SYNOPSIS
	   use Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG;  # imports just like 'use Encode' would, plus extended options

	   while ($line = <>) { 	       # maps the ArabTeX notation for Arabic into the Latin symbols

	       print encode 'utf8', decode 'zdmg', $line;	 # 'ZDMG' alias 'ArabTeX-ZDMG'
	   }

	   # ArabTeX lower ASCII transliteration <--> Latin phonetic transcription, ZDMG style

	   $string = decode 'ArabTeX-ZDMG', $octets;
	   $octets = encode 'ArabTeX-ZDMG', $string;

DESCRIPTION
       ArabTeX is an excellent extension to TeX/LaTeX designed for typesetting the right-to-left scripts of the Orient. It comes up with very
       intuitive and comprehensible lower ASCII transliterations, the expressive power of which is even better than that of the scripts.

       Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG implements the rules needed for proper interpretation of the ArabTeX notation of Arabic into the phonetic
       transcription in the ZDMG style.  The conversion ifself is done by Encode::Mapper, and the user interface is built on the Encode::Encoding
       module.

       Relevant guidance is given in Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX, from which this module inherits. The transformation rules are, however, quite
       different ;)
