1. SUMMARY

Currently, the babel package does not provide a Japanese option.
This package behaves in a similar way as if you provided
(non-existent) Japanese option in the babel package so that you
can handle Japanese language with it.


2. ENCODINGS

Japanese language has three major encodings: EUC-JP, JIS and
SJIS (you may want to add UTF-8 to the above). A user must adapt
this package to the Japanese encoding he/she is using.

The included japanese.dtx is encoded in JIS (ISO-2022-JP). Users
using other encodings must covert that file to suit their
environment before installation. Do the following in the directory
which contain japanese.dtx:

 1) EUC-JP
    mv japanese.dtx japanese.dtx.orig
    iconv -f ISO-2022-JP -t EUC-JP japanese.dtx.orig > japanese.dtx

 2) SJIS (for Windows)
    mv japanese.dtx japanese.dtx.ori
    iconv -f ISO-2022-JP -t CP932 japanese.dtx.orig > japanese.dtx


3. INSTALLATION

 1) Process japanese.ins with a TeX which is capable of handling
    Japanese language, e.g.

        ptex japanese.ins

 2) Read langxmpl.dat and create language.dat file following the
    instruction of the file (you may simply rename it).

 3) Process documentation, readme.tex and sample.tex, as you wish.

 4) Deploy the directory or files in an appropriate place under
    the TeX tree.

 5) Execute mktexlsr.
