Abstract

Obsolete package for Greek in text.

News

The lgrx package is obsoleted by greek-fontenc and greek-inputenc.

2013-05-28

The new package greek-fontenc provides a comprehensive LGR -font encoding file lgrenc.def, that supersedes both this -bundles lgrxenc.def and the minimal lgrenc.def -that used to be part of babel-greek

2013-05-28

The file lgrenc.dfu (support for Unicode input) moved to -the greek-inputenc package.

2013-06-03

alphabeta.sty enables Unicode input in math mode,

textalpha.sty and alphabeta.sty require lgrenc.def -from greek-fontenc instead of lgrxenc.def,

lgrxenc.def now loads lgrenc.def and adds some -backwards compatibility definitions.

2013-09-13

alphabeta.sty and textalpha.sty moved to greek-fontenc -and now also support XeTeX/LuaTeX.

Usage

To update existing documents, replace, e.g.,

\usepackage[LGRx,T1]{fontenc}
-

with

\usepackage[LGR,T1]{fontenc}
-

No change is required for documents using the textalpha or alphabeta -packages now bundled with greek-fontenc.

Usage

This file is only kept for backwards compatibility with existing documents.

For new documents, use lgrenc.def from greek-fontenc (which is also -required by this file).

Example:

Select font encodings T1 (as default) and LGR:

\usepackage[LGR,T1]{fontenc}
-

Select font encodings T1 and (as default) LGR:

\usepackage[T1,LGR]{fontenc}
-

Babel’s “greek” option and the textalpha and alphabeta packages also load -lgrenc.def, so after any of the following lines, “LGR” is declared and -set up as a font encoding:

\usepackage[greek,english]{babel} % default language English
-
-\usepackage[greek,english]{babel} % default language Greek
-
-\usepackage{textalpha}
-
-\usepackage{alphabeta}
-

Implementation

Identification

\ProvidesFile{lgrxenc.def}
-[2013/05/30 v0.8 comprehensive LGR Greek Font Encoding definitions]
-

Requirements

To declare and set up the LGR font encoding, we use the successor file -lgrenc.def from greek-fontenc:

\input{lgrenc.def}
-

Backwards compatibility definitions

\TextGreek is now called \ensuregreek:

\DeclareTextCommand{\TextGreek}{LGR}[1]{#1}
-

Additional Greek symbols

Compatibility aliases (defined via TextCommand so that up/downcasing works -without the need for additional uclclist entries.
