I did ask on taxhax.
What is wrong with this code:
\magnification 1200
\input eplain
\beginpackages
\usepackage[applemac]{fontenc}
\endpackages
théorie
\end
</pre></blockquote><pre wrap="">`applemac` is an `inputenc`; `T1` (aka Cork) or `OT1` (aka Knuth) are
`fontenc`s. Besides, neither `inputenc` nor `fontenc` work on Plain,
afaik. The correct call should be
```
\beginpackages
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\endpackages
```
I've been planning on making inputenc/fontenc available on Plain by
extending somewhat `miniltx.sty`, but then I realized that goal may
require reimplementing LICR (LaTeX's Internal Code Representation), or
going straight to Unicode; and then, life is complicated.
There `plnfss` comes in handy. Replace the above with
```
\input plnfss
\setfont{T1}{lmr}{m}{n}
```
and try again.
This trick should also set up LaTeX commands to combine boldface with
italics, etc.; and if your input encoding is, say, Latin1, you are all
set. No need for backslash constructions.
Good luck, and happy plnfssing!
