+
+X-Symbol's Copying Conditions: GPL
+==================================
+
+   (This text is stolen from the TeXinfo manual, Edition 4.0).
+
+   The programs currently being distributed that relate to X-Symbol
+include Emacs Lisp files and X11 font files.  These programs are "free";
+this means that everyone is free to use them and free to redistribute
+them on a free basis.  The X-Symbol related programs are not in the
+public domain; they are copyrighted and there are restrictions on their
+distribution, but these restrictions are designed to permit everything
+that a good cooperating citizen would want to do.  What is not allowed
+is to try to prevent others from further sharing any version of these
+programs that they might get from you.
+
+   Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give
+away copies of the programs that relate to X-Symbol, that you receive
+source code or else can get it if you want it, that you can change these
+programs or use pieces of them in new free programs, and that you know
+you can do these things.
+
+   To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to
+deprive anyone else of these rights.  For example, if you distribute
+copies of the X-Symbol related programs, you must give the recipients
+all the rights that you have.  You must make sure that they, too,
+receive or can get the source code.  And you must tell them their
+rights.
+
+   Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone
+finds out that there is no warranty for the programs that relate to
+X-Symbol.  If these programs are modified by someone else and passed
+on, we want their recipients to know that what they have is not what we
+distributed, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect
+on our reputation.
+
+   The precise conditions of the licenses for the programs currently
+being distributed that relate to X-Symbol are found in the General
+Public Licenses that accompany them.

+
+Brief Summary of X-Symbol
+=========================
+
+   * X-Symbol provides a *minor mode* which make use of characters in
+     the Latin-1, Latin-2, Latin-3, Latin-5, and Latin-9 font (179
+     chars + 294 char aliases), the Adobe symbol font (109 chars) and
+     the xsymb1 font (165 chars, distributed with the package).
+     Additional fonts could be used easily.
+
+   * These characters are used in the buffer to represent *tokens*
+     (e.g., TeX macros, SGML entities, more "token languages" could be
+     added easily) in the file.  The *conversion* is done automatically
+     when visiting the file, saving the buffer and turning the minor
+     mode on/off.
+
+   * Defines 8 *input methods* for these characters: *Menu*, *Grid*
+     (selecting a character with the mouse), *Keyboard*, *Context*
+     (replace/modify similar-looking char sequence), *Electric*
+     (automatic replace), *Quail* (a Mule input method), *Token*
+     (replace token by corresponding char), *Read Token* (completing
+     minibuffer input of token).
+
+   * Offers some *info* in the echo area for these characters (e.g.,
+     that the character under point represents the TeX macro `\leadsto'
+     and that the macro is defined in LaTeX package `latexsym.sty').
+
+   * Allows to use a *8bit file encoding* which is different from your
+     "normal" 8bit file encoding, e.g., you can visit TeX files with
+     `\usepackage[latin5]{inputenc}' even if you normally use a Latin-2
+     font.
+
+   * Provides a kind of "*poor man's Mule*" when running on an XEmacs
+     without Mule support: it can *display* more than 256 characters
+     via `font-lock' and removes most annoyances resulting from the
+     fact that, without Mule support, many "X-Symbol characters" are
+     actually a sequence of two chars.
+
+   * Provides fonts for single-line innermost *super-* and *subscripts*
+     to be displayed with per-buffer control. The invisible part, like
+     `<sub>' in HTML, is revealed at point.
+
+   * Displays thumbnails for *images* at the end of image insertion
+     commands with per-buffer control (e.g., `\includegraphics{FILE}'
+     in LaTeX, `<img src=FILE>' in HTML).  They show a scaled-down
+     version of the included image files (using `convert' from
+     ImageMagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/)).  A single mouse click
+     on the image or command invokes the image editor for the
+     corresponding image file.
+
+   * It *does not* and *will not* provide commands to hide (more or
+     less) uninteresting parts of your document or fontify them
+     differently.  This is more the task of the corresponding major
+     mode or `font-lock', e.g., `font-latex'.  (I admit, the support of
+     super- and subscripts might let you think that this is a good
+     point for the todo list of package X-Symbol.)  Using
+     `outline-minor-mode' or folding might also be an alternative.
+
+   If you prefer a more WYSIWYG-like document processor, you should
+probably use `LyX' or `GNU TeXmacs'.  Here are some reasons why you
+would use Emacs/XEmacs with package X-Symbol instead:
+
+   * You have complete control over the LaTeX source.  X-Symbol supports
+     more characters.
+
+   * You can read any LaTeX source and you write normal LaTeX code,
+     i.e., package X-Symbol does not use any special format.
+
+   * It also supports HTML and TeXinfo documents and BibTeX entries.
+
+   * You can use your favorite editor, i.e., Emacs or XEmacs.

+About this Manual
+=================
+
+   Apart from this manual, there are two other sources of information
+about X-Symbol:
+
+   * The web pages of X-Symbol provide a summary of X-Symbol, including
+     some screen shots.  You are strongly encouraged to read them
+     carefully.  They probably provide enough info for the standard
+     user and can be found at:
+
+            `http://x-symbol.sourceforge.net/'
+
+   * The online help for commands (functions) and user options
+     (variables) is quite technical.  It is shown during customization
+     and when using Emacs' Help menu.
+
+   This manual is somewhere in between: it more detailed than the web
+pages and less technical than the online help.  For example, when
+explaining some functionality, it states the default behavior, gives an
+impression of what can be customized, and it even lists all related
+user options, but it does not describes the technical format of
+possible values of each option.
+
+   Section *Note X-Symbol Internals:: is for the curious reader and for
+people who want to define their own token language.
+
+   This manual does not explain Emacs in general or some optional
+programs used by this package such as `convert' (used to produce the
+image thumbnails).  It also includes no installation instructions for
+those programs and the author of this package will not help you with the
+installation of those programs (sorry for that).
+
+   You do not have to learn this manual by heart before sending a
+question to the maintainer of X-Symbol, but you should give the
+impression that your really have tried to find the necessary
+information yourself and spend some time making your report precise.
+Before sending a problem report, please read *Note Bug Reports::.

+Installation
+************
+
+   The short version of the installation instructions for package
+X-Symbol on XEmacs is: uncompress & extract the *binary distribution* in
+directory `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/', add `(x-symbol-initialize)' to
+your `~/.emacs' and install ImageMagick for the image support (unless
+you want to get a warning).
+
+   Please check the web page *additionally* to the sections here for
+the installation instructions for package X-Symbol on Emacs.
+
+   The rest of this chapter contains the long version.  I recommend that
+you read this chapter completely after a short test of X-Symbol,
+especially if you have customized your Emacs more or less heavily or if
+you get some problems.

+
+Requirements
+============
+
+   This development version of package X-Symbol works with Emacs-21.1 or
+higher, and XEmacs 20.4 or higher (XEmacs-21.1.9 is strongly
+recommended, *Note FAQ XEmacs Core::), with or without Mule support.
+
+   X-Symbol should work with all window systems Emacs is running under
+(Mac is not testet and might not work).  Under X, no restrictions apply.
+Under Windows with Emacs, images will not be displayed (they are not yet
+supported by Emacs under Windows).  Under Windows with XEmacs, X-Symbol
+just supports a limited number of characters (Latin-1, Latin-5, and half
+the math symbols) and no super- and subscripts, due to missing
+MS-Windows fonts (*note Wishlist Fonts::.).  Under a character terminal,
+X-Symbol just supports Latin-1 characters only, no super- and subscripts
+and no images.
+
+   This package require package `font-lock' (distributed with Emacs and
+XEmacs), the use of package `lazy-shot' is recommended, see *Note
+Syntax Hiliting Packages::.
+
+   If you want to see the images at the end of image insertion commands,
+install `convert' from ImageMagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/), see
+*Note Installing Image Converter::.  They show a scaled-down version of
+the included image files.
+
+   If you want to produce the Info files yourself (they are included in
+the binary distribution), you need `makeinfo', Version 1.68 or higher.
+If you want to produce a PS file from the manual, you need `texi2dvi'.
+If you want to produce an HTML version of this manual, you need
+`texi2html', Version 1.62 or higher.  *Note Installing Manual::.

+
+Put the Files into your Home Directory
+======================================
+
+   If you use Emacs, please check the
+web pages of X-Symbol (http://x-symbol.sourceforge.net/news.html).
+
+   In this section, we assume that you want to install the binary
+distribution (also called the binary tarball) of package X-Symbol in
+your home directory.  To install it somewhere below the XEmacs root (it
+might be already there), see *Note System-wide Installation::.  If you
+use the source distribution, you should know what do to instead.
+
+   In directory `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/', run
+     zcat x-symbol-pkg.tar.gz | tar xvf -
+
+   Remember that `tar' does not overwrite write-protected files.
+
+   X-Symbol's `pcf' files and font directory must be world-readable
+since you do not own the X11 font server process.  You are on the safe
+side, if you run
+     chmod -R a+rx ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages
+
+   If package X-Symbol has been installed system-wide and you install a
+newer version in your `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/', you get a warning
+during XEmacs' startup (autoload error: already loaded).  You can
+safely ignore this warning, but there is unfortunately no good way to
+get rid of it.  Yes, XEmacs' packaging system is excellent, but there
+is still a place for improvements....
+
+   Before XEmacs-21.0: the user package directory was `~/.xemacs/'
+instead of `~/.xemacs/packages/'; also: delete and recompile the `.elc'
+files.

+
+System-wide Installation: Put the Files into the XEmacs Directory
+=================================================================
+
+   You can skip this section if your have installed X-Symbol in your
+home directory according to the previous section.
+
+   If you install package X-Symbol system-wide, use `default.el' and
+`XEMACS/site-packages/' whenever `~/.emacs' and
+`~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/' are mentioned in the previous or following
+subsections.  `XEMACS/site-packages/' is the directory of independent
+packages for XEmacs.
+
+   Under XEmacs-21, you can uncompress and extract the tarball by
+
+     M-x package-admin-add-binary-package <RET> DIR/x-symbol-pkg.tar.gz
+
+   Then, `XEMACS/' is the default directory of buffer `*Package
+Output*' (use `C-x C-f' in that buffer to see it).  It might be
+`/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/' (the first element in variable
+`late-packages').
+
+   Under XEmacs-20, `XEMACS/' might be
+`/usr/local/lib/xemacs-VERSION/'.  Here, you have to uncompress and
+extract the tarball as described in *Note Installing Files::.  You also
+have to load the autoload file explicitly by putting the following line
+into file `site-start.el':
+
+     (load "XEMACS/lisp/x-symbol/auto-autoloads")
+
+   I would appreciate if you would set the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-installer-address'
+     Please set this variable to your email address to catch problems
+     which could be solved locally.  In your private `~/.emacs', you
+     might want to set this variable to `nil'.
+
+`x-symbol-package-url'
+     If you have a local copy of the web pages (*note Installing
+     Manual::.), set this variable to the corresponding URL.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Installing Lisp,  Next: Installing Image Converter,  Prev: System-wide Installation,  Up: Installation
+
+Make XEmacs Initialize X-Symbol During Startup
+==============================================
+
+   Put the following into your `~/.emacs' (or `~/.xemacs/init.el'):
+
+     (x-symbol-initialize)
+
+   Basically, that's it!  If your XEmacs runs on a different machine,
+check *Note Installing Fonts::.
+
+   If you get a warning about X-Symbol not being able to deduce a
+default encoding (or about limited support with XEmacs under Windows or
+a character terminal, *Note Requirements::), set the default coding
+(*note Default Coding::.) by putting the following in front of the line
+above:
+
+     (setq x-symbol-default-coding 'iso-8859-1)
+
+   When running Emacs under a character terminal, you might need to use
+the following (with or without X-Symbol):
+
+     (unless window-system (standard-display-european 1))
+
+   If your character terminal does not support Latin characters, there
+is no reason to use package X-Symbol.  In this case, use the following
+instead:
+
+     (when window-system (x-symbol-initialize))
+
+   The initialization can be controlled by the following variable:
+
+`x-symbol-initialize'
+     By default, package X-Symbol does a full initialization.  This
+     includes an integration with some packages, see also *Note Package
+     Integration::.
+
+   If you use a B/W monitor and XEmacs/no-Mule, it might be necessary to
+remove the font properties of any face which is used on regions with
+X-Symbol characters: `isearch', `highlight', `primary-selection',
+`secondary-selection', `paren-match', `paren-mismatch',
+`paren-blink-off', `underline'.  I.e., for each FACE, use:
+
+     (remove-specifier (get (get-face 'FACE) 'font))
+
+

+
+Installing the Image Converter from ImageMagick
+===============================================
+
+   Program `convert' from ImageMagick is used to display images at the
+end of image insertion commands.  The images show a scaled-down version
+of the included image files.
+
+   While the installation of `convert' is optional, you get a warning
+if `convert' is not found on your system or if there is no image format
+supported by both `convert' and Emacs.  Set variable
+`x-symbol-image-converter' to `nil' if you don't want to get the
+warning.
+
+   On Unix, `convert' must be in your `$PATH'.  On Windows, it is
+assumed to be found at `C:\ImageMagick\convert'.  If this is not the
+case, you have to customize the variable
+`x-symbol-image-convert-program'.
+
+   Check `http://www.imagemagick.org/' for the installation
+instructions.  Run `convert -h' and `convert -list Format' (in newer
+versions of ImageMagick) in your shell to check whether the
+installation of ImageMagick was successful.  If you have problems, check
+the ImageMagick web page for FAQs and mailing lists.
+
+   If you do not have a truecolor device (i.e., just 256 colors),
+package X-Symbol uses `convert' with a colormap by default (*note Image
+Conversion::.).  You might create and use your own colormap instead.  It
+should be tuned to include the colors you use in Emacs anyway, i.e., the
+face colors.

+
+Package Integration
+===================
+
+   You might skip this section when trying package X-Symbol the first
+time.  Nevertheless, I strongly recommend to read this section if you
+have customized your Emacs more or less heavily or if you get some
+problems.
+
+   Some features of X-Symbol work by hooking itself into existing
+functions of Emacs or related packages via predefined hooks.  A
+potential problem arises if your customization or other packages use
+the same hooks, or if other packages assume these hooks not to be used,
+e.g., some packages assume the buffer contents to contain the same
+characters as the corresponding file.
+
+   This section lists some special adaptation for other packages
+(everything is fine if you do not use these packages).  It also lists
+potential problems in combination with other packages.  If you discover
+some problems in combination with other packages, please let me know.

+
+LaTeX Packages
+--------------
+
+   Objectives: relate positions in buffer to positions in file, do
+conversion in master/slave buffers, preserve highlighting, improve input
+methods and other things.
+
+`auctex'
+     Use Version 9.9c or higher, which includes `texmathp'.  There is
+     some special X-Symbol adaptation for AucTeX:
+
+        - X-Symbol supports AucTeX's multifile documents: it respects
+          the variable `TeX-master' when searching for the file encoding
+          (*note File Coding::.) and when converting image files with
+          relative names (*note Image Display::.).
+
+        - X-Symbol supports AucTeX's region commands: it ensures that
+          characters in `_region_.tex' buffer are converted according
+          to the parent buffer.  Initialization changes
+          `TeX-region-hook'.  Requires AucTeX, v9.8a or higher.
+
+        - X-Symbol's input method Electric (*note Input Method
+          Electric::.) with token language `tex' uses package
+          `texmathp'.
+
+        - AucTeX's math mode commands also inserts X-Symbol characters
+          (*note Mathematics: (auctex)Mathematics.).  Initialization
+          sets `LaTeX-math-insert-function'.  Requires AucTeX, v9.8a or
+          higher.
+
+        - If TeX displays an error message, it also displays the
+          context of the error position.  AucTeX uses the context to
+          set point to this position when `M-x TeX-next-error' is
+          invoked.  The former context are characters in the file, the
+          latter characters in the buffer, X-Symbol provides the
+          translation.  Initialization changes
+          `TeX-translate-location-hook'.
+
+`bib-cite'
+     Use Version 3.0 or higher.  Initialization of package X-Symbol
+     changes the installation of package bib-cite to make X-Symbol's
+     decoding not overwrite `bib-cite's highlighting of `\cite' and
+     friends.
+
+`preview-latex'
+     TeX's error positions are also used by package `preview-latex',
+     which was clever enough to reuse the above mentioned hook of
+     AucTeX.  Unfortunately, that hook is ... and does not allow a fast
+     translation of error positions, so `preview-latex' allows to
+     provide better variants of functions in that hook.  X-Symbol's
+     variant is `x-symbol-tex-preview-locations'.
+
+`reftex'
+     Use Version 3.26 or higher.  For a workaround for some minor
+     annoyances with the combination RefTeX/X-Symbol/Multifile
+     Document, see *Note Problems and Work-arounds: (reftex)Problems
+     and Work-arounds.  By default, the initialization of package
+     X-Symbol makes RefTeX's label creation use the nicer Asciification
+     of package X-Symbol (*note Ascii Representation::.) by setting
+     `reftex-translate-to-ascii-function'.
+
+`whizzytex'
+     Use the newest.

+
+Syntax Highlighting Packages (`font-lock' and add-ons)
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+   Objectives: start highlighting after conversion.  Highlighting is
+needed for super- and subscripts and when using XEmacs without Mule
+support.
+
+`fast-lock'
+     I recommend to use package `lazy-shot' instead.  By default, the
+     initialization of package X-Symbol sets `fast-lock-save-faces' to
+     `nil' to make package `fast-lock' work with X-Symbol.
+
+`font-latex'
+     I suggest to set `font-lock-maximum-decoration' to value `t', 2 or
+     higher if you do not want to use super- and subscripts in arguments
+     of `\label' and friends.  *Note FAQ Stupid Subscripts::.
+
+`font-lock'
+     Is required by this package (*note Role of font-lock::.).  I
+     strongly recommend *not* to turn on font-lock in *any* mode hook,
+     set `font-lock-auto-fontify' to `t' instead (this is the default,
+     anyway).  See also `lazy-shot'.
+
+     If you turn on font-lock in a mode-hook, visiting a file would
+     become slower, since X-Symbol mode is usually turned on *after* the
+     functions in the mode hook have been run, i.e., the fontification
+     is getting useless if the tokens are automatically decoded.
+
+`lazy-lock'
+     From XEmacs-20.3 on, the successor is called `lazy-shot'.
+
+`lazy-shot'
+     Is strongly recommended.

+
+File I/O Packages
+-----------------
+
+   Issue: compression, encryption and so on can be seen as some kind of
+conversion.  When doing multiple conversion, the sequence matters.
+
+`ange-ftp'
+     See also `efs' and `jka-compr'.
+
+`comint'
+     The default installation makes `comint's in-/output use X-Symbol's
+     conversion function.  If you set variable `comint-input-sender',
+     set it before initializing package X-Symbol.
+
+`crypt'
+`crypt++'
+     I recommend to use package `jka-compr' instead.  *Note Spurious
+     Encodings::.  *Note No Encoding::.  If you use `crypt' or
+     `crypt++' and the character `alpha' looks like `\233a' after
+     `save-buffer', set this variable to `slowest'.  *Note Open
+     Questions::.
+
+`efs'
+     XEmacs' version of `ange-ftp'.  See also `jka-compr'.
+
+`iso-cvt'
+     There is no need to use it.  Package X-Symbol already provides the
+     conversion between Latin-1 characters and "TeX macros".  Package
+     X-Symbol does not provide the German and Spanish conversion tables,
+     though.
+
+`iso-sgml'
+     There is no need to use it.  Package X-Symbol already provides the
+     conversion between Latin-1 characters and "SGML entities".  *Note
+     Miscellaneous Packages::, package `psgml-html'.
+
+`jka-compr'
+     Can be used with package X-Symbol, preferred to `crypt'.  The
+     following is absolutely necessary (with or without using package
+     X-Symbol, at least in older Emacsen): load `jka-compr' after
+     `efs'/`ange-ftp'!
+
+`latin-unity'
+     Can be used with package X-Symbol, functionality is already
+     provided by X-Symbol for Latin-{1,2,3,5,9} characters: remapping
+     (*note Char Aliases::.) and recoding (*note File Coding::.).  Has
+     some safe-encoding mechanism, but the test comes currently too
+     early (*note Wishlist Emacs::.).
+
+`vc'
+     If you use package `crypt', `vc-next-action' and friends encode
+     characters to tokens.  *Note Spurious Encodings::.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Miscellaneous Packages,  Prev: File IO Packages,  Up: Package Integration
+
+Miscellaneous Packages
+----------------------
+
+`abbrev'
+     On XEmacs without Mule support, I recommend to set variable
+     `words-include-escapes' to `t'.  *Note Nomule Problems::.
+
+`completion'
+     Should work with X-Symbol (earlier version of X-Symbol had
+     problems with input method token).
+
+`desktop'
+     XEmacs' version (an old one) does not save its `.emacs.desktop'
+     files with a coding system.  Emacs' version save it with an
+     incorrect coding system.  Thus, strings which contain X-Symbol's
+     private characters might get corrupted.  See also package
+     `session' below.
+
+`flyspell'
+     Should work apart from the general problem of `ispell'.
+
+`func-menu'
+     Should work with X-Symbol.
+
+`ispell'
+     The package `ispell' assumes the buffer contents to be the same as
+     the file contents and does not provide any hook to fix this.  This
+     should be fixed in `ispell', *Note Wishlist Emacs::.  *Note FAQ
+     Spell Check::.
+
+     Use a future version (hopefully v3.4).  Includes special X-Symbol
+     initialization/handling and defines additional token languages.
+     *Note External Languages::.
+
+`psgml-html'
+     `psgml-html': Do not set `html-auto-sgml-entity-conversion' to
+     non-`nil'.  *Note File IO Packages::, package `iso-sgml'.
+
+`session'
+     Use Version 1.5a or higher.  If strings in this file should always
+     be read correctly, you should put `(x-symbol-init-input)' into your
+     `~/.emacs'; otherwise strings containing X-Symbol's private
+     characters read from the `~/.session' file might look funny.  See
+     also package `desktop' above.
+
+`x-compose'
+     All characters from `x-compose' are also supported by package
+     X-Symbol.  Thus, I recommend to use `<multi-key>' instead `C-='
+     when running under XEmacs without Mule support.  *Note Introducing
+     Input Methods::.

