% README of the french style files distribution for \AllTeX 97/12/10
% Copyright GUTenberg-Bernard Gaulle as in french.doc
%
CAUTION : ALL FILES HAVE CHANGED since the last distribution.
This material was designed to help (La)TeX users to print french documents
i.e. according to french typographic habits.
[The checksum field that appears in allmost files contains a CRC-16 checksum as
the first value, followed by the equivalent of the standard UNIX wc (word
count) utility output of lines, words, and characters. This is produced by
Robert Solovay's checksum utility.]
Before installation ask yourself the question: is my TeX engine
installation able to process any 8-bit character (ie a char with
decimal code upper than 127)? If not, may be you don't have:
either the good fonts (look at the EC for example),
or the good TeX V3 motor (look also at MlTeX).
The french style directory, as distributed by his author is composed of
other directories. The main directory hosts the following files and
directories: (The number of bytes of this README may differ)

%%<============================================================================
Quick description of contents:
ALIRE : this file.
ALIRE.dvi : (in fact: frenchlu.dvi) PRINT IT FIRST, here is the
installation procedure to follow --in french.
ALIRE.ps : (the same in PostScript)
*.txt : simple text related to any known TeX engine, few
recommandations for installation (sometimes still to write).
Changements : (in french) list of improvments.
Copyright : you must read it to know your rights and your duties.
DROIT.tex : a french doc. about Internet rights & duties (regard. software)
FAQ : basic Frequently Asked Questions about (All)TeX and french.
FTPinfos : warning about binary files (for ftp users).
GUTenberg : just a pointer to the french association of users.
Makefile.unx : author's Makefile for Unix, to configure.
MlTeX dir. : for information about Multi-Lingual TeX.
README : this file.
REGISTER : some warnings for you if you don't accept to be registered.
contrib dir. : you will find other language-styles running friendly
with the french style. Look at its README file.
doc directory : the source files to produce the documentation.
frmsgOK : the message you will send after installation.
frmsgPB : the message you may send if any pb is encountered.
history : backgroud changes prior the previous distribution
initex dir. : look at its README for the INITEX time material
(contains a subdirectory for testing purposes)
inputs dir. : here are the files used for input to (All)TeX
kb2lex.tex : a (La)TeX pgm generating .lex files in order to
generate 7-bit <==> 8-bit translators. For people
having no lex pgm, the following is provided (lex output):
kb7to8.c : a sample C pgm to translate 7-bit to 8-bit accordingly
to "my" keyboard.dat (given in directory inputs)
kb8to7.c : a sample C pgm to transle 8-bit to 7-bit accordingly
to "my" keyboard.dat (given in directory inputs)
Those sample contain the following file which can stand for a patch for LEX
when no main program is generated (CC complain):
main.patchlex : main pgm to merge with yy.lex.c for bypassing pbs.
latexenv : environnement setting example to configure to your own needs.
tst directory : useful tests for french.sty validation. (torture tests).
YOUR "TO DO" LIST:
=================
1- Print and read ALIRE.dvi or ALIRE.ps (which is in french). This is the users
guide and the installation guide _for you_. A users guide is also provided
in the doc directory, this one is _for users_.
Print also the file *.txt where
* is the name of your TeX engine (web2c, textures, tetex, ...).
2- Are you willing to create a new format with the french files? If yes, go
to the initex directory and then come back here.
3- Are you willing to use keyboard.dat? for example to generate
7-bit <==> 8-bit translators, so update it in directory inputs, if not
already done for initex.
4- kb7to8 and kb8to7 generation: look at kb2lex.tex
5- If you are not using the default keyboard encoding,
translate f7abbrev.tex to frabbrev.tex via any pgm like kb7to8.
6- Go to the tst directory for validation.
7- If not already done: copy the inputs directory to your usual
directory TEXINPUT (i.e. for everybody).
8- Drop me the registration message frmsgOK.
Optionally, look at the contrib directory.
I hope you enjoy it,
Bernard GAULLE
