  The standard distribution of \LaTeX\ contains a number of document
  classes that are meant to be used, but also serve as examples for
  other users to create their own document classes.  These document
  classes have become very popular among \LaTeX\ users. But it should
  be kept in mind that they were designed for American tastes and
  typography. At one time they even contained a number of hard-wired
  texts.
  
  This manual describes \babel{}, a package that makes use of the
  capabilities of \TeX\ version 3 and, to some extent, \xetex{} and
  \luatex, to provide an environment in which documents can be typeset
  in a language other than US English, or in more than one language or
  script.

  However, no attempt has been done to take full advantage of the
  features provided by the latter, which would require a completely
  new core (as for example \file{polyglossia} or as part of \LaTeX3).

\section{The user interface}\label{U-I}

The basic user interface of this package is quite simple. It consists
of a set of commands that switch from one language to another, and a
set of commands that deal with shorthands. It is also possible to find
out what the current language is.

In most cases, a single language is required, and then all you need in
\LaTeX{} is to load the package using its standand mechanism for this
purpose, namely, passing that language as an optional argument. In
addition, you may want to set the font and input encodings. Here is a
simple full example:
\begin{verbatim}[escapechar=\&]
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage[frenchb]{babel}

\begin{document}

Plus &\c c&a change, plus c'est la m&\^e&me chose!

\end{document}
\end{verbatim}

\begin{warning} 
A common source of trouble is a wrong setting of the input
encoding. Make sure you set the encoding actually used by your editor.
\end{warning}

In multilingual documents, just use several option. So, in \LaTeX2e\
the preamble of the document:
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[dutch,english]{babel}
\end{verbatim}
would tell \LaTeX\ that the document would be written in two
languages, Dutch and English, and that English would be the first
language in use, and the main one. You can also set the main language
explicitly:
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[main=english,dutch]{babel}
\end{verbatim}
Another approach is making \Lopt{dutch} and \Lopt{english} global
options in order to let other packages detect and use them:

\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass[dutch,english]{article}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{varioref}
\end{verbatim}

In this last example, the package \texttt{varioref} will also see
the options and will be able to use them.

Languages may be set as global and as package option at the same
time, but in such a case you should set explicitly the main language
with the package option |main|:
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass[italian]{book}
\usepackage[ngerman,main=italian]{babel}
\end{verbatim}

\New{3.9c} The basic behaviour of some languages can be modified when
loading \babel{} by means of \textit{modifiers}. They are set after
the language name, and are prefixed with a dot (only when the language
is set as package option -- neither global options nor the |main| key
accept them). An example is (spaces are not significant and they can
be added or removed):\footnote{No predefined ``axis'' for modifiers
are provided because languages and their scripts have quite different
needs.}
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage[latin.medieval, spanish.notilde.lcroman, danish]{babel}
\end{verbatim}

Attributes (described below) are considered modifiers, ie, you can
set an attribute by including it in the list of modifiers. However,
modifiers is a more general mechanism.

\begin{note}
  Because of the way \babel{} has evolved, ``language'' can refer to
  (1) a set of hyphenation patterns as preloaded into the format, (2)
  a package option, (3) an |ldf| file, and (4) a name used in the
  document to select a language or dialect. So, a package option
  refers to a language in a generic way -- sometimes it is the actual
  language name used to select it, sometimes it is a file name loading
  a language with a different name, sometimes it is a file name
  loading several languages. Please, read the documentation for
  specific languages for further info.
\end{note}


Loading directly |sty| files in \LaTeX{} (ie,
|\usepackage|\marg{language}) is deprecated and you will get the
error:\footnote{In former versions the error read ``You have used an
old interface to call babel'', not very helpful.}
\begin{verbatim}
! Package babel Error: You are loading directly a language style.
(babel)                This syntax is deprecated and you must use
(babel)                \usepackage[language]{babel}.
\end{verbatim}

Another typical error when using \babel{} is the
following:\footnote{In former versions the error read ``You haven't
loaded the language LANG yet''.}
\begin{verbatim}
! Package babel Error: Unknown language `LANG'. Either you have misspelled
(babel)                its name, it has not been installed, or you requested
(babel)                it in a previous run. Fix its name, install it or just
(babel)                rerun the file, respectively
\end{verbatim}
The most frequent reason is, by far, the latest (for example, you
included |spanish|, but you realized this language is not used after
all, and therefore you removed it from the option list). In most cases,
the error vanishes when the document is typeset again, but in more
severe ones you will need to remove the |aux| file.

In Plain, load languages styles with |\input| and then use
|\begindocument| (the latter is defined by \babel):
\begin{verbatim}[morekeywords={[0]{\input,\begindocument}}]
\input estonian.sty
\begindocument
\end{verbatim}
Note not all languages provide a |sty| file and some of them are
not compatible with Plain.\footnote{Even in the \babel{} kernel there
were some macros not compatible with plain. Hopefully these issues will
be fixed soon.}

\subsection{Selecting languages}

This section describes the commands to be used in the document to
switch the language in multilingual document.

The main language is selected automatically when the |document|
environment begins. In the preamble it has \textit{not} been selected,
except hyphenation patterns and the name assigned to |\languagename|
(in particular, shorthands, captions and date are not activated). If
you need to define boxes and the like in the preamble, you might want
to use some of the following commands.

\Describe\selectlanguage{\marg{language}}
When a user wants to switch from one language to another he can
do so using the macro |\selectlanguage|. This macro takes the
language, defined previously by a language definition file, as
its argument. It calls several macros that should be defined in
the language definition files to activate the special definitions
for the language chosen. For ``historical reasons'', a macro name is
converted to a language name without the leading |\|; in other words,
the two following declarations are equivalent:
\begin{verbatim}
\selectlanguage{german}
\selectlanguage{\german}
\end{verbatim}
Using a macro instead of a ``real'' name is deprecated.

If used inside braces there might be some non-local changes, as this
would be  roughly equivalent to:
\begin{verbatim}
{\selectlanguage{<inner-language>} ...}\selectlanguage{<outer-language>}
\end{verbatim}
If you want a change which is really local, you must enclose this
code with an additional grouping level.

This command can be used as environment, too.

\Describe{\begin\menv{otherlanguage}}{\marg{language}\Eenv{otherlanguage}}

The environment \Lenv{otherlanguage} does basically the same as
|\selectlanguage|, except the language change is (mostly) local to
the environment. 

Actually, there might be some non-local changes, as this environment
is roughly equivalent to:
\begin{verbatim}
\begingroup
\selectlanguage{<inner-language>}
...
\endgroup
\selectlanguage{<outer-language>}
\end{verbatim}
If you want a change which is really local, you must enclose this
environment with an additional grouping, like braces |{}|.

Spaces after the environment are ignored.

\Describe\foreignlanguage{\marg{language}\marg{text}}
The command |\foreignlanguage| takes two arguments; the second
argument is a phrase to be typeset according to the rules of the
language named in its first one. This command (1) only switches the
extra definitions and the hyphenation rules for the language,
\emph{not} the names and dates, (2) does not send information about
the language to auxiliary files (i.e., the surrounding language is
still in force), and (3) it works even if the language has not been
set as package option (but in such a case it only sets the hyphenation
patterns and a warning is shown).

\Describe{\begin\menv{otherlanguage*}}%
{\marg{language}\Eenv{otherlanguage*}}

Same as |\foreignlanguage| but as environment. Spaces after the
environment are \textit{not} ignored.

This environment was also intended for intermixing left-to-right
typesetting with right-to-left typesetting in engines not supporting a
change in the writing direction inside a line. However, its behaviour
is not always the expected one.

\Describe{\begin\menv{hyphenrules}}{\marg{language}\Eenv{hyphenrules}}

The environment \Lenv{hyphenrules} can be used to select \emph{only}
the hyphenation rules to be used (it can be used as command,
too). This can for instance be used to select `nohyphenation',
provided that in \file{language.dat} the `language'
\textsf{nohyphenation} is defined by loading \file{zerohyph.tex}. It
deactivates language shorthands, too (but not user shorthands).

Except for these simple uses, |hyphenrules| is discouraged and
|otherlanguage*| (the starred version) is preferred, as the former
does not take into account possible changes in encodings or characters
like, say, |'| done by some languages (eg, \textsf{italian},
\textsf{frenchb}, \textsf{ukraineb}). To set hyphenation exceptions,
use |\babelhyphenation| (see below).

\subsection{More on selection}

\Describe\babeltags{\char`\{\m{tag1} \texttt{=} \m{language1}, \m{tag2}
\texttt{=} \m{language2}, \dots\char`\}} 

\New{3.9i} In multilingual documents with many language switches the commands
above can be cumbersome. With this tool shorter names can be
defined. It adds nothing really new -- it is just syntactical sugar.

It defines |\text|\m{tag1}\marg{text} to be
|\foreignlanguage|\marg{language1}\marg{text}, and |\begin|\marg{tag1}
to be |\begin{otherlanguage*}|\marg{language1}, and so on. Note
|\|\m{tag1} is also allowed, but remember set it locally inside a
group. So, with
\begin{verbatim}
\babeltags{de = german}
\end{verbatim}
yo can write
\begin{verbatim}
text \textde{German text} text
\end{verbatim}
and
\begin{verbatim}
text
\begin{de}
German text
\end{de}
text
\end{verbatim}

Something like \verb|\babeltag{finnish = finnish}| is legitimate -- it
defines |\textfinnish| and |\finnish|.
\Describe\babelensure{|[include=|\m{commands}|,exclude=|\m{commands}%
  |,fontenc=|\m{encoding}|]|\marg{language}}

\New{3.9i} Except in a few languages, like Russian, captions and
dates are just strings, and do not switch the language. That means
you should set it explicitly if you want to use them, or hyphenation
(and in some cases the text itself) will be wrong. For example:
\begin{verbatim}
\foreignlanguage{russian}{text \foreignlanguage{polish}{\seename} text}
\end{verbatim}

Of course, \TeX{} can do it for you. To avoid switching the language
all the while, |\babelensure| redefines the captions for a given
language to wrap them with a selector. By default only the basic
captions and |\today| are redefined, but you can add further macros
with the key |include| in the optional argument (without
commas). Macros not to be modified are listed in |exclude|. You can
also enforce a font encoding with |fontenc|.\footnote{With it encoded
string may not work as expected.} A couple of examples:
\begin{verbatim}
\babelensure[include=\Today]{spanish}
\babelensure[fontenc=T5]{vietnamese}
\end{verbatim}

They are activated when the language is selected (at the |afterextras|
event), and it makes some assumptions which could not be fulfilled in
some languages. Note also you should include only macros defined by
the language, not global macros (eg, |\TeX| of |\dag|).

\subsection{Getting the current language name}

\Describe\languagename{}
The control sequence |\languagename| contains the name of the
current language. However, due to some internal inconsistencies in
catcodes it should \textit{not} be used to test its value (use
\textsf{iflang}, by Heiko Oberdiek).

\Describe\iflanguage{\marg{language}\marg{true}\marg{false}}

If more than one language is used, it might be necessary to know which
language is active at a specific time. This can be checked by a call
to |\iflanguage|, but note here ``language'' is used in the \TeX\
sense, as a set of hyphenation patterns, and \textit{not} as its
\textsf{babel} name. This macro takes three arguments.  The first
argument is the name of a language; the second and third arguments are
the actions to take if the result of the test is true or false
respectively. The advice about |\languagename| also applies here --
use \textsf{iflang} instead of |\iflanguage| if possible.

\subsection{Selecting scripts}

Currently \babel{} provides no standard interface to select 
scripts, because they are best selected with either |\fontencoding|
(low level) or a language name (high level). Even the Latin script may
require different encodings (ie, sets of glyphs) depending on the
language, and therefore such a switch would be in a sense
incomplete.\footnote{The so-called Unicode fonts do not improve the
situation either. So, a font suited for Vietnamese is not necessarily
suited for, say, the romanization of Indic languages, and the fact it
contains glyphs for Modern Greek does not mean it includes them for
Classic Greek. As to directionality, it poses special challenges
because it also affects individual characters and layout elements.}

Some languages sharing the same script define macros to switch it (eg,
|\textcyrillic|), but be aware they may also set the language to a
certain default. Even the \babel{} core defined |\textlatin|, but is
was somewhat buggy because in some cases it messed up encodings and
fonts (for example, if the main latin encoding was |LY1|), and
therefore it has been deprecated.\footnote{But still defined for
backwards compatibility.}

\Describe{\ensureascii}{\marg{text}}

\New{3.9i} This macro makes sure \m{text} is typeset with a
LICR-savvy encoding in the ASCII range. It is used to redefine |\TeX|
and |\LaTeX| so that they are correctly typeset even with |LGR| or
|X2| (the complete list is stored in |\BabelNonASCII|, which by default
is |LGR|, |X2|, |OT2|, |OT3|, |OT6|, |LHE|, |LWN|, |LMA|, |LMC|,
|LMS|, |LMU|, but you can modify it). So, in some sense it fixes the
bug described in the previous paragraph.

If non-ASCII encodings are not loaded (or no encoding at all), it is
no-op (also |\TeX| and |\LaTeX| are not redefined); otherwise,
|\ensureascii| switches to the encoding at the beginning of the
document if ASCII-savvy, or else the last ASCII-savvy encoding
loaded. For example, if you load |LY1,LGR|, then it is set to |LY1|,
but if you load |LY1,T2A| it is set to |T2A|. The symbol encodings
|TS1|, |T3|, and |TS3| are not taken into account, since they are not
used for ``ordinary'' text.

The foregoing rules (which are applied ``at begin document'') cover
most of cases. Note no asumption is made on characters above
127, which may not follow the LICR conventions -- the goal is just
to ensure most of the ASCII letters and symbols are the right ones.

\subsection{Shorthands}

A \textit{shorthand} is a sequence of one or two characters that
expands to arbitrary \TeX{} code.

Shorthands can be used for different kinds of things, as for example:
(1) in some languages shorthands such as |"a| are defined to be able
to hyphenate the word if the encoding is |OT1|; (2) in some languages
shorthands such as |!| are used to insert the right amount of white
space; (3) several kinds of discretionaries and breaks can be inserted
easily with |"-|, |"=|, etc.

The package \textsf{inputenc} as well as \xetex{} an \luatex{} have
alleviated entering non-ASCII characters, but minority languages and
some kinds of text can still require characters not directly
available in the keyboards (and sometimes not even as separated or
precomposed Unicode characters). As to the point 2, now
\textsf{pdfTeX} provides |\knbccode|. Tools of point 3 can be still
very useful in general.

There are three levels of shorthands: \textit{user},
\textit{language}, and \textit{system} (by order of
precedence). Version 3.9 introduces the \textit{language user} level
on top of the user level, as described below. In most cases, you will
use only shorthands provided by languages.

Please, note the following:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Activated chars used for two-char shorthands cannot be followed
  by a closing brace |}| and the spaces following are gobbled.  With
  one-char shorthands (eg,~|:|), they are preserved.
\item If on a certain level (system, language, user) there is a
  one-char shorthand, two-char ones starting with that 
  char and on the same level are ignored.
\item Since they are active, a shorthand cannot contain the same
  character in its definition (except if it is deactivated with, eg,
  |string|).
\end{enumerate}

A typical error when using shorthands is the following:
\begin{verbatim}
! Argument of \language@active@arg" has an extra }.
\end{verbatim}
It means there is a closing brace just after a shorthand, which is not
allowed (eg,~|"}|). Just add |{}| after (eg,~|"{}}|). 