+
+Installing Additional Fonts
+===========================
+
+   You don't have to install X-Symbol fonts in usual circumstances (with
+the binary distribution, Emacs runs on the same machine, you are happy
+with the default fonts).
+
+   If your Emacs runs on a different machine, please follow the steps 5
+and 6 below or read the next section.
+
+   If you want to install additional fonts (since the binary
+distribution contains only a limited selection of fonts and font
+sizes), please follow the following sequence which worked for me (on
+SunOS 5.4-5.6/Solaris).  If you have to do s.th. (completely) different
+on your system, please let me know--I will include your hints.
+
+   If you are lost with the following instructions, use the standard
+fonts from the binary distribution.  (Sorry, I do not have to time to
+answer general Unix font questions.  Or to be more exact, I'm not an
+expert in this area....  Nevertheless, if you have a clearer
+explanation for the installation sequence below, please send me a patch
+to `man/x-symbol/x-symbol.texi'.)
+
+  1. Find the font which you want to replace by checking fonts with the
+     X11 program `xfontsel' or `xfd'.  The bad news is that there is no
+     general way to say which character belongs to which font.  My only
+     goal was to use standard fonts whenever possible; the rest belong
+     the the xsymb1 font (which I have designed).  If you want to use a
+     font as an alternative to another font, it must have the same
+     charset registry-encoding.
+
+  2. Find the `.bdf' files of your preferred fonts in your file system
+     or by Internet search engines like Google.  The source
+     distribution of package X-Symbol contains `.bdf' files for
+     additional fonts sizes of all fonts except the xsymb1 font (*note
+     Wishlist Fonts::.).
+
+     There are two categories of `.bdf' files.  The first category
+     contains files for fonts which are already installed; the files are
+     needed to create and install the super- and subscript versions.
+     Copy these files to
+     `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/origfonts/'.  The second
+     category contains files for fonts which are not installed.  Copy
+     these files to `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/fonts/'.
+
+  3. In file `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/fonts/Makefile',
+     change variables `ORIGBDFS' for the first category and `BDFS' for
+     the second category accordingly.
+
+  4. In directory `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/fonts/',
+     execute `make mkdirs', and `make pcfs'.  You need GNUs `make' and
+     `perl', Version 5 (or higher).
+
+  5. If your Emacs runs on a different machine or if you want to use the
+     fonts outside Emacs, too, add X-Symbol's fonts to your font path by
+     inserting the following in your `~/.xsession' (X11 startup file).
+
+          xset +fp ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/pcf/
+
+     For a system-wide installation, you might want to add this
+     directory to the system-wide font path instead.
+
+     If your system doesn't have `xset', you should copy all `.pcf'
+     files (compiled fonts) from
+     `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/pcf/' into directory
+     `/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/' (Slackware distribution) and run
+     `mkfontdir 75dpi' in that directory.
+
+  6. Your are on the safe side if you restart X11 after this.
+
+  7. Set the Emacs Lisp variables which define the fonts.  *Note
+     Installing Fonts Lisp::.

+
+Installing Fonts for Exceed (X-server on Windows)
+=================================================
+
+   If your X-server on Windows is Exceed and if you have configured
+Exceed to use the "native window manager" for your Unix screens, you
+must install the X-Symbol fonts on Windows.  The following works with
+Exceed 6.0 & NT 4.0 and Exceed 7.0 & Windows 2000:
+
+  1. In Unix, edit file
+     `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/fonts/makesub' to limit
+     the shift for superscript to 3 points:
+          %supoffs = ('08',3, 10,3, 12,3, 14,3, 16,3, 18,3, 24,3);
+
+  2. Then, execute `make mkdirs', and `make gens' in
+     `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/fonts/'.  If you have
+     problems, please read the previous section.
+
+  3. In Exceed's configuration window, click on <Font> to open Window
+     `Font Settings'.  In this window, click on <Select All>, then on
+     <Compile Fonts...>.
+
+  4. Copy X-Symbol's `bdf' files in
+     `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/fonts/' and
+     `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/x-symbol/genfonts/' to a Windows
+     directory and select this directory in the Exceed Window `Compile
+     Fonts'.  Click on <Compile>.
+
+  5. In Window `Font Settings', click on <Font Database...>.  In this
+     window, click on <Add...>.  Enter the output directory from the
+     previous step as the `Font Directory' and `xsymb' as the `File
+     Name (*.fdb)'.  Click on <OK>.
+
+  6. You might want to rearrange the sequence of Font DB files to let
+     files `75dpi' appear prior to files `100dpi', because X-Symbol's
+     fonts are designed for 75dpi.

+
+Lisp Coding when Using Other Fonts
+==================================
+
+   Package X-Symbol needs to know which fonts to use for the X-Symbol
+characters and super- and subscripts.  It also must interact with
+package `font-lock' to display them (*note Role of font-lock::.).
+
+   If you have installed additional fonts (*note Installing Fonts::.)
+for use with package X-Symbol, you might have to change the following
+variables:
+
+`x-symbol-latin1-fonts'
+`x-symbol-latin2-fonts'
+`x-symbol-latin3-fonts'
+`x-symbol-latin5-fonts'
+`x-symbol-latin9-fonts'
+`x-symbol-xsymb0-fonts'
+`x-symbol-xsymb1-fonts'
+     The value of each variable consists of three elements: one for the
+     normal text, one for subscripts and one for the superscripts.  Each
+     element is a list of fonts which are tried in order--the first
+     which exists on your system is used.
+
+     If you change the values of one of these variables, do only
+     specify the same charset registry-encoding (e.g.,
+     `adobe-fontspecific') as specified by the fonts in the default
+     value of this variable.
+
+`x-symbol-font-sizes'
+     Here you can specify the sizes for all fonts in the above mentioned
+     variables.  The value consists of regular expressions matching font
+     names and numbers which replace all occurences of `%d' in the
+     names.
+
+   E.g., if you prefer larger fonts, you might want to insert the
+following into your `~/.emacs':
+
+     (setq x-symbol-font-sizes
+       '(18 ("_su[bp]-" . 14) ("\\`-etl-" . 16)))
+     (setq x-symbol-xsymb0-fonts
+       '(("-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal-*-*-%d0-*-*-*-*-adobe-fontspecific"
+          "-xsymb-xsymb0-medium-r-normal--%d-%d0-75-75-p-85-adobe-fontspecific")
+         ("-adobe-symbol_sub-medium-r-normal-*-*-%d0-*-*-*-*-adobe-fontspecific"
+          "-xsymb-xsymb0_sub-medium-r-normal--%d-%d0-75-75-p-74-adobe-fontspecific")
+         ("-adobe-symbol_sup-medium-r-normal-*-*-%d0-*-*-*-*-adobe-fontspecific"
+          "-xsymb-xsymb0_sup-medium-r-normal--%d-%d0-75-75-p-74-adobe-fontspecific")))
+
+   The first assignment changes the font sizes, the second makes
+X-Symbol using the original Adobe symbol font instead of my minor
+modification (appearance) of it.  The xsymb1 font will be scaled, which
+might not look nice (*note FAQ Font Size::.).
+
+   You might want to change the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-latin-force-use'
+     Package X-Symbol defines Latin characters even when the
+     corresponding fonts are missing (this can be changed by this
+     variable).  Characters for the symbol fonts are only defined if
+     the corresponding fonts are available.
+
+`x-symbol-mule-change-default-face'
+     Package X-Symbol does not change the fonts of pre-defined Mule
+     charsets (this can be changed by this variable).  Thus, the
+     variables from Section *Note Installing Fonts Lisp:: might have no
+     influence if Emacs already has defined fonts for the corresponding
+     charsets.

+Installing Info, Postscript and HTML Files
+==========================================
+
+   To create the info files, execute `make info' in directory
+`~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/man/x-symbol/' of the distribution.  It
+requires `makeinfo', Version 1.68 or higher.  This should not be
+necessary if you use the binary distribution of package X-Symbol.
+
+   If no entry for X-Symbol is automatically added to the info directory
+listing, add the following line to `~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/info/dir':
+     * X-Symbol::	 Semi WYSIWYG for LaTeX, HTML and other "token languages"
+
+   Optionally, you might want to create a printed document from the
+TeXinfo file.  Execute `make ps' in directory
+`~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/man/x-symbol/' of the distribution.  It
+requires `texi2dvi'.
+
+   Optionally, you can create an online manual for a web browser by
+executing `make html' in directory
+`~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/man/x-symbol/' of the distribution.  It
+requires `texi2html'.
+
+   All formats of the manual are created by executing `make all'.

+
+Checking the Correct Installation of Package X-Symbol
+=====================================================
+
+   After having completed the installation, exit and restart Emacs.
+
+   * Type `M-x show-message-log' to check whether you got problems so
+     far, e.g., whether errors occurred when loading a file.  If you do,
+     identity and correct the offender.
+
+   * Type `M-x x-symbol-grid' in buffer `*scratch*'.  If you get the
+     Grid but if you see less characters than you see on the web page of
+     package X-Symbol, you have decided to use other fonts but failed to
+     install them correctly.  This is also mentioned in buffer
+     `*Warnings*'.  *Note Installing Fonts::.
+
+   * Move your mouse pointer to any X-Symbol character in buffer
+     `*X-Symbol Grid (x-symbol charsym)*', press the right mouse button
+     and initialize successively all token languages.
+
+   * Again, type `M-x show-message-log' to check whether you got
+     problems so far, e.g., whether errors occurred when loading a
+     file.  If you do, identity and correct the offender.
+
+   * If buffer `*Warnings*' does not exist in the buffer menu,
+     everything is fine.  So is (for me as the author of package
+     X-Symbol), if `X-Symbol' is not mentioned there.  If there is a
+     warning with `no valid image converter', you have forgotten to
+     install ImageMagick (*note Installing Image Converter::.).

+Concepts of Package X-Symbol
+****************************
+

+quite a few forward references to feature which are based on these
+concepts, such as *Note Input Methods:: and *Note Features::.

+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Token Language,  Next: Conversion,  Prev: Concepts,  Up: Concepts
+
+Token Language
+==============
+
+   As mentioned in the overview, "X-Symbol Characters" in the buffer are
+represented by "tokens" in the file.  The correspondence between these
+is determined by the "token language" which is in close relation to the
+major mode of the current buffer.  E.g., character `alpha' stands for
+`\alpha' in LaTeX buffers.
+
+   For details of predefined token languages "TeX macro" (`tex'), "SGML
+entity" (`sgml'), "BibTeX macro" (`bib'), and "TeXinfo command"
+(`texi'), see *Note Supported Languages::.
+
+   The token language determines the conversion between X-Symbol
+characters and tokens (*Note Conversion::), the input methods (*note
+Input Methods::.), and various other features (*note Features::.).
+
+   The token language is defined by the following buffer-local variable:
+
+`x-symbol-language'
+     Token language used in current buffer.  You can set this variable
+     in the "local variables list" near the end of the file (*note File
+     Variables: (xemacs)File Variables.), e.g.:
+
+          %% Local Variables:
+          %% x-symbol-language: tex
+          %% End:
+
+   Package X-Symbol uses a reasonable value according to the major mode
+and the file name of a buffer if the variable is not already
+buffer-local.  A valid token language is required to turn on X-Symbol
+Minor mode, see *Note Minor Mode::.
+
+   A token language must be "registered", if you want to use it.  By
+default, the above mentioned token languages are registered.
+
+

+
+Conversion: Decoding and Encoding
+=================================
+
+   As mentioned, X-Symbol characters in the buffer are represented by
+tokens in the file.  Thus, we need some conversion from tokens to
+characters, called "decoding", and some conversion from characters to
+tokens, called "encoding".
+
+   We have the additional problem that some characters are not only
+represented by tokens, but also via some 8bit character encoding.
+
+   Package X-Symbol supports the following 8bit character encodings:
+Latin-1 (`iso-8859-1'), Latin-2 (`iso-8859-2'), Latin-3 (`iso-8859-3'),
+Latin-5 (`iso-8859-9'), and Latin-9 (`iso-8859-15').  It currently
+supports less encodings with XEmacs on Windows (*note Requirements::.).
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Default Coding::              Normal File and Default Encoding.
+* File Coding::                 Specific encoding of a file.
+* Controlling 8bit Coding::     Do you want to store 8bit characters?
+* Unique Decoding::             Restrict decoding to avoid normalization?
+* Conversion Commands::         Interactive encoding and decoding.

+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Default Coding,  Next: File Coding,  Prev: Conversion,  Up: Conversion
+
+Normal File and Default Encoding
+--------------------------------
+
+   As mentioned, some characters have a 8bit file encoding, and X-Symbol
+needs to know which 8bit file encoding you use normally when visiting a
+file and saving a buffer.
+
+   With Mule support, Emacs/XEmacs can recognize the "normal file
+encoding", also called a coding system (*note Recognize Coding:
+(xemacs)Recognize Coding.).
+
+   Without Mule support, XEmacs can usually only support 8bit
+characters of one encoding; this encoding corresponds to the
+charset/registry of your default font.  Here, the "normal file
+encoding" is the default encoding:
+
+`x-symbol-default-coding'
+     The default encoding.  The value must be a symbol denoting one of
+     the supported encodings or `nil'.  The variable must be set before
+     X-Symbol has been initialized.  *Note Installing Lisp::.
+
+   The "default encoding" is not only used to determine the normal file
+encoding without Mule, but also for the following:
+
+   * X-Symbol has its own mechanism to recognize a file encoding which
+     only works with a specified default encoding.  *Note File Coding::.
+
+   * The same character can be included in various Latin charsets and
+     X-Symbol needs to know which of the instances (which Emacs views as
+     different characters) to support.  *Note Char Aliases::.
+
+   * Without Mule support, the default encoding is also needed to decide
+     which characters have to be faked by 2 characters internally:
+     exactly the characters in those charsets which do not correspond
+     to the default encoding.  *Note Poor Mans Mule::.
+
+   To deduce the default value, X-Symbol inspects the Mule language
+environment and the output of the shell command `locale', or to be more
+exact:
+
+     locale -ck code_set_name charmap
+
+   Without Mule support, you get a warning if the command does not
+exist on your system or lists an encoding which is not supported by
+X-Symbol, such as some Asian encoding.  Value `nil' is the same as
+`iso-8859-1'.
+
+   With Mule support, you get a warning if the command lists a supported
+encoding which is different from the encoding deduced from the Mule
+language environment.  Value `nil' makes sure that X-Symbol file
+encoding detection (*note File Coding::.) only works if Emacs has
+detected the same encoding; it works like `iso-8859-1' otherwise.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: File Coding,  Next: Controlling 8bit Coding,  Prev: Default Coding,  Up: Conversion
+
+File Coding of 8bit Characters
+------------------------------
+
+   X-Symbol can use a different encoding for single buffers/files, even
+if you use X-Symbol on XEmacs without Mule support.  To do so, set the
+following buffer-local variable:
+
+`x-symbol-coding'
+     8bit character encoding in the file visited by the current buffer.
+     Value `nil' represents the normal file encoding (*note Default
+     Coding::.).
+
+     With Mule support, any value other than `nil' is considered invalid
+     if the normal file encoding is neither the same as this value nor
+     the same as the default encoding.  I.e., if your default encoding
+     is `nil', X-Symbol's file encoding detection never takes precedence
+     over Emacs' one, i.e., the normal file encoding.
+
+     You can set this variable in the "local variables list" near the
+     end of the file (*note File Variables: (xemacs)File Variables.),
+     e.g.:
+
+          <!-- Local Variables: -->
+          <!-- x-symbol-coding: iso-8859-2 -->
+          <!-- End: -->
+
+   If the variable is not already buffer-local, a reasonable value is
+deduced when turning on X-Symbol (*note Minor Mode::.) by searching for
+some language dependent headers at the beginning of the file:
+
+`x-symbol-auto-coding-search-limit'
+     X-Symbol usually searches for something like
+     `\usepackage[...]{inputenc}' (*note TeX Macro::.) or `<meta ...
+     charset=...>' (*note SGML Entity::.) in the first 10000 characters.
+
+   If you choose not to save a file containing 8bit characters (*note
+Controlling 8bit Coding::.), the file encoding is still important,
+since the file might contain 8bit characters when you visit it.
+
+   If the file encoding is different to the normal file encoding,
+X-Symbol performs the necessary recoding itself.  "Recoding" changes a
+character with code position POS in one charset to a character with the
+same code position POS in another charset.  If the normal file encoding
+is different to the default encoding, X-Symbol also resolves character
+aliases (*note Char Aliases::.).
+
+   If you have specified an invalid file encoding (including an encoding
+different to a non-default normal file encoding), we have the following
+cases:
+
+   * If the normal file encoding is unsupported (any file encoding is
+     invalid in this case) or if the normal file encoding is supported
+     and the file does not contain 8bit characters, we always encode
+     all X-Symbol character (*Note Controlling 8bit Coding::).  The
+     modeline includes `-i' to represent the file encoding (*note Minor
+     Mode::.), except if the default encoding is `nil', the normal file
+     encoding is unsupported, and the variable `x-symbol-coding' is not
+     specified.
+
+   * If the normal file encoding is supported and the file contains at
+     least one 8bit character, X-Symbol does not touch 8bit characters
+     and never produces them, neither via decoding (*note Unique
+     Decoding::.) nor via input methods.  The modeline includes `-err'
+     to represent the file encoding (*note Minor Mode::.).
+
+   We end with a little example: if your normal file encoding and
+default encoding is Latin-1, and you visit a file with
+`\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}' producing some document containing the
+Euro sign, you see the Euro character in Emacs when X-Symbol is
+enabled, but you see the currency character without X-Symbol.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Controlling 8bit Coding,  Next: Unique Decoding,  Prev: File Coding,  Up: Conversion
+
+Store or Encode 8bit Characters
+-------------------------------
+
+   You can specify that 8bit characters (according to the coding in your
+file, *Note File Coding::), are not encoded to tokens (when saving a
+file), by setting the following buffer-local variable:
+
+`x-symbol-8bits'
+     Whether to store 8bit characters when saving the current buffer.
+
+     You can set this variable in the "local variables list" near the
+     end of the file (*note File Variables: (xemacs)File Variables.),
+     e.g.:
+
+          %% Local Variables:
+          %% x-symbol-8bits: t
+          %% End:
+
+   If the variable is not already buffer-local, a reasonable value is
+deduced when turning on X-Symbol (*note Minor Mode::.) by setting it the
+the value of `x-symbol-coding', or searching in the file for 8bit
+characters:
+
+`x-symbol-auto-8bit-search-limit'
+     If there is a 8bit character in the file when visiting it,
+     X-Symbol will also store 8bit characters when saving the buffer.
+
+   If the file encoding is invalid (*note File Coding::.), we always
+search for 8bit characters in the complete document and set
+`x-symbol-8bits' accordingly.  Then, a non-`nil' value also implies
+unique decoding (*note Unique Decoding::.).
+
+   While the variable `x-symbol-8bits' usually only influences the
+encoding, it also influences the decoding if you choose to decode
+uniquely (*note Unique Decoding::.).
+
+   Setting variable `x-symbol-8bits' to `nil' does not necessarily mean
+that the file will not contain 8bit characters: the characters might
+have no token representation in the current token language (*note
+TeXinfo Command::.), or they are glyphs for ununsed code points in the
+Latin-3 charset.  In both cases, it is unlikely that you have inserted
+these invalid characters via X-Symbol's input methods (*note
+Introducing Input Methods::.), you have probably copied them into the
+current buffer.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Unique Decoding,  Next: Conversion Commands,  Prev: Controlling 8bit Coding,  Up: Conversion
+
+Unique Decoding
+---------------
+
+   Token languages might define more than one token representing the
+same character.  When decoding and encoding these tokens, they will be
+"normalized" to one form, the "canonical representation".  E.g., with
+language `tex', visiting a file with tokens `\neq' and `\ne' converts
+both tokens to character `lessequal', saving the buffer stores the
+character as token `\neq' in both occurrences.
+
+   It can also happen that a file contains both a 8bit character and a
+token which would be converted to exactly that character.  When saving
+the file, both characters are either not encoded, or both are encoded to
+the same token.
+
+   Normally, this is no problem.  But if you redefine standard TeX
+macros, it certainly could be the case (*note TeX Macro Problems::.)!
+For this reason, package X-Symbol provides the following buffer-local
+variable:
+
+`x-symbol-unique'
+     Whether to limit the decoding in such a way that no normalization
+     will happen.  That means: only decode canonical tokens, and, if
+     `x-symbol-8bits' is non-`nil' (*note Controlling 8bit Coding::.),
+     do not decode tokens which would be decoded to 8bit characters
+     (according to the coding in your file, *Note File Coding::).
+
+     You can set this variable in the "local variables list" near the
+     end of the file (*note File Variables: (xemacs)File Variables.),
+     e.g., together with a setting for `x-symbol-8bits':
+
+          %% Local Variables:
+          %% x-symbol-8bits: t
+          %% x-symbol-unique: t
+          %% End:
+
+   If the variable is not already buffer-local, a reasonable value is
+deduced when turning on X-Symbol (*note Minor Mode::.): it will be set
+to `t' if X-Symbol mode is not automatically turned on.
+
+   If the file encoding is invalid (*note File Coding::.) and
+`x-symbol-8bits' is non-`nil' (*note Controlling 8bit Coding::.),
+X-Symbol always uses unique decoding (*note Unique Decoding::.).
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Conversion Commands,  Next: Copy with Conversion,  Prev: Unique Decoding,  Up: Conversion
+
+Conversion Commands
+-------------------
+
+   First the good news: most of the time, the necessary conversions are
+performed automatically when you would expect them to be performed:
+
+   * Turning X-Symbol minor mode (*note Minor Mode::.) on/off also
+     performs decoding/encoding.
+
+   * Saving a buffer where X-Symbol is enabled will encode the
+     characters to tokens in the file (of course, you keep to have the
+     characters in the buffer).
+
+   * Inserting a file into a buffer where X-Symbol is enabled will
+     decode the tokens in the inserted region.
+
+   Nevertheless, you might want to perform the conversions explicitly in
+some situations by using one of the following commands (also to be found
+in the menu):
+
+`M-x x-symbol-decode-recode'
+     Recode all characters (if necessary) and decode all tokens to
+     characters.
+
+`M-x x-symbol-decode'
+     Decode all tokens to characters, do not recode characters.
+
+`M-x x-symbol-encode-recode'
+     Encode all characters in buffer to tokens or recode them.
+
+`M-x x-symbol-encode'
+     Encode all characters in buffer to tokens.  No recoding will be
+     performed since 8bit characters will always be encoded if the file
+     coding is different to the default coding, since `x-symbol-8bits'
+     is relative to the file coding, *Note Controlling 8bit Coding::.
+
+   All commands work on the region if it is active, or the (narrowed
+part of the) buffer if no region is active.
+
+   If the file coding is the same as the default coding, the variants
+with and without recoding (*note File Coding::.) do the same.  The
+variants with recodings are the ones used when doing the conversion
+automatically.  The variants without recodings are the ones used when
+using the special Copy & Paste commands presented in the next
+subsection.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Copy with Conversion,  Next: Char Aliases,  Prev: Conversion Commands,  Up: Conversion
+
+Copy & Paste with Conversion
+----------------------------
+
+   You probably use X-Symbol, because you want to produce some
+non-ASCII characters in your final document, but you are not really
+interested what kind of token you would need to write.  (After all, you
+do not use a hex editor to produce documents using some non-ASCII
+encoding in the file, since you are not interested in the byte sequence
+of individual characters.)
+
+   Consequently, all editing operations really work on characters, not
+on the corresponding tokens for the token language of the current
+buffer.  This includes copying and pasting: if you copy the character
+`plusminus' from a LaTeX buffer to a HTML buffer, you really copy that
+character and not the three characters of the TeX macro `\pm'.
+
+   If you copy text to a buffer where X-Symbol is not enabled, like a
+mail buffer, that is probably not what you want.  Similarly, you would
+probably like to see the X-Symbol characters for tokens in a text which
+you have copied from such a buffer.  Therefore, X-Symbol provides the
+following commands (also to be found in the menu):
+
+`M-x x-symbol-copy-region-encoded'
+     Save the region in the `kill-ring' with all X-Symbol characters
+     encoded like by `M-x x-symbol-encode', i.e., without recoding.
+
+`M-x x-symbol-yank-decoded'
+     Reinsert the last text in the `kill-ring' and decode the inserted
+     text like `M-x x-symbol-decode', i.e., without recoding.
+
+   You could get the same result with the usual copy & paste commands
+and the conversion commands from the previous section (*note Conversion
+Commands::.), but this would clutter the undo information of the current
+buffer and would require an additional undo operation for the copy.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Char Aliases,  Prev: Copy with Conversion,  Up: Conversion
+
+Character Aliases
+-----------------
+
+   A "character alias" or "char alias" is a character which is also a
+character in a font with another registry, e.g., `adiaeresis' is
+defined in all supported Latin fonts.  Emacs distinguish between these
+five characters.  In package X-Symbol, one of them, with
+`x-symbol-default-coding' (*note Default Coding::. if possible, is
+supported by the input methods, the other ones are char aliases to the
+supported one.
+
+   The reason is that it would be confusing for the user to choose among
+different `adiaeresis'es and that there are neither different
+`adiaeresis'es in Unicode nor in the token representations of languages
+`tex' and `sgml'.
+
+   8bit characters in files with a file coding `x-symbol-coding' other
+than `x-symbol-default-coding' are converted to the "normal" form.
+E.g., if you have a Latin-1 font by default, the `adiaeresis' in a
+Latin-2 encoded file is a Latin-1 `adiaeresis' in the buffer.  When
+saving the buffer, its is again the right 8bit character in the Latin-2
+encoded file.
+
+   Thus, in normal cases, buffers do not have char aliases.  In Emacs
+with Mule support, this is only possible if you copy characters from
+buffers with characters considered as char aliases by package X-Symbol,
+e.g., from the Mule file `european.el'.  In XEmacs without Mule support,
+this is only possible if you use commands like `C-q 2 3 4'.
+
+   If you have char aliases in the current buffer, you might want to use
+(it is not really necessary, just when searching for characters):
+
+`M-x x-symbol-unalias'
+     Resolve all character aliases in buffer.  If the region is active,
+     only resolve char aliases in the region.
+
+   A single char alias before point can be resolved by command
+`x-symbol-modify-key' and `x-symbol-rotate-key', see *Note Input Method
+Context::.
+
+   The XEmacs package `latin-unity' provides a command to "remap"
+characters to one character set (if possible).  X-Symbol's unaliasing
+can be seen as remap operations to a fixed sequence of character sets.

