-The Emacs Lisp code for input methods for various international

-separate tar file because it amounts to a significant fraction of the
-size of the distribution.  This tar file is called leim-M.N.tar.gz,
-with the same version number as Emacs, and it unpacks into the

-Once you have unpacked the Leim tar file into the Emacs source tree,
