      This package enables (La)TeX users to typeset words or phrases
      (elatex needed) in Syriac (Aramaic) using the
      Serto-alphabet. The package includes a preprocessor written in
      Python (>= 1.5.2) in order to deal with the right-to-left
      typesetting for those who do not want to use elatex and to
      choose the correct letter depending on word context
      (initial/medial/final form). Detailed documentation and examples
      are included.