+
+Minor Mode
+==========
+
+   X-Symbol is a minor mode (*note Minor Modes: (xemacs)Minor Modes.)
+which enables the features mentioned in this manual:
+
+   * X-Symbol mode is required to do the conversions.  Turning the
+     minor mode on/off also includes decoding/encoding (*note
+     Conversion Commands::.).
+
+   * X-Symbol mode provides the minor mode menu which includes: various
+     commands, commands to insert characters (*note Input Method
+     Menu::.), and entries to change some global and buffer-local
+     variables mentioned in this manual.
+
+   * X-Symbol mode is required for most input methods (*note Input
+     Methods::.)  and other features (*note Features::.).
+
+   With the default installation, X-Symbol mode is automatically turned
+on when it is appropriate to do so (see below for details).  You can
+control it for individually by the following command:
+
+`M-x x-symbol-mode'
+     Toggle X-Symbol mode.  If provided with a prefix argument, turn
+     X-Symbol mode on if the numeric value of the argument is positive,
+     else turn it off.  If no token language can be deduced, ask for a
+     token language; if provided with a non-numeric prefix argument
+     (`C-u M-x x-symbol-mode'), always ask.
+
+     By default, X-Symbol mode is disabled in special major-modes
+     visiting a file, e.g., `vm-mode' (*note FAQ News and Mail::.).
+     Use a prefix argument to be asked whether to turn in on anyway.
+
+   Turning X-Symbol mode on requires that you have a valid token
+language for the current buffer.  Since turning X-Symbol mode on also
+decodes tokens, it is also useful to set the variables which control the
+conversion (*note Conversion::.).
+
+   Since people usually do not want to write some Emacs Lisp functions
+to do some customizations, X-Symbol provides the following variables
+which induce X-Symbol to set the necessary buffer-local variables when
+X-Symbol is turned on:
+
+`x-symbol-auto-style-alist'
+     You can use the major mode and/or the name of the buffer or visited
+     file, and specific functions to set the following variables (if not
+     already buffer-local):
+
+        - `x-symbol-token-language' (*note Token Language::.),
+          indicated in the modeline, e.g. `tex',
+
+        - `x-symbol-mode', i.e., whether it is appropriate to turn on
+          X-Symbol mode automatically,
+
+        - `x-symbol-coding' (*note File Coding::.), indicated in the
+          modeline if different from the default coding, e.g. `-l2' for
+          Latin-2,
+
+        - `x-symbol-8bits' (*note Controlling 8bit Coding::.),
+          indicated in the modeline by `8',
+
+        - `x-symbol-unique' (*note Unique Decoding::.), indicated in
+          the modeline by `*',
+
+        - `x-symbol-subscripts' (*note Super and Subscripts::.),
+          indicated in the modeline by `s',
+
+        - `x-symbol-image' (*note Images::.), indicated in the modeline
+          by `i',
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-modes'
+     Major modes which use token language LANG by default.  *Note
+     Supported Languages::.
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-auto-style'
+     Default values for the above mentioned variables `x-symbol-mode',
+     `x-symbol-coding', `x-symbol-8bits', `x-symbol-unique',
+     `x-symbol-subscripts', and `x-symbol-image' if not already
+     buffer-local.
+
+`x-symbol-auto-mode-suffixes'
+     Regular expression matching file suffixes to be ignored when
+     checking file names for the derivation above, e.g., extension
+     `.orig'.
+
+`x-symbol-modeline-state-list'
+     This variable controls the modeline appearance just mentioned.
+
+     The menu might also include individual entries for a token
+     language (*note TeX Macro Basics::.):
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-extra-menu-items'
+     Extra menu items for each token language LANG (*note TeX Macro
+     Basics::.).

+
+Poor Man's Mule: Running Under XEmacs/no-Mule
+=============================================
+
+   Using XEmacs/no-Mule normally means that you are restricted to use
+not more than 256 different characters in your documents.
+
+   Package X-Symbol provides a lot more characters which can also be
+used with XEmacs/no-Mule.  Internally, all X-Symbol characters except
+the ones of your default font (*note Default Coding::.) are represented
+by two characters, see *Note Char Representation::.
+
+   This can lead to a lot of problems, which are resolved by the
+following methods (some annoyances remain, *note Nomule Problems::.)
+when X-Symbol mode is turned on (*note Minor Mode::.):
+
+   * After each editing command, i.e., point movement, deletion of text
+     and insertion of text, package X-Symbol checks whether just one of
+     the two internal characters of an X-Symbol character has been
+     affected.
+
+   * Package `font-lock' is used to display these two-character
+     sequences with the correct fonts.  The potential problem lies in
+     the set-up of the corresponding font-lock keywords, see *Note Role
+     of font-lock::.
+
+    `x-symbol-nomule-fontify-cstrings'
+          Alternatively to enabling `font-lock', you can run this
+          functions in buffers having the special two-character
+          sequences.  With the default installation, this function is
+          run in the selection buffers of package `reftex'.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Role of font-lock,  Next: Char Group,  Prev: Poor Mans Mule,  Up: Concepts
+
+The Role of `font-lock'
+=======================
+
+   Package X-Symbol uses package `font-lock' to display super- and
+subscripts (*note Super and Subscripts::.) and to display its special
+characters under XEmacs/no-Mule (*note Poor Mans Mule::.).  Thus, you
+should enable `font-lock' in buffers where you want to use X-Symbol (it
+is by default).  *Note Syntax Hiliting Packages::.
+
+   When X-Symbol mode is turned on, it automatically adds the necessary
+font-lock keywords to the buffer-local value of `font-lock-keywords'
+and all font-lock keywords which are commonly used with the current
+token language.
+
+   Setting all font-lock keywords is important since `font-lock' might
+not yet been turned on or since you might want to change `font-lock's
+decoration of the current buffer after X-Symbol has been turned on.
+
+   Please note that switching the mode by typing `M-x latex-mode' *does
+not set* the LaTeX's font-lock keywords!  They are set at the end of
+`C-x C-f'.  If you switch the mode, turn on `font-lock' by yourself.
+
+   Independently from package X-Symbol, the following command might be
+useful in some situations:
+
+`M-x x-symbol-fontify'
+     Refontify buffer.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Char Group,  Prev: Role of font-lock,  Up: Concepts
+
+Character Group and Token Classes
+=================================
+
+   Each X-Symbol character belongs to a "character group", e.g.,
+`natnums' belongs to `setsymbol'.  A character group should consists of
+similar characters where "similar" means similar meaning, not similar
+appearance.  Two characters which have nearly the same appearance,
+should be in the same group, though.  The group determines:
+
+   * The Grid and submenu header under which the character can be found
+     (*note Input Method Grid::., *Note Input Method Menu::).
+
+   * The default bindings of characters (*note Input Method
+     Keyboard::.) of some groups.
+
+   * Whether to show the context info for a character (*note Info::.).
+
+   * The default ASCII representation of a character (*note Ascii
+     Representation::.).
+
+   * When using Emacs/XEmacs with Mule support, the syntax of a
+     character (*note Syntax: (xemacs)Syntax.).
+
+   The character group is independent from any token language, but is
+probably somewhat related to some of its "token classes".  For each
+token language, each character is assigned to a list of token classes,
+which can be used for the following:
+
+   * Information in the echo area (*note Info::.), it could inform
+     users to include a specific LaTeX package when they want to use
+     that character in the document.
+
+   * Using a "coloring scheme" when displaying the characters in the
+     echo area (*note Info::.) or the Grid of characters (*note Input
+     Method Grid::.), useful for characters which can just be used in a
+     specific context, like TeX's math-mode characters.
+
+   * Restricting the "electricity" of input method Electric (*note
+     Input Method Electric::.), useful to disable this input methods
+     for TeX's math-mode characters if we are in text-mode.
+
+   The token classes for individual token languages are explained in the
+corresponding sections of chapter *Note Supported Languages:::
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-header-groups-alist'
+     The Grid and Menu headers for each token language LANG.
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-class-alist'
+     Strings for the character info in the echo area for each token
+     language LANG.
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-class-face-alist'
+     The coloring scheme for each token language LANG.

+
+X-Symbol's Input Methods
+************************
+
+   An X-Symbol "input method" is a way, provided by package X-Symbol,
+to insert a X-Symbol character (not in the sense of Mule's "input
+methods").  For a short overview with screenshots, see the
+web pages of X-Symbol (http://x-symbol.sourceforge.net/details.html).
+
+   Input methods Token and Electric change the normal way to insert
+characters a bit.  Therefore, they require X-Symbol mode to be turned on
+and can be turned off explicitly.  The other input methods are provided
+with additional commands and key prefixes, they can also be used in
+buffers where X-Symbol mode is turned off.
+
+   With AucTeX, Version 9.8a or higher, its math mode commands also
+inserts X-Symbol characters (*note Mathematics: (auctex)Mathematics.).

+
+Common Behavior of All Input Methods
+====================================
+
+   Input methods normally just inserts "valid characters" which are
+those characters which have a useful representation in the file:
+
+`x-symbol-valid-charsym-function'
+     When X-Symbol is turned off, a character is valid if it is an 8bit
+     character according to the value of `x-symbol-default-coding'.
+
+     When X-Symbol is turned on, a character is valid if the characters
+     could be encoded to a token in language `x-symbol-language' (*note
+     Token Language::.).
+
+   If a buffer is read-only (*note Misc Buffer: (xemacs)Misc Buffer.),
+most input methods push the character to insert onto the kill ring
+instead.  Typing `C-y' lets you then insert the character (*note
+Yanking: (xemacs)Yanking.).
+
+   The input methods Keyboard, Menu and Grid (the character selection
+with `<button2>') have the same interpretation of the prefix argument:
+
+   * With prefix argument `0', do not insert anything, just barf, if the
+     character is not valid.
+
+   * With a positive prefix argument, insert a character that many
+     times.  Barf, if the character is not valid.
+
+   * With a negative prefix argument, insert a character as many times
+     as specified by the absolute value of the prefix argument.  A
+     character is also inserted if it is not valid.
+
+   * With one or more `C-u's with no digits, insert the token of a
+     language to choose, including "x-symbol charsym" (*note Pseudo
+     Language::.).
+
+   Many input commands of package X-Symbol uses the same key prefix in
+its default binding:
+
+`x-symbol-compose-key'
+     By default, `C-=' is used as the key prefix.  Under XEmacs/no-Mule,
+     you might want to use `<multi-key>' instead:
+
+          (unless (featurep 'mule) (setq x-symbol-compose-key '(multi-key)))
+
+`x-symbol-auto-key-autoload'
+     Set this to `nil', if you do not want that pressing `C-='
+     automatically initializes the input methods.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Input Method Token,  Next: Input Method Read Token,  Prev: Introducing Input Methods,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Input Method Token: Replace Token by Character
+==============================================
+
+   If X-Symbol mode is on, input method "Token" automatically replaces
+the token by the corresponding character when inserting the next
+character following the token (in some token languages you need the next
+character to decide whether the token is completed) if it is valid.
+
+   The token will be replaced only if the next character has been
+inserted without prefix argument or with prefix argument 0 (`C-u 0'),
+the latter will therefore just induce the replacement.
+
+   Please note that the token is really replaced by the characters, it
+is not just `font-lock' which highlights the token to look like a
+character.
+
+   You might want to press `C-/' or `C-x u' to undo the replacement.
+Input method Token requires X-Symbol mode to be enabled, it can be
+disabled (and re-enabled) by setting the following variable:
+
+`x-symbol-token-input'
+     A boolean which can also be changed via the X-Symbol menu.
+
+   Individual token language might slightly change the way input method
+Token works exactly; from the predefined language, it is just `tex'
+(*note TeX Macro::.).
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Input Method Read Token,  Next: Input Method Menu,  Prev: Input Method Token,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Input Method Read Token: Minibuffer Completion
+==============================================
+
+   You can insert a character by reading the corresponding token in the
+minibuffer.  You are offered completion over the known tokens (*note
+Completion: (xemacs)Completion.).
+
+`M-x x-symbol-read-token-direct'
+`C-= <TAB>'
+     Insert character by selecting a token in the current token language
+     (even if X-Symbol mode is turned off) or an "x-symbol charsym"
+     (*note Pseudo Language::.).
+
+`M-x x-symbol-read-token'
+`C-= <RET>'
+     Insert character by first selecting the token language and then a
+     token in that language.
+
+   Input method Read Token also works if X-Symbol mode is not enabled.
+It uses the common interpretation of prefix arguments for X-Symbol
+insert commands, see *Note Introducing Input Methods::.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Input Method Menu,  Next: Input Method Grid,  Prev: Input Method Read Token,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Input Method Menu: Select a Menu Item
+=====================================
+
+   If X-Symbol mode is turned on, a "Menu" `X-Symbol' appears in the
+menubar (*note Minor Mode::.).  It also appears over non-highlighted
+parts in the Grid and the Key Completions buffer (*note Input Method
+Grid::.).  The menu allows to change buffer-local and global variables
+(some directly, some via package `custom').  It has a submenu with the
+most interesting commands of package X-Symbol.
+
+   The menu has submenus with commands to insert X-Symbol characters.
+The submenu headers are the same as the headers in the Grid, see *Note
+Char Group::.  The appearance of the menu can be customized:
+
+`x-symbol-local-menu'
+     With a valid token language, the X-Symbol menu only contains
+     insertion commands for valid characters.  The entries are
+     mentioned and sorted according to the token.  Otherwise, the
+     X-Symbol menu contains all characters, the entries are mentioned
+     according to their charsym name.
+
+`x-symbol-menu-max-items'
+     The submenus do not contain more than 30 insertion commands for
+     X-Symbol characters.  A submenu is split if necessarily.
+
+   Input method Menu also works if X-Symbol mode is not enabled.  It
+uses the common interpretation of prefix arguments for X-Symbol insert
+commands, see *Note Introducing Input Methods::.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Input Method Grid,  Next: Input Method Keyboard,  Prev: Input Method Menu,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Input Method Grid: Choose Highlighted Character
+===============================================
+
+   Probably the easiest way to insert a character is by using a "Grid"
+of characters:
+
+`M-x x-symbol-grid'
+`C-= C-='
+     Pops up a buffer displaying X-Symbol characters in a grid like
+     fashion.  You can select a character with the mouse or `<RET>',
+     see below.
+
+   In the Grid buffer and the buffer with the possible completions for
+an X-Symbol key sequence (*note Input Method Keyboard::.), the following
+commands are used if the mouse pointer is over an highlighted character.
+
+`<button2>'
+`<RET>'
+`<SPC>'
+     Insert highlighted character (or character under point,
+     respectively) into the buffer of `point' if `point' is not in the
+     same buffer as the highlighted character.  Otherwise, insert the
+     character into the reference buffer, i.e., the buffer where you
+     have invoked the grid or the key completions from.  (The reference
+     to the buffer is erased when an X-Symbol character is inserted
+     into any buffer.)
+
+`<button3>'
+     Pops up a highlight menu where you can select to insert the token
+     of various token languages instead the character itself.  In order
+     not to load and initialize all additional token language you have
+     not yet used, the menu offers to do so explicitly for supported
+     (registered) token languages (*note Token Language::.).
+
+   Over all non-highlighted parts, the following commands are used:
+
+`<button2>'
+     Scroll Grid or Key Completions buffer down in upper half of the
+     window and scroll up in the lower half of the window.
+
+`<button3>'
+     Pops up the X-Symbol menu, *Note Input Method Menu::).
+
+   When using the keyboard to select a character, the following command
+could be useful:
+
+`M-x x-symbol-list-info'
+`?'
+`h'
+`i'
+     Display info for character under point in echo area.
+
+`M-x x-symbol-list-bury'
+`q'
+     Bury list buffer while trying to use the old window configuration.
+
+   You can control the grid by the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-local-grid'
+     With a valid token language, the Grid only contains insertion
+     commands for valid characters and might use a coloring scheme.
+     Otherwise, it contains all characters.
+
+`x-symbol-temp-grid'
+     Inserting an X-Symbol character does not restore the window
+     configuration current before the invocation of the Grid.
+
+`x-symbol-grid-reuse'
+     Use old Grid when invoking command `x-symbol-grid', if this is
+     reasonably to do.  If `x-symbol-grid' is called with a prefix
+     argument, always create new Grid.
+
+`x-symbol-grid-ignore-charsyms'
+     The Grid does not contain `nobreakspace'.
+
+`x-symbol-grid-tab-width'
+     The tab width in the Grid buffer should correspond the font in
+     `x-symbol-heading-face' which is also used as the default font in
+     the Grid buffer.
+
+`x-symbol-heading-strut-glyph'
+     Use larger interline spacing if a line in the Grid starts with a
+     header.
+
+   The headers in the Grid are the same as the submenu headers, see
+*Note Char Group::.  Similar looking characters for one headers are
+grouped together.  *Note Input Method Context::.
+
+   Input method Grid also works if X-Symbol mode is not enabled.  It
+uses the common interpretation of prefix arguments for X-Symbol insert
+commands, see *Note Introducing Input Methods::.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Input Method Keyboard,  Next: Input Method Context,  Prev: Input Method Grid,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Input Method Keyboard: Compose Key Sequence
+===========================================
+
+   Key sequences starting with `C-=' (*note Introducing Input
+Methods::.) are used to insert X-Symbol characters, e.g., `C-= ~ >'
+inserts `leadsto'.  The Ascii sequence of the keys after `C-=' look
+similar to the character which you are going to insert.  It is the same
+as the sequence which is replaced by input method Context, see *Note
+Input Method Context::.
+
+   If many characters are represented by the same Ascii sequence, the
+binding is extended by `1', `2' and so on.  If you do not know how to
+continue your key sequence, the following commands might be useful:
+
+`M-x x-symbol-help'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS <help>'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS C-h'
+     Pops up a buffer displaying possible completions for the key
+     sequence `C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS'.  You do not have to type the key
+     sequence again, i.e., `C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS' is also used for the
+     next input.
+
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS <button1>'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS <button2>'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS <button3>'
+     Use the normal bindings of `<button1>',  `<button2>' or
+     `<button3>', respectively (*note Input Method Grid::.).  The key
+     sequence is not used for the next input.
+
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS M-<prior>'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS M-<next>'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS M-<home>'
+`C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS M-<end>'
+     Execute the commands `scroll-other-window-down',
+     `scroll-other-window', `beginning-of-buffer-other-window' or
+     `end-of-buffer-other-window', respectively.  You do not have to
+     type the key sequence again, i.e., `C-= ZERO-OR-MORE-KEYS' is also
+     used for the next input.
+
+`x-symbol-temp-help'
+     Inserting an X-Symbol character restores the window configuration
+     current before the invocation of the Grid.
+
+`x-symbol-map-default-keys-alist'
+     Defines the bindings mentioned above.
+
+   Input method Keyboard also works if X-Symbol mode is not enabled.  It
+uses the common interpretation of prefix arguments for X-Symbol insert
+commands, see *Note Introducing Input Methods::.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Input Method Context,  Next: Input Method Electric,  Prev: Input Method Keyboard,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Input Method Context: Replace Char Sequence
+===========================================
+
+   The idea of the input method "Context" is to replace a sequence of
+characters by a character which looks similar to the whole sequence.  If
+the sequence consists only of Ascii characters, it is also used for the
+key bindings, see *Note Input Method Keyboard::.
+
+   There will be some info in the echo area that the character sequence
+before point can be replace via input method Context.  The following
+commands are provided:
+
+`M-x x-symbol-modify-key'
+`C-,'
+`C-= <left>'
+`C-= <right>'
+     If character before point is an X-Symbol character, "modify" it to
+     an alternative character (if you do it often enough, you are back
+     at your first character).  Otherwise replace sequence of
+     characters by a character which looks similar to the whole
+     sequence.
+
+`M-x x-symbol-rotate-key'
+`C-.'
+`C-= <up>'
+`C-= <down>'
+     If character before point is an X-Symbol character, "rotate" its
+     "direction" (or change uppercase/lowercase).
+
+   Both commands can also be used to resolve a character alias before
+point, see *Note Char Aliases::.  If the region is active, restrict
+replacement to use that region since the input method Context only
+considers the longest sequence of characters with a replacement.
+
+   Input method Context can be customized by changing the following
+variables:
+
+`x-symbol-rotate-prefix-alist'
+     If you provide a prefix argument to command `x-symbol-rotate-key',
+     you can specify the direction you want to have: it is according to
+     numerical keypads, e.g., with prefix argument `7' you specify the
+     direction "north-west".
+
+`x-symbol-rotate-suffix-char'
+     Command `x-symbol-rotate-key' is also used to "Greekify" the
+     previous character: typing `a C-.' is shorter than `a # C-,'.
+
+`x-symbol-context-ignore'
+     Constrains whether a context/charsym can be replaced.  No
+     constraints by default.
+
+`x-symbol-context-init-ignore'
+     Contexts starting with a space cannot be replaced.  This variable
+     must be set before X-Symbol has been initialized.