\Describe{\shorthandon}{\marg{shorthands-list}}
\DescribeOther{\shorthandoff}{%
\colorbox{thegrey}{\ttfamily\hskip-.2em*\hskip-.2em}%
\marg{shorthands-list}}
It is sometimes necessary to switch a shorthand
character off temporarily, because it must be used in an
entirely different way. For this purpose, the user commands
|\shorthandoff| and |\shorthandon| are provided. They each take a
list of characters as their arguments.

The command |\shorthandoff| sets the |\catcode| for each of the
characters in its argument to other (12); the command |\shorthandon|
sets the |\catcode| to active (13). Both commands only work on `known'
shorthand characters. If a character is not known to be a shorthand
character its category code will be left unchanged.

\New{3.9a} Note however, |\shorthandoff| does not behave as
you would expect with characters like |~| or |^|, because they
usually are not ``other''. For them |\shorthandoff*| is provided,
so that with
\begin{verbatim}
\shorthandoff*{~^}
\end{verbatim}
|~| is still active, very likely with the meaning of a non-breaking
space, and |^| is the superscript character. The catcodes used are
those when the shorthands are defined, usually when language files are
loaded.

\Describe{\useshorthands}{%
\colorbox{thegrey}{\ttfamily\hskip-.2em*\hskip-.2em}%
\marg{char}}

The command |\useshorthands| initiates the definition of user-defined
shorthand sequences. It has one argument, the character that starts
these personal shorthands.

\New{3.9a} However, user shorthands are not always alive, as they may
be deactivated by languages (for example, if you use |"| for your user
shorthands and switch from \textsf{german} to \textsf{french}, they
stop working). Therefore, a starred version
|\useshorthands*|\marg{char} is provided, which makes sure shorthands
are always activated.

Currently, if the package option |shorthands| is used, you must include any
character to be activated with |\useshorthands|. This restriction will
be lifted in a future release.

\Describe\defineshorthand{\texttt{[}\langlist\texttt{]}%^^A
     \marg{shorthand}\marg{code}}

The command |\defineshorthand| takes two arguments: the first is
a one- or two-character shorthand sequence, and the second is the
code the shorthand should expand to.

\New{3.9a} An optional argument allows to (re)define language
and system shorthands (some languages do not activate shorthands,
so you may want to add |\languageshorthands|\marg{lang} to the
corresponding |\extras|\m{lang}). By default, user shorthands are
(re)defined.

User shorthands override language ones, which in turn override
system shorthands. Language-dependent user shorthands (new in
3.9) take precedence over ``normal'' user shorthands.

As an example of their applications, let's assume you want a
unified set of shorthand for discretionaries (languages do not
define shorthands consistently, and |"-|, |\-|, |"=| have
different meanings).  You could start with, say:
\begin{verbatim}
\useshorthands*{"}
\defineshorthand{"*}{\babelhyphen{soft}}
\defineshorthand{"-}{\babelhyphen{hard}}
\end{verbatim}
However, behaviour of hyphens is language dependent. For example, in
languages like Polish and Portugese, a hard hyphen inside compound
words are repeated at the beginning of the next line. You could then
set:
\begin{verbatim}[morekeywords={[1]{polish,portugese}}]
\defineshorthand[*polish,*portugese]{"-}{\babelhyphen{repeat}}
\end{verbatim}
Here, options with |*| set a language-dependent user shorthand, which
means the generic one above only applies for the rest of languages;
without |*| they would (re)define the language shorthands instead,
which are overriden by user ones.

Now, you have a single unified shorthand (|"-|), with a content-based
meaning (`compound word hyphen') whose visual behavior is that
expected in each context.

\Describe\aliasshorthand{\marg{original}\marg{alias}}

The command |\aliasshorthand| can be used to let another
character perform the same functions as the default shorthand
character. If one prefers for example to use the character |/|
over |"| in typing Polish texts, this can be achieved by entering
|\aliasshorthand{"}{/}|. \emph{Please note} the substitute
character must \textit{not} have been declared before as
shorthand (in such case, |\aliashorthands| is ignored).

The following example shows how to replace a shorthand by another
\begin{verbatim}[morekeywords={[0]{\aliasshorthand}}]
\aliasshorthand{~}{^}
\AtBeginDocument{\shorthandoff*{~}}
\end{verbatim}
However, shorthands remember somehow the original character, and the
fallback value is that of the latter. So, in this example, if no
shorthand if found, |^| expands to a non-breaking space, because this
is the value of |~| (internally, |^| calls |\active@char~| or
|\normal@char~|). Furthermore, if you change the |system| value of |^|
with |\defineshorthand| nothing happens.

\Describe\languageshorthands{\marg{language}} The command
|\languageshorthands| can be used to switch the shorthands on the
language level. It takes one argument, the name of a language or
|none| (the latter does what its name suggests).\footnote{Actually,
any name not corresponding to a language group does the same as
\texttt{none}. However, follow this convention because it might be
enforced in future releases of \babel{} to catch possible errors.}
Note that for this to work the language should have been specified as
an option when loading the \babel\ package.  For example, you can use
in \textsf{english} the shorthands defined by \textsf{ngerman} with
\begin{verbatim}
\addto\extrasenglish{\languageshorthands{ngerman}}
\end{verbatim}
(You may also need to activate them with, for example,
|\useshorthands|.)

Very often, this is a more convenient way to deactivate shorthands
than |\shorthandoff|, as for example if you want to define a macro
to easy typing phonetic characters with \textsf{tipa}:
\begin{verbatim}
\newcommand{\myipa}[1]{{\languageshorthands{none}\tipaencoding#1}}
\end{verbatim}

\Describe\babelshorthand{\marg{shorthand}}
With this command you can use a shorthand even if (1) not activated in
\texttt{shorthands} (in this case only shorthands for the current
language are taken into account, ie, not user shorthands), (2) turned
off with |\shorthandoff| or (3) deactivated with the internal
|\bbl@deactivate|; for example, \verb|\babelshorthand{"u}| or
\verb|\babelshorthand{:}|.  (You can conveniently define your own
macros, or even you own user shorthands provided they do not ovelap.)

For your records, here is a list of shorthands, but you must check
them, as they may change:\footnote{Thanks to Enrico Gregorio}

\item[Czech] |" -|
\item[Esperanto] |^|
\item[Estonian] |" ~|
\item[French] (all varieties) |: ; ? !|

\item[Latin] |" ^ =|
\item[Slovak] |" ^ ' -|
\item[Spanish] |" . < > '|
\item[Turkish] |: ! =|
\end{description}
In addition, the \babel{} core declares |~| as a one-char shorthand
which is let, like the standard |~|, to a non breaking
space.\footnote{This declaration serves to nothing, but it is
preserved for backward compatibility.}

\subsection{Package options}

\New{3.9a}
These package options are processed before language options, so
that they are taken into account irrespective of its order. The first
three options have been available in previous versions.

\Describe{KeepShorthandsActive}{}
Tells babel not to deactivate shorthands after loading a language
file, so that they are also availabe in the preamble.

\Describe{activeacute}{} For some languages \babel\ supports this
options to set |'| as a shorthand in case it is not done by default.

\Describe{activegrave}{}
Same for |`|.

\Describe{shorthands=}{\meta{char}\meta{char}...
$\string|$ \texttt{off}}
The only language shorthands activated
are those given, like, eg:
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage[esperanto,frenchb,shorthands=:;!?]{babel}
\end{verbatim} 
If \verb|'| is included, \texttt{activeacute} is set; if \verb|`| is
included, \texttt{activegrave} is set.  Active characters (like
\verb|~|) should be preceded by \verb|\string| (otherwise they will be
expanded by \LaTeX{} before they are passed to the package and
therefore they will not be recognized); however, |t| is provided for
the common case of |~| (as well as |c| for not so common case of the
comma).

With |shorthands=off| no language shorthands are defined,
As some languages use this mechanism for tools not available
otherwise, a macro \verb|\babelshorthand| is defined, which allows
using them; see above.

\Describe{safe=}{\texttt{none} $\string|$ \texttt{ref} $\string|$
\texttt{bib}} Some \LaTeX{} macros are redefined so that using
shorthands is safe. With \texttt{safe=bib} only |\nocite|, |\bibcite|
and |\bibitem| are redefined. With |safe=ref| only |\newlabel|, |\ref|
and |\pageref| are redefined (as well as a few macros from
\textsf{varioref} and \textsf{ifthen}). With |safe=none| no macro is
redefined. This option is strongly recommended, because a good deal of
incompatibilities and errors are related to these redefinitions -- of
course, in such a case you cannot use shorthands in these macros, but
this is not a real problem (just use ``allowed'' characters). 

\Describe{math=}{\texttt{active} $\string|$ \texttt{normal}}
Shorthands are mainly intended for text, not for math. By setting this
option with the value |normal| they are deactivated in math mode
(default is |active|) and things like |${a'}$| (a closing brace after
a shorthand) are not a source of trouble any more.

\Describe{config=}{\meta{file}} Load \meta{file}\texttt{.cfg} instead
of the default config file |bblopts.cfg| (the file is loaded even
with |noconfigs|).

\Describe{main=}{\meta{language}} Sets the main language, as explained
above, ie, this language is always loaded last. If it is not given as
package or global option, it is added to the list of requested
languages.

\Describe{headfoot=}{\meta{language}} By default, headlines and
footlines are not touched (only marks), and if they contain language
dependent macros (which is not usual) there may be unexpected
results. With this option you may set the language in heads and foots.

\Describe{noconfigs}{} Global and language default config files are
not loaded, so you can make sure your document is not spoilt by an
unexpected \texttt{.cfg} file. However, if the key |config| is set,
this file is loaded.

\Describe{showlanguages}{} Prints to the log the list of languages
loaded when the format was created: number (remember dialects can
share it), name, hyphenation file and exceptions file. 

\Describe{nocase}{} \New{3.9l} Language settings for uppercase and
lowercase mapping (as set by |\SetCase|) are ignored. Use only if there
are incompatibilities with other packages.

\Describe{silent}{} \New{3.9l} No warnings and no \textit{infos} are
written to the log file.\footnote{You can use alternatively the
package \textsf{silence}.}

\Describe{strings=}{\texttt{generic} $\string|$ \texttt{unicode}
$\string|$ \texttt{encoded} $\string|$ \meta{label} $\string|$
\meta{font encoding}} Selects the encoding of strings in languages
supporting this feature. Predefined labels are |generic| (for
traditional \TeX, LICR and ASCII strings), |unicode| (for engines like
\xetex{} and \luatex) and |encoded| (for special cases requiring mixed
encodings). Other allowed values are font encoding codes (|T1|, |T2A|,
|LGR|, |L7X|...), but only in languages supporting them. Be aware with
|encoded| captions are protected, but they work in |\MakeUppercase|
and the like.

\Describe{hyphenmap=}{\texttt{off} $\string|$ \texttt{main}
$\string|$ \texttt{select} $\string|$ \texttt{other} $\string|$
\texttt{other*}}

\New{3.9g} Sets the behaviour of case mapping for hyphenation,
provided the language defines it.\footnote{Turned off in plain.} It
can take the following values:
\begin{description}
\renewcommand\makelabel[1]{%
  \hspace\labelsep\normalfont\ttfamily\color{thered}#1}
\itemsep=-\parskip
\item[off] deactivates this feature and no case mapping is applied;
\item[first] sets it at the first switching commands in the
  current or parent scope (typically, when the aux file is first read
  and at |\begin{document}|, but also the first |\selectlanguage| in
    the preamble), and it's the default if a single
    language option has been stated;\footnote{Duplicated options count
    as several ones.}
\item[select] sets it only at |\selectlanguage|;
\item[other] also sets it at |otherlanguage|;
\item[other*] also sets it at |otherlanguage*| as well as in heads and
  foots (if the option |headfoot| is used) and in auxiliary files (ie,
  at |\select@language|), and it's the default if several language
  options have been stated. The option |first| can be regarded as an
  optimized version of \texttt{other*} for monolingual
  documents.\footnote{Providing |foreign| is pointless, because the
  case mapping applied is that at the end of paragraph, but if either
  \xetex{} or \luatex{} change this behaviour it might be added. On
  the other hand, |other| is provided even if I [JBL] think it isn't
  really useful, but who knows.}
\end{description}

\subsection{The \texttt{base} option}

With this package option \babel{} just loads some basic macros (those
in |switch.def|), defines |\AfterBabelLanguage| and exits. It also
selects the hyphenations patterns for the last language passed as
option (by its name in |language.dat|). There are two main uses:
classes and packages, and as a last resort in case there are, for some
reason, incompatible languages. It can be used if you just want to
select the hyphenations patterns of a single language, too.

\Describe\AfterBabelLanguage{\marg{option-name}\marg{code}}

This command is currently the only provided by |base|. Executes
\meta{code} when the file loaded by the corresponding package option
is finished (at |\ldf@finish|). The setting is global. So
\begin{verbatim}
\AfterBabelLanguage{frenchb}{...}
\end{verbatim}
does ... at the end of |frenchb.ldf|. It can be used in |ldf| files,
too, but in such a case the code is executed only if
\meta{option-name} is the same as |\CurrentOption| (which could not
be the same as the option name as set in |\usepackage|!). 

For example, consider two languages \textsf{foo} and \textsf{bar}
defining the same |\macro| with |\newcommand|. An error is raised if
you attempt to load both. Here is a way to overcome this problem:
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage[base]{babel}
\AfterBabelLanguage{foo}{%
  \let\macroFoo\macro
  \let\macro\relax}
\usepackage[foo,bar]{babel}
\end{verbatim}

\subsection{Creating a language}

\New{3.10} And what if there is no style for your language or none
fits your needs? You may then define quickly a language with the
help of the following macro in the preamble.

\Describe\babelprovide{\oarg{options}\marg{language-name}}

Defines the internal structure of the language with some defaults: the
hyphen rules, if not available, are set to the current ones, left and
right hyphen mins are set to 2 and 3, but captions and date are not
defined. Conveniently, \babel{} warns you about what to do. Very
likely you will find warnings like that in the |log| file:
\begin{verbatim}
Package babel Warning: \mylangchaptername not set. Please, define
(babel)                it in the preamble with something like:
(babel)                \renewcommand\maylangchaptername{..}
(babel)                Reported on input line 18.
\end{verbatim}

In most cases, you will only need to define a few macros. 

For example, if you need a language named |arhinish|:
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage[danish]{babel}
\babelprovide{arhinish}
\renewcommand\arhinishchaptername{Chapitula}
\renewcommand\arhinishrefname{Refirenke}
\renewcommand\arhinishhyphenmins{22}
\end{verbatim}

The main language is not changed (\texttt{danish} in this example).
So, you must add |\selectlanguage{arhinish}| or other selectors when
necessary.

\Describe{captions=}{\meta{language-tag}}
Currently, the \oarg{options} may be used to load captions from an
|ini| file, but note these files are still tentative and might change.
For example:
\begin{verbatim}
\babelprovide[captions=hu]{hungarian}
\end{verbatim}
It just loads the strings, no more. Encoding, font,
\textsf{fontspec} language and script, writing direction, etc., are
not touched at all. Unicode engines load the UTF-8 variants, while
8-bit engines load the LICR (ie, with macros like |\'| or |\ss|) ones.

\Describe{hyphenrules=}{\meta{language-list}} With this option, with a
space-separated list of hyphenation rules, \babel{} assigns to the
language the first valid hyphenation rules in the list. For example:
\begin{verbatim}
\babelprovide[hyphenrules=chavacano spanish italian]{chavacano}
\end{verbatim}
If none of the listed hyphenrules exist, the default behaviour
applies. Note in this example we set |chavacano| as first option --
without it, it would select |spanish| even if |chavacano| exists.

