+shortdesc Mongolian LaTeX.
+longdesc MonTeX provides Mongolian and Manju for the TeX/LaTeX community.
+longdesc Mongolian is a language spoken in North East Asia, namely Mongolia
+longdesc and the Inner Mongol Autonomous Region of China. Today, it is
+longdesc written in an extended Cyrillic alphabet in Mongolia whereas the
+longdesc Uighur writing continues to be in use in Inner Mongolia, though it
+longdesc is also, legally speaking, the official writing system of
+longdesc Mongolia. Manju is another language of North East Asia, belonging
+longdesc to the Tungusic branch of the Altaic languages. Though it is
+longdesc virtually not spoken anymore, it survives in written form as Manju
+longdesc was the native language of the rulers of the Qing dynasty (1644--
+longdesc 1911) in China. Large quantities of documents of the Imperial
+longdesc Archives survive, as well as some of the finest dictionaries ever
+longdesc compiled in Asia, like the Pentaglot, a dictionary comprising
+longdesc Manju, Tibetan, Mongolian, Uighur and Chinese. MonTeX provides all
+longdesc necessary characters for writing standard Mongolian in Cyrillic
+longdesc and Classical (aka Traditional or Uighur) writing, and Manju as
+longdesc well as transliterated Tibetan texts, for which purpose a number
+longdesc of additional characters was created. In MonTeX, both Mongolian
+longdesc and Manju are entered in romanized form. The retransliteration
+longdesc (from Latin input to Mongolian and Manju output) is completely
+longdesc realized in TeX/Metafont so that no external preprocessor is
+longdesc required. Please note that most of the enhanced functions on
+longdesc MonTeX require a working e-LaTeX environment. This is especially
+longdesc true when compiling documents with Mongolian or Manju as the main
+longdesc document language. It is recommended to choose pdfelatex as the
+longdesc resulting PDF files are truly portable. Vertical text generated by
+longdesc MonTeX is not supported in DVI. This version of MonTeX makes all
+longdesc former versions of MonTeX and ManjuTeX obsolete. [description