+
+Input Method Electric: Automatic Context
+========================================
+
+   The idea of input method "Electric" is to have the input method
+Context (*note Input Method Context::.) do its replacement
+automatically.  X-Symbol automatically replaces some character
+sequences of input method Context by the X-Symbol character as soon as
+the last character in the sequence of the sequence has been pressed.
+
+   Input method Electric has nothing to do with the display of
+super-/subscripts (*note Super and Subscripts::.).
+
+   You might want to press `C-/' or `C-x u' to undo the replacement.
+Input method Electric requires X-Symbol mode to be enabled, it can be
+disabled (and re-enabled) by setting the following variable:
+
+`x-symbol-electric-input'
+     A boolean which can also be changed via the X-Symbol menu.
+
+   To make input method Electric useful and not annoying, several
+conditions must be met for X-Symbol to do the auto-replacement:
+
+   * Not all contexts will be replaced automatically.  E.g., while input
+     method Context allows both pre- and postfixes for accented
+     characters, `:' and `'' only act as prefixes, and ``' and `~' only
+     as postfixes for input method Electric, since these are the
+     combinations where those characters are quite likely not used
+     literally.
+
+   * The character must be valid in the current token language, see
+     *Note Introducing Input Methods::.
+
+   * All characters of the context have been typed without any other
+     command in between, e.g., `- >' inserts `arrowright', "- <left>
+     <right> > simply inserts `->'.
+
+   * No prefix argument has been used for any character in the context.
+
+   * The electric context must not be a suffix of a longer valid
+     context for another character.  E.g., `' ' o' does not insert
+     `'`oacute'' because `''o' is the context for `ohungarumlaut'
+     (which cannot be inserted by input method Electric).
+
+   * It should be "allowed" to change the context to the character via
+     input method Context.
+
+   * Individual contexts/charsyms can be disabled by setting the
+     following variables:
+
+    `x-symbol-electric-ignore'
+          The context should neither be `'s' (this would be annoying
+          when writing English), nor include a space.  If you want to
+          disable input method Electric for all accented characters, use
+
+               (setq x-symbol-electric-ignore
+                     "[ \t]\\|[A-Za-z][~`]\\|[:'][A-Za-z]")
+
+    `x-symbol-LANG-electric-ignore'
+          Individual contexts/charsyms can be disabled for each token
+          language LANG.

+
+Input Method Quail: a Mule Input Method
+=======================================
+
+   Another way to insert a characters is by using the Emacs/Mule
+multilingual text input method "x-symbol" (*note Input Methods:
+(xemacs)Input Methods.)..
+
+   Again, the Ascii sequence used there is the same as the sequence
+which is replaced by input method Context, see *Note Input Method
+Context::.  A one-letter key sequence is extended by <;>.
+
+   If input method Quail is selected for a buffer, input method Electric
+(*note Input Method Electric::.) is disabled in that buffer.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Customizing Input Method,  Prev: Input Method Quail,  Up: Input Methods
+
+Customizing Input Methods
+=========================
+
+   You may safely define key bindings not using the `x-symbol-map'
+(i.e., starting with `C-=').  E.g., for `alpha' on `A-a' , use
+
+     (global-set-key [(alt a)] 'x-symbol-INSERT-alpha)
+
+   Please note that the command `x-symbol-INSERT-alpha' is not defined
+before the main file (`x-symbol') in the package has been loaded (if
+you really need it, function `autoload' is your friend).
+
+   Other possibilities to customize the input methods are by setting the
+following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-header-groups-alist'
+     Defines the groups whose characters appear after that header in
+     the Grid and in submenus with that header.  *Note Char Group::.
+     Extra variables exists for the language dependent Grid and Menu.
+
+`x-symbol-group-input-alist'
+`x-symbol-user-table'
+     These are variables which are used to compute the input
+     definitions.  While this kind of indirection might seem
+     complicated to you (it is), it actually ensures consistency across
+     all input methods.  *Note Defining Input Methods::.
+
+     For example., if you prefer charsym `epsilon1' over `epsilon'
+     (influences input method , you might want to use:
+
+          (setq x-symbol-user-table
+                '((epsilon1 t (greek1 "e" nil "epsilon") nil -3000)))
+
+`x-symbol-list-mode-hook'
+     Additional functions to execute after setting up the Grid and Key
+     Completions buffer.
+
+`x-symbol-after-init-input-hook'
+     You can change the input methods directly by functions in these
+     hooks.

+Features of Package X-Symbol
+****************************
+
+   Package X-Symbol not only provides input methods for X-Symbol
+characters, it also provides more features which support an easy and
+comfortable preparation of documents.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Super and Subscripts::        Use special fonts for super-/subscripts.
+* Images::                      Images after image insertion commands.
+* Info::                        Display information in echo area.
+* Ascii Representation::        Derive label from a buffer contents.
+* Package Information::         Invoke info system, use WWW browser.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Super and Subscripts,  Next: Images,  Prev: Features,  Up: Features
+
+Super- and Subscripts
+=====================
+
+   Package X-Symbol displays the characters inside super-/subscript
+commands in a way to make them look like super-/subscripts.  It also
+marks the super-/subscript command itself as invisible, so you don't see
+it on the screen.  For example, the three characters `a^2' in the
+buffer are *displayed* as an `a' and a raised, smaller `2'--the `^' is
+still in the buffer.
+
+   Therefore, the display of super- and subscripts has nothing to do
+with Input Method Electric (*note Input Method Electric::.).
+
+   Do not confuse the special Latin characters `twosuperior',
+`threesuperior', `ordfeminine' and `masculine' with the characters `2',
+`3', `a' and `o' when displayed as superscripts.  You might notice that
+the characters look a bit different, but to help you seeing the
+difference, X-Symbol will display an info in the echo area (*note
+Info::.) for the special Latin characters when point is before or after
+the character in question.
+
+   X-Symbol only displays the innermost super- and subscripts, since we
+would need even more additional fonts otherwise.  It is also restricted
+to display single-line super- and subscripts.
+
+   The display of super- and subscripts requires `font-lock' to be
+enabled (*note Role of font-lock::.).
+
+   Super- and subscripts are by default enabled if the they are defined
+for the token language and it would be appropriate to turn on X-Symbol
+automatically for the current buffer (*note Minor Mode::.).  They can be
+disabled (and re-enabled) by setting the following buffer-local
+variable:
+
+`x-symbol-subscripts'
+     A boolean which can also be changed via the X-Symbol menu.
+
+   As mentioned before, X-Symbol marks the super-/subscript command
+itself as invisible, except when point is directly before, inside or
+directly after this command.  During the time where this this is the
+case, X-Symbol makes the super-/subscript command reappear and
+highlights it with pink.  This feature can be disabled (and re-enabled)
+by setting the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-reveal-invisible'
+     A boolean which can also be changed via the X-Symbol menu.
+
+`x-symbol-revealed-face'
+     The face used for the super-/subscript command when revealed.
+
+`x-symbol-idle-delay'
+     Time in seconds of idle time before revealing invisible characters.
+
+   Super-/subscript commands are `^'/`_' (*note TeX Macro::.) and
+`<sup>'/`<sub>' (*note SGML Entity::.):
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-font-lock-keywords'
+     The super-/subscript `font-lock' keywords for each token language
+     LANG.

+
+Images at the end of Image Insertion Commands
+=============================================
+
+   Package X-Symbol can display "images" at the end of image insertion
+commands.  They show thumbnails (scaled-down version of the image) for
+the included image files (using `convert', *note Installing Image
+Converter::.).  Using the middle mouse button invokes the image editor
+for the image under the mouse pointer.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Image Display::               When to display images.
+* Image Conversion::            Producing a scaled-down image.
+* Image Caching::               Speeding up the image processing.
+* Special Images::              Signaling specific situations.
+* Image Editor::                Editing the original image file.

+
+Display of Images
+-----------------
+
+   The display of images is by default enabled if the image commands are
+defined for the token language and it would be appropriate to turn on
+X-Symbol automatically for the current buffer (*note Minor Mode::.).  It
+can be disabled (and re-enabled) by setting the following buffer-local
+variable:
+
+`x-symbol-image'
+     A boolean which can also be changed via the X-Symbol menu.
+
+   Image commands are `\includegraphics' and others (*note TeX
+Macro::.), and `<img>' (*note SGML Entity::.):
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-image-keywords'
+     The keywords (image commands & arguments) for each token language
+     LANG.
+
+   File names in the image commands must be interpreted correctly.  They
+can be:
+
+   - "absolute", start with `/' or `~',
+
+   - "explicitly relative", start with `./' or `../',
+
+   - "implicitly relative", assumed otherwise, e.g., `image.eps', or
+
+   - special, like having some special URL prefix like `http:' or
+     `ftp:'.
+
+   Relative file names can be relative to some "master directory"
+(usually the current directory of the file) or to directories in some
+"search path" (only used with token language `tex'):
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-master-directory'
+     The master directory for each token language LANG.
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-image-searchpath'
+     The image search path for each token language LANG.  Defaults to
+     the current directory.
+
+`x-symbol-image-searchpath-follow-symlink'
+     Directories in the search path ending with `//' (double slash) are
+     recursive: all subdirectories not starting with a dot are also
+     included in the search path.  If this variable has value `nil' (the
+     default), subdirectories which are symbolic links are not included.
+
+   For details, see the section of the individual token languages
+(*note Supported Languages::.).

+
+Image Conversion
+----------------
+
+   The file mentioned inside the image insertion command is not used
+directly to display the image after the command.  The image might be too
+big, it might use too many colors or the image format might not be
+supported by Emacs.  Therefore, it is converted to an "image cache
+file", see *Note Image Caching::.
+
+`x-symbol-image-max-width'
+     The image is not wider than 120 points.
+
+`x-symbol-image-max-height'
+     The image is not higher than 80 points.
+
+`x-symbol-image-convert-colormap'
+     Colormap used in function `x-symbol-image-convert-colormap' below.
+     A colormap is a normal image whose colors are the only ones used
+     for producing other images.  The distribution of package X-Symbol
+     includes two colormaps: `etc/colormap138.xpm' and
+     `etc/colormap66.xpm'.
+
+`x-symbol-image-colormap-allocation'
+     Package X-Symbol allocates the colors of the colormap at start-up
+     and prevents them to be de-allocated.
+
+`x-symbol-image-converter'
+     Program `convert' from ImageMagick is used to convert the images
+     (*note Installing Image Converter::.).  Set this variable to `nil',
+     if you don't want to convert images.
+
+     The following variables controls the invocation of the program
+     `convert' from ImageMagick:
+
+    `x-symbol-image-convert-program'
+          The name of the program `convert', it is
+          `C:\\ImageMagick\\convert' when running on Windows and
+          `convert' otherwise.
+
+    `x-symbol-image-convert-file-alist'
+          Program `convert' needs to be told that `FILE.pstex' is a
+          Postscript file.
+
+     The following functions are possible values in
+     `x-symbol-image-converter':
+
+    `x-symbol-image-start-convert-mono'
+          Produces monochrome images.  Used if your device has less
+          than 32 colors.
+
+    `x-symbol-image-start-convert-truecolor'
+          Produce images with original colors.  Used if your device has
+          more than 767 colors.
+
+    `x-symbol-image-start-convert-color'
+          Produce images with maximal four colors (just four because
+          different images might use a different sets of colors).  Used
+          otherwise without a colormap.
+
+    `x-symbol-image-start-convert-colormap'
+          Produce image with colors from the colormap.  Used otherwise
+          with a colormap.
+
+         `x-symbol-image-convert-mono-regexp'
+               Function `x-symbol-image-start-convert-colormap' just
+               produces monochrome images for temporary image cache
+               files (*note Image Caching::.) since `convert' is slower
+               when using a colormap.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Image Caching,  Next: Special Images,  Prev: Image Conversion,  Up: Images
+
+Image Caching
+-------------
+
+   Editing would be extremely slow, if an image cache file would be
+produced every time an image insertion command has been recognized.
+Therefore, package X-Symbol uses the following techniques:
+
+   * It uses an asynchronous process to create the image cache file.
+     You can edit your file during the conversion.
+
+   * It uses a "file cache": image cache file can be kept for future
+     Emacs sessions.
+
+   * It uses a "memory cache": images from the most common file names
+     are cached in a buffer-local memory cache.  The cached is
+     initialized when parsing the whole buffer for image keywords.
+     Rescan the buffer if you want to display the the images of new
+     image files by using the following command:
+
+    `M-x x-symbol-image-parse-buffer'
+          Parse the buffer to recognize image insertion commands.
+          Usually, this is done automatically.
+
+   File and memory caching can be controlled by the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-image-update-cache'
+     The image cache is automatically updated if it does not exist yet
+     or if it is older than the corresponding image file.
+
+`x-symbol-image-cache-directories'
+     Cache files for images in your home directory are stored in
+     directory `~/.images/', e.g., image `~/d/img.eps', is cached in
+     `~/.images/d/img.png'.
+
+     Images outside your home directory are just temporarily cached, or
+     not displayed at all if they cannot be stored in the memory cache.
+
+     You could also specify that the cache files uses a relative
+     subdirectory, e.g., that `~/d/img.eps' is cached in
+     `~/d/.img/img.eps' or that the image is not displayed at all.
+
+`x-symbol-image-temp-name'
+     Temporary image files are stored in a temporary directory (`/tmp/')
+     having some unique name.  They are not supported on Emacs.
+
+`x-symbol-image-use-remote'
+     Package X-Symbol only displays images which can be stored in the
+     memory cache.  With value `t', it tries to find the image file
+     during editing (ignoring the search path for speed, though).
+     Editing lines with image files not in the memory cache would be
+     slow, since file accesses are necessary for every command.
+
+   The memory cache only stored image file from the current directory or
+some standard image directories like `figures/' (*note TeX Macro::.),
+or `images/' or `pictures/' (*note SGML Entity::.).  Otherwise, the
+image file is considered similar to remote files:
+
+`x-symbol-LANG-image-cached-dirs'
+     The directories with images which are stored in the memory cache.
+     Can be separately defined for each token language LANG.

+

+
+Special Images for Specific Situations
+--------------------------------------
+
+   If package X-Symbol cannot display images representing the included
+image files, it uses special images instead:
+
+   * "Remote:" An Escher knot is displayed if the file is remote or if
+     the image cannot be cached in the memory cache, see *Note Image
+     Caching::.
+
+   * "Junk": A recycle sign is displayed if there is no image converter
+     (*note Image Conversion::.), if it should not use a file cache or
+     if the file cache cannot be written.
+
+   * "Locked:" A terminal with a lock is displayed if the image cache
+     file cannot be read or written.
+
+   * "Design:" An ink pen is displayed if the image file does not exist.
+
+   * "Create:" An hour glass is displayed used during the creation of
+     the image cache file, an old image cache is used instead if it
+     exists.
+
+   * "Broken:" A tombstone is displayed if the creation of the image
+     cache file has failed.
+
+   To customize the glyphs for the special images, use:
+
+`x-symbol-image-data-directory'
+     Directory of files for the special images.
+
+`x-symbol-image-special-glyphs'
+     File names of special images and their image format.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Image Editor,  Prev: Special Images,  Up: Images
+
+Image Editor
+------------
+
+   If you move the mouse pointer to an image insertion command or its
+image, it is highlighted.
+
+`<button2>'
+     Start image editor for highlighted image.  If the image is
+     searched in the searchpath (*note Image Caching::.), edit first
+     existing image file.  If no image exists, open a new file in the
+     first directory of the searchpath.
+
+`<button3>'
+     Pop up the "image highlight menu".  You can rescan the buffer for
+     image insertion commands (*note Image Display::.).
+
+     It also displays all directories in the searchpath if the file
+     name is implicitly relative, or the current directory otherwise.
+     Selecting a directory starts the image editor in that directory
+     (relatively to that directory if the file name has a directory
+     part).
+
+`M-x x-symbol-image-editor'
+     Start image editor.  Asks for the image file.
+
+   You can control which editor to use:
+
+`x-symbol-image-editor-alist'
+     Normally, program `display' is used to edit the highlighted image
+     file.  But for image names `FILE.eps', `FILE.ps' or `FILE.pstex',
+     program `xfig' is invoked with `FILE.fig'.  It also uses a scale
+     method, e.g., with `img.80.eps', we edit `img.fig' (which should
+     be exported with scale=80%).
+
+`x-symbol-image-scale-method'
+     If a scale method is used for a file name and the file name without
+     extension ends with a dot and two digits, these three characters
+     are removed from the file name.
+
+`x-symbol-image-current-marker'
+     Directories with an existing image for the specified file name are
+     marked with an `*'.  The first of these represents the file which
+     is used when pressing `<button2>'.

+
+Info in Echo Area
+=================
+
+   The echo area (*note Echo Area: (xemacs)Echo Area.) is used by
+X-Symbol to give some information about the character around point, and
+whether there is a context before point which can be replaced by input
+method Context (*note Input Method Context::.).
+
+   It will be controlled by the following variables (also to be found in
+the menu):
+
+`x-symbol-character-info'
+     A three-value variable which controls whether to display some info
+     for the character after or around point.  The info for the
+     character after point includes the character itself and the
+     following infos:
+
+        - the token of the current language, eventually colored
+          according to some coloring scheme (*note Char Group::.),
+
+        - infos using the token classes (*note Char Group::.), which
+          could inform users to include a specific LaTeX package when
+          they want to use that character in the document,
+
+        - the codings in which the characters is considered to be a
+          8bit character (*note File Coding::.), and
+
+        - the key bindings (*note Input Method Keyboard::.).
+
+`x-symbol-context-info'
+     If X-Symbol mode is on and some conditions are met, display some
+     info for the character which would replace the context before
+     point when pressing `C-,' (*note Input Method Context::.).  It can
+     be controlled by the following variables:
+
+    `x-symbol-context-info-ignore'
+          The default value `x-symbol-default-context-info-ignore'
+          makes the following variables control whether to display the
+          context info.
+
+    `x-symbol-context-info-threshold'
+          The context does not consist of a single character.
+
+    `x-symbol-context-info-ignore-regexp'
+          The context does not solely consist of letters.
+
+    `x-symbol-context-info-ignore-groups'
+          The context is not replaced by an accented character, see
+          *Note Char Group::.
+
+`x-symbol-idle-delay'
+     Time in seconds of idle time before showing the info.

+Ascii Representation of Strings
+===============================
+
+   If you want to derive labels from a buffer contents (provided e.g.,
+by Emacs packages `reftex' or `bibtex'), you need a Ascii
+representation of strings containing X-Symbol characters.  This is
+provided by the following function:
+

+                       (udiaeresis . "ue") (Udiaeresis . "Ue")))
+
+    `x-symbol-charsym-ascii-groups'
+          By default, "Ascii"fying accented characters means removing

+          representation, e.g, `sigma1' has the Ascii representation
+          `sigma'.

+
+Pseudo Token Language "x-symbol charsym"
+========================================
+
+   If no (or an invalid) token language is set for a buffer, the info in
+the echo area (*note Info::.) for a X-Symbol Character in the buffer (if
+it exists) uses the name of its "charsym".  In this manual, we actually
+refer to X-Symbol characters by their charsym name, e.g., `alpha'.
+
+   A charsym is a symbol which is used internally to represent a
+X-Symbol character.  Charsyms are used instead characters in all user
+variables of package X-Symbol.
+
+   The highlight menu of the Grid (*note Input Method Grid::.) also
+offers to insert a charsym name.  Charsyms can also be used for input
+method Read Token, see *Note Input Method Read Token::.
+
+   You cannot use this pseudo language to turn on the X-Symbol minor
+mode (*note Minor Mode::.), you cannot decode charsyms to their
+characters, and you cannot encode characters to charsyms.

+Token Language "TeX macro" (`tex')
+==================================
+
+   For buffers using the major mode `latex-mode', `tex-mode' or
+`plain-tex-mode', we use token language "TeX macro" (`tex').  This
+language provides the display of super-/subscripts and images.  If the
+buffer visits a file with extension `.tex', X-Symbol mode is
+automatically turned on.

+
+Basics of Language "TeX macro"
+------------------------------
+
+   The standard behavior can be controlled by the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-tex-modes'
+`x-symbol-tex-auto-style'
+     The variables known from *Note Minor Mode::.  If the buffer visits
+     a file with extension `.tex', super-/subscripts and images are
+     displayed, otherwise unique decoding (*note Unique Decoding::.)
+     will be used.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-auto-coding-alist'
+     Used there to automatically deduce the specific encoding of the
+     file (*note File Coding::.) if the file visited by the buffer has
+     the extension `.tex'.  It searches for one of the following two
+     strings in the current buffer, including the comment:
+
+          \usepackage[ENCODING]{inputenc}
+          %& -translation-file=iENC
+
+     where ENCODING should be one of `latin1', `latin2', `latin3',
+     `latin5', or `latin9', and ENC should be one of `l1' or `l2'.
+     8bit characters are not encoded if the file if the search was
+     successful (*note Controlling 8bit Coding::.).
+
+`x-symbol-tex-coding-master'
+     If one of the above strings cannot be found in the current buffer,
+     and the current buffer has a buffer-local string value of
+     `TeX-master', also search in the file denoted by that value for
+     the strings.  (Buffer-local variables will not be inherited.)
+
+   The input methods and the character info in the echo area are
+controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-tex-header-groups-alist'
+     We use the standard Grid and Menu headers.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-extra-menu-items'
+     There is an extra menu item to remove the braces around text-mode
+     letters and other text-mode symbols.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-electric-ignore'
+`x-symbol-tex-electric-ignore-regexp'
+     Input method Electric (*note Input Method Electric::.) is disabled
+     if the character is not of the correct TeX mode, i.e., it only
+     produces a math-mode character in a math area and a text-mode
+     character in a text area (this test requires package `texmathp',
+     *Note LaTeX Packages::).  Postfix tilde is not electric, because
+     `~' produces a space in TeX.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-token-suppress-space'
+     Input method Token (*note Input Method Token::.) only converts a
+     token ending with a control word like `\i', if the character
+     following the token is no letter.  If that token is a text-mode
+     token and a <SPC> has been entered without a prefix argument, the
+     <SPC> will only perform the replacement, it will not insert a
+     space, i.e., it will act like `C-u 0 <SPC>'.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-class-alist'
+`x-symbol-tex-class-face-alist'
+     Various token classes (*note Char Group::.) are defined.  They are
+     used to give some info (*note Info::.) about the characters
+     spacing behavior, which LaTeX packages are necessary to use the
+     character (*note TeX Macro Symbols::.), and about the conversion
+     (*note TeX Macro Conversion::.).  X-Symbol uses blue for text-mode
+     only and purple for math-mode only characters in the Grid (*note
+     Input Method Grid::. and the character info.

