:Abstract:  Obsolete package for Greek in text.

News
====

The `lgrx` package is obsoleted by greek-fontenc_ and greek-inputenc_.

:2013-05-28: The new package greek-fontenc_ provides a comprehensive LGR
             font encoding file ``lgrenc.def``, that supersedes both this
             bundles ``lgrxenc.def`` and the minimal ``lgrenc.def``
             that used to be part of babel-greek_

:2013-05-28: The file ``lgrenc.dfu`` (support for Unicode input) moved to
             the greek-inputenc_ package.

:2013-06-03: ``alphabeta.sty`` enables Unicode input in math mode,

             ``textalpha.sty`` and ``alphabeta.sty`` require ``lgrenc.def``
             from greek-fontenc_ instead of ``lgrxenc.def``,

             ``lgrxenc.def`` now loads ``lgrenc.def`` and adds some
             backwards compatibility definitions.

:2013-09-13: ``alphabeta.sty`` and ``textalpha.sty`` moved to greek-fontenc_
             and now also support XeTeX/LuaTeX.
