  Description     : LaTeX package for writing Church Slavonic texts in HIP encoding

 HIPTeX is a LaTeX package for writing Church Slavonic texts in HIP
 encoding. HIP is a system to represent Church Slavonic text using the
 standard  Cyrillic alphabet and a small number of ASCII symbols. HIP
 was  developed as part of project Pechatnyj Dvor (Printing House)
 <http://pechatnyj-dvor.narod.ru/index.html>. 

 The package includes the hipfonts style, which allows inclusion of
 Church Slavonic text in an arbitrary LaTeX document, and the hipbook
 class, which provides book definitions corresponding to the
 liturgical book conventions of the Russian orthodox church.