+
+Super-/Subscripts and Images in LaTeX
+-------------------------------------
+
+   The display of super- and subscripts (*note Super and Subscripts::.)
+is controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-tex-font-lock-limit-regexp'
+     The superscript command `^' and the subscript command `_' is
+     recognized.  The argument can be provided with and without braces.
+     The argument should not span more than one line and should not
+     contain a super-/subscript command.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-font-lock-allowed-faces'
+     The characters `^' and `_' are not always commands (*note TeX
+     Macro Problems::.), e.g., in the argument of `\ref'.  X-Symbol uses
+     the usual syntax highlighting keywords to decide whether to
+     recognize these characters as super-/subscript commands: they are
+     commands if they are not highlighted or highlighted with the usual
+     math-mode faces.
+
+     This might lead to problems: *Note FAQ No Subscripts::, *Note FAQ
+     Stupid Subscripts::.  Using `texmathp' (*note LaTeX Packages::.)
+     has even more problems:
+
+        - The syntax highlighting (which is used for super-/subscripts)
+          would be much too slow.
+
+        - With own LaTeX environments, you would need to customize
+          `texmathp'.
+
+        - It is actually wrong: whether `^' and `_' are
+          super-/subscripts commands does not depend on whether we are
+          in TeX's math mode, it depends on its catcodes (which are
+          changed by commands like `\ref').
+
+   The display of images (*note Images::.) is controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-tex-image-keywords'
+     The following commands are recognized.  Extension EXT stands for
+     `eps' (which is the default extension for both versions of
+     `\includegraphics' if the extension is omitted there), `ps',
+     `gif', `png', `jpeg', `jpg', or `pdf'.  Options OPTIONS can be
+     omitted with their surrounding brackets or preceding comma,
+     respectively.
+
+          \input{FILE.pstex_t}
+          \includegraphics[OPTIONS][OPTIONS]{FILE.EXT}
+          \includegraphics*[OPTIONS][OPTIONS]{FILE.EXT}
+          \epsfig{file=FILE.EXT,OPTIONS}
+          \psfig{file=FILE.EXT,OPTIONS}
+          \epsfbox[OPTIONS]{FILE.EXT}
+          \epsffile[OPTIONS]{FILE.EXT}
+
+`x-symbol-tex-master-directory'
+     Relative file names (*note Image Display::., explicitly or
+     implicitly) are relative to the directory part of variable
+     `TeX-master' if it is buffer-local and a string.  Otherwise, they
+     are relative to the directory of the current file.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-image-searchpath'
+     Files with implicitly relative names are meant to be searched in a
+     search path.  It defaults to the list of directories specified by
+     the environment variable `TEXPICTS' or `TEXINPUTS' (*note TeX
+     environment variables: (kpathsea)TeX environment variables.),
+     extended by `./' if necessary.
+
+     Each directory in this list is used to expand the file name.  The
+     first expansion naming a readable file is used.  Relative
+     directories in this list are expanded in the master directory
+     mentioned above.
+
+     This mimics the standard behavior of TeX, omitting the "built-in"
+     directories of the search path (*note Path sources: (kpathsea)Path
+     sources.).
+
+`x-symbol-tex-image-cached-dirs'
+     The file name in the image command should not have a directory
+     part or the directory part should be `figures/' if the image
+     should be cached in the memory cache.

+
+Problems with TeX Macros
+------------------------
+
+   Like with other token languages, the conversion between characters
+and TeX macros induce the problem that we have two conflicting
+requirements: we would like X-Symbol not to change the file when
+visiting and saving a file, and we would like X-Symbol to use characters
+for all corresponding macros.  *Note Unique Decoding::.
+
+   The additional problem with TeX macros is that there is no fixed and
+simple definition of TeX macros, and many users have their personal TeX
+style, while many users are probably not aware that the style also
+influences TeX's typesetting:
+
+   * The tokens in TeX are not ended by a dedicated character (like
+     SGML entities are ended by `;').  Instead, we need the next char
+     to decide whether a macro ends, which would be no problem if TeX
+     would have a character which has no meaning except separating
+     tokens (like space in most programming languages).  Unfortunately,
+     this is not the case: after an "control word" (an all-letter
+     macro), a space has no meaning, but it does produce a space in the
+     output after characters and other macros, except in math mode.
+
+     During decoding, a text-mode control word has to be replaced
+     either with its trailing spaces or not be replaced at all.  Since
+     the number of spaces can vary and X-Symbol does not remember the
+     original TeX sequence of a character, X-Symbol would change the
+     file if it would use characters for all sequences.
+
+   * During encoding, a space after a character in the buffer must
+     produce a space in the document output, since users normally do
+     not care whether the character is represented by a control word or
+     not.  Let us assume that we (Bavarians) want to produce the output
+     `Mass Bier'.  In the info file, you will probably not see any 8bit
+     characters (the sharp `s' is shown as `ss').
+
+        - Many people would use `Ma\ss\ Bier'.  This is (almost ever)
+          fine in text mode, but a `\ ' in math mode is not ignored
+          (whereas the spaces after characters are).  If we have text-
+          and math-mode control word, we have a problem, since
+          math-mode detection cannot work properly without TeX
+          processing.
+
+        - Many people would use `Ma\ss{} Bier'.  This has less problems
+          and is therefore used by X-Symbol.  The `{}' at the end of
+          the control word is not used if the character is not followed
+          by a space, e.g., to produce `Strasse', we use `Stra\ss e'.
+          Consequently, `Ma\ss\ Bier' in the file would be decoded to
+          `Mass\ Bier', which would be encoded to the original sequence
+          in the file.
+
+        - Some people would always use `{}' after a text-mode control
+          word, even it is not followed by a space, like `Stra\ss{}e'.
+          This is wrong, since it breaks ligatures and kerns.  For
+          example, compare the output of `\L V' with `\L{}V' using `T1'
+          font encoding.
+
+        - Up to Version 4.1, X-Symbol surrounded a text-mode control
+          word with braces, like `Stra{\ss}e'.  This was probably even
+          worse than always adding `{}' at the end of the control word.
+          It was used, because it is required by BibTeX (*note BibTeX
+          Macro::.).  Unfortunately, BibTeX sends this bad sequence
+          directly to LaTeX, but this has nothing to do with X-Symbol.
+
+   * The accented characters are not represented by one tokens in TeX.
+     Most people use `\"a' to produce an `"a', while some use `\"{a}'.
+     X-Symbol uses the former, it does not even decode the latter
+     automatically.  Up to Version 4.1, X-Symbol used `{\"a}', having
+     the same problems as using `Stra{\ss}e'.
+
+   * Around a dozen characters can be produced by more than one TeX
+     macro, like `\neq' and `\ne'.  Here, X-Symbol decodes both forms,
+     because it is probably a bad idea to redefine standard TeX macros.
+     This will not be done with in style files (*note Unique
+     Decoding::.).
+
+   * In TeX, you can change the lexer on the fly, i.e., in a strict
+     sense, any conversion is unsafe without TeX processing.  Since the
+     most likely change is to change the catcode of the character `@'
+     to a letter (used in LaTeX's style files), this character is
+     considered a letter by X-Symbol.  This means that although both
+     `\ss @' and `\ss@' usually produce the same output, only the first
+     is decoded to `ss@'.
+
+   * In TeX, the definitions of macros can also change on the fly i.e.,
+     in a strict sense, any conversion is unsafe without TeX processing.
+     X-Symbol assumes that you do not do something like that except as
+     done by the standard LaTeX `\verb' command, and the `verbatim' and
+     `tabbing' environments.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: TeX Macro Conversion,  Next: TeX Macro Symbols,  Prev: TeX Macro Problems,  Up: TeX Macro
+
+The Conversion of TeX Macros
+----------------------------
+
+   The TeX macros for Latin characters are according to the LaTeX
+package `inputenc.sty', v0.97+.  Package X-Symbol uses U00B5 for
+`\mathmicro', not for `\mu', though!  *Note Wishlist LaTeX::.
+
+   It is assumed that you do not redefine standard TeX macros like
+`\ne' (*note TeX Macro Conversion::.), if you do so, you should better
+use unique decoding (*note Unique Decoding::.).
+
+   The encoding of characters to TeX macros works as follows:
+
+   * If the character is preceded by an odd number of backslashes,
+     insert a space before the character.
+
+   * Accented characters are encoded without braces, e.g., we encode
+     `c,' to `\c c'.  Accents are encoded with braces, e.g., we use
+     `\c{ }' and `\u{}'.
+
+   Additionally, the encoding of characters to TeX macros which are
+"control words" (all-letter macros), or whose TeX representation ends
+with a control word (like `\'\i') works as follows:
+
+   * If the character is followed by a letter, replace the character by
+     the macro and insert a space.
+
+   * If the macro is a text-mode macro and followed by one or more
+     blanks, replace the character and insert `{}'.
+
+   * Otherwise, just replace the character.
+
+   The decoding of TeX macros which are control words to characters
+works as follows:
+
+   * If the macro is a text-mode macro and followed by `{}' which is
+     followed by a blank, replace the macro and delete the braces.
+
+   * If the macro is a text-mode macro and followed by one are more
+     blanks, we have the following rule:
+
+        - If we have exactly one blank, the blank is a space, and it is
+          not followed by a `%' (comment character), replace the macro
+          by the corresponding character and delete the space.  (The
+          character following the space must be a letter with unique
+          decoding, *Note Unique Decoding::.)
+
+        - Otherwise, do *not decode* the macro!
+
+   * Otherwise, just replace the macro.
+
+   To clarify, "letter" means `A'-`Z', `a'-`z', or `@', "blank" means a
+space, newline or the end of the buffer (therefore, the last character
+in the buffer is always followed by a blank).
+
+   There are three control words which are both text-mode and math mode
+macros: `\ldots', `\vdots', and (by accident) `\angle'.  They are all
+treated like math-mode characters, but their minibuffer info (*note
+Info::.) includes `gobbles space' (spaces in the buffer after the
+character have no impact on the document),
+
+   Additionally, the following commands and environments are processed
+during decoding (but we are just looking for strings, i.e., they are
+also processed in comments):
+
+`x-symbol-tex-verb-delimiter-regexp'
+     If the command `\verb' is found, its argument is not decoded if it
+     is delimited by one of the following characters: `-', `!', `#',
+     `$', `&', `*', `+', `/', `=', `?', `^', `|', or `!'.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-env-verbatim-regexp'
+     The contents of the `verbatim' environment is not decoded.  To
+     produce accented characters inside this environment, use the LaTeX
+     package `inputenc.sty'.
+
+`x-symbol-tex-env-tabbing-regexp'
+     Inside a `tabbing' environment, the macro sequences starting with
+     `\`', `\'', `\=' and `\-' are not decoded.  It is probably better
+     (with or without X-Symbol) to use the LaTeX package `inputenc.sty'
+     or to the `Tabbing' environment, to be found in the CTAN archives.
+
+   During encoding, these commands and environments are not respected,
+since it does not make any sense to have X-Symbol's private characters
+in the TeX file.
+
+   Final note: in the info file, you will probably not see any 8bit
+characters.
+
+   You might want change the conversion between characters and tokens in
+language `tex' by changing:
+
+`x-symbol-tex-user-table'
+     You can define you own tokens for X-Symbol characters.  E.g., if
+     you like to have the command `\sqrt' represented by a character
+     (shadowing the entry for `\surd'), add the following to your
+     `~/.emacs':
+
+          (setq x-symbol-tex-user-table '((radical (math special) "\\sqrt")))

+Extra Symbols of Language "TeX Macro"

+
+   This section describes what you should put into your private style
+file or your document if you want to use extra symbols, i.e., characters
+whose info in the echo area (*note Info::.) contains s.th. like
+`PACKAGE.sty' or `user'.  If you do not use the corresponding
+characters, you do not have to do anything, of course.

+   The TeX macros `\Box', `\Diamond', `\leadsto', `\Join', `\lhd',

+
+   The TeX macro `\mathmicro' for U00B5 can be defined by (*note

+Basics of Language "SGML entity"
+--------------------------------
+
+   The standard behavior can be controlled by the following variables:
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-modes'
+`x-symbol-sgml-auto-style'
+     The variables known from *Note Minor Mode::.  If the buffer uses a
+     HTML mode, super-/subscripts and images are displayed, otherwise
+     unique decoding (*note Unique Decoding::.) will be used.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-auto-coding-alist'
+     Used there to automatically deduce the specific encoding of the
+     file (*note File Coding::.).  It searches for the following string
+     in the current buffer, including the comment:
+
+          <meta http-equiv="content-type"
+                content="text/html; charset=ENCODING">
+
+     where ENCODING should be one of `iso-8859-1', `iso-8859-2',
+     `iso-8859-3', `iso-8859-9', or `iso-8859-15'.  8bit characters are
+     not encoded if the file if the search was successful (*note
+     Controlling 8bit Coding::.).
+
+   The input methods and the character info in the echo area are
+controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-header-groups-alist'
+     Defines the headers and their characters for the language specific
+     Grid and Menu.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-extra-menu-items'
+     There are no special entries in the X-Symbol menu.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-electric-ignore'
+     There is no additional constraint to the ones mentioned in *Note
+     Input Method Electric::.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-class-alist'
+`x-symbol-sgml-class-face-alist'
+     Token classes (*note Char Group::.) are only used to define a
+     coloring scheme.  X-Symbol uses dark orange or dark red for
+     non-Latin-1 characters in the Grid (*note Input Method Grid::. and
+     the character info (*note Info::.), dark red for characters
+     without defined entity names in HTML (*note SGML Entity
+     Conversion::.).

+
+Super-/Subscripts and Images in HTML
+------------------------------------
+
+   The display of super- and subscripts (*note Super and Subscripts::.)
+is controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-font-lock-regexp'
+`x-symbol-sgml-font-lock-limit-regexp'
+`x-symbol-sgml-font-lock-alist'
+`x-symbol-sgml-font-lock-contents-regexp'
+     The superscript command `<sup>'...`</sup>' and the subscript
+     command `<sub>'...`</sub>' is recognized.  The contents should
+     contain at least one character which is not a space or a
+     `nobreakspace'.
+
+   The display of images (*note Images::.) is controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-image-keywords'
+     The following commands are recognized.  Extension EXT stands for
+     `gif', `png', `jpeg' or `jpg'.
+
+          <img ... src="FILE.EXT" ...>
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-master-directory'
+`x-symbol-sgml-image-searchpath'
+     Relative file names (*note Image Display::.) are relative to the
+     directory of the current file.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-image-file-truename-alist'
+     The file name prefix `file:' is ignored.  For any other file name
+     which starts with letters and then a colon, e.g., with `http:' or
+     `C:\' (which is no URL anyway), the image insertion command will
+     be skipped.  By changing this variable, you could specify that the
+     prefix `http://www.fmi.uni-passau.de/~wedler/' corresponds to
+     `~/public_html/'.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-image-cached-dirs'
+     The file name in the image command should not have a directory
+     part or the directory part should be `images/' or `pictures/' if
+     the image should be cached in the memory cache.

+
+The Conversion of SGML Entities
+-------------------------------
+
+   Most character entities of HTML-4.0 are supported, except the
+following: uppercase Greek which look like uppercase Latin,
+"markup-significant and internationalization" characters, and some
+quotes.  See `http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/sgml/entities.html'.
+
+   By default, we encode to entity references like `&amp;', and decode
+from both entity references and character references like `&#38;'.  For
+Latin-N characters without defined entity names in HTML (e.g.
+`scedilla'), we can only use character references.
+
+   Do not expect Netscape before v6 to display non-Latin-1 characters
+correctly (this might work by specifying the charset UTF-8 and using
+character references).
+
+   You might want change the conversion between characters and tokens in
+language `sgml' by changing:
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-token-list'
+     A symbol, which defines whether to use entity references, character
+     references, or entity references for Latin-1 characters and
+     character references for others.
+
+`x-symbol-sgml-user-table'
+     It is probably not a good idea to change the defined tokens
+     (except via the variable above), but you might want to add some
+     definitions:
+
+          (setq x-symbol-sgml-user-table '((circ () 999 "&bcomp;")))

+
+Token Language "BibTeX macro" (`bib')
+=====================================
+
+   For buffers using the major mode `bibtex-mode', we use token
+language "BibTeX macro" (`bib').  This language does not provide the
+display of super-/subscripts and images.  If the buffer visits a file,
+X-Symbol mode is automatically turned on.  It is controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-bib-modes'
+`x-symbol-bib-auto-style'
+     The variables known from *Note Minor Mode::.  There is no automatic
+     deduction of the file encoding, 8bit characters are usually
+     encoded, and there is usually no unique decoding.  *Note
+     Conversion::.
+
+   The major difference between this language and the token language
+`tex' is that the tokens for text-mode characters are most likely
+enclosed by braces.  This has some problems (*note TeX Macro
+Problems::.), but is required by the program `bibtex'.
+
+   The input methods and most features except super-/subscripts and
+images work like in token language `tex' (*note TeX Macro::.):
+
+`x-symbol-bib-header-groups-alist'
+`x-symbol-bib-electric-ignore'
+`x-symbol-bib-class-alist'
+`x-symbol-bib-class-face-alist'
+     Like in *Note TeX Macro Features::.
+
+`x-symbol-bib-extra-menu-items'
+     There are no special entries in the X-Symbol menu.
+
+   You might want change the conversion between characters and tokens in
+language `bib' by changing:
+
+`x-symbol-bib-user-table'
+`x-symbol-tex-user-table'
+     Use the former for `bib'-only changes, the latter also influences
+     the conversion with token language `tex'.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: TeXinfo Command,  Next: External Languages,  Prev: BibTeX Macro,  Up: Supported Languages
+
+Token Language "TeXinfo command" (`texi')
+=========================================
+
+   For buffers using the major mode `texinfo-mode', we use token
+language "TeXinfo command" (`texi').  This language does not provide
+the display of super-/subscripts and images.  If the buffer visits a
+file, X-Symbol mode is automatically turned on.  It is controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-texi-modes'
+`x-symbol-texi-auto-style'
+     The variables known from *Note Minor Mode::.  There is no automatic
+     deduction of the file encoding, 8bit characters are usually
+     encoded, and there is usually no unique decoding.  *Note
+     Conversion::.
+
+   With `x-symbol-8bits' having value `nil' (the default), it might
+still happen that the saved file contains 8bit characters, since token
+language `texi' does not define tokens for all characters in the Latin
+charsets supported by X-Symbol.  *Note Controlling 8bit Coding::.
+
+   With `x-symbol-unique' having value `nil' (the default), we have
+unique decoding anyway, since token language `texi' does only define
+one token per character, i.e., the value is not important if
+`x-symbol-8bits' is `nil'.  *Note Unique Decoding::.
+
+   The input methods and the character info in the echo area are
+controlled by:
+
+`x-symbol-texi-header-groups-alist'
+     Defines the headers and their characters for the language specific
+     Grid and Menu.
+
+`x-symbol-texi-extra-menu-items'
+     There are no special entries in the X-Symbol menu.
+
+`x-symbol-texi-electric-ignore'
+     There is no additional constraint to the ones mentioned in *Note
+     Input Method Electric::.
+
+`x-symbol-texi-class-alist'
+`x-symbol-texi-class-face-alist'
+     Only a few token classes (*note Char Group::.) are defined, the
+     most interesting induces the character info (*note Info::.) to
+     display `not as code' for `@minus{}' (`@minus{}' should not used
+     inside `@code' and `@example').  No coloring scheme is defined.
+
+   At least with `makeinfo-4.0', you do not get accented characters in
+the info file for the corresponding TeXinfo commands in the `.texi'
+file, the HTML output might contain illegal "SGML entities" like
+`&140;'.
+
+   At least with `texi2html-1.62', you see accented characters in the
+HTML output for the corresponding TeXinfo commands in the `.texi' file,
+but the output might also contain illegal "SGML entities" like `&140;'.
+
+   You might want change the conversion between characters and tokens in
+language `texi' by changing:
+
+`x-symbol-texi-user-table'
+     Extra entries for the conversion.