A special value is |+|, which allocates a new language (in the \TeX{}
sense). It only makes sense as the last value (or the only one; the
subsequent ones are silently ignored). It is mostly useful with
\luatex, because you can add some patterns with |\babelpatterns|, as
for example:
\begin{verbatim}
\babelprovide[hyphenrules=+]{neo}
\babelpatterns[neo]{a1 e2 i1 o1 u1}
\end{verbatim}
In other engines it just supresses hyphenation (because the pattern
list is empty).

\Describe{main}{} This valueless option makes the language the main
one. Only in newly defined languages.

\begin{note}
  (1) Setting \verb|\today| is not so easy, and requires more work
  (some tools are on the way). (2) If you need shorthands, you can use
  |\useshorthands| and |\defineshorthand| as described above. (3)
  Captions and |\today| are ``ensured'' with |\babelensure| (because
  this will be the default in |ini|-based languages).
\end{note}

\subsection{Hooks}

\New{3.9a} A hook is a piece of code to be executed at certain
events. Some hooks are predefined when \luatex{} and \xetex{} are
used.

\Describe\AddBabelHook{\marg{name}\marg{event}\marg{code}}

The same name can be applied to several events.  Hooks may be enabled
and disabled for all defined events with
|\EnableBabelHook|\marg{name}, |\DisableBabelHook|\marg{name}. Names
containing the string |babel| are reserved (they are used, for
example, by |\useshortands*| to add a hook for the event
|afterextras|).

Current events are the following; in some of them you can use one to
three \TeX{} parameters (|#1|, |#2|, |#3|), with the meaning given:
\begin{description}
\renewcommand\makelabel[1]{%
  \hspace\labelsep\normalfont\ttfamily\color{thered}#1}
\itemsep=-\parskip
\item[adddialect] (language name, dialect name) Used by
  \file{luababel.def} to load the patterns if not preloaded.
\item[patterns] (language name, language with encoding) Executed just
  after the |\language| has been set. The second argument has the
  patterns name actually selected (in the form of either |lang:ENC| or
  |lang|).
\item[hyphenation] (language name, language with encoding) Executed
  locally just before exceptions given in |\babelhyphenation| are
  actually set.
\item[defaultcommands] Used (locally) in |\StartBabelCommands|.
\item[encodedcommands] (input, font encodings) Used (locally) in
  |\StartBabelCommands|. Both \xetex{} and \luatex{} make sure the
  encoded text is read correctly.
\item[stopcommands] Used to reset the the above, if necessary.
\item[write] This event comes just after the switching commands are
  written to the |aux| file.
\item[beforeextras] Just before executing |\extras|\m{language}. This
  event and the next one should not contain language-dependent code
  (for that, add it to |\extras|\m{language}).
\item[afterextras] Just after executing |\extras|\m{language}. For
  example, the following deactivates shorthands in all languages:
\begin{verbatim}
\AddBabelHook{noshort}{afterextras}{\languageshorthands{none}}
\end{verbatim}
\item[stringprocess] Instead of a parameter, you can manipulate the
  macro |\BabelString| containing the string to be defined with
  |\SetString|. For example, to use an expanded version of the string
  in the definition, write:
\begin{verbatim}
\AddBabelHook{myhook}{stringprocess}{%
  \protected@edef\BabelString{\BabelString}}
\end{verbatim}
\item[initiateactive] (char as active, char as other, original char)
  \New{3.9i} Executed just after a shorthand has been `initiated'. The three
  parameters are the same character with different catcodes: active,
  other (|\string|'ed) and the original one.
\item[afterreset] \New{3.9i} Executed when selecting a language just after
  |\originalTeX| is run and reset to its base value, before executing
  |\captions|\m{language} and |\date|\m{language}.
\end{description}

Four events are used in \file{hyphen.cfg}, which are handled in a
quite different way for efficiency reasons -- unlike the precedent
ones, they only have a single hook and replace a default definition. 
\begin{description}
\renewcommand\makelabel[1]{%
  \hspace\labelsep\normalfont\ttfamily\color{thered}#1}
\itemsep=-\parskip
\item[everylanguage] (language) Executed before every language patterns are loaded.
\item[loadkernel] (file) By default loads |switch.def|. It can be used
  to load a different version of this files or to load nothing.
\item[loadpatterns] (patterns file) Loads the patterns file. Used by
  \file{luababel.def}.
\item[loadexceptions] (exceptions file) Loads the exceptions
  file. Used by \file{luababel.def}.
\end{description}

\Describe\BabelContentsFiles{}
\New{3.9a} This macro contains a list of ``toc'' types which
require a command to switch the language. Its default value is
|toc,lof,lot|, but you may redefine it with |\renewcommand| (it's up
to you to make sure no toc type is duplicated).

\subsection{Hyphenation tools}

\Describe\babelhyphen{%
  \colorbox{thegrey}{\ttfamily\hskip-.2em*\hskip-.2em}\marg{type}}
\DescribeOther\babelhyphen{%
  \colorbox{thegrey}{\ttfamily\hskip-.2em*\hskip-.2em}\marg{text}}

\New{3.9a} It is customary to classify hyphens in two types: (1)
\textit{explicit} or \textit{hard hyphens}, which in \TeX\ are
entered as \verb|-|, and (2) \textit{optional} or \textit{soft
hyphens}, which are entered as \verb|\-|. Strictly, a \textit{soft
hyphen} is not a hyphen, but just a breaking oportunity or, in
\TeX\ terms, a ``discretionary''; a \textit{hard hyphen} is a hyphen
with a breaking oportunity after it. A further type is a
\textit{non-breaking hyphen}, a hyphen without a breaking
oportunity.

In \TeX, \verb|-| and \verb|\-| forbid further breaking oportunities
in the word. This is the desired behaviour very often, but not
always, and therefore many languages provide shorthands for these
cases. Unfortunately, this has not been done consistently: for
example, in Dutch, Portugese, Catalan or Danish, \verb|"-| is a hard
hyphen, while in German, Spanish, Norwegian, Slovak or Russian, it
is a soft hyphen. Furthermore, some of them even redefine |\-|, so
that you cannot insert a soft hyphen without breaking oportunities
in the rest of the word.

Therefore, some macros are provide with a set of basic ``hyphens''
which can be used by themselves, to define a user shorthand, or even
in language files.
\begin{itemize}
\item |\babelhyphen{soft}| and |\babelhyphen{hard}| are self
  explanatory.
\item |\babelhyphen{repeat}| inserts a hard hyphen which is repeated
  at the beginning of the next line, as done in languages like
  Polish, Portugese and Spanish.
\item |\babelhyphen{nobreak}| inserts a hard hyphen without a break
  after it (even if a space follows).
\item |\babelhyphen{empty}| inserts a break oportunity without
  a hyphen at all.
\item |\babelhyphen|\marg{text} is a hard ``hyphen'' using \m{text}
  instead. A typical case is |\babelhyphen{/}|.
\end{itemize}
With all of them hyphenation in the rest of the word is enabled. If
you don't want enabling it, there is a starred counterpart:
|\babelhyphen*{soft}| (which in most cases is equivalent to the
original |\-|), |\babelhyphen*{hard}|, etc.

Note |hard| is also good for isolated prefixes (eg, \textit{anti-})
and |nobreak| for isolated suffixes (eg, \textit{-ism}), but in both
cases |\babelhyphen*{nobreak}| is usually better. 

There are also some differences with \LaTeX: (1) the character used is
that set for the current font, while in \LaTeX{} it is hardwired to
|-| (a typical value); (2) the hyphen to be used in fonts with a
negative |\hyphenchar| is  |-|, like in \LaTeX, but it can be changed to
another value by redefining |\babelnullhyphen|; (3) a break after the
hyphen is forbidden if preceded by a glue ${>}0$~pt (at the beginning
of a word, provided it is not immediately preceded by, say, a
parenthesis).

\Describe\babelhyphenation{\texttt{[}\langlist\texttt{]}%^^A
    \marg{exceptions}}

\New{3.9a} Sets hyphenation exceptions for the languages given
or, without the optional argument, for \textit{all} languages (eg,
proper nouns or common loan words, and of course monolingual
documents). Language exceptions take precedence over global ones.

It can be used only in the preamble, and exceptions are set when the
language is first selected, thus taking into account changes of
|\lccodes|'s done in |\extras|\m{lang} as well as the language specific
encoding (not set in the preamble by default). Multiple
|\babelhyphenation|'s are allowed. For example:
\begin{verbatim}
\babelhyphenation{Wal-hal-la Dar-bhan-ga}
\end{verbatim}

Listed words are saved expanded and therefore it relies on the
LICR. Of course, it also works without the LICR if the input and the
font encodings are the same, like in Unicode based engines.

\Describe\babelpatterns{\texttt{[}\langlist\texttt{]}%^^A
    \marg{patterns}}

\New{3.9m} \textit{In \textsf{luatex} only},\footnote{With
\textsf{luatex} exceptions and patterns can be modified almost
freely. However, this is very likely a task for a separate package
and \texttt{babel} only provides the most basic tools.} adds or
replaces patterns for the languages given or, without the optional
argument, for \textit{all} languages. If a pattern for a certain
combination already exists, it gets replaced by the new one.

It can be used only in the preamble, and patterns are added when the
language is first selected, thus taking into account changes of
|\lccodes|'s done in |\extras|\m{lang} as well as the language specific
encoding (not set in the preamble by default). Multiple
|\babelpatterns|'s are allowed.

Listed patterns are saved expanded and therefore it relies on the
LICR. Of course, it also works without the LICR if the input and the
font encodings are the same, like in Unicode based engines.

\subsection{Language attributes}

\DescribeMacro{\languageattribute}
This is a user-level command, to be used in the preamble of a
document (after |\usepackage[...]{babel}|), that declares which
attributes are to be used for a given language. It takes two
arguments: the first is the name of the language; the second,
a (list of) attribute(s) to be used. Attributes must be set in the
preamble and only once -- they cannot be turned on and off.
The command checks whether the language is known in this document
and whether the attribute(s) are known for this language.

Very often, using a \textit{modifier} in a package option is better.

Several language definition files use their own methods to set
options. For example, \textsf{frenchb} uses |\frenchbsetup|,
\textsf{magyar} (1.5) uses |\magyarOptions|; modifiers provided by
|spanish| have no attribute counterparts. Macros settting
options are also used (eg, |\ProsodicMarksOn| in \textsf{latin}).

\subsection{Languages supported by \babel}

In the following table most of the languages supported by \babel\ are
listed, together with the names of the options  which you can load
\babel\ with for each language. Note this list is open and the
current options may be different. 

\begin{description}

There are more languages not listed above, including \textsf{hindi,
thai, thaicjk, latvian, turkmen, magyar, mongolian, romansh,
lithuanian, spanglish, vietnamese, japanese, pinyin, arabic, farsi,
ibygreek, bgreek, serbianc, frenchle, ethiop} and \textsf{friulan}.

Most of them work out of the box, but some may require extra fonts,
encoding files, a preprocessor or even a complete framework (like
CJK).  For example, if you have got the \textsf{velthuis/devnag} package,
you can create a file with extension |.dn|:
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[hindi]{babel}
\begin{document}
{\dn devaanaa.m priya.h}
\end{document}
\end{verbatim}
Then you preprocess it with |devnag| \m{file}, which creates
\m{file}|.tex|; you can then typeset the latter with \LaTeX.

\subsection{Tips, workarounds, know issues and notes}

\begin{itemize}
\item If you use the document class \cls{book} \emph{and} you use
  |\ref| inside the argument of |\chapter| (or just use |\ref| inside
  |\MakeUppercase|), \LaTeX\ will keep complaining about an undefined
  label.  To prevent such problems, you could revert to using
  uppercase labels, you can use |\lowercase{\ref{foo}}| inside the
  argument of |\chapter|, or, if you will not use shorthands in
  labels, set the |safe| option to |none| or |bib|.

\item\catcode`\|=12\relax Both \textsf{ltxdoc} and \textsf{babel} use
  \verb|\AtBeginDocument| to change some catcodes, and babel reloads
  \textsf{hhline} to make sure \verb|:| has the right one, so if you
  want to change the catcode of \verb/|/ it has to be done using the
  same method at the proper place, with
\begin{verbatim}
\AtBeginDocument{\DeleteShortVerb{\|}}
\end{verbatim}
  \textit{before} loading babel. This way, when the document begins
  the sequence is (1) make \verb/|/ active (\textsf{ltxdoc}); (2) make
  it unactive (your settings); (3) make babel shorthands active
  (\textsf{babel)}; (4) reload \textsf{hhline} (\textsf{babel}, now
  with the correct catcodes for \verb/|/ and
  \verb|:|).\catcode`\|=\active

\item Documents with several input encodings are not frequent, but
  sometimes are useful. You can set different encodings for different
  languages as the following example shows:
\begin{verbatim}
\addto\extrasfrench{\inputencoding{latin1}}
\addto\extrasrussian{\inputencoding{koi8-r}}
\end{verbatim}
   (A recent version of \textsf{inputenc} is required.)
 \item For the hyphenation to work correctly, lccodes cannot change,
   because \TeX{} only takes into account the values when the
   paragraph is hyphenated, i.e., when it has been
   finished.\footnote{This explains why \LaTeX{} assumes the lowercase
   mapping of T1 and does not provide a tool for multiple
   mappings. Unfortunately, \cs{savinghyphcodes} is not a solution
   either, because lccodes for hyphenation are frozen in the format
   and cannot be changed.} So, if you write a chunk of French text
   with |\foreinglanguage|, the apostrophes might not be taken into
   account. This is a limitation of \TeX, not of
   \babel. Alternatively, you may use |\useshorthands| to activate |'|
   and |\defineshorthand|, or redefine |\textquoteright| (the latter
   is called by the non-ASCII right quote).
\item \verb|\bibitem| is out of sync with \verb|\selectlanguage| in
  the \file{.aux} file. The reason is \verb|\bibitem| uses
  \verb|\immediate| (and others, in fact), while
  \verb|\selectlanguage| doesn't. There is no known workaround.
\item Babel does not take into account |\normalsfcodes| and
  (non-)French spacing is not always properly (un)set by
  languages. However, problems are unlikely to happen and therefore
  this part remains untouched in version 3.9 (but it is in the `to
  do' list). 
\item Using a character mathematically active (ie, with math code
  |"8000|) as a shorthand can make \TeX{} enter in an infinite loop in
  some rare cases. (Another issue in the `to do' list, although there
  is a partial solution.)

\subsection{Future work}

Useful additions would be, for example, time, currency, addresses and
personal names.\footnote{See for example POSIX, ISO 14652 and the
Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR).}. But that is the easy
part, because they don't require modifying the \LaTeX{} internals.

More interesting are differences in the sentence structure or related to
it. For example, in Basque the number precedes the name (including
chapters), in Hungarian ``from (1)'' is ``(1)-b\H{o}l'', but ``from (3)''
is ``(3)-b\'{o}l'', in Spanish an item labelled
``3.$^{\textrm{\scriptsize o}}$'' may
be referred to as either ``\'{\i}tem 3.$^{\textrm{\scriptsize o}}$'' or ``3.$^{\textrm{\scriptsize er}}$ \'{\i}tem'', and so on.

Even more interesting is right-to-left, vertical and bidi
typesetting. Babel provided a basic support for bidi text as part of
the style for Hebrew, but it is somewhat unsatisfactory and internally
replaces some hardwired commands by other hardwired commands
(generic changes would be much better).

