% myletter.tex and default.cfg are currently the only

%%Changelog:
%% 1.3c First attempt to internationalise the class
%% 1.3d myref and mymail added. I've written in comp.text.tex 
%%       that they are available but they weren't.
%%       [m]y{ref|mail} line changed
%%       Documented the fact that only A4 is supported
%%       Started cleaning up (removed unused code)
%% 1.3e Removed the german kludge. Now \usepackage{german}
%%       is the correct way to include german.sty
%%       The language-dependend stuff is moved to the cfg-file
%%       Please update your cfg-files (see default)
%%       Telefax-support added.
%%       pagestyle{headings} is working now
%% 1.3f The language-dependend stuff is now really 
%%       language-depending and not german.sty depending. It's 
%%       back in the class but may be overwritten in the cfg-file
%%       French caption are now supported, please check if they 
%%       are correct, I don't know french, just copied them from 
%%       script_l.
%%       Changed the ref-line again, it's now almost like DIN
%%       676 but suggestions to change it are in the cfg-file
%% 1.3g Changed the layout of the reference-line again:
%%       Now you have 2 standard-layouts:
%%       without refdatename:
%%           4 columns with yref ymail myref mymail
%%       Each .25 textwidth
%%       with refdatename:
%%           5 columns with yref ymail myref mymail refdate
%%	You should *not* use refdatename after a ref-item
%%      is defined.
%%	When there is no ref-item, the date is shown behind
%%      the subject-entry
%%      (When you have a ref-entry but no refdatename, the
%%      date will appear in the rightbox. You may change this
%%      in the cfg-file

%\usename{default}
% Specify the name of the .cfg-file

\opening{Dear friends,}
%
this is a demonstration-letter for my new myletter-class. It is 
based on letter.cls and liletter (Stefan Lindner Letter Style, 
distributed with Atari \TeX) with some additions from 
script\_l.sty. (I'm borrowing where I can)

It supports everything needed like your-ref, your-mail, my-ref, 
my-mail, subject and of course configurable name and signature.
(Version 1.3g: Layout changed)

Everything site-depending like header, footer or returnaddress 
went into a .cfg-file. The \verb|\usename| command selects a 
configuration file and enables you do have different 
information for business and privat letters. You may even set up 
a .cfg-file for your husband.

Obsolete Commands:

The \verb|\address| and \verb|\locations| commands which 
used to set \verb|\fromaddress| and \verb|fromlocation| are no 
longer defined because they were never used. Define your address 
and location in the \verb|.cfg| file which is more flexible.

Does anyone use the \verb|makelabels| feature which still lurks 
around in this class? I would like to remove it in the 1.4 
release (due in december 1994) unless there is someone who needs 
it. (It is completely untested, I don't even know how it is 
supposed to work)

Language-dependend captions are now available in English, German 
and French. Other languages are supported using the cfg-file.

Deficiencies:

Only DIN A4 paper is supported now. This may change in future 
versions.
