+README for the rtkinenc package.
+
+The rtkinenc package is functionally similar to the standard LaTeX
+package inputenc -- both set up active characters so that input
+character outside 7-bit visible ASCII are converted to the
+corresponding LaTeX commands. The main difference lies in that
+rtkinenc allows the user to specify a fallback procedure to use
+when the text command corresponding to some input character isn't
+available. This is primarily useful for program listings and similar
+material where one doesn't want characters to disappear in the
+typesetting.
+
+Names of commands in rtkinenc have been selected so that it can read
+inputenc encoding definition files, and the aim is that rtkinenc
+should be backwards compatible with inputenc. rtkinenc is not a new
+version of inputenc though, nor is it part of standard LaTeX.
+
+For an example of how the extra features in rtkinenc might be used,
+see the tcldoc document class (in CTAN directory macros/latex/
+contrib/supported/tcldoc).
