+============================================================
+ Installing the Ibycus-Babel interface
+ version 2.4 as of 2004-11-19
+============================================================
+ Peter Heslin p.j.heslin(at)dur.ac.uk
+ Walter Schmidt w-a-schmidt(at)gmx.net
+
+
+
+Requirements
+------------
+1) You must have installed the Ibycus fonts, (The related
+macros are, however, not needed.)
+
+2) LaTeX must be based upon an eTeX program, rather than on
+`ordinary' TeX.
+
+
+Hyphenation patterns
+--------------------
+The file ibyhyph.tex provides the hyphenation patterns for
+the Greek language with the particular encoding of the
+Ibycus fonts.
+
+Store the file in a directory where LaTeX will find it. To
+make LaTeX actually use it, edit the configuration file for
+the hyphenation patterns. Most likely, the file has the
+name "language.dat" in your TeX system. Add the following
+line to this file:
+
+ibycus ibyhyph
+
+Thus, you establish a relation between the language name
+"ibycus" and the file name "ibyhyph.tex". Update the
+filename database (if applicable) and create a new LaTeX
+format file, which will use the additional hyphenation
+patterns. If you do not know how to do this, check the
+documentation of your TeX distribution, or consult the FAQ
+at http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=formatstymy
+
+ibyhyph.tex was generated from a set of Greek hyphenation
+patterns for LGR encoding through the Perl script
+ibyhyph.pl, which is also part of the distribution.
+
+| We recommend to update the hyphenation file and re-make
+| the LaTeX format, even if you have installed release 1.5
+| of the Ibycus-Babel interface already. Rationale: The
+| pattern file has been improved so as to auto-detect eTeX.
+
+
+Macro files
+-----------
+Store the documented source file ibycus-latex.dtx, the
+related installation script ibycus-latex.ins and the Perl
+script ibyhyph.pl in an appropriate directory of your TeX
+system, e.g., in texmf/source/latex/ibycus-babel.
+
+In this directory, run the installation script
+ibycus-latex.ins through LaTeX:
+
+ latex ibycus-babel.ins
+
+Doing so will create the files ibycus.ldf and ufib.fd.
+
+Move the files ibycus.ldf and ufib.fd to a directory, where
+LaTeX can find them, e.g., texmf/tex/latex/ibycus-babel.
+
+| If you have installed the previous version 1.5, remove the
+| ibycus.ldf from the directory texmf/tex/generic/babel,
+| where it used to be installed automatically.
+
+Finally, update the filename database (if applicable).
+
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+Use of the Ibycus-babel interface is described in the
+document ibycus-babel.pdf. Store it in an appropriate
+directory of your TeX system.
+
+
+Testing
+-------
+Compile the file ibycus-babel-test.tex. Examine the printed
+result, and check the list of possible hyphenation points in
+the log file. You can see if these match those given in the
+comments in the source of ibycus-babel-test.tex, near the
+end of the file.
