- learning about `ednotes' -- standalone packages -- contact us --
- newsletter -- glossary
-
-PURPOSE of the macros:
-
- Here are macros for typesetting CRITICAL EDITIONS with LaTeX.
- Packages `lineno' by Stephan I. B"ottcher, `manyfoot' by Alexander
- I. Rozhenko, and `longtable' by David Carlisle are enhanced and
- combined. -- For a few first informations, you may have a look at
- http://ednotes.sty.de.vu.
-
-** RECENT CHANGES: **
-
- If you have used `ednotes' earlier than September 2004, we urge you
- to read the `CHANGES' file in the `ednotes' directory, especially
- concerning the changes of September/October 2004. `ednotes',
- `lineno', and `manyfoot' have been changed at one time and interact
- differently than before. Some files have been removed, and former
- extension packages are now automatically loaded on `ednotes' package
- options.
-
-RIGHTs:
-
- For COPYRIGHTs as well as conditions of use (NO WARRANTY),
- MODIFYING, and (RE)DISTRIBUTION, please see inside the files
- mentioned in the present `README' file, as well as
- `README-lineno.txt' and `README-ncctools.txt'. Usually, the LaTeX
- Project Public License applies, a recent version of which can be
- found on
-
- http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
-
- Any REDISTRIBUTION of `ednotes.sty' must contain the present
- `README' file.
-
- If you DISTRIBUTE `manyfoot.sty' and `nccfoots.sty', they must be
- accompanied by `manyfoot.dtx', `nccfoots.dtx', and
- `README-ncctools.txt'.
-
-INSTALLATION of `ednotes':
-
- For enabling yourself to make use of all the options that
- `ednotes' provides, download
-
- edcntwd0.sty
- ednmath0.sty
- ednotes.sty
- edtable.sty
- lineno.sty
- ltabptch.sty
- manyfoot.sty
- mfparptc.sty
- nccfoots.sty
- perpage.sty
- vplref.sty
-
- from
-
- http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ednotes
-
- (e.g., cf. `CTAN' in the glossary). Note that clicking on
- "entire directory" suffices.
-
- Moreover, you may need
-
- longtable.sty
-
- from the LaTeX Tools Bundle -- you should have it already with your
- LaTeX distribution.
-
- You then have to make the .sty files listed above "visible"
- (see the glossary below) to (La)TeX when it runs your job.
-
- (You may find out through reading documentations that it partially
- depends on your intentions which .sty files actually must be there.
- E.g., `ednotes.sty' works already when it is accompanied by
- `lineno.sty', `manyfoot.sty', and `nccfoots.sty'.)
-
-USAGE of `ednotes':
-
- We recommend not to load (by \usepackage) .sty files other than
- `ednotes.sty' (except for "standalone uses" as explained below).
- They are handled through `ednotes' package options as explained
- in the documentation.
-
- Sorry, the "user guide" and documentation for `ednotes' is, at
- present, scattered over the listed .sty files and over the listed
- CTAN folders. Here is just a guide through files and folders to
- increase your knowledge step by step:
-
- 0. Oh, recently some of these explanations have been collected
- in ednotes.pdf -- .txt input with .pdf output.
-
- 1. An overview of `ednotes' has appeared in TUGboat vol. 24.
- no. 2; the above `ednotes' directory of CTAN contains an
- updated .pdf version `ednotugb.pdf' of it. It demonstrates
- through some examples what output certain commands produce.
- It also compares `ednotes' with two other (La)TeX packages
- for critical edition typesetting.
-
- 2. Next (or even first) we recommend reading the explanations at
- the beginning of `ednotes.sty'.
-
- 3. You may find references to .sty files from the `ednotes' and
- the `lineno' folder for reading about additional details of
- usage.
-
- 4. `lineno.sty' provides commands and options that are very useful
- to know for creating critical editions by `ednotes'. You can
- read about these commands and options in `lineno.sty'.
- Moreover, the explanations from `lineno.sty' can be printed
- through `lineno.tex' or `lineno.pdf' obtainable from the above
- `ednotes' directory. You find there as well an attempt at a
- user's guide for `lineno' -- `ulineno.tex' and `ulineno.pdf'.
- The latter is not quite up to date, but it may be helpful
- though. -- When you use `ednotes', don't believe what the
- `lineno' documentation tells about, e.g.,
-
- \usepackage[edtable]{lineno}
-
- (such statements address usage of `lineno' without `ednotes').
- Many package options of `ednotes.sty' are just passed to
- `lineno.sty', so the `lineno' documentation is `ednotes'
- documentation in this respect.
-
- 5. `manyfoot' is another essential module for making `ednotes'
- work, though you may hardly need to know about it, `ednotes'
- is a kind of user interface for `manyfoot'. However, you may
- inform yourself about offers of `manyfoot' for certain fine
- points of critical edition typesetting through `manyfoot.dtx'
- or `manyfoot.pdf' -- which you find in
-
- http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ncctools
-
- (e.g., cf. `CTAN' in the glossary). There are `nccfoots.dtx'
- and `nccfoots.pdf' as well. Indeed you may find functions of
- `manyfoot' useful just for your commentary passages.
-
- 6. `perpage.sty' is mentioned here mainly to allow use of
- `manyfoot's `perpage' option. It contains brief explanations.
-
- 7. `longtable', of course, is explained in `longtable.dtx' and
- various guides for LaTeX.
-
- 8. We have prepared something for listing line numbers for index
- terms. We don't take the time to integrate it here -- please
- contact us (see below) if you are interested.
-
-Standalone files:
-
- Some of the listed .sty files which are our work may be useful
- without using `ednotes':
-
- 1. Whenever you use `manyfoot', you can load `mfparptc.sty' after
- `manyfoot.sty' just to modify the behaviour of `manyfoot' in
- the way that is explained in `mfparptc.sty'.
-
- Moreover, there is a file `mfparxsp.sty', made for the
- possibility that some `manyfoot' user has used an earlier
- version of `mfparxsp.sty' which has become obsolete.
-
- 2. For extending lineno.sty by packages from here, see
-
- http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/lineno
-
- (e.g., cf. `CTAN' in the glossary).
-
- 3. `ltabptch.sty', a patch for `longtable', can be used whenever
- `longtable' is used.
-
- 4. An additional file `lblchng1.sty' deals with page break
- oscillations, by code as well as by explanations and
- discussion. It can be used entirely independently from
- any of the packages mentioned before.
-
-CONTACT us:
-
- We would be happy about your suggestions and (in a way) about your
- bug reports. Since documentation is so poor at present, please feel
- free to ask us for help if needed. Please contact us via
-
- http://www.contact-ednotes.sty.de.vu
-
- (Note: in TeX terms, the names in the file heading are `L\"uck'
- and `G\"ottingen.)
-
-NEWSLETTER:
-
- E.g., you may ask us to take your e-mail address into a mailing
- list for reporting `ednotes' changes.
-
-Lucky typesetting!

-GLOSSARY:
-
-* `CTAN'
- abbreviates `Comprehensive TeX Archive Network', cf., e.g.,
-
- http://www.ctan.org
-
- and read about "mirrors" there. You will understand that you
- may replace `www.ctan.org/tex-archive' by `www.dante.de/CTAN'
- (e.g.) in the above-mentioned URL. (But dante doesn't offer
- the "entire directory" function.)
-
-
-* visible to (La)TeX
-
- -- see the file `visible.txt' in the above `ednotes' directory.
