Overview
========

The eledmac package is for typesetting critical editions. The eledpar
package is an extension of eledmac enabling parallel typesetting in
columns or on facing pages.

Eledmac and eledpar are successors of ledmac and ledpar. Ledmac was a
LaTeX port, and extension, of the plain TeX EDMAC, TABMAC and EDSTANZA
macros.

The package is available on [CTAN](http://www.ctan.org/pkg/eledmac).

Debug and feature requests
==========================

Suggestions and bug reports are welcome.

Maïeul Rouquette is the only one maintainer. To help him in his work,
please follow these rules:

-   Go to the [issues page](https://github.com/maieul/ledmac/issues).
-   Open *one issue for each problem*, even if problems are similar.
-   Add a [minimal working
    example](http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=minxampl).
-   If your report is really a bug, Maïeul Rouquette will open a
    "branch" to solve your problem. This branch will be called
    "issueXXX", where "XXX" is the issue number.
-   Once the problem has a possible solution, Maïeul Rouquette will send
    you a zip file and ask you to test it:
    -   Download the zip file of the branch (or, if you know Git, go to
        the branch there):
        -   Go to [the project page](https://github.com/maieul/ledmac/).
        -   Choose the correct branch in the "branch" menu.
        -   Click on the cloud, in the right side.
    -   Run the `.ins` files with pdflatex, to obtain the `.sty` files.
    -   Put the `.sty` files with your test files (in the same folder).
    -   Make your report.
