+* Complex Text Layout support libraries

+Emacs needs the optional libraries "m17n-db", "libm17n-flt", "libotf"
+to correctly display such complex scripts as Indic and Khmer.
+On some systems, particularly GNU/Linux, these libraries may be
+already present or available as additional packages.  Note that if
+there is a separate `dev' or `devel' package, for use at compilation
+time rather than run time, you will need that as well as the
+corresponding run time package; typically the dev package will contain
+header files and a library archive.  Otherwise, you can download and
+build libraries from sources.
+
+The sources of these libraries are available by anonymous CVS from
+cvs.m17n.org.
