Description This file contains the necessary and supplementary data for typesetting documents in Italian with babel as the language manager. It defines the infix words, the date in various formats. Optionally lets the user activate a number of shorthands to perform routine frequent tasks by means of the active character " that can be freely activated and deactivated. It defines an intelligent mathematical comma that recognises if it has to perform as a punctuation mark or as a decimal separator. It defines an 'english" environment that deactivates the intelligent comma functionality, but it is the user responsibility to use the decimal point in any fractional numerical string. Another user command activates or deactivates some commands to supply a minimum of the performance that is fully provided by the siunitx package and similar ones. The file allows using babel also when a document is typeset with XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. The documentation that is provided by running LaTeX on the italian.dtx file provides full documentation of every facility provided by the italian.ldf file.
