+\section{General Settings}
+In order to access the commands of \MonTeX\ the package must be
+loaded in the document preamble by saying
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+\usepackage[<language options>,<encoding options>]{mls}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+The options include choices for the basic document language and
+input encodings.
+
+\subsubsection{Document Language}
+
+The document language can be set with one of
+	\verb"bicig",
+	\verb"bithe",
+	\verb"buryat",
+	\verb"english",
+	\verb"russian" or
+	\verb"xalx"
+like in
+\begin{verbatim}
+\usepackage[xalx]{mls}
+\end{verbatim}
+which issues all captions and the date in Modern Mongolian.
+
+The options \refcmda{bicig} and \refcmda{bithe} are introduced 
+in part~\ref{BicigandBithe}, ``Full Vertical Text Pages''.
+
+The options \cmda{buryat}, \cmda{russian} and \cmda{xalx}
+	produce captions in Buryat, Russian and Modern Mongolian.
+
+\begin{center}
+	\begin{tabular}{ll}
+	    \textbf{Buryat}	&\BuryatToday\\\label{BuryatToday}
+	    \textbf{Xalx}	&\XalxToday\\\label{XalxToday}
+	    \textbf{Russian}	&\RussianToday\\\label{RussianToday}
+	\end{tabular}
+\end{center}
+
+
+The option
+\cmda{english}, at least as a \verb"\usepackage" option, is
+essentially a do-nothing: it sets captions to English (which is
+the default of this package anyway).
+\section{Cyrillic Text -- \xalx{Kirill "us"ag}}
+
+\subsection{Cyrillic Text in Transliteration (\LMC) Mode%
+	\label{section:CyrillicTransliterationMode}}
+
+\MonTeX\ provides two basic modes of operation: in
+\begin{itemize}\label{SetDocumentEncoding}
+	\item Transliteration Mode (intimately linked to the \LMC\
+		encoding) all incoming text is regarded as
+		transliterated Cyrillic. This allows users to
+		compose Cyrillic documents on pure ASCII machines.
+		In contrast, the
+	\item Immediate Mode does nothing and waits for explicit
+		Cyrillic characters in the input in order to generate
+		Cyrillic output.
+\end{itemize}
+Two commands are used to switch between these modes:
+\begin{quote}
+\begin{verbatim}
+\SetDocumentEncodingLMC
+\SetDocumentEncodingNeutral
+\end{verbatim}
+\end{quote}
+
+The first command switches to Transliteration Mode, the second
+command deactivates the transliteration and thus, by definition,
+activates Immediate Mode.
+
+In the \LMC\ encoding, most Cyrillic characters are mapped directly to
+a single Latin character but for some characters there is a text
+command which became necessary since there are more Cyrillic than
+Latin characters. For convenience, a few ligatures were defined, too.
+Details are given in table~\ref{cyralpha}.

+\caption{Cyrillic Alphabet Input Methods\label{cyralpha}}
+\end{center}
+\end{table}
+
+Front vowels can be entered directly using the encoding slot of a
+valid and active input encoding, or they can be expressed via an
+abbreviated \verb'"'\emph{v} notation where \emph{v} stands for any
+desired vowel. In the \LMC\ encoding used by \MonTeX, \verb'"' is not
+an active character; selecting the proper letter is done by ligature
+statements in the Metafont sources.
+ 
+Some letters can be entered with or without a preceding \verb"\",
+like \cyryu\ and \cyrya. Both \verb"\yu" and \verb"yu" will produce
+a \cyryu. While \verb"yu" is interpreted as a ligature, \verb"\yu"
+allows for the character \cyryu\ to be combined with accents.
+Accents are not commonly used in Mongolian since there are precise
+rules for word stress. This feature is taken from the \textsf{OT2} encoding 
+and is included mainly for the sake of completeness, convenience and
+compatibility\footnote{The magic triple-C!}.
+
+Here now a sample of Mongolian text:
+\exa
+	{\mnr<<Xalxyn gurwan "ond"or>> 
+	x"am"a"an aldarshsan, Z"u"un xyazgaaryg
+	toxinuulax sa"id N.~Dugarjaw ardyn

