== PURPOSE ==
This bundle is an extension to the babel package for multilingual
typesetting. It provides all necessary macros, definitions and settings
to typeset German documents. The bundle includes support for the
traditional and reformed German orthography as well as for the Austrian
and Swiss (standard) varieties of German.
== CONTENTS ==
The bundle consists of the following files:
* german.ins (installation file to unpack the language definition
files)
* germanb.dtx (packed language definition files and
documentation for the traditional [1901--1996] orthography)
* ngermanb.dtx (packed language definition files and
documentation for the reformed [1996 ff.] orthography)
* germanb.pdf: unpacked documentation for germanb.ldf (support
for traditional orthography)
* ngermanb.pdf: unpacked documentation for ngermanb.ldf (support
for new orthography)
* README (this file)
== INSTALLATION ==

ngerman.ldf, ngermanb.ldf, nswissgerman.ldf and swissgerman.ldf)
to a location where TeX can find them