Handling of ``Unicode'' fonts is also problematic. There is
\textsf{fontspec}, but special macros are required (not only the NFSS
ones) and it doesn't provide ``orthogonal axis'' for features,
including those related to the language (mainly language and
script). A couple of tentative macros, which solve the two main cases,
are provided by \babel{} ($\ge$3.9g) with a partial solution (only
\xetex{} and \luatex, for obvious reasons), but use them at your own
risk, as they might be removed in the future. For this very reason,
they are described here:
\begin{itemize}
\item |\babelFSstore|\marg{babel-language} sets the current three
  basic families (rm, sf, tt) as the default for the language
  given. In most cases, this macro will be enough.
\item |\babelFSdefault|\marg{babel-language}\marg{fontspec-features}
  patches |\fontspec| so that the given features are always passed as
  the optional argument or added to it (not an ideal solution). Use it
  only if you select some fonts in the document with |\fontspec|.
\end{itemize}
So, for example:
\begin{verbatim}
\setmainfont[Language=Turkish]{Minion Pro}
\setsansfont[Language=Turkish]{Myriad Pro}
\babelFSstore{turkish}
\setmainfont{Minion Pro}
\setsansfont{Myriad Pro}
\babelFSfeatures{turkish}{Language=Turkish}
\end{verbatim}
Note you can set any feature required for the language -- not only
|Language|, but also |Script| or a local |.fea|. This makes those macros
a bit more verbose, but also more powerful.

\section{Loading languages with \file{language.dat}}

\TeX{} and most engines based on it (pdf\TeX, \xetex, $\epsilon$-\TeX,
the main exception being \luatex) require hyphenation patterns to be
preloaded when a format is created (eg, \LaTeX, Xe\LaTeX,
pdf\LaTeX). \babel{} provides a tool which has become standand in many
distributions and based on a ``configuration file'' named
\file{language.dat}. The exact way this file is used depends on the
distribution, so please, read the documentation for the latter (note
also some distributions generate the file with some tool).

\New{3.9q} With \luatex, however, patterns are loaded on the fly when
requested by the language (except the ``0th'' language, typically
\textsf{english}, which is preloaded always).\footnote{This feature
was added to 3.9o, but it was buggy. Both 3.9o and 3.9p are
deprecated.} Until 3.9n, this task was delegated to the package
\textsf{luatex-hyphen}, by Khaled Hosny, \'Elie Roux, and Manuel
P\'egouri\'e-Gonnard, and required an extra file named
|language.dat.lua|, but now a new mechanism has been devised based
solely on |language.dat|. \textbf{You must rebuild the formats} if
upgrading from a previous version.  You may want to have a local
|language.dat| for a particular project (for example, a book on
Chemistry).\footnote{The loader for lua(e)tex is slightly different as
it's not based on \babel{} but on \texttt{etex.src}. Until 3.9p it
just didn't work, but thanks to the new code it works by reloading the
data in the \babel{} way, i.e., with \texttt{language.dat}.}

Unfortunately, the new model is intrinsically incompatible with the
previous one, which means you can experience some problems with
\textsf{polyglossia}. If using the latter, you must load the patterns
with \babel{} as shown in the following example:
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage[base,french,dutch,spanish,english]{babel}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainlanguage{french}
\setotherlanguages{dutch,spanish,english}
\end{verbatim}
Be aware this is, very likely, a temporary solution.

\subsection{Format}

In that file the person who maintains a \TeX\ environment has to record
for which languages he has hyphenation patterns \emph{and} in which
files these are stored\footnote{This is because different operating
systems sometimes use \emph{very} different file-naming
conventions.}. When hyphenation exceptions are stored in a separate
file this can be indicated by naming that file \emph{after} the file
with the hyphenation patterns.

The file can contain empty lines and comments, as well as lines which
start with an equals (\texttt{=}) sign. Such a line will instruct
\LaTeX\ that the hyphenation patterns just processed have to be known
under an alternative name. Here is an example:
\begin{verbatim}
% File    : language.dat
% Purpose : tell iniTeX what files with patterns to load.
english    english.hyphenations
=british

dutch      hyphen.dutch exceptions.dutch % Nederlands
german hyphen.ger
\end{verbatim}

You may also set the font encoding the patterns are intended for by
following the language name by a colon and the encoding
code.\footnote{This in not a new feature, but in former versions it
didn't work correctly.} For example:
\begin{verbatim}
german:T1 hyphenT1.ger
german hyphen.ger
\end{verbatim}
With the previous settings, if the enconding when the language is
selected is |T1| then the patterns in \file{hyphenT1.ger} are
used, but otherwise use those in \file{hyphen.ger} (note the encoding
could be set in |\extras|\m{lang}).

A typical error when using \babel{} is the following:
\begin{verbatim}
No hyphenation patterns were preloaded for
the language `<lang>' into the format.
Please, configure your TeX system to add them and
rebuild the format. Now I will use the patterns
preloaded for english instead}}
\end{verbatim}
It simply means you must reconfigure \file{language.dat}, either by 
hand or with the tools provided by your distribution.

\section{The interface between the core of \babel{} and the language
definition files}

The \textit{language definition files} (ldf) must conform to a
number of conventions, because these files have to fill in the gaps
left by the common code in \file{babel.def}, i.\,e., the
definitions of the macros that produce texts.  Also the
language-switching possibility which has been built into the
\babel{} system has its implications.

The following assumptions are made:
\begin{itemize}
\item Some of the language-specific definitions might be used by plain
  \TeX\ users, so the files have to be coded so that they can be read
  by both \LaTeX\ and plain \TeX. The current format can be checked by
  looking at the value of the macro |\fmtname|.
\item The common part of the \babel{} system redefines a number of
  macros and environments (defined previously in the document style)
  to put in the names of macros that replace the previously hard-wired
  texts.  These macros have to be defined in the language definition
  files.
\item The language definition files must define five macros, used to
  activate and deactivate the language-specific definitions.  These
  macros are |\|\langvar|hyphenmins|, |\captions|\langvar,
  |\date|\langvar, |\extras|\langvar\ and |\noextras|\langvar (the
  last two may be left empty); where \langvar\ is either the name of
  the language definition file or the name of the \LaTeX\ option that
  is to be used. These macros and their functions are discussed
  below. You must define all or none for a language (or a dialect);
  defining, say, |\date|\langvar\ but not |\captions|\langvar\ does
  not raise an error but can lead to unexpected results.
\item When a language definition file is loaded, it can define
  |\l@|\langvar\ to be a dialect of |\language0| when |\l@|\langvar\
  is undefined.
\item Language names must be all lowercase. If an unknow language is
  selected, \babel{} will attempt setting it after lowercasing its
  name.
\item The semantics of modifiers is not defined (on purpose). In
  most cases, they will just be simple separated options (eg.,
  \texttt{spanish}), but a language might require, say, a set of
  options organized as a tree with suboptions (in such a case, the
  recommended separator is \verb|/|).
\end{itemize}

Some recommendations:
\begin{itemize}
\item The preferred shorthand is |"|, which is not used in \LaTeX{}
  (quotes are entered as |``| and |''|). Other good choices are
  characters which are not used in a certain context (eg, |=| in an
  ancient language). Note however |=|, |<|, |>|, |:| and the like
  can be dangerous, because they may be used as part of the syntax
  of some elements (numeric expressions, key/value pairs, etc.).
\item Captions should not contain shorthands or encoding dependent
  commands (the latter is not always possible, but should be clearly
  documented). They should be defined using the LICR. You may
  also use the new tools for encoded strings, described below.
\item Avoid adding things to |\noextras|\m{lang} except for umlauthigh
  and friends, |\bbl@deactivate|, |\bbl@(non)frenchspacing|, and
  language specific macros. Use always, if possible, |\bbl@save| and
  |\bbl@savevariable| (except if you still want to have access to the
  previous value). Do not reset a macro or a setting to a hardcoded
  value. Never. Instead save its value in |\extras|\m{lang}.
\item Do not switch scripts. If you want to make sure a set of glyphs
  is used, switch either the font encoding (low level) or the language
  (high level, which in turn may switch the font encoding). Usage of things
  like |\latintext| is deprecated.\footnote{But not removed, for backward
  compatibility.}
\item Please, for ``private'' internal macros do not use the |\bbl@|
  prefix. It is used by \babel{} and it can lead to incompatibilities.
\end{itemize}

There are no special requirements for documenting your language
files. Now they are not included in the base \babel{} manual, so
provide a standalone document suited for your needs, as well as other
files you think can be useful. A PDF and a ``readme'' are strongly
recommended.

\subsection{Basic macros}

In the core of the \babel{} system, several macros are defined for use
in language definition files. Their purpose is to make a new language
known. The first two are related to hyphenation patterns.

\DescribeMacro{\addlanguage}
The macro |\addlanguage| is a non-outer version of the macro
|\newlanguage|, defined in \file{plain.tex} version~3.x. For older
versions of \file{plain.tex} and \file{lplain.tex} a substitute
definition is used. Here ``language'' is used in the \TeX{} sense of
set of hyphenation patterns.

\DescribeMacro{\adddialect}
The macro |\adddialect| can be used when two languages can (or
must) use the same hyphenation patterns. This can also be useful
for languages for which no patterns are preloaded in the
format. In such cases the default behaviour of the \babel{}
system is to define this language as a `dialect' of the language
for which the patterns were loaded as |\language0|.  Here
``language'' is used in the \TeX{} sense of set of hyphenation
patterns.

\DescribeMacro{\<lang>hyphenmins}
The macro |\|\langvar|hyphenmins| is used to store the values of
the |\lefthyphenmin| and |\righthyphenmin|. Redefine this macro
to set your own values, with two numbers corresponding to these
two parameters. For example:
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand\spanishhyphenmins{34}
\end{verbatim}
(Assigning |\lefthyphenmin| and |\righthyphenmin| directly in
|\extras<lang>| has no effect.)

\DescribeMacro{\providehyphenmins}
The macro |\providehyphenmins| should be used in the language
definition files to set |\lefthyphenmin| and
|\righthyphenmin|. This macro will check whether these parameters
were provided by the hyphenation file before it takes any action.
If these values have been already set, this command is ignored
(currenty, default pattern files do \textit{not} set them).

\DescribeMacro{\captions\langvar}
The macro |\captions|\langvar\ defines the macros that
hold the texts to replace the original hard-wired texts.

\DescribeMacro{\date\langvar}
The macro |\date|\langvar\ defines |\today|.

\DescribeMacro{\extras\langvar}
The macro |\extras|\langvar\ contains all the extra definitions needed
for a specific language. This macro, like the following, is a hook --
you can add things to it, but it must not be used directly.

\DescribeMacro{\noextras\langvar}
Because we want to let the user switch
between languages, but we do not know what state \TeX\ might be in
after the execution of |\extras|\langvar, a macro that brings
\TeX\ into a predefined state is needed. It will be no surprise
that the name of this macro is |\noextras|\langvar.

\DescribeMacro{\bbl@declare@ttribute}
This is a command to be used in the language definition files for
declaring a language attribute. It takes three arguments: the
name of the language, the attribute to be defined, and the code
to be executed when the attribute is to be used.

\DescribeMacro{\main@language}
To postpone the activation of the definitions needed for a
language until the beginning of a document, all language
definition files should use |\main@language| instead of
|\selectlanguage|. This will just store the name of the language,
and the proper language will be activated at the start of the
document.

\DescribeMacro{\ProvidesLanguage}
The macro |\ProvidesLanguage| should be used to identify the
language definition files. Its syntax is similar to the syntax
of the \LaTeX\ command |\ProvidesPackage|.

\DescribeMacro{\LdfInit}
The macro |\LdfInit| performs a couple of standard checks that
must be made at the beginning of a language definition file,
such as checking the category code of the @-sign, preventing
the \file{.ldf} file from being processed twice, etc.

\DescribeMacro{\ldf@quit}
The macro |\ldf@quit| does work needed
if a \file{.ldf} file was processed
earlier. This includes resetting the category code
of the @-sign, preparing the language to be activated at
|\begin{document}| time, and ending the input stream.

\DescribeMacro{\ldf@finish}
The macro |\ldf@finish| does work needed
at the end of each \file{.ldf} file. This
includes resetting the category code of the @-sign,
loading a local configuration file, and preparing the language
to be activated at |\begin{document}| time.

\DescribeMacro{\loadlocalcfg}
After processing a language definition file,
\LaTeX\ can be instructed to load a local configuration
file. This file can, for instance, be used to add strings to
|\captions|\langvar\ to support local document
classes. The user will be informed that this
configuration file has been loaded. This macro is called by
|\ldf@finish|.

\DescribeMacro{\substitutefontfamily}
(Deprecated.) This command takes three arguments, a font encoding and
two font family names. It creates a font description file for the
first font in the given encoding. This \file{.fd} file will instruct
\LaTeX\ to use a font from the second family when a font from the
first family in the given encoding seems to be needed.

\subsection{Skeleton}

Here is the basic structure of an |ldf| file, with a language, a
dialect and an attribute. Strings are best defined using the method
explained in in sec. \ref{s:strings} (\babel{} 3.9 and later). 

\begin{verbatim}
\ProvidesLanguage{<language>}
     [2016/04/23 v0.0 <Language> support from the babel system]
\LdfInit{<language>}{captions<language>}

\ifx\undefined\l@<language>
  \@nopatterns{<Language>}
  \adddialect\l@<language>0
\fi

\adddialect\l@<dialect>\l@<language>

\bbl@declare@ttribute{<language>}{<attrib>}{%
  \expandafter\addto\expandafter\extras<language>
  \expandafter{\extras<attrib><language>}%
  \let\captions<language>\captions<attrib><language>}

\providehyphenmins{<language>}{\tw@\thr@@}

\StartBabelCommands*{<language>}{captions}
\SetString\chaptername{<chapter name>}
% More strings

\StartBabelCommands*{<language>}{date}
\SetString\monthiname{<name of first month>}
% More strings

\StartBabelCommands*{<dialect>}{captions}
\SetString\chaptername{<chapter name>}
% More strings

\StartBabelCommands*{<dialect>}{date}
\SetString\monthiname{<name of first month>}
% More strings

\EndBabelCommands

\addto\extras<language>{}
\addto\noextras<language>{}
\let\extras<dialect>\extras<language>
\let\noextras<dialect>\noextras<language>

\ldf@finish{<language>}
\end{verbatim}

\subsection{Support for active characters}

In quite a number of language definition files, active characters are
introduced. To facilitate this, some support macros are provided.

\DescribeMacro{\initiate@active@char}
The internal macro |\initiate@active@char| is used in language
definition files to instruct \LaTeX\ to give a character the category
code `active'. When a character has been made active it will remain
that way until the end of the document. Its definition may vary.

\DescribeMacro{\bbl@activate}
\DescribeMacro{\bbl@deactivate}
The command |\bbl@activate| is used to change the way an active
character expands. |\bbl@activate| `switches on' the active behaviour
of the character. |\bbl@deactivate| lets the active character expand
to its former (mostly) non-active self.

\DescribeMacro{\declare@shorthand}
The macro |\declare@shorthand| is used to define the various
shorthands. It takes three arguments: the name for the collection of
shorthands this definition belongs to; the character (sequence) that
makes up the shorthand, i.e.\ |~| or |"a|; and the code to be executed
when the shorthand is encountered. (It does \textit{not} raise an
error if the shorthand character has not been ``initiated''.)