+
+\subsection{Shorthands for embedding words in a different
+		typeface}\label{typefacecapsules}
+
+Sometimes it may be necessary to give short portions of text not
+only in a different encoding (for which the \cmd{lat}\verb:{...}:
+and \cmd{mnr}\verb:{...}: commands are
+useful) but it may also be necessary to switch the typeface
+temporarily. Usually capsules using \verb'\text'\emph{xx} do the
+work if only the typeface is concerned, and building nested commands
+like \verb'\textsf{\lat{...}}' is cumbersome if these changes have
+to be applied very often. \MonTeX\ provides an abbreviated style
+following the rule 
+\begin{quote}
+	\texttt{[k|l]}\emph{two letter font style code}\verb'{...}'
+\end{quote}
+where the font style code is one of
+	\verb'rm',
+	\verb'bf',
+	\verb'it',
+	\verb'sl',
+	\verb'sf',
+	\verb'sc' and
+	\verb'tt',
+like \verb'\ksl{...}', \verb'\lsc{...}', etc.
+
+
+\subsection{Shorthands for writing transliterated texts}
+
+\MonTeX\ provides shortcuts for writing certain accented symbols
+used in conventional transliterating of Mongolian by 
+haceks, the nasal and the gamma. These shortcuts are essentially
+mnemonics replacing the somewhat more tedious accent notation (see
+table~\ref{shortcuts}).
+
+\begin{table}
+\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ll|ll}
+%\hline
+Letter	& Input 	& Letter	& Input \\
+	&		&		&\\
+\hline
+	&		&		&\\
+\ch 	& \verb"\ch"	& \Ch		& \verb"\Ch" \\
+\jh 	& \verb"\jh"	& \Jh		& \verb"\Jh" \\

+\g	& \verb"\g"	& \G		& \verb"\G" \\
+%\hline
+\end{tabular}\end{center}
+\caption{Shortcuts for Mongolian Transliteration Symbols\label{shortcuts}}
+\end{table}
+
+It must be observed that these commands are by default dependent on
+the environment they are used in. \verb"\Sh" yields a \Sh\ when used
+in a Latin environment but results in a \mnr\Sh\rnm\ when used in a
+Cyrillic context\footnote{The authors wish to thank J.~Knappen for
+resolving one instability in the original code for these letters.}:
+
+\exa
+	\emph{\Sh agdar} and \emph{\Ch adraa}
+	are transliterations for
+	{\mnr\Sh agdar} and {\mnr\Ch adraa}.
+\exb
+	\begin{verbatim}
+	\emph{\Sh agdar} and \emph{\Ch adraa}

+	{\mnr\Sh agdar} and {\mnr\Ch adraa}.

+\end{center}
+\end{table}
+
+While the input method for the majority of characters matches the
+transliteration conventions, some letters require a slightly
+different treatment:
+\begin{enumerate}
+	\item	Although the diphtong \mobosoo{*aii*} is usually
+		rendered as \textit{ayi}, it must be entered
+		as \texttt{aii} in order to produce the desired
+		effect.
+	
+	\item	The back vowels \emph{o} and \emph{u} are both rendered
+		as \texttt{u}.
+
+	\item	The front vowels \emph{\"o} and \emph{\"u} are both
+		rendered as \texttt{ui} in first syllables and as
+		\texttt{u} in later syllables.
+
+	\item	Since \mobosoo{t} means both \emph{t} and \emph{d},
+		it is necessary to spell this letter as \texttt{t}
+		in the beginning of words, and \texttt{d} in the
+		middle of words, regardless of the actual meaning.
+
+	\item	The four consonants \emph{\g}, \emph{g}, \emph{x}
+		and \emph{k} are constrained with regard to the
+		following vowels. The Simplified Transliteration
+		renders these as \texttt{g} (before \emph{a}
+		and \emph{u} only), \texttt{g} (before \emph{a}
+		and \emph{u} only), \texttt{x} and \texttt{k}.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+
+As it was demonstrated in subsection~\ref{section:CyrillicTransliterationMode},
+it is technically possible to choose between an automatic document encoding
+and the neutral mode. In the case of Uighur Mongolian, the mode of choice
+activates the Simplified Transliteration Mode and is called with 
+\begin{quote}
+\begin{verbatim}
+\SetDocumentEncodingBicig
+\end{verbatim}
+\end{quote}
+
+
+With
+\verb"\SetDocumentEncodingBicig"\label{cmd:SetDocumentEncodingBicig} set,
+it is possible to switch to the Simplified Transliteration Mode anywhere
+in the document, not only in the preamble.
+
+\textit{Caveat:} Since switching to Uighur Mongolian text
+requires a lot of settings to be effected at the same time, there
+are high-level commands available (see below all kinds of  Mongolian
+and Manju Display Commands) which do all the work, including the definition of the
+document encoding. Thus, while \verb|\SetDocumentEncodingBicig|
+is indeed classified as a user-level command, it is certainly not
+necessary for everyday work.
+
+
+\subsection{Character Variants}
+
+With the assistance of special, non-printing characters like the
+Form Variant Selectors, the appearance of certain characters can be
+modified in order to display typographical and orthographical
+variants. Notably, the \emph{n} will loose its dot before vowels,
+as will \emph{\g}. Let's assume the word ``place'' is written in an
+old book as \bicig{g'azar}. It should be understood that this is a
+variant of \bicig{gazar} and should be spelled \emph{\g'azar}, not
+\emph{xazar}. With vowels, the Form Variant Selectors can change the
+shape that is usually required by graphical context. At present,
+only the first of two Form Variant Selectors actually does
+something, the exact behaviour of the second Form Variant Selector
+waits to be implemented.
+
+The following short example shows a concrete application of this
+method. It renders the six syllable mantra \emph{om ma ni padme hum}
+(tib.  {\tib \om, ma nxi pa\V{de}{ma} \hung}) as it is
+displayed on a huge bronze incense burner in front of the Gandan
+Monastery in Ulaanbaatar:
+
+\exa
+	\mobox{3cm}{\noindent\sffamily
+	\om	uva\\
+	\  	ma'=a\\
+	\  	n'i\\
+	\  	badmi'\\
+	\om	huu}
+\exb
+	\begin{verbatim}
+	\mobox{3cm}{\noindent\sffamily
+	\om	uva\\
+	\ 	ma'=a\\
+	\ 	n'i\\
+	\ 	badmi'\\
+	\om	huu}
+	\end{verbatim}
+\exc
+	
+\subsection{Special Characters\label{section:SpecialMLSCharacters}}
+
+For the correct operation of retransliterating systems processing
+Mongolian script additional symbols are needed. These include
+Form Variant Selectors (\textsf{FVS}), the Vowel Separator, and
+other symbols like the Mongolian Positional Indicator. As can be
+seen from its usage in table~\ref{table:bcgcagan}, entering \verb|*ng|
+tells the system to consider this \emph{ng} to be in non-initial
+position.\footnote{Unfortunately, though it is now commonly
+agreed in the scientific community that these symbols are needed,
+their definition is still in a state of flux, and thus the symbols
+given here are presented on a preliminary basis.}
+
+Besides these symbols, table~\ref{table:SpecialMLSCharacters} includes
+also some useful punctuation marks etc.\ as they are used in
+Mongolian Script.