+
+Internal Representation of X-Symbol Characters
+==============================================
+
+   As mentioned in *Note Pseudo Language::, most functions do not
+operate on X-Symbol characters directly, they use "x-symbol charsyms".
+These charsyms have a symbol property `x-symbol-cstring' which points to
+a string, called "cstring", containing the X-Symbol character.
+
+   * Under Emacs and XEmacs/Mule, the string only contains the character
+     which is a normal Mule character created by `make-char'.
+
+   * Under XEmacs/no-Mule, the string only contains the 8bit character
+     if the X-Symbol character is a 8bit character according to
+     `x-symbol-default-coding' (*note Default Coding::.).  Otherwise,
+     the string contains of a "leading character" (with range `\200' to
+     `\237') and an "octet".  Package `font-lock' is used to display
+     them correctly as X-Symbol characters (*note FAQ Strange
+     Chars::.).  E.g., with `\251' is `copyright', we get
+
+          (get 'Idotaccent 'x-symbol-cstring)
+               => "\235\251"
+
+   If the character is also a 8bit character in some encoding (*note
+File Coding::.), the charsym also has the symbol property
+`x-symbol-file-cstrings' for the representation in the file and
+property `x-symbol-buffer-cstrings' to recognize character aliases
+(*note Char Aliases::.).  E.g., under XEmacs/no-Mule, with `\335' is
+`Yacute', `\251' is `copyright', we get
+
+     (get 'Idotaccent 'x-symbol-file-cstrings)
+          => (iso-8859-9 "\335" iso-8859-3 "\251")
+     (get 'Idotaccent 'x-symbol-buffer-cstrings)
+          => (iso-8859-9 "\234\335" iso-8859-3 "\235\251")
+
+   The values are plists (*note Property Lists: (lispref)Property
+Lists.) mapping the file coding to the strings in the file or the
+buffer, respectively.
+
+   After token languages have been initialized, the charsym also has the
+symbol properties `x-symbol-tokens' (*note Token Language::.) and
+`x-symbol-classes' (*note Char Group::.):
+
+     (get 'Idotaccent 'x-symbol-tokens)
+          => (sgml "&#304;" tex "{\\.I}")
+     (get 'Idotaccent 'x-symbol-classes)
+          => (sgml (non-l1) tex (text aletter))

+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Defining Charsets,  Next: Defining Input Methods,  Prev: Char Representation,  Up: X-Symbol Internals
+
+Defining X-Symbol Charsets
+==========================
+
+   An X-Symbol charset, called "cset" in the code and the docstrings,
+handles one font used by package X-Symbol.  Each cset must use the same
+char registry-encoding as the corresponding variables for the fonts
+(*note Installing Fonts Lisp::.).
+
+   You have to tell X-Symbol, how to define Mule charsets with Emacs or
+XEmacs/Mule and which leading character to use with XEmacs/no-Mule.  As
+an example, we use the definition of the Adobe symbol font.
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-xsymb0-cset
+       '((("adobe-fontspecific") ?\233 -3600)
+         (xsymb0-left  "X-Symbol characters 0, left"  94 ?:) .
+         (xsymb0-right "X-Symbol characters 0, right" 94 ?\;)))
+
+   Mule charsets (*note Charsets: (lispref)Charsets.)  may be used for
+94 or 96 characters (this example: 94, only charset with dimension 1
+can be defined with X-Symbol).  Thus, if your font provides more
+characters, you are likely to use both the left and the right half of
+the font to define two Mule charsets.  For both of them, you have to
+define a unique, free final character/byte of the standard ISO 2022
+escape sequence designating the charset (this example: `:' and `;').
+The remaining free (reserved by Emacs for users) are `>' and `?', the
+latter is already used in XEmacs.
+
+   For XEmacs/no-Mule, you have to define the leading character (this
+example: `\233').
+
+`x-symbol-latin1-cset'
+`x-symbol-latin2-cset'
+`x-symbol-latin3-cset'
+`x-symbol-latin5-cset'
+     Cset definitions only using the upper halves of the fonts where the
+     corresponding Mule charsets are known and which define characters
+     which are considered 8bit characters in the corresponding
+     encoding, see *Note File Coding::.
+
+`x-symbol-xsymb0-cset'
+`x-symbol-xsymb1-cset'
+     Cset definitions using both halves of the fonts where no
+     corresponding Mule charset are yet known.

+
+Defining Input Methods: Objectives
+----------------------------------
+
+   Input methods should be intuitive.  This requires consistency:
+
+   * Characters should be found under the same header in the Grid and
+     in the Menu.
+
+   * If one character can be modified or rotated to another character
+     (*note Input Method Context::.), both should stand near to each
+     other in the Grid.  E.g., since `arrowsouthwest' rotates to
+     `arrowdown', they stand next to each other.
+
+   * The key binding should be similar to the context of input method
+     Context.  If two characters are defined to have the same context,
+     they should have the same key prefix and the suffix should be a
+     number which increases with the "modify-to" behavior.  E.g.,
+     `reflexsubset' with key binding `C-= < _ 2' modifies to
+     `reflexsqsubset' with key binding `C-= < _ 3'.
+
+   * Consistent definition of "modify-to" and "rotate-to": if A can be
+     modified to B and rotated to C and C can be modified to D, B can be
+     rotated to D in most cases.
+
+   * It should be possible to load character definitions later on,
+     e.g., when new token languages get initialized.
+
+        - Existing key bindings should not be overwritten.  If some of
+          them have to change, it should be done in a uniform way
+          (solution: key suffix `1').
+
+        - Also, modifying or rotating a new character to/from old ones
+          should be possible without changing the input definitions of
+          the old characters.
+
+   Observation: It is impossible, especially with the possibility to
+load character definitions later on, to define the input methods
+directly, i.e., by something like `define-key'.  The solution is an
+indirect definitions with "character descriptions".
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Intro Char Descriptions,  Next: Char Descriptions,  Prev: Input Method Objectives,  Up: Defining Input Methods
+
+X-Symbol Character Descriptions: Example
+----------------------------------------
+
+   As an example for "character descriptions", look at the definition of
+`longarrowright' in `x-symbol-xsymb1-table' (`95' is the encoding in
+the font and not of interest here).  Some terms are defined in the next
+section:
+
+     (longarrowright 95
+      (arrow) (size big . arrowright) nil ("->" t "-->") (emdash))
+
+   With this definition, package X-Symbol automatically defines:
+
+   * Key bindings `C-= - - >' and `C-= - > 2', the latter has suffix 2,
+     because `C-= - >' is also "wanted" by `arrowright' which now has
+     the key binding `C-= - > 1' (the "score" of `longarrowright' is
+     higher, due to `size big').  *Note Input Method Keyboard::.
+
+   * `arrowright' modifies to `longarrowright', which modifies to
+     `arrowright'.  *Note Input Method Context::.
+
+   * `longarrowleft' rotates to `longarrowright', which rotates to
+     `longarrowboth' (which rotates to `longarrowleft').  (The "rotate
+     aspects" are inherited from `arrowright'.)  *Note Input Method
+     Context::.
+
+   * The following contexts can be modified to `longarrowright': `-->'
+     or `minus1' / `endash' / `macron' / `emdash' / `hyphen' and `->'
+     (since all define context `-') and `emdash' and `>' (since
+     `emdash' defines context `--').  `->' is used for `arrowright',
+     which has a lower score, see above.  *Note Input Method Context::.
+
+   * Input method Electric will change context `-->' (is tagged with
+     `t' in the definition) to `longarrowright', also `emdash' and `>'
+     (only theoretically, since input method Electric will produce
+     `emdash' only in TeX's text mode, and `longarrowright' only in
+     TeX's math mode).  *Note Input Method Electric::.
+
+   * The character will appear in the Grid under the header `Arrow'.
+     You will probably recognize that the placement is based on the
+     modify-to and rotate-to behavior above.  *Note Input Method Grid::.
+
+   * The character will appear in the Menu under one of the headers
+     `Arrow N'".  The submenus are sorted alphabetically.  *Note Input
+     Method Menu::.
+
+   Consider that this character would be missing in package X-Symbol and
+you want to define your own character (in your own font).  With the
+current scheme, the one line above is enough!  Have fun defining all the
+consequences directly instead....
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Char Descriptions,  Next: Example Char Descriptions,  Prev: Intro Char Descriptions,  Up: Defining Input Methods
+
+Defining Input Methods by Character Descriptions
+------------------------------------------------
+
+   Characters are defined with "character descriptions" which consist
+of different "aspects" and "contexts", which can also be inherited from
+a "parent" character.  All characters which are connected with parents,
+form a "component".  Aspects and contexts are used to determine the
+modify-to and rotate-to chain for characters, the contexts for input
+method Context and Electric, the key bindings, and the position in the
+Menu and the Grid.
+
+   If you want to check the component, scores, etc of a specific
+character, look at the symbol property (e.g., with `M-x
+hyper-apropos-get-doc') of the corresponding charsym, e.g.,
+`arrowright'.  See also the docstrings of `x-symbol-init-cset' and
+`x-symbol-init-input'.
+
+   Remember, all characters which are connected with parents, form a
+component.  "Contexts" are the contexts of input method Context (*note
+Input Method Context::.).  If a table entry of a charsym does not
+define its own contexts, they are the same as the contexts of the
+charsym in an earlier position in the modify chain (see below), or the
+contexts of the first charsym with defined contexts in the modify chain.
+The "modify context" of a charsym is the first context.

+     `shift' (`up', `down',...), keys in this alist, are circularly
+     connected by "modify-to", if all their modify contexts are used
+     exclusively, i.e., no other modify chain uses any of them.  The
+     sequence in the "modify chain" is determined by "modify scores"
+     depending on the values in the "modify aspects", the charsym score
+     defined in the definition tables and the score of the whole cset
+     (*note Defining Charsets::.).
+

+               => (1500 shift nil shape nil size big)
+
+     Otherwise, the "modify chain" is divided into modify subchains,
+     which are those charsyms sharing the same modify context.  All
+     modify subchains using the same modify context, build a
+     "horizontal chain" whose charsyms are circularly connected by
+     "modify-to".
+
+     We build a "key chain" for all contexts (not just modify contexts),
+     consisting of all charsyms (sorted according to modify scores)
+     having the context.  Input method Context modifies the context to
+     the first charsym in the key chain.
+
+`x-symbol-key-suffix-string'
+     If there is only one charsym in the key chain, `C-=' plus the
+     context inserts the charsym.  Otherwise, we determine a suffix for
+     each charsym in the key chain by its index and this string.  `C-='
+     plus the context plus the suffix inserts the charsym.

+
+   Assuming that all charsyms form one component, we have:
+
+     Rotate chains:     (1w,2w)-1e-1n and 3w-(2e,3e)-2n.
+     Modify chains:     1w-2w-3w and 1e-2w-3w and 1n-2n.

+Customizing Input Methods
+-------------------------
+
+   When defining contexts for characters, you should try to use default
+contexts to make them and key bindings as consistent as possible.  E.g.,
+package X-Symbol only defines explicit contexts for 186 of the 437
+characters.
+
+`x-symbol-group-input-alist'
+     Defines default scores and bindings for characters of a group
+     (*note Char Group::.).  E.g., the definition (in
+     `x-symbol-latin1-table')
+
+          (aacute 225 (acute "a" Aacute))
+
+     defines `aacute' without any explicit contexts, but having the
+     group `acute' and the subgroup `a'.  The default input for the
+     group is defined by the following element in this variable:
+
+          (acute 0 "%s'" t "'%s")
+
+     That means: 0 is added to the normal "modify-score" of the
+     character.  `%s'' and `'%s' with `%s' substituted by the subgroup,
+     i.e., `a'' and `'a', are the contexts for `aacute'.  The context
+     `'a' is also used for input method Electric since it is prefixed
+     by `t'.
+
+`x-symbol-key-min-length'
+     It is quite unlikely that a one-character context is not the
+     prefix of another context, at least when loading additional font
+     definitions.  In order not to have to change key bindings `C-=
+     KEY' to `C-= KEY 1', it is required that the length of the key
+     binding without `C-=' is at least 2.

+
+Extending X-Symbol with New Fonts
+---------------------------------
+
+   If you add a new token language to package X-Symbol which should
+represent tokens by characters which are not yet defined by package
+X-Symbol, you have to add a new font to package X-Symbol, first.
+
+   When adding new fonts to package X-Symbol, consider that X-Symbol
+has to run under Emacs, XEmacs/Mule and XEmacs/no-Mule.
+
+   Running under Emacs and XEmacs/Mule requires that you cannot use all
+encodings in a font for characters: you should probably only use
+encodings 33 to 126 and 160 to 255.  You should also use a unique pair
+of charset properties `CHARSET_REGISTRY' and `CHARSET_ENCODING'.
+
+   Running under XEmacs/no-Mule can leads to problems when major modes
+do not check whether the previous character is an escape character (in
+our case, a leading character, *note Char Representation::.) when
+looking at a character.  Thus, you should probably not use encodings
+which represent characters in your default font with a special syntax.
+
+   * In LaTeX buffers, characters in `$%\{}' have a special syntax.
+     Thus, you should you should probably not use encodings 36, 37, 92,
+     123 and 125 for characters which could also be useful with token
+     languages `tex' and `utex'.
+
+   * In HTML buffers, characters in `&<>' have a special syntax.  Thus,
+     you should you should probably not use encodings 38, 60 and 62 for
+     characters which could also be useful with token language `sgml'.
+
+   You have to tell package X-Symbol which fonts to use for the normal
+text, subscripts and superscripts.  *Note Installing Fonts Lisp::.
+
+   You have to tell X-Symbol, how to define Mule charsets with Emacs and
+XEmacs/Mule and which leading character to use with XEmacs/no-Mule.

+
+Guidelines for Input Definitions
+--------------------------------
+
+   Read section *Note Defining Input Methods::.  Look at the tables in
+`x-symbol.el'.  Here are some guidelines of how to define the input
+methods for new characters:
+
+  1. Define reasonable character groups for new characters, see *Note
+     Char Group::.  E.g., if you add the IPA font for phonetic
+     characters, you are likely to define at least one additional
+     charset group.  If you do not know whether to use one or two
+     groups for a set of characters, use two.
+
+  2. Define under which Grid/Menu header the character of the new
+     character group should appear.  You may also want to add
+     additional headers for these characters.  *Note Char Group::.
+
+  3. If reasonable, define default contexts for characters of a group,
+     see *Note Customizing Input Methods::.
+
+  4. For the other characters, define contexts by Ascii sequences which
+     look similar to the character.
+
+  5. Form a component for a set of characters which are strongly
+     related to each other.  In most cases, characters of a component
+     are in the same group but not vice versa.  E.g., the simple arrows
+     already defined by package X-Symbol form one component.  You form
+     a component of characters by specifying parents in their
+     definition, see *Note Char Descriptions::.
+
+  6. Use aspects to describe the new characters.  Add new aspects to
+     `x-symbol-modify-aspects-alist' and
+     `x-symbol-rotate-aspects-alist' if necessary (*note Char
+     Descriptions::.).
+
+  7. Finish the definition of your font file (*note Font Definition
+     File::.), load it with `M-x load-file', and initialize the input
+     methods, e.g., by invoking the grid (`M-x x-symbol-grid').
+
+  8. If there are no errors, you are likely to get warnings about equal
+     modify scores.  In this case, the sequence of characters in the
+     modify-to chain is random, so are the numerical suffixes of key
+     bindings.
+
+       a. Define a base score for the whole X-Symbol charset ("cset
+          score") which should be a positive number in order not to
+          change the key bindings of previously defined X-Symbol
+          characters.
+
+       b. Define reasonable scores for newly defined aspects and
+          character groups.
+
+       c. Finally, fine-tune your definitions by charsym scores in the
+          tables.  This should be necessary only for a few characters.

+
+Emacs Lisp File Defining a New Font
+-----------------------------------
+
+   Now put all things together in a separate font definition file.  You
+should not put it in a language definition file.
+
+   Here is a tiny example using only the lower half of the font:
+
+     (provide 'x-symbol-myfont)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myfont-fonts
+       '(("-xsymb-myfont-medium-r-normal--14-140-75-75-p-85-xsymb-myfont")
+         ("-xsymb-myfont_sub-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-74-xsymb-myfont")
+         ("-xsymb-myfont_sup-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-74-xsymb-myfont")))
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-myfont-cset
+       '((("xsymb-myfont") ?\200 1000)
+         (myfont-left "My font characters, left"  94 63) . nil))
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-myfont-table
+       '((longarrownortheast 33 (arrow) (size big . arrownortheast))
+         (koerper 34 (setsymbol "K"))
+         (circleS 35 (symbol "S") nil nil "SO")))
+
+     (x-symbol-init-cset x-symbol-myfont-cset x-symbol-myfont-fonts
+     		      x-symbol-myfont-table)
+
+   Due to an XEmacs bug with char syntax `inherit', you should also add
+the following line to files `x-symbol-xmas20.el' and
+`x-symbol-xmas21.el':
+
+       (modify-syntax-entry ?\200 "\\" (standard-syntax-table))
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Language Extension File,  Next: Language Definition File,  Prev: Font Definition File,  Up: Extending X-Symbol
+
+Emacs Lisp File Extending a Token Language
+------------------------------------------
+
+   If you want to use the new font to extend an existing token language,
+define a new token language which inherits most variables from the
+"parent language".  E.g., token language `utex' inherits most variables
+from `tex', see `x-symbol-utex.el'.
+
+   A language must define variables for all language aspects, see *Note
+Language Internals::.  Our example defines a language `mytex' using the
+additional characters from *Note Font Definition File::.
+
+   First, you have to register the language in a startup file:
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-mytex-name "My TeX macro")
+     (defvar x-symbol-mytex-modes nil)
+     (x-symbol-register-language 'mytex 'x-symbol-mytex x-symbol-mytex-modes)
+
+   The language definition file should look like (leaving out most parts
+which are similar to the ones in `x-symbol-utex.el'):
+
+     (provide 'x-symbol-mytex)
+     (require 'x-symbol-tex)
+     (defvar x-symbol-mytex-required-fonts '(x-symbol-myfont))
+     (put 'mytex 'x-symbol-font-lock-keywords 'x-symbol-tex-font-lock-keywords)
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-mytex-user-table nil)
+     (defvar x-symbol-mytex-myfont-table
+       '((longarrownortheast (math arrow user) "\\longnortheastarrow")
+         (koerper (math letter user) "\\setK")
+         (circleS (math ordinary amssymb) "\\circledS")))
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-mytex-table
+       (append x-symbol-mytex-user-table
+               '(nil)
+               x-symbol-mytex-myfont-table
+               x-symbol-tex-table))
+
+   It is important that you do not define a variable for the language
+access `x-symbol-font-lock-keywords', but rather use the variable of
+the parent language directly, see *Note Language Internals::.
+
+   During the testing phase, you should probably leave out the `'(nil)'
+which prevents warnings about redefinitions for the following elements.
+
+

+
+Emacs Lisp File Defining a New Token Language
+---------------------------------------------
+
+   You might also want to define a new token language not based on
+another language.
+
+   As an example, consider a token language "My Unicode" (`myuc') for
+buffers with major mode `myuc-mode'.  Thus, we register the language by:
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-name "My Unicode")
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-modes '(myuc-mode))
+     (x-symbol-register-language 'myuc 'x-symbol-myuc x-symbol-myuc-modes)
+
+   Each token if language `myuc' consists of `#' plus the hexadecimal
+representation of the Unicode with hexadecimal values where the case of
+digits is not important and the preferred case is upcase.  A single `#'
+is represented by the token `##'.  In order to be more flexible, we
+want to define the tokens by their decimal value in the table.  There
+are no subscript and no images.  The code below (`x-symbol-myuc.el') is
+included in the source distribution of package X-Symbol.
+
+     (provide 'x-symbol-myuc)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-required-fonts nil)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-modeline-name "myuc")
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-class-alist
+       '((VALID "My Unicode" (x-symbol-info-face))
+         (INVALID "no My Unicode" (red x-symbol-info-face))))
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-font-lock-keywords nil)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-image-keywords nil)
+     ...
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-case-insensitive 'upcase)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-token-shape '(?# "#[0-9A-Fa-f]+\\'" . "[0-9A-Fa-f]"))
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-exec-specs '(nil (nil . "#[0-9A-Fa-f]+")))
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-input-token-ignore nil)
+
+     (defun x-symbol-myuc-default-token-list (tokens)
+       (list (format "#%X" (car tokens))))
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-token-list 'x-symbol-myuc-default-token-list)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-user-table nil)
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-xsymb0-table
+       '((alpha () 945) (beta () 946)))
+
+     (defvar x-symbol-myuc-table

+`forward-char-command'

+`backward-char-command'
+     If the point position after the execution of these commands is
+     still "at" the super- or subscript command, the command won't be
+     made invisible at the first place.  Each of these four commands
+     have a function (`1+' and `1-') as the value of its symbol property
+     `x-symbol-point-function' which returns the position "after" when

+
+Alternative Token Representations
+---------------------------------
+
+   Package X-Symbol represents tokens in the file by characters in the
+buffer.  This requires an automatic conversion when visiting a file or
+saving a buffer, see *Note Conversion::.
+
+   Another possibility would be to use the tokens directly in the buffer
+and just display them differently.  You would need no conversion and you
+could copy the text easily to a message buffer.  This could be done by a
+special face and an additional font-lock keyword for every token.  The
+disadvantages make this approach unfeasible:
+
+   * The editing commands would work on the tokens which are invisible
+     for the user.
+
+   * Extremely resource and startup-time consuming.  If as many
+     characters should be supported as done by package X-Symbol,
+     including superscripts and subscripts, more than 2000 faces with
+     display tables would have to be defined even without considering
+     char aliases!
+
+   * Time consuming.  More than 2000 entries in you font-lock keywords
+     would slow down the fontification considerably, which would be too
+     much even when using `lazy-shot'!
+
+   Another possibility would be to adapt TeX to the representations of
+the corresponding characters in Emacs' buffer.  Again, you would need no
+conversion.  The disadvantages make this approach too restrictive:
+
+   * You cannot adopt SGML to this approach.
+
+   * You cannot read normal LaTeX files directly, you do not write
+     normal LaTeX files.
+
+   * You would have different TeX versions: one for X-Symbol with Emacs
+     and XEmacs/Mule, one with XEmacs/no-Mule.
+
+   * If you are not an extremely good TeX hacker, it would be impossible
+     to adopt this approach to support more than 256 characters.
+
+   A third alternative would be very similar to the method used in this
+package.  There would be just a slight difference when running under
+XEmacs/no-Mule: the internal representation of a character is always
+just one character, but we would also provide font properties for
+characters not of your default font.  The disadvantages make this
+approach too unsafe:
+
+   * Problems with current search/replace commands.
+
+   * Problems with the current version of `font-lock' (it should *never*
+     overwrite the font property for this character, even if the
+     character matches some MATCH in `font-lock-keywords' and OVERWRITE
+     is non-`nil').  This gets even more difficult with
+     superscripts/subscripts.
+
+   * Unless you can provide a syntax table for faces (you cannot),
+     characters in different faces with the same encoding are in the
+     same syntax class, which is irritating: e.g., `\leftrightarrow'
+     and `\approx' would be delimiters.

+Alternative Ways to Turn on X-Symbol Globally
+---------------------------------------------
+
+   This package hooks itself into `hack-local-variables-hook' which
+makes the installation very simple.
+
+   Another possibility would be to use the major-mode hooks which is the
+normal way how to turn on a minor mode.  The disadvantages are:
+
+   * The installation is more complicated.
+
+   * Local variables in files are not yet processed (this was the main
+     reason not to do it this way).
+
+   Another possibility would be to hook X-Symbol into
+`find-file-hooks', as it is done in old versions of package X-Symbol.
+It would be as easy as the current approach but we would have to be
+careful with sequence of functions in `find-file-hooks', especially
+with the function hooked in by `font-lock'.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Alt Auto Conversion,  Prev: Alt Global Mode,  Up: Design Alternatives
+
+Alternative Auto Conversion Methods
+-----------------------------------
+
+   Without package `crypt', this package automatically decodes tokens
+when turning on the minor mode (in `hack-local-variables-hook', *note
+Alt Global Mode::.) or in `after-insert-file-functions'.  This package
+automatically encodes characters in `write-region-annotate-functions'.
+The disadvantage is that the possibility to change buffers in
+`write-region-annotate-functions' is not official (*note Wishlist
+Emacs::.), i.e., not mentioned in the docstring (only mentioned for
+corresponding encode-functions of package `format' which use a similar
+loop in the C code).
+
+   With package `crypt', this package automatically decodes tokens when
+turning on the minor mode.  This package automatically encodes
+characters in `write-file-hooks'.  The disadvantage is that the
+encoding is slower (use `jka-compr' instead `crypt') and the problem
+with `vc-next-action' (*note Spurious Encodings::.).
+
+   Without package `crypt', Version 2.6 of this package automatically
+encoded characters in `write-file-data-hooks'.  The advantage was that
+changing buffers there is official, the disadvantage is that it is also
+more complicated.
+
+   A totally different method would be to use package `format'.
+Unfortunately, this is not really possible, since a REGEXP in
+`format-alist' is much too weak, i.e., X-Symbol's decoding does not
+change any file headers which would represent the file format.  In
+XEmacs, this package also fails to work properly with `jka-compr' and
+`crypt'.