\DescribeMacro{\bbl@add@special}
\DescribeMacro{\bbl@remove@special}
The \TeX book states: ``Plain \TeX\ includes a macro called
|\dospecials| that is essentially a set macro, representing the set of
all characters that have a special category code.'' \cite[p.~380]{DEK}
It is used to set text `verbatim'.  To make this work if more
characters get a special category code, you have to add this character
to the macro |\dospecial|.  \LaTeX\ adds another macro called
|\@sanitize| representing the same character set, but without the
curly braces.  The macros |\bbl@add@special|\meta{char} and
|\bbl@remove@special|\meta{char} add and remove the character
\meta{char} to these two sets.

\subsection{Support for saving macro definitions}

Language definition files may want to \emph{re}define macros that
already exist. Therefore a mechanism for saving (and restoring) the
original definition of those macros is provided. We provide two macros
for this\footnote{This mechanism was introduced by Bernd Raichle.}.

\DescribeMacro{\babel@save}
To save the current meaning of any control sequence, the macro
|\babel@save| is provided. It takes one argument, \meta{csname}, the
control sequence for which the meaning has to be saved.

\DescribeMacro{\babel@savevariable}
A second macro is provided to save the current value of a variable.
In this context, anything that is allowed after the |\the| primitive
is considered to be a variable. The macro takes one argument, the
\meta{variable}.

The effect of the preceding macros is to append a piece of code to
the current definition of |\originalTeX|. When |\originalTeX| is
expanded, this code restores the previous definition of the control
sequence or the previous value of the variable.

\subsection{Support for extending macros}

\DescribeMacro{\addto}
The macro |\addto{|\meta{control sequence}|}{|\meta{\TeX\ code}|}| can
be used to extend the definition of a macro. The macro need not be
defined (ie, it can be undefined or |\relax|). This macro can, for
instance, be used in adding instructions to a macro like
|\extrasenglish|.

Be careful when using this macro, because depending on the case the
assignment could be either global (usually) or local (sometimes). That
does not seem very consistent, but this behaviour is preserved for
backward compatibility. If you are using \pkg{etoolbox}, by Philipp
Lehman, consider using the tools provided by this package instead of
|\addto|.

\subsection{Macros common to a number of languages}

\DescribeMacro{\bbl@allowhyphens}
In several languages compound words are used. This means that when
\TeX\ has to hyphenate such a compound word, it only does so at the
`\texttt{-}' that is used in such words. To allow hyphenation in the
rest of such a compound word, the macro |\bbl@allowhyphens| can be
used.

\DescribeMacro{\allowhyphens}
Same as |\bbl@allowhyphens|, but does nothing if the encoding is
|T1|. It is intended mainly for characters provided as real glyphs by
this encoding but constructed with |\accent| in |OT1|.

Note the previous command (|\bbl@allowhyphens|) has different
applications (hyphens and discretionaries) than this one (composite
chars). Note also prior to version 3.7, |\allowhyphens| had the
behaviour of |\bbl@allowhyphens|.

\DescribeMacro{\set@low@box}
For some languages, quotes need to be lowered to the baseline. For
this purpose the macro |\set@low@box| is available. It takes one
argument and puts that argument in an |\hbox|, at the baseline. The
result is available in |\box0| for further processing.

\DescribeMacro{\save@sf@q}
Sometimes it is necessary to preserve the |\spacefactor|.  For this
purpose the macro |\save@sf@q| is available. It takes one argument,
saves the current spacefactor, executes the argument, and restores the
spacefactor.

\DescribeMacro{\bbl@frenchspacing}
\DescribeMacro{\bbl@nonfrenchspacing}
The commands |\bbl@frenchspacing| and |\bbl@nonfrenchspacing| can be
used to properly switch French spacing on and off.

\subsection{Encoding-dependent strings}
\label{s:strings}

\New{3.9a} Babel 3.9 provides a way of defining strings in several
encodings, intended mainly for \luatex{} and \xetex. This is the only new
feature requiring changes in language files if you want to make use of
it.

Furthermore, it must be activated explicitly, with the package option
|strings|. If there is no |strings|, these blocks are ignored, except
|\SetCase|s (and except if forced as described below). In other words,
the old way of defining/switching strings still works and it's used by
default.

It consist is a series of blocks started with
|\StartBabelCommands|. The last block is closed with
|\EndBabelCommands|. Each block is a single group (ie, local
declarations apply until the next |\StartBabelCommands| or
|\EndBabelCommands|). An |ldf| may contain several series of this
kind.

Thanks to this new feature, string values and string language
switching are not mixed any more. No need of |\addto|. If the language
is |french|, just redefine |\frenchchaptername|.

\Describe\StartBabelCommands
  {\marg{language-list}\marg{category}\oarg{selector}}

The \m{language-list} specifies which languages the block is
intended for. A block is taken into account only if the
|\CurrentOption| is listed here. Alternatively, you can define
|\BabelLanguages| to a comma-separated list of languages to be
defined (if undefined, |\StartBabelCommands| sets it to
|\CurrentOption|). You may write |\CurrentOption| as the language,
but this is discouraged -- a explicit name (or names) is much better
and clearer.

A ``selector'' is a name to be used as value in package option
|strings|, optionally followed by extra info about the encodings to be
used. The name |unicode| must be used for \xetex{} and \luatex{} (the
key |strings| has also other two special values: |generic| and
|encoded|).

If a string is set several times (because several blocks are read),
the first one take precedence (ie, it works much like
|\providecommand|).

Encoding info is |charset=| followed by a charset, which if given sets
how the strings should be traslated to the internal representation
used by the engine, typically |utf8|, which is the only value
supported currently (default is no traslations). Note |charset| is
applied by \luatex{} and \xetex{} when reading the file, not when the
macro or string is used in the document.

A list of font encodings which the strings are expected to work with
can be given after |fontenc=| (separated with spaces, if two or more) --
recommended, but not mandatory, although blocks without this key are
not taken into account if you have requested |strings=encoded|.

Blocks without a selector are read always if the key |strings| has
been used.  They provide fallback values, and therefore must be the
last blocks; they should be provided always if possible and all
strings should be defined somehow inside it; they can be the only
blocks (mainly LGC scripts using the LICR). Blocks without a selector
can be activated explicitly with |strings=generic| (no block is taken
into account except those). With |strings=encoded|, strings in those
blocks are set as default (internally, |?|). With |strings=encoded|
strings are protected, but they are correctly expanded in
|\MakeUppercase| and the like. If there is no key |strings|, string
definitions are ignored, but |\SetCase|s are still honoured (in a
|encoded| way).

The \m{category} is either |captions|, |date| or |extras|. You must
stick to these three categories, even if no error is raised when using
other name.\footnote{In future releases further categories may be
added.\nb{like `monetary', `time', `address', `name', `case' or
`numeric'}} It may be empty, too, but in such a case using
|\SetString| is an error (but not |\SetCase|).

\begin{verbatim}
\StartBabelCommands{language}{captions}
  [unicode, fontenc=EU1 EU2, charset=utf8]
\SetString{\chaptername}{utf8-string}

\StartBabelCommands{language}{captions}
\SetString{\chaptername}{ascii-maybe-LICR-string}

\EndBabelCommands
\end{verbatim}

A real example is:
\begin{verbatim}[escapechar=\&]
\StartBabelCommands{austrian}{date}
  [unicode, fontenc=EU1 EU2, charset=utf8]
  \SetString\monthiname{J&\"a&nner}

\StartBabelCommands{german,austrian}{date}
  [unicode, fontenc=EU1 EU2, charset=utf8]
  \SetString\monthiiiname{M&\"a&rz}

\StartBabelCommands{austrian}{date}
  \SetString\monthiname{J\"{a}nner}

\StartBabelCommands{german}{date}
  \SetString\monthiname{Januar}

\StartBabelCommands{german,austrian}{date}
  \SetString\monthiiname{Februar}
  \SetString\monthiiiname{M\"{a}rz}
  \SetString\monthivname{April}
  \SetString\monthvname{Mai}
  \SetString\monthviname{Juni}
  \SetString\monthviiname{Juli}
  \SetString\monthviiiname{August}
  \SetString\monthixname{September}
  \SetString\monthxname{Oktober}
  \SetString\monthxiname{November}
  \SetString\monthxiiname{Dezenber}
  \SetString\today{\number\day.~%
    \csname month\romannumeral\month name\endcsname\space
    \number\year}

\StartBabelCommands{german,austrian}{captions}
  \SetString\prefacename{Vorwort}
  [etc.]

\EndBabelCommands
\end{verbatim}

When used in |ldf| files, previous values of |\|\m{category}\m{language}
are overriden, which means the old way to define strings still works
and used by default (to be precise, is first set to undefined and then
strings are added). However, when used in the preamble or in a
package, new settings are added to the previous ones, if the language
exists (in the \babel{} sense, ie, if |\date|\m{language} exists).

\Describe\StartBabelCommands{%
  \colorbox{thegrey}{\ttfamily\hskip-.2em*\hskip-.2em}%
  \marg{language-list}\marg{category}\oarg{selector}}
The starred version just forces |strings| to take a value -- if not set
as package option, then the default for the engine is used. This is
not done by default to prevent backward incompatibilities, but if you
are creating a new language this version is better. It's up to
the maintainers of the current languages to decide if using it is
appropiate.\footnote{This replaces in 3.9g a short-lived
\texttt{\string\UseStrings} which has been removed because it did
not work.}

\Describe\EndBabelCommands{}
Marks the end of the series of blocks.

\Describe\AfterBabelCommands{\marg{code}}
The code is delayed and executed at the global scope just after |\EndBabelCommands|.

\Describe\SetString{\marg{macro-name}\marg{string}}
Adds \meta{macro-name} to the current category, and defines globally
\meta{lang-macro-name} to \meta{code} (after applying the
transformation corresponding to the current charset or defined with
the hook |stringprocess|).

Use this command to define strings, without including any ``logic'' if
possible, which should be a separated macro. See the example above for
the date.

\Describe\SetStringLoop{\marg{macro-name}\marg{string-list}}
A convenient way to define several ordered names at once. For example,
to define |\abmoniname|, |\abmoniiname|, etc. (and similarly with
|abday|):
\begin{verbatim}
\SetStringLoop{abmon#1name}{en,fb,mr,ab,my,jn,jl,ag,sp,oc,nv,dc}
\SetStringLoop{abday#1name}{lu,ma,mi,ju,vi,sa,do}
\end{verbatim}
|#1| is replaced by the roman numeral.

\Describe\SetCase{\oarg{map-list}\marg{toupper-code}\marg{tolower-code}}
Sets globally code to be executed at |\MakeUppercase| and
|\MakeLowercase|. The code would be typically things like |\let\BB\bb|
and |\uccode| or |\lccode| (although for the reasons explained above,
changes in lc/uc codes may not work). A \meta{map-list} is a series of
macros using the internal format of |\@uclclist| (eg,
|\bb\BB\cc\CC|). The mandatory arguments take precedence over the
optional one. This command, unlike |\SetString|, is executed always
(even without |strings|), and it is intented for minor readjustments
only.

For example, as |T1| is the default case mapping in \LaTeX, we could
set for Turkish:
\begin{verbatim}[escapechar=\&]
\StartBabelCommands{turkish}{}[ot1enc, fontenc=OT1]
\SetCase
  {\uccode"10=`I\relax}
  {\lccode`I="10\relax}

\StartBabelCommands{turkish}{}[unicode, fontenc=EU1 EU2, charset=utf8]
\SetCase
  {\uccode`i=`&\rmfamily\.{\ttfamily I}&\relax
   \uccode`&\i&=`I\relax}
  {\lccode`&\rmfamily\.{\ttfamily I}&=`i\relax
   \lccode`I=`&\i&\relax}

\StartBabelCommands{turkish}{}
\SetCase
  {\uccode`i="9D\relax
   \uccode"19=`I\relax}
  {\lccode"9D=`i\relax
   \lccode`I="19\relax}

\EndBabelCommands
\end{verbatim}
(Note the mapping for |OT1| is not complete.)

\Describe\SetHyphenMap{\marg{to-lower-macros}}
\New{3.9g} Case mapping serves in \TeX{} for two unrelated purposes: case
transforms (upper/lower) and hyphenation. |\SetCase| handles the
former, while hyphenation is handled by |\SetHyphenMap| and controlled
with the package option |hyphenmap|. So, even if internally they are based
on the same \TeX{} primitive (|\lccode|), \babel{} sets them separately.

There are three helper macros to
be used inside |\SetHyphenMap|:
\begin{itemize}
\item |\BabelLower|\marg{uccode}\marg{lccode} is
  similar to |\lccode| but it's ignored if the char has been set and
  saves the original lccode to restore it when switching the language
  (except with |hyphenmap=first|).
\item |\BabelLowerMM|\marg{uccode-from}\marg{uccode-to}%
  \marg{step}\marg{lccode-from} loops though the given uppercase
  codes, using the step, and assigns them the lccode, which is also
  increased (|MM| stands for \textit{many-to-many}).
\item |\BabelLowerMO|\marg{uccode-from}\marg{uccode-to}%
  \marg{step}\marg{lccode} loops though the given uppercase
  codes, using the step, and assigns them the lccode, which is fixed
  (|MO| stands for \textit{many-to-one}).
\end{itemize}
An example is (which is redundant, because these assignments are done
by both \luatex{} and \xetex{}):
\begin{verbatim}
\SetHyphenMap{\BabelLowerMM{"100}{"11F}{2}{"101}}
\end{verbatim}

This macro is not intended to fix wrong mappings done by Unicode
(which are the default in both \xetex{} and \luatex{}) -- if an
assignment is wrong, fix it directly.


\section{Compatibility and changes}

\subsection{Compatibility with \file{german.sty}}\label{l-h}

The file \file{german.sty} has been one of the sources of inspiration
for the \babel{} system. Because of this I wanted to include
\file{german.sty} in the \babel{} system.  To be able to do that I had
to allow for one incompatibility: in the definition of the macro
|\selectlanguage| in \file{german.sty} the argument is used as the
{$\langle \it number \rangle$} for an |\ifcase|. So in this case a
call to |\selectlanguage| might look like |\selectlanguage{\german}|.

In the definition of the macro |\selectlanguage| in \file{babel.def}
the argument is used as a part of other macronames, so a call to
|\selectlanguage| now looks like |\selectlanguage{german}|.  Notice
the absence of the escape character.  As of version~3.1a of \babel{}
both syntaxes are allowed.

All other features of the original \file{german.sty} have been copied
into a new file, called \file{germanb.sty}\footnote{The `b' is added
to the name to distinguish the file from Partls' file.}.

Although the \babel{} system was developed to be used with \LaTeX,
some of the features implemented in the language definition files
might be needed by plain \TeX\ users. Care has been taken that all
files in the system can be processed by plain \TeX.

\subsection{Compatibility with \file{ngerman.sty}}

When used with the options \Lopt{ngerman} or \Lopt{naustrian},
\babel{} will provide all features of the package \pkg{ngerman}.
There is however one exception: The commands for special hyphenation
of double consonants (|"ff| etc.) and ck (|"ck|), which are no longer
required with the new German orthography, are undefined. With the
\pkg{ngerman} package, however, these commands will generate
appropriate warning messages only.

\subsection{Compatibility with the \pkg{french} package}

It has been reported to me that the package \pkg{french} by Bernard
Gaulle (\texttt{gaulle@idris.fr}) works together with \babel. On the
other hand, it seems \emph{not} to work well together with a lot of
other packages. Therefore I have decided to no longer load
\file{french.ldf} by default. Instead, when you want to use the
package by Bernard Gaulle, you will have to request it specifically,
by passing either \Lopt{frenchle} or \Lopt{frenchpro} as an option to
\babel.

