UTF8MeX                                                Wlodek Bzyl
==================================================================
June 2004

Attention: 
  due to bugs in Web2C and EncTeX UTF8MeX requires the latest 
  teTeX-beta (at least tetex-src-beta-2.96.6.20040715.tar.gz).

The UTF8MeX package is MeX based format which works with UTF-8 
encoded source files.

------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is free software, see COPYING for more details. 
The package consists of the following files:

README ................................................. this file
COPYING ............................... GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

utf8mex.ini .................. the ini files for making the format
utf8-pl.tex ............................ the code tables for UTF-8
utf8plsq.tex ................ the auxiliary files input by utf8-pl

utf8math.el ............. Emacs lisp package for easier math input

test.utf8.tex, test-math.utf8.tex .............. simple test files

Makefile ............ contains commands to generate the format and
                                         to compile the test files

------------------------------------------------------------------

MISCELLANEOUS INSTRUCTIONS

1. To install `utf8mex.fmt' format, first run `make'. 
This should produce the format file named `utf8mex.fmt'.
Copy this file to the place where other format files are 
stored and update the database file with `texhash'.

[recommended method for current distributions:
run texconfig, select menu Formats, add the following line
to fmtutil.cnf
utf8mex pdfetex mexconf.tex -enc *utf8mex.ini
save the file and quit the editor; the format will be generated
and placed in the proper directory]

2. Run `make test'. This command creates `test.utf8.dvi' and
`test-math.utf8.dvi'. 

3. To browse TeX sources start `xterm' with something like
`xterm -en UTF-8 -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-*-iso10646-1'.
Next, in the xterm window execute `less test-math.utf8.tex' or
`less test.utf8.tex'.
