title: 'The arabluatex package – README file'
---
Overview
========
This package provides for [LuaLaTeX](http://luatex.org) an
[ArabTeX](http://ctan.org/pkg/arabtex)-like interface to generate Arabic
writing from an <span style="font-variant:small-caps;">ascii</span>
transliteration. It is particularly well-suited for complex documents
such as technical documents or critical editions where a lot of
left-to-right commands intertwine with Arabic writing. arabluatex is
able to process any ArabTeX input notation. Its output can be set in the
same modes of vocalization as ArabTeX, or in different roman
transliterations. It further allows many typographical refinements. It
will eventually interact with some other packages yet to come to produce
from `.tex` source files, in addition to printed books, `TEI xml`
compliant critical editions and/or lexicons that can be searched,
analyzed and correlated in various ways.

Installation
============
1. Run `'lualatex arabluatex.ins'` to produce the `arabluatex.sty`
file;
2. To finish the installation you have to move the following files into
a directory where LaTeX can find them. See the FAQ on `texfaq.org`
at <https://texfaq.org/FAQ-inst-wlcf> for more on this:
- `arabluatex.sty`
- `arabluatex-patch.sty`
- `arabluatex.lua`
- `arabluatex_voc.lua`
- `arabluatex_fullvoc.lua`
- `arabluatex_novoc.lua`
- `arabluatex_trans.lua`
3. Additionally, those who use emacs with AUCTeX may copy
`arabluatex.el` to their `~/.emacs.d/auctex/auto` local directory.
This will enable the appropriate hooks for ArabLuaTeX in AUCTeX.
Development, Git Repository

Download the repository
-----------------------
ArabLuaTeX development is facilitated by git, a distributed version
control system. You will need to install git (most GNU/Linux
distributions package it in their repositories).
Use this command to download the repository
git clone http://git.robertalessi.net/arabluatex
A new directory named arabluatex will have been created, containing
ArabLuaTeX.
Git hosting