\subsection{Changes in \babel\ version 3.9}

Most of changes in version 3.9 are related to bugs, either to fix them
(there were lots), or to provide some alternatives. Even new features
like |\babelhyphen| are intended to solve a certain problem (in this
case, the lacking of a uniform syntax and behaviour for shorthands
across languages). These changes are described in this manual in the
correspondin place.

\subsection{Changes in \babel\ version 3.7}

In \babel\ version 3.7 a number of bugs that were found in
version~3.6 are fixed. Also a number of changes and additions
have occurred:
\begin{itemize}
\item Shorthands are expandable again. The disadvantage is that
  one has to type |'{}a| when the acute accent is used as a
  shorthand character. The advantage is that a number of other
  problems (such as the breaking of ligatures, etc.) have
  vanished.
\item Two new commands, |\shorthandon| and |\shorthandoff| have
  been introduced to enable to temporarily switch off one or more
  shorthands.
\item Support for typesetting Greek has been enhanced. Code from
  the \pkg{kdgreek} package (suggested by the author) was added
  and |\greeknumeral| has been added.
\item Support for typesetting Basque is now available thanks to
  Juan Aguirregabiria.
\item Support for typesetting Serbian with Latin script is now
  available thanks to Dejan Muhamedagi\'{c} and Jankovic
  Slobodan.
\item Support for typesetting Hebrew (and potential support for
  typesetting other right-to-left written languages) is now
  available thanks to Rama Porrat and Boris Lavva.
\item Support for typesetting Bulgarian is now available thanks to
  Georgi Boshnakov.
\item Support for typesetting Latin is now available, thanks to
  Claudio Beccari and Krzysztof Konrad \.Zelechowski.
\item Support for typesetting North Sami is now available, thanks
  to Regnor Jernsletten.
\item The options \Lopt{canadian}, \Lopt{canadien} and
  \Lopt{acadien} have been added for Canadian English and French
  use.
\item A language attribute has been added to the |\mark...|
  commands in order to make sure that a Greek header line comes
  out right on the last page before a language switch.
\item Hyphenation pattern files are now read \emph{inside a
  group}; therefore any changes a pattern file needs to make to
  lowercase codes, uppercase codes, and category codes are kept
  local to that group. If they are needed for the language, these
  changes will need to be repeated and stored in |\extras...|
\item The concept of language attributes is introduced. It is
  intended to give the user some control over the
  features a language-definition file provides. Its
  first use is for the Greek language, where the user can choose
  the  $\pi o\lambda\upsilon\tau o\nu\kappa\acute{o}$
  (``Polutoniko'' or multi-accented) Greek way of typesetting
  texts. These attributes will possibly find wider use in future
  releases.
\item The environment \Lenv{hyphenrules} is introduced.
\item The syntax of the file \file{language.dat} has been
  extended to allow (optionally) specifying the font
  encoding to be used while processing the patterns file.
\item The command |\providehyphenmins| should now be used in
  language definition files in order to be able to keep any
  settings provided by the pattern file.
\end{itemize}

\subsection{Changes in \babel\ version 3.6}

In \babel\ version 3.6 a number of bugs that were found in
version~3.5 are fixed. Also a number of changes and additions
have occurred:
\begin{itemize}
\item A new environment \Lenv{otherlanguage*} is introduced. it
  only switches the `specials', but leaves the `captions'
  untouched.
\item The shorthands are no longer fully expandable. Some
  problems could only be solved by peeking at the token following
  an active character. The advantage is that |'{}a| works as
  expected for languages that have the |'| active.
\item Support for typesetting french texts is much enhanced; the
  file \file{francais.ldf} is now replaced by \file{frenchb.ldf}
  which is maintained by Daniel Flipo.
\item Support for typesetting the russian language is again
  available. The language definition file was originally
  developed by Olga Lapko from CyrTUG. The fonts needed to
  typeset the russian language are now part of the \babel\
  distribution. The support is not yet up to the level which is
  needed according to Olga, but this is a start.
\item Support for typesetting greek texts is now also
  available. What is offered in this release is a first attempt;
  it will be enhanced later on by Yannis Haralambous.
\item in \babel\ 3.6j some hooks have been added for the
  development of support for Hebrew typesetting.
\item Support for typesetting texts in Afrikaans (a variant of
  Dutch, spoken in South Africa) has been added to
  \file{dutch.ldf}.
\item Support for typesetting Welsh texts is now available.
\item A new command |\aliasshorthand| is introduced. It seems
  that in Poland various conventions are used to type the
  necessary Polish letters. It is now possible to use the
  character~|/| as a shorthand character instead of the
  character~|"|, by issuing the command |\aliasshorthand{"}{/}|.
\item The shorthand mechanism now deals correctly with characters
  that are already active.
\item Shorthand characters are made active at |\begin{document}|,
  not earlier. This is to prevent problems with other packages.
\item A \emph{preambleonly} command |\substitutefontfamily| has
  been added to create \file{.fd} files on the fly when the font
  families of the Latin text differ from the families used for
  the Cyrillic or Greek parts of the text.
\item Three new commands |\LdfInit|, |\ldf@quit| and
  |\ldf@finish| are introduced that perform a number of standard
  tasks.
\item In babel 3.6k the language Ukrainian has been added and the
  support for Russian typesetting has been adapted to the package
  'cyrillic' to be released with the December 1998 release of
  \LaTeXe.
\end{itemize}

\subsection{Changes in \babel\ version 3.5}

In \babel\ version 3.5 a lot of changes have been made when compared
with the previous release. Here is a list of the most important ones:
\begin{itemize}
\item the selection of the language is delayed until
  |\begin{document}|, which means you must add appropriate
    |\selectlanguage| commands if you include |\hyphenation| lists in
    the preamble of your document.
\item \babel\ now has a \Lenv{language} environment and a new
  command |\foreignlanguage|;
\item the way active characters are dealt with is completely
  changed. They are called `shorthands'; one can have three
  levels of shorthands: on the user level, the language level,
  and on `system level'. A consequence of the new way of handling
  active characters is that they are now written to auxiliary
  files `verbatim';
\item A language change now also writes information in the
  \file{.aux} file, as the change might also affect typesetting
  the table of contents. The consequence is that an \file{.aux} file
  generated by a \LaTeX format with babel preloaded gives errors
  when read with a \LaTeX format without babel; but I think this
  probably doesn't occur;
\item \babel\ is now compatible with the \pkg{inputenc} and
  \pkg{fontenc} packages;
\item the language definition files now have a new extension,
  \file{ldf};
\item the syntax of the file \file{language.dat} is extended to
  be compatible with the \pkg{french} package by Bernard Gaulle;
\item each language definition file looks for a configuration
  file which has the same name, but the extension \file{.cfg}. It
can contain any valid \LaTeX\ code.
\end{itemize}

\DocInput{babel.dtx}
\DocInput{bbunicode.dtx}

\section{Conclusion}

A system of document options has been presented that enable the user
of \LaTeX\ to adapt the standard document classes of \LaTeX\ to the
language he or she prefers to use. These options offer the possibility
of switching between languages in one document. The basic interface
consists of using one option, which is the same for \emph{all}
standard document classes.

In some cases the language definition files provide macros that can be
useful to plain \TeX\ users as well as to \LaTeX\ users.  The \babel{}
system has been implemented so that it can be used by both groups of
users.

\section{Acknowledgements}

I would like to thank all who volunteered as $\beta$-testers for their
time. I would like to mention Julio Sanchez who supplied the option
file for the Spanish language and Maurizio Codogno who supplied the
option file for the Italian language. Michel Goossens supplied
contributions for most of the other languages.  Nico Poppelier helped
polish the text of the documentation and supplied parts of the macros
for the Dutch language.  Paul Wackers and Werenfried Spit helped find
and repair bugs.

During the further development of the babel system I received much
help from Bernd Raichle, for which I am grateful.

% \section{Identification and loading of required files}
%
%    \textit{Code documentation is still under revision.}
%
%    The \babel{} package after unpacking it consists of the following files:
%    \begin{description}
%    \itemsep=-\parskip
%    \item[switch.def] defines macros to set and switch languages.
%    \item[babel.def] defines the rest of macros. It has tow parts: a
%    generic one and a second one only for LaTeX{}.
%    \item[babel.sty] is the \LaTeX{} package, which set options and
%    load language styles.
%  \item[plain.def] defines some \LaTeX{} macros required by
%    \file{babel.def} and provides a few tools for Plain.
%   \item[hyphen.cfg] is the file to be used when generating the
%    formats to load hyphenation patterns. By default it also loads
%    \file{switch.def}.
%    \end{description}
%
%    The \babel{} installer extends \textsf{docstrip} with a few
%    ``pseudo-guards'' to set ``variables'' used at installation time.
%    They are used with |<||@name@>| at the appropiated places in the
%    source code and shown below with
%    $\langle\langle$\textit{name}$\rangle\rangle$. That brings a
%    little bit of literate programming.

%  \subsection{Multiple languages}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\language}
%    Plain \TeX\ version~3.0 provides the primitive |\language| that
%    is used to store the current language. When used with a pre-3.0
%    version this function has to be implemented by allocating a
%    counter. The following block is used in \file{switch.def} and
%    \file{hyphen.cfg}; the latter may seem redundant, but remember
%    \babel{} doesn't requires loading \file{switch.def} in the format.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<<*Define core switching macros>>
\ifx\language\@undefined
  \csname newcount\endcsname\language
\fi
%<</Define core switching macros>>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\last@language}
%    Another counter is used to store the last language defined.  For
%    pre-3.0 formats an extra counter has to be allocated.
%
%  \begin{macro}{\addlanguage}
%
%    To add languages to \TeX's memory plain \TeX\ version~3.0
%    supplies |\newlanguage|, in a pre-3.0 environment a similar macro
%    has to be provided. For both cases a new macro is defined here,
%    because the original |\newlanguage| was defined to be |\outer|.
%
%    For a format based on plain version~2.x, the definition of
%    |\newlanguage| can not be copied because |\count 19| is used for
%    other purposes in these formats. Therefore |\addlanguage| is
%    defined using a definition based on the macros used to define
%    |\newlanguage| in plain \TeX\ version~3.0.
%
%    For formats based on plain version~3.0 the definition of
%    |\newlanguage| can be simply copied, removing |\outer|.
%    Plain \TeX\ version 3.0 uses |\count 19| for this purpose.

%
%    Now we make sure all required files are loaded.  When the command
%    |\AtBeginDocument| doesn't exist we assume that we are dealing
%    with a plain-based format or \LaTeX2.09. In that case the file
%    \file{plain.def} is needed (which also defines
%    |\AtBeginDocument|, and therefore it is not loaded twice). We
%    need the first part when the format is created, and |\orig@dump|

%
%    \section{The Package File (\LaTeX)}
%
%    In order to make use of the features of \LaTeXe, the \babel\
%    system contains a package file, \file{babel.sty}. This file is
%    loaded by the |\usepackage| command and defines all the language
%    options whose name is different from that of the |.ldf| file
%    (like variant spellings). It also takes care of a number of
%    compatibility issues with other packages an defines a few
%    aditional package options.
%
%
%    Apart from all the language options below we also have a few options
%    that influence the behaviour of language definition files.
%
%    Many of the following options don't do anything themselves, they
%    are just defined in order to make it possible for babel and
%    language definition files to check if one of them was specified
%    by the user.
%
%   \subsection{\texttt{base}}
%
%    The first option to be processed is |base|, which set the
%    hyphenation patterns then resets |ver@babel.sty| so that
%    \LaTeX forgets about the first loading. After |switch.def| has
%    been loaded (above) and |\AfterBabelLanguage| defined, exits.

%    to create the file \file{bblopts.cfg} in which one can add option
%    declarations. However, this mechanism is deprecated -- if you
%    want an alternative name for a language, just create a new |.ldf|
%    file loading the actual one. You can also set the name
%    of the file with the package option |config=<name>|, which will
%    load |<name>.cfg| instead.

%    Recognizing global options in packages not having a closed set of
%    them is not trivial, as for them to be processed they must be
%    defined explicitly. So, package options not yet taken into
%    account and stored in |bbl@language@opts| are assumed to be
%    languages (note this list also contains the language given with
%    |main|). If not declared above, the name of the option and the
%    file are the same.

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Now, we make sure an option is explicitly declared for any
%    language set as global option, by checking if an |ldf|
%    exists. The previous step was, in fact, somewhat redundant, but
%    that way we minimize accesing the file system just to see if the
%    option could be a language.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\bbl@foreach\@classoptionslist{%
  \bbl@ifunset{ds@#1}%
    {\IfFileExists{#1.ldf}%
      {\DeclareOption{#1}{\bbl@load@language{#1}}}%

%
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/12/22}{Default option does nothing}

%    \section{The kernel of Babel (common)}
%
%    The kernel of the \babel\ system is stored in either
%    \file{hyphen.cfg} or \file{switch.def} and \file{babel.def}.  The
%    file \file{babel.def} contains most of the code, while
%    \file{switch.def} defines the language switching commands; both
%    can be read at run time. The file \file{hyphen.cfg} is a file
%    that can be loaded into the format, which is necessary when you
%    want to be able to switch hyphenation patterns (by default, it
%    also inputs \file{switch.def}, for ``historical reasons'', but it
%    is not necessary). When \file{babel.def} is loaded it checks if
%    the current version of \file{switch.def} is in the format; if not
%    it is loaded. A further file, \file{babel.sty}, contains
%    \LaTeX-specific stuff.
%
%    Because plain \TeX\ users might want to use some of the features
%    of the \babel{} system too, care has to be taken that plain \TeX\
%    can process the files. For this reason the current format will
%    have to be checked in a number of places. Some of the code below
%    is common to plain \TeX\ and \LaTeX, some of it is for the
%    \LaTeX\ case only.
%
%    Plain formats based on etex (etex, xetex, luatex) don't load
%    |hyphen.cfg| but |etex.src|, which follows a different naming
%    convention, so we need to define the babel names. It presumes
%    |language.def| exists and it is the same file used when
%    formats were created.

%  \begin{macro}{\addto}
%    For each language four control sequences have to be defined that
%    control the language-specific definitions. To be able to add
%    something to these macro once they have been defined the macro
%    |\addto| is introduced. It takes two arguments, a \meta{control
%    sequence} and \TeX-code to be added to the \meta{control
%    sequence}.
%
%    If the \meta{control sequence} has not been defined before it is
%    defined now.  The control sequence could also expand to |\relax|,
%    in which case a circular definition results. The net result is a
%    stack overflow.  Otherwise the replacement text for the
%    \meta{control sequence} is expanded and stored in a token
%    register, together with the \TeX-code to be added.  Finally the
%    \meta{control sequence} is \emph{re}defined, using the contents
%    of the token register.