+\subsection{Manju Input}
+
+Manju documents can be compiled with the \refcmda{bithe} option
+to the \verb|\usepackage| command, which will create complete
+documents in Manju. Anywhere in the document, it is possible to
+switch to Manju input (transliteration mode)
+with
+\verb"\SetDocumentEncodingBithe"\label{cmd:SetDocumentEncodingBithe} which
+internally activates the \LMA\label{a:LMA} encoding.
+
+\textit{Caveat:} Since switching to Manju text
+requires a lot of settings to be effected at the same time, there
+are high-level commands available (see below) which do all the work, including
+the definition of the document encoding. Thus, while
+\verb|\SetDocumentEncodingBithe| is indeed classified as a
+user-level command, it is certainly not necessary for everyday work.
+
+
+\subsection{Basic Character Set and Romanization}
+
+Given by dictionary order, the system provides a basic
+character set as shown in table~\ref{table:ManjuBasicChars}.
+
+\newcommand{\MaEntry}[3]{\mabosoo{#1}& #2 & #3 }
+\begin{table}
+\begin{center}
+\begin{tabular}{ccc|ccc|ccc}

+\MaEntry{v}{v}{\={u}}	& \MaEntry{t}{t}{t}	& \MaEntry{h'}{h'}{h'}	\\

+\end{tabular}
+\caption{Manju Basic Character Set\label{table:ManjuBasicChars}}
+\end{center}
+\end{table}
+
+While the input method for the majority of characters matches the
+transliteration conventions, some letters require a slightly
+different treatment:
+\begin{enumerate}
+	\item Although the diphtong \mabosoo{*aii*} is
+		usually rendered as \textit{ai}, it must be entered
+		as \texttt{aii} in order to produce the desired
+		effect.
+	\item The vowel which is conventionally rendered as \textit{\^u}
+		or \textit{\=u} \mabosoo{v} can be entered as \texttt{v}
+		or as \verb|\={u}| due to the fact that a character
+		\textit{\^u} is not readily available on most systems.
+	\item The consonant \textit{\v s} \mabosoo{s'} can be entered as
+		\texttt{s'} or as \verb|\v{s}|, but not as *\texttt{sh}
+		as to avoid undesired mergers of \textit{s} and \textit{h}
+		like in \textit{ishun} \mabosoo{ishun} which should not be
+		*\textit{i\v{s}un} \mabosoo{is'un}!
+\end{enumerate}
+
+
+\subsection{Small Portions of Mongolian and Manju in Running Text}
+
+For displaying short Mongolian snippets in running text
+use 
+\begin{itemize}
+	\item [MLS Romanization] \cmd{bcg}\verb|{...}|.
+	\item [Simplified Transliteration] \cmd{bicig}\verb|{...}|.
+\end{itemize}
+
+For displaying short Manju snippets in running text
+use \cmd{bithe}\verb|{...}|.
+

+\subsection{Horizontal Paragraphs of Mongolian or Manju Text}
+
+If one needs more than a few words of Mongolian or Manju but does
+not want to change the line orientation, then the environments
+\cmda{bicigtext} for Mongolian (which should be entered in
+Mongolian Simplified Transliteration) and \cmda{bithetext} for Manju are
+useful.

