-\section{Introduction}
-{\sf Soyombo for \LaTeX} is a package providing the Soyombo
-script and the Soyombo symbol for \LaTeX\ users. The Soyombo
-script and the Soyombo symbol were both developed in 1686 by
-the famous Mongolian monk and scholar Zanabazar. Modelled after
-the Lantsa-Dewanagari script, the Soyombo script combines
-the phonemic repertoire of Mongolian, Sanskrit, and Tibetan.
-The script is not in wide use today; its
-usage is basically limited to religious texts, inscriptions on
-temples, etc. The Soyombo symbol (the symbol appearing in the
-title of this article) however, can be seen virtually everywhere:
-on the national flag, on money, on books --- the instances are
-too numerous to be counted.
-
-The logical construction of the script is two-dimensional, not
-linear. Basic consonants are combined with vowels and final consonants
-in a way similar to Tibetan; in fact, some of the letter shapes
-as well as the arrangement of the alphabet was heavily influenced
-by Tibetan.
-
-The basic consonant fills the major area of the symbol; if no
-vowel sign is added, the basic vowel {\em a} is assumed; if a
-vowel is added, then it is either placed on top of the character
-(in case of {\em i, „, o, ”}) or in the lower third of the character
-box (in the cases of {\em , u}). A secondary consonant, i.e.
-a consonant closing the syllable, can be added to the basic character;
-it is then placed in the right third of the lower third of the
-character box. Long vowels are marked by a protruding tip of
-the right-side beam. there are two diphthongs, {\em Vu, Vi},
-which are both attached to the right side of the basic character.
-
-Figure~\ref{soyombo:structure} shows how the letters are composed.

-\section{How to use the Soyombo package}
-This section describes which files are necessary, which commands
-are needed for invoking the Soyombo symbol and characters, and
-how special symbols are entered.
-
-\subsection{Necessary files}
-The Soyombo package consists of the following files:
-\begin{description}
-\item [Package] The file {\tt soyombo.sty} provides all necessary
- declarations and commands for selecting and entering the
- Soyombo symbol and script. Place this file somewhere where your
- \LaTeX\ installation will find it. In {\tt emtex} systems,
- this could be the path \verb"\emtex\texinput\mls" assuming you
- have a subdirectory named \verb"mls" which holds everything
- necessary for Mongolian Language Support.
-\item [Fonts] The font files {\tt soyombo.mf} and {\tt soyombot.mf}
- provide the alphabet and the symbol, respectively. They should
- reside in a directory where {\sc Metafont} can find them, e.~g.
- \verb"\emtex\mfinput\mls". Here again, it is assumed that a
- directory \verb"mls" has been created for holding these and
- other fonts necessary for typesetting Mongolian.
-\item [Font Metrics] The font metrics files {\tt soyombo.tfm} and
- {\tt soyombot.tfm} go into \verb"\emtex\tfm\mls".
-\item [Documentation] This file is named {\tt soyo4tex.tex}. You
- are reading it at the moment. It can be placed in the same directory
- as {\tt soyombo.sty} or in a separate directory in the
- \verb"\emtex\doc" branch.
-\end{description}
-
-\subsection{Declarations and Commands}
-In order to use the Soyombo script, the preamble of your document
-must contain the declaration \verb"\usepackage{soyombo}". This
-is the only necessary step. Two commands become available then:
-\verb"\Soyombo" produces the Soyombo symbol (see the title of
-this artice), and \verb"\soyombo" switches to the Soyombo character
-set.
-
-\subsection{Input method}
-Within an environment declared by \verb"\soyombo", entering most
-of the basic characters is straightforward. Initial consonants
-are entered as such. Except for {\em a} which is not marked vowels are entered by
-using lowercase letters for back vowels and uppercase letters
-for front vowels: {\em o ” u } are entered as {\tt o O u U}.
-Both {\tt u U} have
-a form variant entered as {\tt v V} which is shorter and used
-for combinations with final consonants.
-
-Syllable finals are entered in uppercase. In most cases, the
-same letter as for the initial (and lowercase) version is used.
-
-The following example shows how the words {\em xamu\g\ s„dgil-t}
-written in Soyombo {\soyombo kmvG seDgiLtU} translate into a
-sequence of transliteration and input characters.
-

-\hline
-Input & k && m & v & G & & s & e & D & g & i & L & & t & U \\

-\end{tabular}
-\end{center}
-
-In order to show the construction of the Soyombo characters (for
-writing text books, etc.) one blind or dummy character {\soyombo `}
-was created which does not appear in the original alphabet.
-
-The symbols used for
-writing Sanskrit and Tibetan are accessed by control sequences
-in the form of \verb"\sXX" where \verb"\s" stands for Soyombo
-and {\tt XX} has to be replaced by a one-, two- or three-letter
-combination found in the encoding table.

-\section{Desiderata}
-The package in its present stage cannot be regarded complete.
-Some of the letter shapes still need a bit of refinement, and
-maybe there is even the possibility to create more typeface variants
-in order to reflect various printing styles.
-
-The input method works but is a bit clumsy to use; an input preprocessor
-translating properly spelled Mongolian into the Soyombo equivalent
-waits to be developed.
-
-Comments and suggestions are highly appreciated and should be
-directed to the author of these lines at \verb"corff@zedat.fu-berlin.de".
