                             ArabTeX Version 3.10
			     ====================
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
	The ArabTeX package is distributed as one of the following 
	binary files:

	arabtex.zip     for PC users:
			The ArabTeX package in compressed ZIP format. 
			Unpack with (PK)UNZIP as a directory tree.

	arabtex.tar.Z   for UNIX users:
			The ArabTeX package in compressed tar format. 
			Unpack as a directory tree.

	In addition, there may be ASCII files "apatch.sty", "hepatch.sty"
	with last minute corrections. These are not difference files; 
	just put them on the TEXINPUT path.
	
	Depending on the server there may also be the unpacked files.