%    we don't want to redefine the \LaTeX\ macros completely in case
%    their definitions change (they have changed in the past).
%
%    Because we need to redefine a number of commands we define the

%  simplistic and does vety little to catch errors, but it is intended
%  for developpers, after all. |\bbl@usehooks| is the commands used by

%  \subsection{Setting up language files}
%
% \begin{macro}{\LdfInit}
%    The second version of |\LdfInit| macro takes two arguments. The first
%    argument is the name of the language that will be defined in the
%    language definition file; the second argument is either a control
%    sequence or a string from which a control sequence should be
%    constructed. The existence of the control sequence indicates that
%    the file has been processed before.
%
%    At the start of processing a language definition file we always
%    check the category code of the at-sign. We make sure that it is
%    a `letter' during the processing of the file. We also save its
%    name as the last called option, even if not loaded.
%
%    Another character that needs to have the correct category code
%    during processing of language definition files is the equals sign,
%    `=', because it is sometimes used in constructions with the
%    |\let| primitive. Therefore we store its current catcode and
%    restore it later on.
%
%    Now we check whether we should perhaps stop the processing of
%    this file. To do this we first need to check whether the second
%    argument that is passed to |\LdfInit| is a control sequence. We
%    do that by looking at the first token after passing |#2| through
%    |string|. When it is equal to |\@backslashchar| we are dealing
%    with a control sequence which we can compare with |\@undefined|.
%
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/08/11}{\cs{ldf@quit} is not delayed any

%   immediately}
% \changes{babel~3.9g}{2012/08/11}{Preset the ``family'' of macros
%   \cs{Babel}...}
%
%   If so, we call |\ldf@quit| to set the main language, restore the
%   category code of the @-sign and call |\endinput|
%
%    When |#2| was \emph{not} a control sequence we construct one and
%    compare it with |\relax|.
%
%    Finally we check |\originalTeX|.

%  \begin{macro}{\initiate@active@char}
%    A language definition file can call this macro to make a
%    character active. This macro takes one argument, the character
%    that is to be made active. When the character was already active
%    this macro does nothing. Otherwise, this macro defines the
%    control sequence |\normal@char|\m{char} to expand to the
%    character in its `normal state' and it defines the active
%    character to expand to |\normal@char|\m{char} by default
%    (\m{char} being the character to be made active). Later its
%    definition can be changed to expand to |\active@char|\m{char}
%    by calling |\bbl@activate{|\m{char}|}|.
%
%    For example, to make the double quote character active one could
%    have |\initiate@active@char{"}| in a language definition file.
%    This defines |"| as |\active@prefix "\active@char"| (where the
%    first |"| is the character with its original catcode, when the
%    shorthand is created, and |\active@char"| is a single token). In
%    protected contexts, it expands to |\protect "| or |\noexpand "|
%    (ie, with the original |"|); otherwise |\active@char"| is
%    executed. This macro in turn expands to |\normal@char"| in
%    ``safe'' contexts (eg, |\label|), but |\user@active"| in normal
%    ``unsafe'' ones. The latter search a definition in the user,
%    language and system levels, in this order, but if none is found,
%    |\normal@char"| is used.  However, a deactivated shorthand (with
%    |\bbl@deactivate| is defined as |\active@prefix "\normal@char"|.
%
%    The following macro is used to define shorthands in the three
%    levels. It takes 4 arguments: the (string'ed) character,
%    |\<level>@group|, |<level>@active| and |<next-level>@active|
%    (except in |system|).

%    known. The macro takes 4 arguments, the language/attribute, the
%    attribute list, the \TeX-code to be executed when the attribute
%    is known and the \TeX-code to be executed otherwise.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\bbl@ifknown@ttrib#1#2{%

%    We first assume the attribute is unknown.

%  \subsection{Support for saving macro definitions}
%
%  To save the meaning of control sequences using |\babel@save|, we
%  use temporary control sequences.  To save hash table entries for
%  these control sequences, we don't use the name of the control
%  sequence to be saved to construct the temporary name.  Instead we
%  simply use the value of a counter, which is reset to zero each time
%  we begin to save new values.  This works well because we release
%  the saved meanings before we begin to save a new set of control
%  sequence meanings (see |\selectlanguage| and |\originalTeX|). Note
%  undefined macros are not undefined any more when saved -- they are
%  |\relax|'ed.
%
%  \begin{macro}{\babel@savecnt}
%  \begin{macro}{\babel@beginsave}
%    The initialization of a new save cycle: reset the counter to
%    zero.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\babel@beginsave{\babel@savecnt\z@}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Before it's forgotten, allocate the counter and initialize all.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcount\babel@savecnt
\babel@beginsave
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\babel@save}
%    The macro |\babel@save|\meta{csname} saves the current meaning of
%    the control sequence \meta{csname} to
%    |\originalTeX|\footnote{\cs{originalTeX} has to be
%    expandable, i.\,e.\ you shouldn't let it to \cs{relax}.}.
%    To do this, we let the current meaning to a temporary control
%    sequence, the restore commands are appended to |\originalTeX| and
%    the counter is incremented.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\babel@save#1{%
  \expandafter\let\csname babel@\number\babel@savecnt\endcsname#1\relax
  \toks@\expandafter{\originalTeX\let#1=}%

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\babel@savevariable}
%
%    The macro |\babel@savevariable|\meta{variable} saves the value of
%    the variable.  \meta{variable} can be anything allowed after the
%    |\the| primitive.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}

%
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@frenchspacing}
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@nonfrenchspacing}
%    Some languages need to have |\frenchspacing| in effect. Others
%    don't want that. The command |\bbl@frenchspacing| switches it on
%    when it isn't already in effect and |\bbl@nonfrenchspacing|
%    switches it off if necessary.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\bbl@frenchspacing{%

% \subsection{Short tags}
%
% \begin{macro}{\babeltags}

%
%    Macros to insert common hyphens. Note the space before |@| in
%    |\babelhyphen|. Instead of protecting it with
%    |\DeclareRobustCommand|, which could insert a |\relax|, we use
%    the same procedure as shorthands, with |\active@prefix|.

%
%    The following two commands are used to wrap the ``hyphen'' and
%    set the behaviour of the rest of the word -- the version with a
%    single |@| is used when further hyphenation is allowed, while
%    that with |@@| if no more hyphen are allowed. In both cases, if
%    the hyphen is preceded by a positive space, breaking after the
%    hyphen is disallowed.
%
%    There should not be a discretionaty after a hyphen at the
%    beginning of a word, so it is prevented if preceded by a
%    skip. Unfortunately, this does handle cases like ``(-suffix)''.
%    |\nobreak| is always preceded by |\leavevmode|, in case the

%
%    Finally, we define the hyphen ``types''. Their names will not

%
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/09/05}{Added tentative code for string
%  declarations}
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/12/24}{Added hooks}
%
% The aim following commands is to provide a commom interface for
% strings in several encodings. They also contains several hooks which
% can be ued by \luatex{} and \xetex. The code is organized here with
% pseudo-guards, so we start with the basic commands.
%
%  \paragraph{Tools}
%
% But first, a couple of tools. The first one makes global a local
% variable. This is not the best solution, but it works.

%    \begin{macrocode}

%    \end{macrocode}
%
% The second one. We need to patch |\@uclclist|, but it is done once
% and only if |\SetCase| is used or if strings are encoded.  The code
% is far from satisfactory for several reasons, including the fact
% |\@uclclist| is not a list any more. Therefore a package option is
% added to ignore it. Instead of gobbling the macro
% getting the next two elements (usually |\reserved@a|), we pass it as
% argument to |\bbl@uclc|. The parser is restarted inside
% |\|\m{lang}|@bbl@uclc| because we do not know how many expansions
% are necessary (depends on whether strings are encoded). The last
% part is tricky -- when uppercasing, we have:

%    Now we define commands to be used inside |\StartBabelCommands|.
%   
%    \paragraph{Strings} The following macro is the actual definition
%    of |\SetString| when it is ``active''
%
%    First save the ``switcher''. Create it if undefined. Strings are
%    defined only if undefined (ie, like |\providescommmand|). With
%    the event |stringprocess| you can preprocess the string by
%    manipulating the value of |\BabelString|. If there are several
%    hooks assigned to this event, preprocessing is done in the same
%    order as defined.  Finally, the string is set.

%  \subsubsection{Umlauts and tremas}
%
%    The command |\"| needs to have a different effect for different
%    languages. For German for instance, the `umlaut' should be
%    positioned lower than the default position for placing it over
%    the letters a, o, u, A, O and U. When placed over an e, i, E or I
%    it can retain its normal position. For Dutch the same glyph is
%    always placed in the lower position.

%  \begin{macro}{\umlautlow}
%    To be able to provide both positions of |\"| we provide two

%    The command |\lower@umlaut| is used to position the |\"| closer

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    The following code fools \TeX's \texttt{make\_accent} procedure
%    about the current x-height of the font to force another placement
%    of the umlaut character.
%    First we have to save the current x-height of the font, because
%    we'll change this font dimension and this is always done

% \subsection{Cross referencing macros}
%
%    The \LaTeX\ book states:
%  \begin{quote}
%    The \emph{key} argument is any sequence of letters, digits, and
%    punctuation symbols; upper- and lowercase letters are regarded as
%    different.
%  \end{quote}
%    When the above quote should still be true when a document is
%    typeset in a language that has active characters, special care
%    has to be taken of the category codes of these characters when
%    they appear in an argument of the cross referencing macros.
%
%    When a cross referencing command processes its argument, all
%    tokens in this argument should be character tokens with category
%    `letter' or `other'.
%
%    The only way to accomplish this in most cases is to use the trick
%    described in the \TeX book~\cite{DEK} (Appendix~D, page~382).
%    The primitive |\meaning| applied to a token expands to the
%    current meaning of this token.  For example, `|\meaning\A|' with
%    |\A| defined as `|\def\A#1{\B}|' expands to the characters
%    `|macro:#1->\B|' with all category codes set to `other' or
%    `space'.
%  \begin{macro}{\newlabel}
%    The macro |\label| writes a line with a |\newlabel| command
%    into the |.aux| file to define labels.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%\bbl@redefine\newlabel#1#2{%
%  \@safe@activestrue\org@newlabel{#1}{#2}\@safe@activesfalse}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\@newl@bel}
%    We need to change the definition of the \LaTeX-internal macro
%    |\@newl@bel|. This is needed because we need to make sure that
%    shorthand characters expand to their non-active version.
%
%    The following package options control which macros are to be
%    redefined.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<<*More package options>>
\DeclareOption{safe=none}{\let\bbl@opt@safe\@empty}
\DeclareOption{safe=bib}{\def\bbl@opt@safe{B}}
\DeclareOption{safe=ref}{\def\bbl@opt@safe{R}}
%<</More package options>>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    First we open a new group to keep the changed setting of
%    |\protect| local and then we set the |@safe@actives| switch to
%    true to make sure that any shorthand that appears in any of the
%    arguments immediately expands to its non-active self.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifx\bbl@opt@safe\@empty\else
  \def\@newl@bel#1#2#3{%
   {\@safe@activestrue
    \bbl@ifunset{#1@#2}%
       \relax
       {\gdef\@multiplelabels{%
          \@latex@warning@no@line{There were multiply-defined labels}}%
        \@latex@warning@no@line{Label `#2' multiply defined}}%
    \global\@namedef{#1@#2}{#3}}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\@testdef}
%    An internal \LaTeX\ macro used to test if the labels that have
%    been written on the |.aux| file have changed.  It is called by
%    the |\enddocument| macro. This macro needs to be completely
%    rewritten, using |\meaning|. The reason for this is that in some
%    cases the expansion of |\#1@#2| contains the same characters as
%    the |#3|; but the character codes differ. Therefore \LaTeX\ keeps
%    reporting that the labels may have changed.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
  \CheckCommand*\@testdef[3]{%
    \def\reserved@a{#3}%
    \expandafter\ifx\csname#1@#2\endcsname\reserved@a
    \else
      \@tempswatrue
    \fi}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Now that we made sure that |\@testdef| still has the same
%    definition we can rewrite it. First we make the shorthands
%    `safe'.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
  \def\@testdef#1#2#3{%
    \@safe@activestrue
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Then we use |\bbl@tempa| as an `alias' for the macro that
%    contains the label which is being checked.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \expandafter\let\expandafter\bbl@tempa\csname #1@#2\endcsname
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Then we define |\bbl@tempb| just as |\@newl@bel| does it.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \def\bbl@tempb{#3}%
    \@safe@activesfalse
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When the label is defined we replace the definition of
%    |\bbl@tempa| by its meaning.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ifx\bbl@tempa\relax
    \else
      \edef\bbl@tempa{\expandafter\strip@prefix\meaning\bbl@tempa}%
    \fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    We do the same for |\bbl@tempb|.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \edef\bbl@tempb{\expandafter\strip@prefix\meaning\bbl@tempb}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    If the label didn't change, |\bbl@tempa| and |\bbl@tempb| should
%    be identical macros.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ifx\bbl@tempa\bbl@tempb
    \else
      \@tempswatrue
    \fi}
\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\ref}
%  \begin{macro}{\pageref}
%    The same holds for the macro |\ref| that references a label
%    and |\pageref| to reference a page. So we redefine |\ref| and
%    |\pageref|. While we change these macros, we make them robust as
%    well (if they weren't already) to prevent problems if they should
%    become expanded at the wrong moment.

%  \begin{macro}{\@citex}
%    The macro used to cite from a bibliography, |\cite|, uses an

%    It is this internal macro that picks up the argument(s),
%    so we redefine this internal macro and leave |\cite| alone. The
%    first argument is used for typesetting, so the shorthands need
%    only be deactivated in the second argument.

%
%    Unfortunately, the packages \pkg{natbib} and \pkg{cite} need a

%    To begin with, \pkg{natbib} has a definition for |\@citex| with

%  \begin{macro}{\bibcite}
%    The macro that is used in the |.aux| file to define citation

%    |\@safe@activestrue| is in effect. This switch needs to be reset
%    inside the |\hbox| which contains the citation label. In order to
%    determine during \file{.aux} file processing which definition of
%    |\bibcite| is needed we define |\bibcite| in such a way that it
%    redefines itself with the proper definition.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}

%    Because the output routine is asynchronous, we must
%    pass the current language attribute to the head lines, together
%    with the text that is put into them. To achieve this we need to
%    adapt the definition of |\markright| and |\markboth| somewhat.

%    \cs{markboth}}  
%
%    We check whether the argument is empty; if it is, we just make
%    sure the scratch token register is empty.  Next, we store the
%    argument to |\markright| in the scratch token register. This way
%    these commands will not be expanded later, and we make sure that
%    the text is typeset using the correct language settings. While
%    doing so, we make sure that active characters that may end up in
%    the mark are not disabled by the output routine kicking in while
%    \cs{@safe@activestrue} is in effect.

% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/09/07}{Redefine only if `ref' is `safe'}
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2013/01/03}{Moved to babel.def}
%
%    Sometimes a document writer wants to create a special effect
%    depending on the page a certain fragment of text appears on. This
%    can be achieved by the following piece of code:
% \begin{verbatim}
%    \ifthenelse{\isodd{\pageref{some:label}}}
%               {code for odd pages}
%               {code for even pages}
%\end{verbatim}
%    In order for this to work the argument of |\isodd| needs to be
%    fully expandable. With the above redefinition of |\pageref| it is
%    not in the case of this example. To overcome that, we add some
%    code to the definition of |\ifthenelse| to make things work.
%
%    The first thing we need to do is check if the package
%    \pkg{ifthen} is loaded. This should be done at |\begin{document}|
%    time.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}

%
%    When the package varioref is in use we need to modify its

%
%    The package \pkg{varioref} defines |\Ref| to be a robust command

%    (internal) command \verb*|\Ref | to call |\org@ref| instead of
%    |\ref|. The disadvantgage of this solution is that whenever the

%
%    So at |\begin{document}| we check whether \pkg{hhline} is loaded.

