ - completely replace the contents of the subdirectory TEXINPUT
+ - move the updated files "arabdoc?.tex" from the outermost level
+ to the subdirectory "REPORT"
+ - read and/or print "README.303"
+
+==========================================================================
+12.08.94: Version 3.02b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - \fullvocalize mode uses somewhat less TeX main memory than
+ before but might still overflow; using \newpage explicitly
+ could help
+ - some ligatures have been improved
+ - spacing has been improved in short insertions when the
+ transliteration is also generated
+ - in Hebrew mode, HED encoding, double letters work again
+ - explicit spreading works again correctly
+ - <hamza> in rare cases had the wrong carrier
+ - if an Arabic word starts with a vowel, "quoting" toggles
+ <wasla> if no vowel is given in the input
+ - bidirectional line-breaking has been much improved. The
+ command \goodpar is rarely necessary
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - etrans.sty is no more necessary; load atrans.sty
+ - \settrans{english} switches to the romanization conventions
+ of the Library of Congress
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+19.07.94: Version 3.02a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - in Arabic, alif maqsura after tanwin works again
+ - in Hebrew, before an apostrophe the medial form is used
+ - in Hebrew, hyphen/maqqef works correctly
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - with Plain TeX (and/or EDMAC) only: load the ASCII file
+ "apatch.sty" explicitly as the last file!
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+14.07.94: Version 3.02
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - some minor bugs have been corrected
+ - the User Manual has been slightly updated, but is otherwise
+ somewhat out of date.
+
+ Modifications:
+
+ - for storage reasons the transcription module is not loaded
+ automatically; add the LaTeX option "atrans" if required,
+ or say "\input atrans.sty".
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - EDMAC 3.00 and EDMAC 3.15 are both supported.
+ - the LaTeX option "abidir" provides the new command \RL {text}
+ for right-to-left insertions; it is used like <text> which is
+ still provided, and which should be used wherever possible for
+ reasons of efficiency.
+ - the LaTeX option "hebtex" loads the modules for processing text
+ in Hebrew. Switch to Hebrew by \sethebrew, and back to Arabic
+ by \setarab. Hebrew text can be coded in the standard ArabTeX
+ input notation, or in the encoding used by the editor HED; the
+ latter coding is activated by \setcode {hed}. The reading module
+ is supposed to also process texts in "newcode" (not tested!)
+ - For using the Hebrew mode, the font "deadsea" must be available;
+ it can be downloaded e.g. from "noa.huji.ac.il". Vowels are
+ presently not provided.
+ - For details see the ASCII file "readme.302".
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - only load the modules really required, or you might have to use
+ a Big TeX!
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - None.
+
+ How to move from earlier minor versions to version 3.02:
+
+ - completely replace the contents of the subdirectory TEXINPUT
+ - move the updated files "arabdoc?.tex" from the outermost level
+ to the subdirectory "REPORT"
+ - read and/or print "README.302"
+
+==========================================================================
+05.05.94: Version 3.01a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - \parskip now has effect also inside Arabic environments.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - The EDMAC commands \pstart, \pend, \autopar are allowed
+ inside an Arabic environment, IF properly nested.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+28.04.94: Version 3.01
+
+ There has been extensive internal rewriting but the external
+ effects are minor.
+
+ - \setarab is the language default again. It will no more break
+ the user's macro definitions IF these are put into the LaTeX
+ preamble, or before "\input arabtex.sty" when using Plain TeX.
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - Spaces are normally ignored after allowed control sequences
+ inside Arabic text, (if not produced by the command itself.)
+ - The spacing between a final silent <hah> in Persian and the
+ next word has been improved.
+
+ - An error in "twoblocks.sty" has been corrected that produced
+ a spurious vertical space.
+ - An error in "asmo449.sty" has been corrected that produced
+ nonsense from the combination "Gdr" (article with an explicit
+ <sukUn>)
+ - In "abjad.sty", the <gIm> for the numeral 3 has no dot.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - The commands \smallskip, \medskip, \bigskip, \newpage,
+ \clearpage, \pagebreak, \hskip {glue}, \vskip {glue}, \today
+ now work inside Arabic text.
+ - there is a new language mode: \setturk for Ottoman.
+ The input notation has been extended to cover both the standard
+ and the modern Turkish transliteration.
+ The documentation remains to be written :-(
+ - there is a new language mode: \setkurdish for Kurdish.
+ The documentation remains to be written :-(
+ - "" produces an explicit <sukUn> except in \fullvocalize mode
+ where it deletes a <sukUn> otherwise present.
+ - The new commands \setarabfont {\nash} or \setarabfont {\nashbf}
+ supersede \setnash and \setnashbf (which are still supported).
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - None.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - The LaTeX style option "atrans" is redundant.
+ - After changing the input coding, select the language mode and
+ the vowelization mode anew (this is a feature :-).
+
+ How to move from earlier minor versions to version 3.01:
+
+ - completely replace the contents of the directory TEXINPUT
+ - observe that there is a new file "acmd.sty"
+
+==========================================================================
+07.12.93: Version 3.00b
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - corrected handling of <tanween fatha> in \setverb mode.
+ - improved error handling for illegal commands.
+ - ligature <geem>-<meem> also in spreading mode.
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - \setspace{rubber_length} changes the default for spaces in
+ Arabic text; 3pt plus .5fil is recommended for \spreadbox.
+
+ Known bugs:
+
+ - arguments of boxing commands may not contain insertions.
+ - in ASMO449, the combination Gdr (article with an explicit
+ sukoon) will produce nonsense.
+
+ Hints:
+
+ - There is no language default. Do not forget \setarab etc.
+ or otherwise you might get strange results.
+ - After changing the input coding, select the language and
+ the vowelization mode anew (this is a feature).
+
+ These are in the manual but easily overlooked.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+26.11.93: Version 3.00a
+
+ Fixes:
+
+ - the <hamza> carrier is now <ya'> the before diphthong <ay>
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - more Qur'anic writing variants provided
+ - \hfil is allowed in Arabic text
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+20.11.93: Major Version 3.00
+
+ Status:
+
+ - large portions of the code have been rearranged and partly
+ rewritten
+ - The User Manual has been extensively updated and describes
+ all (supported) ArabTeX features currently implemented
+ - Version 3.00 seems to be compatible with Version 2 files
+ - NFSS and NFSS2 can be used but are not required
+ - all known bugs have been removed
+ - Version 3.00 still can be run (slowly) on a standard PC XT
+
+ Additions:
+
+ - texts coded in ASMO 449 or ISO 8859-6 can now be processed
+ - several historic writing variants are additionally supported
+ - details of Farsi support are now described in the User Manual
+ - many new commands are valid inside Arabic text; a complete
+ list appears in the log file of each ArabTeX run, and also
+ in the new User Manual
+ - see also versions 2.00 - 2.08 below
+
+==========================================================================
+
+ How to move from version 2.0x, 0 <= x <= 8, to version 3.00:
+
+ - completely replace the contents of the directory TEXINPUT
+ - completely replace the contents of the directory REPORT
+ - process AND READ the new User Manual "arabdoc.tex"
+ - leave the fonts alone
+
+ How to move from version 1 (or none at all) to version 3.00:
+
+ - Do as above; install the fonts "nash14" and "nash14bf" first
+ according to local TeX conventions.
+ - If the font "nash10" is still there, delete it.
+