+Language Internals
+==================
+
+   In order to use a token language or accessing one of the language
+dependent values, the following conditions must be met:
+
+   * The language must be "registered".  This makes it possible to
+     select the language in the menus.  It also prevents to load a
+     potentially dangerous file when a file specifies a buffer-local
+     value of `x-symbol-language'.
+
+    `x-symbol-register-language'
+          Registering a language includes stating the name of the
+          feature (i.e., a file) which provides the language.  The name
+          of the language must have been already defined.
+
+   * The file providing the language must have been "loaded".  This will
+     be done automatically when the language is initialized.
+     Customizing X-Symbol will also load the language files.
+
+   * The language must be "initialized".  This will be done
+     automatically if the language is used.  This loads the language
+     file and fails if the language has not been registered.  If some
+     minor language information is needed, e.g., in the highlight menu
+     of the Grid (*note Input Method Grid::.), you should initialize
+     the language explicitly, e.g., by the following command:
+
+    `M-x x-symbol-init-language-interactive'
+          Initialized a token language if it is not already initialized.
+
+   Language dependent values are accessed by language accesses:
+
+`x-symbol-language-value'
+     Returns the language depending value.  Also initializes language if
+     necessary.  E.g., we get the name of a language by the language
+     access `x-symbol-name'.  With a simplified expansion, we get
+
+          (x-symbol-language-value 'x-symbol-name 'tex)
+               ==> (symbol-value (get 'tex 'x-symbol-name))
+               => (symbol-value 'x-symbol-tex-name)
+               => "TeX macro"
+
+`x-symbol-language-access-alist'
+     List of all language accesses.  A token language *must* define all
+     variables accessed by language accesses.  A "language access" is a
+     property of the language symbol, its value is the symbol naming a
+     variable whose value is used.
+
+     If the language is a derived language, e.g., like language `utex',
+     the language access `x-symbol-font-lock-keywords', should point
+     directly to the variable of the parent language (here `tex'), see
+     file `x-symbol-utex.el'.

+
+Problems under XEmacs/no-Mule
+=============================
+
+   If you use package X-Symbol under XEmacs/no-Mule, there are some
+annoyances which result from the fact that additional "X-Symbol
+characters" are represented by two characters internally.  Package
+X-Symbol just provides a kind of "*poor* man's Mule", see *Note Poor
+Mans Mule::.  This means: I have provided workarounds for the most
+annoying ones, but some remain (and will remain: I am not going to
+provide workarounds for these):
+
+   * If `font-lock' is not prepared to display these two-character
+     sequences, i.e., if you installation is incomplete (*note Role of
+     font-lock::.), they look like `\233a' instead `alpha'.
+
+   * Commands which add more than one entry to the `buffer-undo-list'
+     and involve X-Symbol characters might lead to strange results,
+     e.g. `C-t' (`transpose-chars') with point between character
+     `alpha' and `b', leads to `beta'`a'.  Simple deletion and
+     insertion works OK, though.
+
+   * Selecting or inserting a rectangle with X-Symbol characters on the
+     left or right margin might not work properly.
+
+   * Be careful with `M-%' (`query-replace'): the first character of
+     FROM-STRING can probably match the second of the two "internal"
+     characters of an X-Symbol character.
+
+   * If you use `C-x '' (`expand-abbrev') without `M-''
+     (`abbrev-prefix-mark') and the last word before point starts
+     directly after a X-Symbol character, `C-x '' could behave strange:
+
+        - If `words-include-escapes' is `t', there will be no expansion.
+
+        - If `words-include-escapes' is `nil', the second "internal"
+          character could be the first character of the last word
+          before point which is going to be replaced by the abbrev
+          mechanism.
+
+   * If the character under point is a X-Symbol character, you will not
+     see the cursor if you exit a command with an error or with quit
+     (`C-g').  Unfortunately, XEmacs (as opposed to Emacs) does not run
+     the hooks in `post-command-hook' in these cases.  Solution: move
+     point right (`C-f').
+
+   * If you provide prefix arguments to commands, they are likely to
+     consider just "internal" characters.  E.g., `C-u 2 C-f' before
+     `alpha' behaves like `C-f'.
+
+   * Column position considers "internal" characters, e.g., `C-n' might
+     jump to an unexpected position (well, typically just one character
+     left/right from the expected position, if at all).
+
+   * Auto-filling also considers "internal" characters, i.e., might
+     break the line too early.
+
+   * There are no syntax definitions for the new characters, e.g.,
+     `M-C-f' before `floorleft' does not move to the closing
+     `floorright'.
+
+   * In some cases, e.g., when using the minibuffer for input via `M-%'
+     or `C-s', the internal representation of X-Symbol characters
+     (*note Char Representation::.) are displayed directly (*note FAQ
+     Strange Chars::.)
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Spurious Encodings,  Next: No Encoding,  Prev: Nomule Problems,  Up: Problems
+
+Spurious Encodings
+==================
+
+   In rare cases, some commands (mostly from package `vc') encode
+characters to tokens or even turn off X-Symbol mode.  Package X-Symbol
+will not provide a workaround for these problems, because the situations
+in which they appear are too rare, the workarounds are easy, and the
+problems are not really caused by package X-Symbol.
+
+   * Doing the next logical version control operation (`C-x v v' and
+     friends) encode characters to tokens when using package `crypt'.
+
+     Solution: use package `jka-compr' instead `crypt' (this is
+     recommended anyway, *note File IO Packages::.).  Or kill the
+     buffer and revisit the file.
+
+   * When using AucTeX with its default-mode algorithm, getting rid of
+     the recently checked-in version of a file without reverting the
+     buffer afterwards (`C-u C-x v c') turns off X-Symbol mode without
+     encoding the characters, e.g. under XEmacs/no-Mule, you see some
+     strange characters like `\233a'.
+
+     Explanation: when using AucTeX's `TeX-default-mode', the final
+     `major-mode' is different from the initial `major-mode' deduced
+     using `auto-mode-alist'.  If this is the case, the VC command
+     executes `normal-mode' which kills all local-variables including
+     turning-off `x-symbol-mode'.
+
+     Solution: Turn on X-Symbol mode or change `auto-mode-alist' to
+     directly choose `latex-mode':
+
+          (push '("\\[tT]e[xX]\\'" . latex-mode) auto-mode-alist)
+
+   * When using AucTeX with its default-mode algorithm, writing a LaTeX
+     buffer into a file with another file name turns off X-Symbol mode.
+
+     Explanation: Emacs sets the major mode with the file name.  When
+     using AucTeX's `TeX-default-mode', we get the problems as
+     described in the previous item.
+
+     Solution: Set `change-major-mode-with-file-name' to `nil' or use
+     the solution from the previous item.

+
+The Encoding Does Not Work
+==========================
+
+   In a rare case, X-Symbol cannot do its encoding, i.e., convert the
+characters to tokens.
+
+   * `M-x write-region' fails to do the encoding if you use package
+     `crypt'.
+
+     Explanation: with package `crypt', the encoding has to be done by a
+     function in `write-file-hooks' which is not used by `write-region'.
+
+     Solution: use package `jka-compr' instead `crypt' (this is
+     recommended anyway, *note File IO Packages::.).  Or visit the
+     region file and save it again via `C-x C-s'.

+
+XEmacs Crashes when using Input Method Token
+--------------------------------------------
+
+   It has been reported that XEmacs-21.0 to XEmacs-21.1.8 might produce
+cores when you use input method Token.  That's why I strongly recommend
+to use XEmacs-21.1.9 or higher with package X-Symbol, see *Note
+Requirements::.
+
+   You get a warning during X-Symbol's initialization when using these
+XEmacs versions.  If you don't want to upgrade, but also don't want to
+see the warning, you might want to set variable
+`x-symbol-xmas-warn-about-core' to `nil'.
+
+   A core in XEmacs always indicates a bug in XEmacs itself, not in a
+Lisp package like X-Symbol.  Thus, send a bug report to the XEmacs team
+if you get cores with the *newest* version of XEmacs (please put me in
+the CC).

+
+X-Symbol's Fontification does Not Work
+--------------------------------------
+
+   In this case, super- and subscripts are not properly displayed
+(*note FAQ No Subscripts::.) and under XEmacs/no-Mule, the buffer
+contains s.th. like `\233a' (*note FAQ Strange Chars::.).  Possible
+causes:
+
+   * You have turned off `font-lock' or `font-lock' is out of sync.
+     Use `M-x x-symbol-fontify'.  *Note Role of font-lock::.
+
+   * The font-lock keywords of the current buffer are not prepared to
+     display X-Symbol characters.  *Note Role of font-lock::.
+
+   * You use package `fast-lock'.  Solution: set `fast-lock-save-faces'
+     to `nil' (done by default installation).
+
+   * You use some version control commands.  You have probably noticed
+     that these versions control commands also turn off `font-lock' in
+     modes where you don't use X-Symbol, i.e., this is not a problem of
+     package X-Symbol.  *note Wishlist Emacs::. and *Note Spurious
+     Encodings::.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: FAQ Strange Chars,  Next: FAQ No Subscripts,  Prev: FAQ font-lock,  Up: FAQ
+
+The Buffer Contains Strange Characters
+--------------------------------------
+
+   If you see s.th. like `\233a', you see the internal representation
+of X-Symbol characters under XEmacs/no-Mule (*note Char
+Representation::.) directly.  Possible causes:
+
+   * You have `font-lock' problems, see *Note FAQ font-lock::.
+
+   * More complicated editing commands like `C-t' may produce strange
+     character sequences which do not represent X-Symbol characters, see
+     *Note Nomule Problems::.
+
+   * In some cases, e.g., when using the minibuffer for input via `M-%'
+     or `C-s', it would be too much work to fontify these character
+     sequences in order to display proper X-Symbol characters.  *Note
+     Nomule Problems::.
+
+   If Emacs shows some strange glyphs for some characters in your
+buffers but not the Grid, there is a font in you font path which
+pretends to have charset registry-encoding `adobe-fontspecific', but in
+fact uses another encoding.  E.g., Mathematica's fonts cause the
+characters intersection and union to mix up.  Possible solutions:
+
+   * Delete that font from the font path.  Maybe moving it at the end
+     also works.
+
+   * In Emacs-21, you have the chance to disable the use of some fonts
+     (if you know something similar for XEmacs, please let me know).
+     For example, to disable the fonts from Mathematica, use
+
+          (setq face-ignored-fonts '("\\`-wri-math1"))
+
+   * If the characters show up correctly initially, but mix up after
+     some font changing command, don't use that command.  E.g., the
+     font selection in XEmacs via the Options menu seems to loose some
+     information about the original font.  OK, this is not really a
+     satisfying solution, but the whole issue isn't my fault, either.

+
+I Cannot See any/some Super- or Subscripts
+------------------------------------------
+
+   If you cannot select `Super-/Subscripts' in the menu, the first of
+the following points is more likely the cause, the others otherwise.
+
+   * You have `font-lock' problems, see *Note FAQ font-lock::.
+
+   * There are cases where super- and subscripts are not displayed, see
+     *Note Super and Subscripts::.
+
+   * The argument in braces are not correctly recognized, since the
+     `font-lock' syntax-table is not correct.  It should include `{' as
+     the only open parenthesis and `}' as the only close parenthesis
+     character.  Note that this is quite difficult to archive under
+     Emacs and XEmacs/Mule.  This is a minor bug in the corresponding
+     `font-lock' package, but would require other changes there,
+     therefore not likely to be fixed.  Fortunately, this does not
+     happen often.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: FAQ Stupid Subscripts,  Next: FAQ Font Size,  Prev: FAQ No Subscripts,  Up: FAQ
+
+I See Super- and Subscripts where I Don't Want Them.
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+   E.g., I see a subscript in arguments of `\label'.  Package X-Symbol
+only uses super- and subscripts if they are in braces, if the
+`asciicircum'/`underscore' has not been fontified yet or is only
+fontified with faces which are allowed by
+`x-symbol-tex-font-lock-allowed-faces', see *Note Super and
+Subscripts::.
+
+   * You use the default `tex-font-lock-keywords': The argument of
+     `\include' and friends are not fontified by these, i.e., the use
+     of super- and subscripts are not prohibited.  Solution: add your
+     own keyword for these commands or use package `font-latex', see
+     below.
+
+   * You use package `font-latex'.  Solution: set
+     `font-lock-maximum-decoration' to value `t', 2 or higher.  Package
+     X-Symbol will still use subscripts in `\verb', in the `verbatim'
+     environment, in the argument of `\includegraphics' and probably
+     other commands.  Some of these problems will probably be solved by
+     future versions of `font-latex'.
+
+   * You use my font-lock keywords (file `x-font-lock.el'): everything
+     should work fine.  Please note that this file is not meant to be a
+     replacement of `font-latex.el' useful to all users.  Also,
+     highlighting is a matter of taste, i.e., I am not going to change
+     the `x-font-lock.el' to support LaTeX-2.09, TeX's math regions,
+     other likings, etc.
+
+   * You use your own font-lock keywords for TeX.  In this case, you be
+     able to adapt the solutions from the previous points to your
+     situation.

+The Characters are Too Small or Too Big
+---------------------------------------
+
+   Why aren't there more different font sizes?  Because nobody
+(including the author) was in the mood to design them (actually only
+the xsymb1 font needs to be designed).  *Please do only ask the author
+whether they are in work if you are serious to do it yourself

+   Why do I get a lower-case letter when I should get a capital letter

+
+The Conversion Changes Some Tokens
+----------------------------------
+
+   In most token languages, a character might be represented by
+different tokens.  If this character is encoded (when saving the
+buffer), the canonical representation is saved.  *Note Unique
+Decoding::.
+
+   * Solution: Do not redefine standard TeX macros or use unique
+     decoding.

+
+A Space is Added During the Encoding
+------------------------------------
+
+   A space is added after some characters during the encoding to tokens.
+With token languages `tex' and `utex' (not with language `sgml'), there
+must be a space after the token to recognize its end in some cases.
+
+   E.g., if your buffer contains `a+b' (where + stands for the
+character `circleplus'), this is encoded to `a\oplus b' (note the space
+after `\oplus').  Decoding it yields `a+ b'.
+
+   I admit, this looks ugly.  The space is only added if the symbol
+character is followed by a letter or by `@'.  Thus, decoding
+`a\oplus\beta' yields `a+b' (without space!).
+
+   * Suggestion: Also use a space before `\oplus'.  The alternative
+     would be to delete the space which other people won't like.

+     (setq x-symbol-sgml-user-table '((hyphen)))
+
+   A better alternative would be to make `font-lock' display these
+character in a different color.

+
+Problems with Spell-checking
+----------------------------
+
+   As explained in *Note Miscellaneous Packages::, `ispell' assumes the
+buffer contents to be the same as the file contents and does not provide
+any hook to fix this.  This might break `ispell-word' and
+`ispell-region'.  Possible symptoms:
+
+   * A word which contains letters which the program `ispell' does not
+     know about is either not spell-checked or parts of it are
+     spell-checked as independent words.
+
+     Solution: Use the `ispell's 8bit dictionaries even if you do not
+     store 8bit characters in the file.  This should fix the problem for
+     almost every word, except, e.g., words containing the Latin-9
+     character `oe' if you use a Latin-1 encoding.
+
+   * Spell-checking might stop with the error message `Ispell
+     misalignment'.  I can reproduce this only with Emacs, not with
+     XEmacs.
+
+     Question: If you know some settings (like for
+     `process-coding-system-alist') which solves this problem, please
+     let me know!
+
+     Solution: turn X-Symbol off before spell-checking your buffer.
+     This is of course no option if you use `flyspell'.
+
+   The real solution would be to fix `ispell', at least by providing a
+useful hook which allows X-Symbol to fix the problem.  *Note Wishlist
+Emacs::.  You are strongly encouraged to send a patch to the maintainer
+of `ispell', you even get a paragraph here in *Note Acknowledgments::!

+
+How to Use X-Symbol with Gnus or VM
+-----------------------------------
+
+   You can also use X-Symbol to read and write your News and Mails.
+This sections includes coding for your `~/.emacs' if you want to do so.
+It has been tested for GNUS-5.8.8 and VM-6.96; if you use RMAIL or
+MH-E, you have to try to find a solution yourself (please send it to
+me).  Support for GNUS might become a standard part of X-Symbol.
+
+     (custom-set-variables
+      '(x-symbol-auto-style-alist
+        '(((mail-mode message-mode gnus-article-mode vm-presentation-mode)
+           tex nil nil nil nil t nil))))
+
+   This is optional (you might want to use the Custom interface for the
+same effect) and tells Emacs/X-Symbol to use token language `tex' and
+to display super-/subscripts (if `font-lock' is enabled), X-Symbol is
+not automatically turned on.  *Note Minor Mode::.
+
+     (defun x-symbol-x-mail-send-hook ()
+       (if x-symbol-mode (x-symbol-mode 0)))
+     (add-hook 'mail-send-hook 'x-symbol-x-mail-send-hook)
+     (add-hook 'message-send-hook 'x-symbol-x-mail-send-hook)
+     (add-hook 'vm-mail-send-hook 'x-symbol-x-mail-send-hook)
+
+   This tells tells Emacs to automatically turn off X-Symbol (which
+includes encoding characters to token) before actually sending the
+message.
+
+     (defun x-symbol-x-gnus-prepare ()
+       (when x-symbol-mode
+         (setq x-symbol-mode nil)
+         (x-symbol-mode-internal nil)))
+     (add-hook 'gnus-article-prepare-hook 'x-symbol-x-gnus-prepare)
+
+   Since GNUS reuses the `*Article*' buffer, where X-Symbol could have
+been turned on previously, we must make sure that X-Symbol is turned
+off with the new article.
+
+     (defun x-symbol-x-vm-prepare ()
+       (and (boundp 'vm-presentation-buffer)
+            (buffer-live-p vm-presentation-buffer)
+            (save-excursion
+     	 (set-buffer vm-presentation-buffer)
+     	 (when x-symbol-mode
+     	   (setq x-symbol-mode nil)
+     	   (x-symbol-mode-internal nil)))))
+     (add-hook 'vm-select-message-hook 'x-symbol-x-gnus-prepare)
+
+   The same thing for VM, although the hook is not as nice as GNUS'
+one; the function therefore might depend a bit too much on VM's interna.
+
+     (put 'vm-mode 'x-symbol-mode-disable
+          "Use VM Presentation Mode to turn on X-Symbol")
+     (custom-set-variables '(vm-fill-paragraphs-containing-long-lines 80))
+
+   You cannot use X-Symbol in VM Mode, only in VM Presentation Mode
+(X-Symbol would change your `INBOX').  The first (optional) Emacs Lisp
+expression gives you a better error message when you try to turn on
+X-Symbol Mode in VM Mode.  The second line makes sure that VM always
+uses VM Presentation Mode to display the articles.