%    \begin{macrocode}

%  Because documents may use non-ASCII font encodings, we make sure

%  \textsf{fontenc} deletes its package options, so we must guess
%  which encodings has been loaded by traversing |\@filelist| to
%  search for \m{enc}|enc.def|. If a non-ASCII has been loaded, we
%  define versions of |\TeX| and |\LaTeX| for them using
%  |\ensureascii|. The default ASCII encoding is set, too (in reverse

%  \begin{macro}{\latinencoding}
%    When text is being typeset in an encoding other than `latin'

%    option. The normal way to do this (using |\@ifpackageloaded|) is

%  \begin{macro}{\iflanguage}
%    Users might want to test (in a private package for instance)
%    which language is currently active. For this we provide a test
%    macro, |\iflanguage|, that has three arguments.  It checks
%    whether the first argument is a known language. If so, it
%    compares the first argument with the value of |\language|. Then,
%    depending on the result of the comparison, it executes either the
%    second or the third argument.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}

%
%  \end{macro}
%
%   \subsection{Selecting the language}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\selectlanguage}
%    The macro |\selectlanguage| checks whether the language is
%    already defined before it performs its actual task, which is to
%    update |\language| and activate language-specific definitions.
%
%    To allow the call of |\selectlanguage| either with a control
%    sequence name or with a simple string as argument, we have to use
%    a trick to delete the optional escape character.
%
%    To convert a control sequence to a string, we use the |\string|
%    primitive.  Next we have to look at the first character of this
%    string and compare it with the escape character.  Because this
%    escape character can be changed by setting the internal integer
%    |\escapechar| to a character number, we have to compare this
%    number with the character of the string.  To do this we have to
%    use \TeX's backquote notation to specify the character as a
%    number.
%
%    If the first character of the |\string|'ed argument is the
%    current escape character, the comparison has stripped this
%    character and the rest in the `then' part consists of the rest of
%    the control sequence name.  Otherwise we know that either the
%    argument is not a control sequence or |\escapechar| is set to a
%    value outside of the character range~$0$--$255$.
%
%    If the user gives an empty argument, we provide a default
%    argument for |\string|.  This argument should expand to nothing.
%
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/11/16}{\cs{bbl@select@type} keep tracks of
%    the selection method: 0 is select, 1 is foreign}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\let\bbl@select@type\z@
\edef\selectlanguage{%
  \noexpand\protect
  \expandafter\noexpand\csname selectlanguage \endcsname}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Because the command |\selectlanguage| could be used in a moving
%    argument it expands to \verb*=\protect\selectlanguage =.
%    Therefore, we have to make sure that a macro |\protect| exists.
%    If it doesn't it is |\let| to |\relax|.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifx\@undefined\protect\let\protect\relax\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    As \LaTeX$\:$2.09 writes to files \textit{expanded} whereas
%    \LaTeXe\ takes care \textit{not} to expand the arguments of
%    |\write| statements we need to be a bit clever about the way we
%    add information to \file{.aux} files. Therefore we introduce the
%    macro |\xstring| which should expand to the right amount of
%    |\string|'s.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifx\documentclass\@undefined
  \def\xstring{\string\string\string}
\else
  \let\xstring\string
\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \end{macro}
%
%    Since version 3.5 \babel\ writes entries to the auxiliary files in
%    order to typeset table of contents etc. in the correct language
%    environment.
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@pop@language}
%    \emph{But} when the language change happens \emph{inside} a group
%    the end of the group doesn't write anything to the auxiliary
%    files. Therefore we need \TeX's |aftergroup| mechanism to help
%    us. The command |\aftergroup| stores the token immediately
%    following it to be executed when the current group is closed. So
%    we define a temporary control sequence |\bbl@pop@language| to be
%    executed at the end of the group. It calls |\bbl@set@language|
%    with the name of the current language as its argument.
%
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@language@stack}
%    The previous solution works for one level of nesting groups, but
%    as soon as more levels are used it is no longer adequate. For
%    that case we need to keep track of the nested languages using a
%    stack mechanism. This stack is called |\bbl@language@stack| and
%    initially empty.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\bbl@language@stack{}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When using a stack we need a mechanism to push an element on the
%    stack and to retrieve the information afterwards.
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@push@language}
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@pop@language}
%    The stack is simply a list of languagenames, separated with a `+'
%    sign; the push function can be simple:
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\bbl@push@language{%
  \xdef\bbl@language@stack{\languagename+\bbl@language@stack}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Retrieving information from the stack is a little bit less simple,
%    as we need to remove the element from the stack while storing it
%    in the macro |\languagename|. For this we first define a helper function.
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@pop@lang}
%    This macro stores its first element (which is delimited by the
%    `+'-sign) in |\languagename| and stores the rest of the string
%    (delimited by `-') in its third argument.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\bbl@pop@lang#1+#2-#3{%
  \edef\languagename{#1}\xdef#3{#2}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%  \end{macro}
%    The reason for the somewhat weird arrangement of arguments to the
%    helper function is the fact it is called in the following way.
%    This means that before |\bbl@pop@lang| is executed \TeX\ first
%    \emph{expands} the stack, stored in |\bbl@language@stack|. The
%    result of that is that the argument string of |\bbl@pop@lang|
%    contains one or more language names, each followed by a `+'-sign
%    (zero language names won't occur as this macro will only be
%    called after something has been pushed on the stack) followed by
%    the `-'-sign and finally the reference to the stack.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\bbl@pop@language{%
  \expandafter\bbl@pop@lang\bbl@language@stack-\bbl@language@stack
  \expandafter\bbl@set@language\expandafter{\languagename}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Once the name of the previous language is retrieved from the stack,
%    it is fed to |\bbl@set@language| to do the actual work of
%    switching everything that needs switching.

%
%  \begin{macro}{\bbl@set@language}
% 
%    The macro |\bbl@set@language| takes care of switching the
%    language environment \emph{and} of writing entries on the
%    auxiliary files.  For historial reasons, language names can be
%    either |language| of |\language|. To catch either form a trick is
%    used, but unfortunately as a side effect the catcodes of letters
%    in |\languagename| are not well defined. The list of auxiliary
%    files can be extended by redefining |\BabelContentsFiles|, but
%    make sure they are loaded inside a group (as |aux|, |toc|,
%    |lof|, and |lot| do) or the last language of the document will
%    remain active afterwards.
%
%    We also write a command to change the current language in the

%    \section{Loading hyphenation patterns}
%
%  The following code is meant to be read by ini\TeX\ because it
%  should instruct \TeX\ to read hyphenation patterns. To this end the
%  \texttt{docstrip} option \texttt{patterns} can be used to include
%  this code in the file \file{hyphen.cfg}. Code is written with lower
%  level macros.
%
%    |toks8| stores info to be shown when the program is run.
%
% \changes{babel~3.9g}{2013/05/30}{Code moved from plain.def}
%
%    We want to add a message to the message \LaTeX$\:$2.09 puts in
%    the |\everyjob| register. This could be done by the following
%    code: 
%    \begin{verbatim}
%    \let\orgeveryjob\everyjob
%    \def\everyjob#1{%
%      \orgeveryjob{#1}%
%      \orgeveryjob\expandafter{\the\orgeveryjob\immediate\write16{%
%          hyphenation patterns for \the\loaded@patterns loaded.}}%
%      \let\everyjob\orgeveryjob\let\orgeveryjob\@undefined}
%    \end{verbatim}
%    The code above redefines the control sequence \cs{everyjob}
%    in order to be able to add something to the current contents of
%    the register. This is necessary because the processing of
%    hyphenation patterns happens long before \LaTeX\ fills the
%    register.
%
%    There are some problems with this approach though.
%  \begin{itemize}
%    \item When someone wants to use several hyphenation patterns with
%    \SliTeX\ the above scheme won't work. The reason is that \SliTeX\
%    overwrites the contents of the |\everyjob| register with its own
%    message.
%    \item Plain \TeX\ does not use the |\everyjob| register so the
%    message would not be displayed.
%  \end{itemize}
%    To circumvent this a `dirty trick' can be used. As this code is
%    only processed when creating a new format file there is one
%    command that is sure to be used, |\dump|. Therefore the original
%    |\dump| is saved in |\org@dump| and a new definition is supplied.
%
%    To make sure that \LaTeX$\:$2.09 executes the
%    |\@begindocumenthook| we would want to alter |\begin{document}|,
%    but as this done too often already, we add the new code at the
%    front of |\@preamblecmds|. But we can only do that after it has
%    been defined, so we add this piece of code to |\dump|.
%
%    This new definition starts by adding an instruction to write a
%    message on the terminal and in the transcript file to inform the
%    user of the preloaded hyphenation patterns.
%
%    Then everything is restored to the old situation and the format
%    is dumped.

%    catching synonyms without a language.)
%
%    Otherwise the name will be a synonym for the language loaded last.

%
%  \begin{macro}{\process@language}
%    The macro |\process@language| is used to process a non-empty line
%    from the `configuration file'. It has three arguments, each
%    delimited by white space. The first argument is the `name' of a
%    language; the second is the name of the file that contains the
%    patterns. The optional third argument is the name of a file
%    containing hyphenation exceptions.
%
%    The first thing to do is call |\addlanguage| to allocate a
%    pattern register and to make that register `active'.
%    Then the `name' of the language that will be loaded now is
%    added to the token register |\toks8|. and finally
%    the pattern file is read.
%
% \changes{babel~3.9a}{2012/12/10}{Removed \cs{selectfont} (I presume
%    it was intended to catch wrong encoding codes, but I don't think
%    this is necessary and as a side effect it might preload fonts)}
%
%    For some hyphenation patterns it is needed to load them with a
%    specific font encoding selected. This can be specified in the
%    file \file{language.dat} by adding for instance `\texttt{:T1}' to
%    the name of the language. The macro |\bbl@get@enc| extracts the
%    font encoding from the language name and stores it in
%    |\bbl@hyph@enc|. The latter can be used in hyphenation files if
%    you need to set a behaviour depending on the given encoding (it
%    is set to empty if no encoding is given).
%
%    Pattern files may contain assignments to |\lefthyphenmin| and
%    |\righthyphenmin|. \TeX\ does not keep track of these
%    assignments. Therefore we try to detect such assignments and
%    store them in the |\|\langvar|hyphenmins| macro. When no
%    assignments were made we provide a default setting.
%
%    Some pattern files contain changes to the |\lccode| en |\uccode|
%    arrays. Such changes should remain local to the language;
%    therefore we process the pattern file in a group; the |\patterns|
%    command acts globally so its effect will be remembered.
%
%    Then we globally store the settings of |\lefthyphenmin| and
%    |\righthyphenmin| and close the group.
%
%    When the hyphenation patterns have been processed we need to see
%    if a file with hyphenation exceptions needs to be read. This is
%    the case when the third argument is not empty and when it does
%    not contain a space token. (Note however there is no need to save
%    hyphenation exceptions into the format.)

%    \section{The `nil' language}
%
%    This `language' does nothing, except setting the hyphenation patterns to
%    nohyphenation.
%
%    For this language currently no special definitions are needed or
%    available.
%
%    The macro |\LdfInit| takes care of preventing that this file is
%    loaded more than once, checking the category code of the
%    \texttt{@} sign, etc.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*nil>
\ProvidesLanguage{nil}[<@date@> <@version@> Nil language]
\LdfInit{nil}{datenil}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When this file is read as an option, i.e. by the |\usepackage|
%    command, \texttt{nil} could be an `unknown' language in which
%    case we have to make it known. 
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifx\l@nohyphenation\@undefined
   \@nopatterns{nil}
   \adddialect\l@nil0
\else
   \let\l@nil\l@nohyphenation
\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    This macro is used to store the values of the hyphenation
%    parameters |\lefthyphenmin| and |\righthyphenmin|.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\providehyphenmins{\CurrentOption}{\m@ne\m@ne}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    The next step consists of defining commands to switch to (and
%    from) the `nil' language.
% \begin{macro}{\captionnil}
% \begin{macro}{\datenil}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\let\captionsnil\@empty
\let\datenil\@empty
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \end{macro}
% \end{macro}
%  
%    The macro |\ldf@finish| takes care of looking for a
%    configuration file, setting the main language to be switched on
%    at |\begin{document}| and resetting the category code of
%    \texttt{@} to its original value.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ldf@finish{nil}

%  \section{Support for Plain \TeX}
%
%  \subsection{Not renaming \file{hyphen.tex}}
%    As Don Knuth has declared that the filename \file{hyphen.tex} may
%    only be used to designate \emph{his} version of the american
%    English hyphenation patterns, a new solution has to be found in
%    order to be able to load hyphenation patterns for other languages
%    in a plain-based \TeX-format. 
%    When asked he responded:
%    \begin{quote}
%      That file name is ``sacred'', and if anybody changes it they will
%      cause severe upward/downward compatibility headaches.
%
%      People can have a file localhyphen.tex or whatever they like,
%      but they mustn't diddle with hyphen.tex (or plain.tex except to
%      preload additional fonts). 
%    \end{quote}
%
%    The files \file{bplain.tex} and \file{blplain.tex} can be used as
%    replacement wrappers around \file{plain.tex} and
%    \file{lplain.tex} to acheive the desired effect, based on the
%    \pkg{babel} package. If you load each of them with ini\TeX, you
%    will get a file called either \file{bplain.fmt} or
%    \file{blplain.fmt}, which you can use as replacements for
%    \file{plain.fmt} and \file{lplain.fmt}.
%
%    As these files are going to be read as the first thing ini\TeX\
%    sees, we need to set some category codes just to be able to
%    change the definition of |\input|
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*bplain|blplain>
\catcode`\{=1 % left brace is begin-group character
\catcode`\}=2 % right brace is end-group character
\catcode`\#=6 % hash mark is macro parameter character
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Now let's see if a file called \file{hyphen.cfg} can be found
%    somewhere on \TeX's input path by trying to open it for
%    reading... 
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\openin 0 hyphen.cfg
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    If the file wasn't found the following test turns out true.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifeof0
\else
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When \file{hyphen.cfg} could be opened we make sure that
%    \emph{it} will be read instead of the file \file{hyphen.tex}
%    which should (according to Don Knuth's ruling) contain the
%    american English hyphenation patterns and nothing else.
%
%    We do this by first saving the original meaning of |\input| (and
%    I use a one letter control sequence for that so as not to waste
%    multi-letter control sequence on this in the format).
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
  \let\a\input
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Then |\input| is defined to forget about its argument and load
%    \file{hyphen.cfg} instead.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
  \def\input #1 {%
    \let\input\a
    \a hyphen.cfg
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Once that's done the original meaning of |\input| can be restored
%    and the definition of |\a| can be forgotten.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \let\a\undefined
  }
\fi
%</bplain|blplain>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Now that we have made sure that \file{hyphen.cfg} will be loaded
%    at the right moment it is time to load \file{plain.tex}.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<bplain>\a plain.tex
%<blplain>\a lplain.tex
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Finally we change the contents of |\fmtname| to indicate that
%    this is \emph{not} the plain format, but a format based on plain
%    with the \pkg{babel} package preloaded.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<bplain>\def\fmtname{babel-plain}
%<blplain>\def\fmtname{babel-lplain}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    When you are using a different format, based on plain.tex you can
%    make a copy of blplain.tex, rename it and replace \file{plain.tex}
%    with the name of your format file.

% The file |babel.def| expects some definitions made in the \LaTeX{}
% style file. So we must provide them at least some predefined values as
% well some tools to set them (even if not all options are
% available). There in no package options, and therefore and alternative
% mechanism is provided. For the moment, only |\babeloptionstrings| and
% |\babeloptionmath| are provided, which can be defined before loading
% \babel. |\BabelModifiers| can be set too (but not sure it works).
