  Version : 0.2.0

  Description : tdmenu offers a new menu-method for the menu package
and fvwm to beautify the nacked looking menus with
icons and sidebars in 33 languages currently.

I am using fvwm2 since 7 1/2 years and have beautified all of my menus 
with sidebars and icons.  Now I have considered to add icons and
localized Sidebars to the Debian-Menu-System.  This was done by heavy
rewriting the default /etc/menu-methods/fvwm

I do not know, whether other WindowManagers support icons or sidebars
but it can added easily at request if I know, how the menus are working.

The soucre "tdmenu" create three type of binary packages.

1)tdmenuA meta package which install ALL
2)tdmenu-common Contain the "update-tdmenus" executable and
the icons and the default english sidebars.
3)tdmanu-   Each package contain a language set since I
am sure no one like to install 39 MByte per
default.

Since I do not wat to do the job twice, the tanslations  are
taken from the "menu" package (Attention: "ku" is incomplete)

With the release 0.2.0 "tdmenu" support following 33 languages:

ar be bg ca cs da de el en eo es eu fi fr gl he hr hu id
it ja ko ku lt nb ne nl nn pt ru sv tr zh_CN

Future releases (depends on my free time) will support the rest of the
languages like:

dz km pl pt_BR ro sk th tl uk vi wo zh_TW

Note for Mentors/Developers:

I am not able to create dz (Bhutan) and km (Khmer) since it seems
there is a bug in the fontpackages any hints what can I do?

And last not least, the package will reach version 1.0.0 if
all languages supported by the "menu" package are added.

Please note:

Some Languages need work since I have not a very big experience with
fonts and in some languages they look a little bit ugly.  If you like
to see font changes in some  please let me now, WITH the
appropriated Debian font package and the name of the desired font of
a size of arround 13-17 (14) pixels.

Last note:

The package version 0.2.0 is installed on Sarge, Etch and Sid
and works (currently) properly without any errors.

Release 0.4.0 is currently in the upload and arrive in some minutes
on .  Font for Khmer is still missing.

Since I have gotten the new menu package version 2.1.32 I will
update "tdmenu" this weekend to the missing languages.

TODO:   Add infos on usefull fonts to the readme.DEBIAN file.
(For new users it is THE HELL to get the right fonts and the
right Debian packages installed)

Note:   defoma does not recognize all fonts under Sarge and Etch and
I have to add manualy "FontPath" lines to the Xorg config plus
creating the font.scaled and font.dir files.  This behaviour
show up since Debian use /usr/share/fonts/truetype and not more
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType.  All fonts in the later
directory are recognized by X and the WM the new directory only
by X-Apps.

The lines:
FontPath "/usr/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/CID"
FontPath "/usr/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/TrueType"
do not work (except for X-Apps) but the added ones:
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/alee"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-arabeyes"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/openoffice"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bengali-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-farsiweb"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-kacst"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-paktype"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/arhangai"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/arphic"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/baekmuk"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-mgopen"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/kochi"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-devanagari-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-gujarati-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-kannada-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-malayalam-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-oriya-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-punjabi-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-telugu-fonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-junicode"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-summersby"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/thryomanes"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tmuni"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/uralic"
FontPath"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/thai"
Which I generate from a script automaticaly
