[latexrefman] casing

[Vincent Belaïche]

Thank Jim for preparing the rel-note, I will upload soon.


Just to clarify a few points :


1) The current makefile 'Makefile' does not create any longer the 
Spanish subdir when you call the dist target. It used to do that, but, 
well the Spanish lacks a maintainer, so the current Makefile handles 
only the English delivery.


2) the alternative makefile 'Makefile.1' handles the 3 languages. Target 
dist will pack all 3 together with a subdir for French and a subdir for 
Spanish. The target dist-en will do the same as for target dist of 
makefile 'Makefile', dist-fr will package French alone, dist-es the 
Spanish alone. Makefile.1 has a help target to document the targets.


   Vincent.
