This is the translation of MetaPost version 1.004 user's manual to Russian language. It may be distributed and/or modified under the the same conditions as the original MetaPost manual. These conditions are specified at the end of `mpman-ru.tex' file. You have to use MetaPost version 1.000 or newer to compile pictures. If you want to use LH (CM-Super) fonts (this increases size of pdf upto 30%) then you should set `fontenc' option to `T2A' instead of 'LCYW'. The default fonts are virtual Type 1 CM Cyrillic fonts from the standard `tetex' (and others) distributions. You may take LCYW package at CTAN or http://litwr.narod.ru/tex.html Absence of the `cmap-cyr-vf' package produces lack of Unicode mapping for Russian labels in the MetaPost pictures. Index and bookmarks are produced by scripts for `awk' program. Index is sorted by `sort' program which is depend on the locale settings. The directory contains: bm-to-utf16be.awk ctabbing.sty extract-bm.awk idx1.awk idx2.awk idx3.awk Makefile manfig-ru.mp mpman.ist mpman-optab-ru.tex mpman-ru.bbl mpman-ru.pdf mpman-ru.tex README README.ru.koi8-r