+\subsection{Vertical Capsules}
+
+Individual Mongolian and Manju words can be placed vertically
+anywhere in otherwise horizontal text like in
+the keyword entry of dictionaries.\footnote{Famous dictionaries with
+	a mixture of vertical and horizontal printing are I.~J.~Schmidt's
+	Mongolian-Russian-German dictionary (1835) and F.~Lessing's
+	Mongolian-English dictionary (1960).}.\marginpar{%

+
+		\vspace{2.54mm}
+
+		\raggedright\small
+		without PostScript support Mongolian text enclosed in
+		vertical capsules will be printed \emph{horizontally}!}
+The capsule containing the
+Mongolian or Manju word will automatically request sufficient space
+so that ugly overlaps with neighbouring lines will not happen.
+
+For presenting text given in broad (or MLS) transliteration, use the command
+\cmd{mbosoo}\verb|{...}|; when writing in Mongolian Simplified
+Transliteration, use \cmd{mobosoo}\verb|{...}|; likewise for Manju, use
+\cmd{mabosoo}\verb|{...}|. All these commands are derived from a
+command \cmd{bosoo}\verb|{...}| which places text in vertical
+capsules but leaves the contents untouched as far as the encoding is
+concerned.
+
+\exa

+		\bosoo{text}.

+
+
+\subsection{Vertical Text Boxes}
+
+For presenting individual paragraphs of Mongolian or Manju text in
+vertical manner in an otherwise horizontal text, there are the box
+commands \cmd{mobox}\verb|{...}{...}| for Mongolian%
+\footnote{Mongolian input \emph{must} be coded in Mongolian Simplified
+	Transliteration; MLS input won't work.}
+and
+\cmd{mabox}\verb|{...}{...}|
+for Manju. These boxes take two arguments. The first argument
+indicates the \textit{vertical depth} of the box, or its line
+length. The second argument contains the desired text.

+\subsection{Full Vertical Text Pages\label{BicigandBithe}}
+
+If you need several pages of Mongolian output, enclose your text
+in an evironment \cmda{bicigpage}, and use \cmda{bithepage}
+likewise for Manju texts. Note that Mongolian must be entered in
+Simplified Transliteration.
+
+Finally, if you want the whole document and its basic language to be
+Classical, or Uighur Mongolian, say \verb|\usepackage[bicig,...]{mls}|.
+Likewise, complete Manju documents are produced with 
+\verb|\usepackage[bithe,...]{mls}|.
+
+If you start a document with a \verb|\usepackage[bicig]{mls}|
+declaration you can still switch back to Latin by issuing an
+\verb|\end{bicigpage}| command.
+
+Likewise, if you start a document with a \verb|\usepackage[bithe]{mls}|
+declaration you can still switch back to Latin by issuing an
+\verb|\end{bithepage}| command.
+
+The following snippet of Mongolian text is presented in full
+page mode on the next pages, first in Simplified Transliteration form, then
+in Uighur form; in order to achieve this result the text had to be
+included in the environment \texttt{bicigpage}.

+\subsection{Pure Uighur Mongolian and Manju Documents}
+
+Writing a complete document in Mongolian or Manju is as simple and
+straightforward as writing a document in English or Xalx Mongolian.
+
+The example file, \texttt{zanabazr.tex}
+(shipped together with this documentation and located in the
+directory \texttt{../examples/}) demonstrates how a pure
+Mongolian Bicig document can be created.
+
+\begin{figure}[h]

+...
+... more text ...
+              ...
+\end{document}
+\end{verbatim}
+\end{figure}
+
+The concept is the same for Manju documents: instead of \cmda{bicig}
+one would use the \verb|\usepackage[...]{mls}| option \cmda{bithe}
+and enter Manju text.
+
+\subsection{Font Selection Commands}
+
+There are two distinct styles of Mongolian script: one style
+is typically used for modern print, whereas the other style
+appears in old block prints and stone inscriptions.
+
+Since there is no proper equivalent between Latin and Mongolian
+typographical features, a somewhat arbitrary assignment was made
+to the effect that the block print style can be activated by
+setting the font family sans serif with \cmd{sffamily}. In 
+contrast, setting the roman default family with \cmd{rmfamily}
+switches back to the modern style.