+<strong>
+There is a draft version of the new

+<br>
+Please note that this version is still being updated.
+</strong>
+
+<hr><!-- *************************************************************** -->
+
+ Status:
+<ul>
+<li> This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been
+ merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load
+ and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there
+ are several new files, and some have been extensively rewritten!
+ The functionality is supposed to be unchanged.
+
+<li> Distribution and modification of ArabTeX is now governed by the
+ <a href="http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt">
+ Latex Project Public License</a> (see LPPL.TXT).
+
+<li> We recommend installing of the fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf"
+ to obtain better quality of output.
+ These fonts are now the default; to revert to the old versions
+ use the command "\oldarabfont".
+
+</ul>
+
+ New features:
+<ul>
+<li> In Hebrew mode, all standard fonts available on CTAN are now
+ supported, including the possibility of generating vowel points
+ in \vocalize mode.
+
+</ul>
+
+ Bugs:
+<ul>
+<li> See
+<a href="changes.htm"> Last changes </a>
+</ul>
+
+ Installation:
+<ul>
+<li> Download the contents of "TEXINPUT", and in case of any font
+ problems also "MFINPUT".
+
+<li> In case of problems with old DVI files regenerate them; or else
+ download "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font "nash14".

+
+<hr><!-- *************************************************************** -->
+
+ Fixes:
+<ul>
+<li>
+ in Hebrew mode, a spurious 'shwa' on 'gimel' was fixed.
+</ul>
+
+
+ New Features:
+<ul>
+<li>
+ Hebrew mode provides a new command \setjudarab to activate
+ an experimental Judaeo-Arabic mode. Input is supposed to be
+ Arabic in the standard transliteration encoding (other modes
+ might work by accident), output is an extended Hebrew writing
+ in the chosen Hebrew font, and the standard transliteration
+ when activated. Arabic vowels are presently not provided; the
+ Hebrew vowels work but are presumably of no use.
+<p>
+ Caution: The new mode can be expected to contain errors. We
+ do not know the exact writing conventions, and have no access
+ to any relevant literature. Scholars in the field are urged
+ to <a href="mailto:lagallyk@acm.org">contact the author</a>.

+23.10.2003: ArabTeX Version 3.11d

+
+ Fixes:
+<ul>
+<li>
+ In the Arabic document classes, the formatting of the table
+ of contents was improved. A strange bug was corrected.
+
+<li>
+ A storage leak was found which prevented the formatting of
+ longer documents, leading to 'save stack overflow'.
+
+<li>
+ A bug in the ligatures module was found which used to produce
+ bogus messages 'missing letter y in font xnsh14' and to
+ slightly interfere with correct vowelization.
+
+<li>
+ A bug in the output module was found which used to produce
+ bogus messages 'underfull vbox while \output was active'.
+ The fix might slightly influence page breaking.
+</ul>
+
+
+ New Features:
+<ul>
+<li>
+ There is now limited support for Arabized LyX.
+ Since there are no 'italic', 'slanted', 'sanserif' etc. fonts
+ available for ArabTeX, all special font variants are presently
+ mapped into 'bold face'. This could be changed at the user's
+ request; please send any suggestions to the author.
