-\section{Welcome to \LaTeXNews~3}
-
-An issue of \emph{\LaTeXNews} will accompany every future release of
-\LaTeX. It will tell you about important events, such as major bug
-fixes, newly available packages, or any other \LaTeX{} news.
-
-\section{June 1995 release of \LaTeX}
-
-June 1995 sees the third release of \LaTeXe. We are on schedule
-to deliver a release of \LaTeX{} every six months, in December and
-June.
-
-In the last \emph{\LaTeXNews}, we said ``we don't expect so much
-activity in the next six months,'' which has turned out not to be
-true!
-
-\section{Additional input encodings}
-
-In the last release of \LaTeX{} we distributed a test version of the
-\texttt{inputenc} package which allows the use of input characters
-other than just a--z and A--Z. The package has proved to be robust,
-so we are now distributing an expanded version.
-The new release comes with a number of input encodings:
-
-\begin{itemize}
-\item \texttt{ascii} the standard encoding,
-\item \texttt{latin1} the ISO Western European alphabet,
-\item \texttt{latin2} the ISO Eastern European alphabet,
-\item \texttt{cp437} the IBM codepage 437,
-\item \texttt{cp850} the IBM codepage 850, and
-\item \texttt{applemac} the Apple Macintosh encoding.
-\end{itemize}
-These can be used by specifying an option to the \texttt{inputenc}
-package, for example:
-\begin{verbatim}
- \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
-\end{verbatim}
-The new input encodings are currently being tested, but we don't
-expect any major changes.
-
-\section{\LaTeX\ getting smaller}
-
-In the past releases of \LaTeXe, the amount of memory \LaTeX{}
-requires has increased, but we are pleased to say that this trend has
-been reversed. We hope that future releases of \LaTeX{} will continue
-to get smaller.
-
-For example, on this document, the December 1994 release used 52,622
-words of memory, and the June 1995 release uses 51,216 words of
-memory, which is a 2.7\% reduction.
-
-We are currently experimenting with other ways of reducing the size of
-\LaTeX. For example, we are experimenting with an option to remove
-the \texttt{picture} and \texttt{tabbing} environments from the
-\LaTeX{} kernel, and to load them from a file the first time they are
-used. This should help \LaTeX{} to run on machines with limited
-memory. See \texttt{autoload.txt} for details.
-
-\section{Distribution and modification}
-
-One topic of discussion that has kept us busy is the distribution and
-modification conditions of \LaTeX. We are committed to keeping
-\LaTeX{} as free reliable software, and ensuring that (as far as
-possible) \LaTeX{} documents will produce the same results on all
-systems.
-
-The modification conditions are currently under discussion, and we
-would like to hear from anyone interested. Please read
-\texttt{modguide.tex} for more information.
-
-\section{AMS-\LaTeX\ full release}
-
-The AMS-\LaTeX\ packages were still in beta test in the December 1994
-release of \LaTeX, and the full release came out in January 1995.
-
-AMS-\LaTeX\ is described in the \emph{User's Guide}
-(\texttt{amsldoc.tex}) and in \emph{The \LaTeX{} Companion}.
-
-\section{PostScript fonts}
-
-There is a new test release of the PSNFSS packages for accessing
-PostScript fonts in \LaTeXe. This includes an update to all of the
-fonts, to remove many of the underfull and overfull \verb|\hbox|
-warnings, and improve the setting of non-English languages.
-
-The new release of \LaTeX{} removes all of the `hidden' uses of
-Computer Modern mathematics. For example, the footnote markers used
-to use math mode, so always used Computer Modern digits rather than
-ones from the current text font. This has now been fixed.
-
