package.

Version:  3.89 2023-05-11
License:  lppl1.3

Summary description:  Multilingual support for LaTeX, LuaLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and Plain TeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 Changes in version 3.89 are described in:

 https://latex3.github.io/babel/news/whats-new-in-babel-3.89.html

 Here is a summary:

 * Deprecating \SetCase, \aliasshorthands, and 'strings' package
   option in the manual.

 * The manual has been split in two documents: 'babel.pdf' is the
   user guide, and 'babel-code.pdf' is the code.

 * Alternative syntax to pass 'modifiers' to babel languages.

 * Code cleaned up: babel.def has been shortened dramatically,
   and babel.sty is a bit smaller.