+
+How to Send a Bug/Problem Report
+================================
+
+   Bug fixes, bug/problem reports, improvements, and suggestions are
+strongly appreciated.  So are corrections to this manual (better
+explanations, correcting my English, ...).  Especially useful would be
+some feedback by people using default fonts with a charset
+registry-encoding other than `iso8859-1' (Western encoding).
+
+   Please read this section carefully, even if you generally know how to
+send a bug report (*note Bugs: (xemacs)Bugs.).  This might look tedious
+to you, but it actually saves a lot of time (your time, too).
+
+   For each bug/problem report or question you want to send to the
+maintainer, please use the following sequence:
+
+  1. Make sure that you use the *newest version* of X-Symbol.  You are
+     reading Edition 4.5 (XEmacs) of the manual for X-Symbol 4.5.
+
+  2. Read the manual, especially *Note Checking Installation::, *Note
+     Problems:: and *Note FAQ::.  The four indexes (*note Indexes::.)
+     might also lead you to an answer to your question.
+
+  3. Use `M-x x-symbol-package-bug' (also to be found in X-Symbol's
+     Command submenu) to write your report describing *one* bug or
+     problem, i.e., use *different mails* for *unrelated problems*.
+     Please do not "reuse" a mail thread with the maintainer, i.e., if
+     you start a section with "Here is another problem", you do
+     something wrong.
+
+     If Emacs is not your mail tool, copy the Subject header line and
+     the message body from Emacs' `*mail*' buffer to your mail tool.
+
+     If `M-x x-symbol-package-bug' fails to work, you have a problem
+     with your installation and your report should be about this
+     problem.  In this case, use `x-symbol VERSION; SUMMARY' as Subject
+     header where VERSION is the version of X-Symbol and SUMMARY is a
+     brief summary of your installation problem.
+
+     (*Rationale*: This command automatically extracts some essential
+     information without any work by you.  Don't waste your time
+     pondering whether you should really use this command to write your
+     report.)
+
+  4. Start your report with:
+
+          In the manual, I checked the sections SECTION1, SECTION2,
+          ..., but didn't find anything which helped me with the
+          following problem:
+
+     The sections SECTION1, SECTION2, etc are names (not numbers!) of
+     the sections (not whole chapters!) in the manual where you would
+     expect an answer to your question/problem/bug.
+
+     If you didn't know which sections to inspect, please check the
+     indexes.  If they are not helpful, send me words/terms which
+     should be included in the indexes.
+
+     (*Rationale*: This way, I get an idea where to improve the manual,
+     especially by adding cross references.)
+
+  5. If buffer `*Warnings*' does not exist in the buffer menu,
+     everything is fine so far.  So is (for me as the author of package
+     X-Symbol), if `X-Symbol' is not mentioned there.  Otherwise,
+     include the contents of buffer `*Warnings*' into your bug report.
+
+     Temporary Emacs (< v21.4) note: the warnings might be somewhere
+     hidden in buffer `*Messages*'; please check that buffer.
+
+  6. Put the parts of the code from `~/.emacs' and the system-wide files
+     which causes the problem into a fresh file `MY-PROBLEM.el'.  The
+     problem/error should be visible when invoking
+
+          xemacs -no-site-file -q -l MY-PROBLEM.el
+
+     In the minimal case, `MY-PROBLEM.EL' just contains the following
+     line (*note Installing Lisp::.):
+
+          (x-symbol-initialize)
+
+     If the error has disappeared after you have included your complete
+     `~/.xemacs/init.el' and `~/.emacs', the problem is likely caused
+     by some code of your system-wide installation.  Include the code,
+     which can be found using command `M-x find-library' with files
+     `site-start' and `default' (everything is fine if these files do
+     not exist).
+
+     If you use `x-symbol-site.el' (its use is deprecated), copy its
+     contents into `MY-PROBLEM.EL' and delete the corresponding `load'
+     command.
+
+     Attach the file `MY-PROBLEM.el' to your report.  *Please try to
+     minimize the size of `MY-PROBLEM.el'*!  A standard technique is
+     recursive halving: Delete the second half of `MY-PROBLEM.EL'.  If
+     the problem disappears, delete the first half instead.  Do the
+     same with the smaller file again, ....
+
+     (*Rationale*: Most problems are a consequence of some specific
+     customizations, but I don't have time to debug each user's init
+     file.)
+
+  7. If you have set variable `custom-file' in `MY-PROBLEM.el', attach
+     the corresponding file to your report.
+
+  8. If the error can only be reproduced in combination with another
+     Emacs package, please send me:
+
+        - If it is included in the standard Emacs/XEmacs distribution /
+          if is an XEmacs package: the version you use if it is not
+          that from the Emacs/XEmacs distribution (use `M-x
+          find-library' to check whether you really use the version
+          from the Emacs/XEmacs distribution).
+
+        - If it is a non-standard (and non-obscure) package: the URL of
+          the distribution and/or the source.
+
+        - Otherwise: include its code into `MY-PROBLEM.el' and delete
+          the corresponding `load' or `require' command.  Then, reduce
+          the size of `MY-PROBLEM.el' as described above.
+
+  9. If the problem is not reproducible with an *arbitrary* (`.tex',
+     `.html', ...) file, try to minimize the file such that the problem
+     can be still reproducible, and include the file with its full file
+     name into your bug report.
+
+     (*Rationale*: Most problems are only reproducible with specific
+     files.)
+
+ 10. Finally, include the exact key sequence which causes the problem
+     into your bug report.  You should also tell me the name of the
+     buffer in which the problem occurred and how you have created that
+     buffer (e.g., by `C-x C-f FILE <RET>').
+
+     At best, you start your Emacs, and then try to reproduce the
+     problem as fast as possible (i.e., with a minimum number of
+     key/mouse strokes).
+
+     As soon as the problem appears, press `C-h l' and include the
+     contents of buffer `*Help*' in your bug report.
+
+     (*Rationale*: Most problems are only reproducible with point being
+     at a specific position in the file, with specific key sequences,
+     etc.)
+
+ 11. If you have problem with the display of images, please include the
+     output of the shell commands `convert -h' and `convert -list
+     Format' in your bug report.  If the first command fails, you have a
+     problem with the program `convert', not X-Symbol.
+
+ 12. If necessary, include a screen-shot in your bug report.
+
+ 13. If you could not use `M-x x-symbol-package-bug', include the
+     contents of buffer `*Help*' after the following actions:
+
+        - Type `C-h v x-symbol-version <RET>'.
+
+        - Type `C-h v emacs-version <RET>'.
+
+        - Type `C-h v features <RET>'.
+
+
+   If you have solved your problem during this sequence, but you think
+your situation is worth to be mention in this manual (e.g., in *Note
+Package Integration::), I would appreciate if you would send me a some
+new text for this manual or a normal bug report together with your
+solution.

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 4.5
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 4.5 has been released on March 2003 as beta.
+
+   * X-Symbol finally respects the Mule coding system of each
+     individual buffer.
+
+   * Bug fix: would mess up encoding of math-mode characters with token
+     language `bib'.  Other conversion fixes for languages `bib' and
+     `texi'.
+
+   * Bug fix (workaround for bug in XEmacs): auto-save files would have
+     length 0.
+
+   * Bug fix (Emacs): package now works with package `crypt'/`crypt++'.
+
+   * Token language `sgml': always encode characters to entity
+     references by default (not possible with most Latin-N characters,
+     where we still use character entities).  Include `hm--html-mode',
+     `html-helper-mode', remove `sgml-mode' as typical major modes.
+
+   * Token language `tex': support some symbols of package
+     `stmaryrd.sty'.
+
+   * Change the auto-style, formerly auto-mode, mechanism.
+
+   * Image support when running on Emacs.
+
+   * New input method Quail, a usual Mule input method.
+
+   * Corrected Latin-5 definitions.  Support Latin-5 ("Turkish") on
+     XEmacs running under Windows.
+
+   * X-Symbol works with Emacs/XEmacs running under a character
+     terminal.
+
+   * Improments for external languages.  Super-/subscript matching of
+     token languages has changed.
+
+   * X-Symbol can use package `format' and does not require special
+     fonts for super-/subscripts with Emacs-21.4+.  Still open whether
+     this will be used....
+
+   * Dropped support for XEmacs-20.3.
+
+   * Various bug fixes and minor changes.
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Changes 4.4,  Next: Changes 4.1,  Prev: Changes 4.5,  Up: News
+
+Changes in X-Symbol 4.2, 4.3, 4.4
+---------------------------------
+
+   Version 4.4 has been released on June 2002 as beta.
+
+   * Token language TeX has changed: no excessive use of braces
+     anymore, no excessive normalization, and aware of environments
+     `{tabbing}' and `{verbatim}', and macro `\verb'.  Reading and
+     saving "old-encoded" files works without changes in the file (the
+     buffer looks different), there is also a command to remove the
+     unwanted braces around accented letters.
+
+   * New token language "BibTeX Macro" (`bib', similar to old `tex'),
+     used for BibTeX files.
+
+   * Nuked executables, the Lisp conversion for all languages is now 2-5
+     times faster.
+
+   * Latin-9 support.  Latin-9 font included in distribution.
+
+   * Works with XEmacs-21.4+ on Windows.  Of course, it just supports a
+     limited number of characters and no super- and subscripts there
+     due to missing fonts.
+
+   * More likely to save 8bit characters in the file by default: also
+     look for 8bit characters in the file when visiting the file, also
+     inspect master file (`TeX-master') with token language `tex'.
+
+   * New buffer-local variable `x-symbol-unique': when non-`nil',
+     decodes much less tokens to avoid near to all normalizations, used
+     for TeX's style files (but X-Symbol is not automatically turned
+     on).  Dropped token language `utex'.
+
+   * Menu changes, new commands: submenu "Conversion", menu items "Copy
+     Encoded", "Paste Decoded" and others.
+
+   * Special coding for `preview-latex'.  Using X-Symbol now only gives
+     a 10% overhead of `preview's parsing time.
+
+   * X-Symbol now works with WhizzyTeX.
+
+   * The interface for defining a token language has changed, it is
+     also much more general, useful for ProofGeneral.
+
+   * Changed final bytes of ISO 2022 escape sequence for X-Symbol
+     charsets since Emacs reserves the characters `0-9' for itself.
+     Does XEmacs has any policy here (it also uses `?')?
+
+   * Dropped workaround for minor bug in XEmacs-20.X.
+
+   * Various bug fixes and minor changes.

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 4.1
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 4.1 has been released on Mar 2002 as beta.
+
+   * X-Symbol works with Emacs-21.1 or higher.  Porting is not
+     complete, yet.
+
+   * New token language "TeXinfo command" (`texi').
+
+   * Slightly different definition of "valid character".
+
+   * Remove the "local if set" and "default: ..." submenu stuff.

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 3.4
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 3.4 has been released on Mar 2002.
+
+   * Moved to SourceForge.net.  Added files for nicer HTML output of
+     manual.
+
+   * Would sometimes perform strange conversions when
+     `global-flyspell-mode' is enabled.
+
+   * Bug fixes: command `M-x write-region' would always save the whole
+     buffer if X-Symbol is enabled for that buffer, writing a remote
+     file via ange-ftp would not work (was OK with efs).
+
+   * Automatically deduce default coding via `locale -ck LC_CTYPE'.
+
+   * Issue warning when running on XEmacs-21.0 to XEmacs-21.1.8.  Update
+     manual: XEmacs user package directory is `~/.xemacs/packages'.
+
+   * Directories ending with `//' in image search paths are recursive.
+
+   * New characters used for token languages "TeX macro" and "Isabelle
+     symbol".
+
+   * Make sure to convert just the first part of a multi-part image.
+
+   * Source distribution includes files for building an RPM package, all
+     files also compile without Mule support.
+
+   * Minor changes.  Manual changes.

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 3.3
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 3.3 has been released on Jan 1999.
+
+   * Package X-Symbol is really a proper XEmacs package: no need to
+     create fonts and to set the font path.  With XEmacs/no-Mule, I
+     still recommend to create the executables (type `M-x
+     x-symbol-exec-create').
+
+   * New functions used for interaction with Emacs package `comint'.
+     This is necessary for new token language "Isabelle symbol", to be
+     distributed with Emacs package
+     ProofGeneral (http://www.proofgeneral.org/).
+
+   * New characters used for token languages "TeX macro" and "Isabelle
+     symbol".
+
+   * Minor changes.  Manual changes.

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 3.2
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 3.2 has been released on Dec 1998.
+
+   * Package X-Symbol is a proper XEmacs package.  The installation
+     process is much easier (using the binary package).  It has
+     changed, though!  The use of file `x-symbol-site.el' is deprecated.
+
+   * Reverting the buffer and using `vc' commands do not encode
+     characters when not using `crypt'.  (This did not work always.)
+
+   * Workaround for bug (segfault) in XEmacs-21/Mule betas.
+
+   * Command `x-symbol-package-bug' is less restrictive.  Please use
+     this command to contact the maintainer.
+
+   * Bug fixes.  Minor changes.  Manual changes.

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 3.1
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 3.1 has been released on Oct 1998.
+
+   * TeX macro `\mu' is represented by a character in the Adobe Symbol
+     font, not in a Latin-{1,3,5} font anymore.
+
+   * Support for most SGML entities in HTML-4.0 specification.
+
+   * Additional characters for `\therefore'/`&there4;', `&oline;' and
+     `&euro;'.
+
+   * Package X-Symbol has been customized.
+
+   * The documentation has been completed (as TeXinfo file).
+
+   * Handle special URL prefixes `file:', `http:' for images.
+
+   * Bug fixes, configuration changes.
+
+

+
+Changes in X-Symbol 3.0
+-----------------------
+
+   Version 3.0 has been released on Sep 1998 as beta.
+
+   * Package X-Symbol now works on XEmacs with and without Mule support.
+     Dropped support for XEmacs 19.13 to 19.16/20.2.
+
+   * Full support of token language `sgml' (executables, subscripts,
+     images).
+
+   * X-Symbol is a proper minor mode.
+
+   * Easier (automatic) 8bit character control (e.g., for `\times'
+     `\pm',...).  By default, the encoding when saving only writes 8bit
+     characters, if `\usepackage[latinN]{inputenc}' with N=1,2,3,5 was
+     found in the first 10000 characters of the file (including
+     commentary).
+
+   * Package X-Symbol can be easily extended with new token languages
+     and fonts due to its modular design.  It consistently handles
+     situations where an entry for an additional character defines the
+     same preferred key binding (and context) as for a previously
+     defined character
+
+   * Key bindings have completely changed.  They are now consistent
+     with the contexts of input method Context (which have changed a
+     bit).
+
+   * The keys `@' and `!' are not used anymore as Modify- and
+     Rotate-Key.  The Rotate key (instead of the Modify-Key) is used to
+     "Greek"ify the previous Ascii char.
+
+   * Input method Aggressive Context is now called input method
+     Electric and is much more restrictive (using package `texmathp'
+     with language "TeX macro").
+
+   * Easier installation despite many additional features.
+
+   * Supports more characters.
+
+   * Nicer grid, info in echo area.
+
+   * Better cooperation with packages: `vc' (check-out does not convert
+     characters), `reftex' (no strange characters `\237', help with
+     label creation), `auctex', `ispell', `font-latex' (no annoyances
+     with `\exists').
+
+   * Safer use of executables.
+
+   * The code has completely changed.  You have to redo your
+     installation.

+
+Wishlist: Additional Token Languages
+------------------------------------
+
+   Making a contribution here would require just a basic knowledge of
+Emacs and X-Symbol.  In fact, I would do the non-trivial part of the
+Emacs Lisp part (*note Extending X-Symbol::.) for general-interest
+token languages (e.g., AmsTeX).
+
+   It is likely that this would require additional fonts: available
+fonts (e.g., IPA font), hand-crafted, or generated (*note Wishlist
+Fonts::.).
+
+
+File: x-symbol.info,  Node: Wishlist Fonts,  Next: Wishlist Emacs,  Prev: Wishlist Languages,  Up: Wishlist
+
+Wishlist: Generated Fonts
+-------------------------
+
+   One direction of font generation would be from `.bdf' or `.pcf' font
+files to Windows fonts to get rid of the limited support for XEmacs on
+Windows (*note Requirements::.).  If you have successfully converted
+X-Symbol's fonts from the Unix format to the Windows format (via
+`bdftofon' or whatever) or if you have free and real Latin-N fonts for
+Windows, please *let me know*!  I would also appreciate if you would
+actively try to get those missing Windows fonts.
+
+   Solofo Ramangalahy suggests to automatically generate the `.bdf'
+fonts from other sources.  This would have various advantages:
+
+   * We could easily create different sizes for our symbol font.
+
+   * It would be quite simple to create a `.bdf' font for AmsTeX
+     macros, calligraphical letters etc, which would be displayed as
+     X-Symbol characters by package X-Symbol.
+
+   * We could easily create different sizes for our symbol font.
+
+   Solofo has worked on Postscript fonts.  Although the results are good
+for big sizes, this cannot replace bdf fonts for "small" sizes like 14.
+Besides, the X font server is not very good for postscript fonts
+(compared with ATM where you have anti-aliasing for example).  Now that
+XEmacs run under Windows, it may be that the result is better under
+Windows than under Unix.  This has not been tested.
+
+   An other possibility is to use true type fonts as true type font
+servers can achieve better results with good hinted fonts.  This has
+not been done yet.
+
+   There are also some problems which are not optimally solved in the
+current xsymb font either:
+
+   * Different TeX macros (same appearance, different TeX class =
+     different spacing) use the same MetaFont character, e.g., `\dagger'
+     and `\dag'.  Therefore, we need different X11 characters for them.
+
+   * Some Ascii characters have a special meaning in TeX.  The
+     corresponding MetaFont character is therefore produced by a TeX
+     macro, e.g., `{' by `\{'.  We need a X11 character which looks
+     similar to the character but not exactly like it.
+
+   We could ask the question whether we should really distinguish the
+characters by appearance...we have the minibuffer info for the X-Symbol
+character anyway....  Here are the options:
+
+   - distinguished by size/underlining/miscellaneous (currently used),
+
+   - distinguished by different spacing (my current favorite),
+
+   - not distinguished
+
+   Solofo Ramangalahy originally though of generating the `.bdf' fonts
+out of TeX fonts (`.mf', `.pk') by `mftobdf' of SeeTeX, which can be
+found at `CTAN/dviware/seetex/' among others distributions having this
+tool.  He dropped this idea for the following reason:
+
+     The created fonts need some correction by hand, since it's
+     difficult to make good fonts at small size.  MF fonts were created
+     to be printed at high resolutions (in the MetaFont book, cheapo is
+     200 pixel per inch, resolution of screens are around 100 pixel per
+     inch).  The parameters `blacker', `fillin' and `o_correction' are
+     not sufficient for tuning the computer modern fonts at low
+     resolutions (they will not do the job of hints of a postscript
+     font).

+
+Wishlist: Changes in Emacs/XEmacs
+---------------------------------
+
+   Changes in Emacs and/or XEmacs would improve package X-Symbol, too:
+
+   * In Emacs: a package system similar to XEmacs' one.  The
+     installation would be easier.
+
+   * The package `ispell' assumes the buffer contents to be the same as
+     the file contents and does not provide any hook to fix this.  This
+     should be fixed in `ispell' (it will be better in Emacs-21.4),
+     *Note Miscellaneous Packages::.
+
+   * Some versions control commands turn off `font-lock'.  This should
+     be changed.
+
+   * Provide a face property `raise': we wouldn't need extra fonts for
+     super- and subscripts.  Emacs: it's already a display property,
+     make it a face property, too (or make `font-lock' set properties
+     other than faces).  XEmacs: no such property, yet.
+
+   * You are sometimes unnecessarily asked (because X-Symbol will
+     encode the corresponding characters anyway) for a safe coding
+     system.  In Emacs (will be fixed in Emacs-21.4) for non-default
+     Latin characters.  In XEmacs, for all non-default characters if
+     you use package `latin-unity' (*note File IO Packages::.).
+
+   * In Emacs, will be fixed in 21.4.  Using `isearch' and the input
+     method Grid would not work.
+
+   * In XEmacs, fixed in 21.X.  In `after-insert-file-functions', there
+     should be a possibility to get to know the start position of the
+     region which is inserted.  If `insert-file-contents' is called with
+     argument `replace' being non-`nil', it is not always point.
+
+   * In Emacs and XEmacs, will be fixed in Emacs-21.4.  Make
+     possibility to change buffers in `write-region-annotate-functions'
+     official, see *Note Alt Auto Conversion::, have a way to get the
+     original buffer.
+
+   * Since `font-lock' uses duplicable text properties in some cases, I
+     need a function like `insert-buffer-substring-without-extents'.
+     (Currently, I remove the extents afterwards, which looks slow for
+     me.)
+
+   * In XEmacs.  Run hooks in `post-command-hook' even if command exits
+     with an error or quit (as it is in Emacs) or having some
+     `post-error-or-quit-hook'.  *Note Nomule Problems::.
+
+   * In XEmacs.  There are some bugs in package `custom'/`widget'
+     (XEmacs-21.0-b59) which are visible during the customization of
+     X-Symbol.

+
+Wishlist: Changes in LaTeX
+--------------------------
+
+   Changes in LaTeX, especially `inputenc.sty', would improve package
+X-Symbol, too:
+
+   * To make the definition of the character U00B5 consistent with
+     Unicode, `inputenc.sty' should define the character to stand not
+     for the token `\mu' (U03BC is the right character), but for an
+     extra token, e.g., something like `\textmicro'.  X-Symbol uses
+     `\mathmicro' here in order to avoid changing `\mu' to the
+     character U00B5 if you have chosen to store 8bit characters.
+
+   * Use same encoding for both text and math, i.e. use `periodcentered'
+     for both `\textperiodcentered' (the default) and `\cdot'.  At
+     least provide text-and-math versions for characters where no
+     alternative is more obvious than the other.  If that is not
+     possible, always choose text mode except for `\lnot', `\pm',
+     `\times' and `\division': use `\textonesuperior' for U00B9,
+     \texttwosuperior for U00B2, and `\textthreesuperior' for U00B3.
+
+   * The TeX macros `\textcent', `\textcurrency', `\textbrokenbar',
+     `\textyen' are defined as not available with OT1 and T1 font
+     encoding.  This should be changed.

+
+Various Projects for X-Symbol
+-----------------------------
+
+   The following suggestions seem to be useful, though not essential:
+
+   * It would be nice if we could print the buffer contents.
+     Currently, you see strange characters instead X-Symbol's own
+     characters.
+
+     Printing non-standard fonts is only possible via the Emacs package
+     `ps-print'.  A newer version of `ps-print' might be probably
+     already capable of doing it.  Thus, you are encouraged to help the
+     XEmacs team updating this package.

+
+Rejected Suggestions for X-Symbol
+---------------------------------
+
+   The following suggestions seem to be not useful enough to be worth
+the additional effort and increased package size.  I might be convinced
+otherwise by patches (i.e., code, not text), though:
+
+   * It would be nice if X-Symbol would replace the token with the last
+     character of the token if this is possible (*note Input Method
+     Token::.), not just with the next character.  Well, during typing,
+     this is not really annoying and after a while, you will use input
+     method Token only for very short tokens.

+
+Open Questions
+==============
+
+   This section lists some minor open questions.
+
+   * Loading file `x-symbol.el' will initialize package X-Symbol (via
+     function `x-symbol-initialize'), since all functions will need the
+     initialization.  In my opinion, this is no problem, since all
+     customization options are defined an other files which do not
+     require file `x-symbol.el'.  Thus, customizing package X-Symbol
+     will not initialize package X-Symbol.
+
+     The alternative would be to call function `x-symbol-initialize' in
+     every function which can be autoloaded.  This seems quite tedious
+     to me.  Also, I do not see a reason not to call
+     `x-symbol-initialize' top-level in file `x-symbol.el'.  If I am
+     wrong here, please let me know (with an explanation).
+     Batch-compilation might be an issue...
+
+   * When is necessary to set `x-symbol-auto-conversion-method' to
+     `slowest'?  Of course, it is only necessary when using `crypt'.
+     Is the other necessary condition to use the computer pool of the
+     University of Edinburgh?

+Acknowledgments
+===============
+
+   Stefan Monnier did many of the changes necessary for porting
+X-Symbol to Emacs-21.  Fortunately, he not only changed X-Symbol to use
+a quite different API on Emacs for things like charsets and menus, he
+also made the necessary changes in Emacs itself.  Before that, Sang-Min
+Lee started porting X-Symbol to Emacs-20.4, which was important for
+moving the status of the Emacs port of X-Symbol from "todo" to "in
+work".
+
+   David Kastrup demonstrated that the old way of encoding characters to
+TeX macros generally inhibited ligatures and kerns, i.e., it was worse
+than expected.  He also discussed the details of how to do the encoding
+and decoding right.  Christophe Raffalli suggested to use a decode
+method which can be used for a larger class of token languages.  He
+also proved that it is faster.
+
+   Package `math-mode' by Renaud Marlet and the extension of it by
+Julian Bradfield gave the basic idea for the following features:
+supporting TeX's math macros, input methods token, context/electric,
+super-/subscript support.  The shell script `makesub' is a merge and
+change of the scripts `makesupers' and `makesub' by Julian.
+
+   The font `xsymb0', which is distributed with this package, is a
+minor modification (appearance) of the Adobe symbol font, thanks to its
+non-restrictive copyright.  You may use the Adobe font instead.  The
+special images are from package `frame-icon'.
+
+   The idea for Help during an X-Symbol key sequence is from package
+`x-compose'.  The general idea for showing some info in the echo area
+is from package `eldoc'.  The trick which stops `expand-abbrev' is from
+package `mail-abbrevs'.  The idea for
+`x-symbol-image-cache-directories' is from package `fast-lock'.  The
+code for image command parsing is influenced by some code in package
+`font-lock'.  The code around `x-symbol-image-delete-extents' is based
+on some code in package `bib-cite'.
