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. + + +-- finis |
