Dear List, Dear Vladimir,

Since you have helped me so generously before, I want to present a new pro=
blem I 
can't seem to solve, not before saying "thank you" again for that former a=
dvice that 
kept my problems at bay until right now.

I would like to use three languages in one unicode document, preferably wi=
thout 
switching explicitly, that is, not (as I have done before) go
\russian =E2=EE=F2 =EF=EE-=F0=F3=F1=F1=EA=E8=E9
\german H=FCr D=FCtsch
\polish polska nie zgin=EA=B3a

but instead just switch languages using other unicode characters, that is =
just write 
Polsk=B9 D=FCtschland =D0=D4. 
(in Unicode) 

Since, after all, this is one of the ideas of unicode, I reckon this to be=
 possible.

I can't seem to figure how. Since this is surely not a very original quest=
ion, maybe 
somewhere there is a easy, step-by-step, introduction somewhere, which you=
 could 
point me to (I could actually even write one for dummies like myself once =
I know what 
to do).

By the way, I use Tex Live 6b (9/2001) on a win98 machine.

I've looked through all the documents I could find and tried out the unico=
de package 
(ucs) to no avail. I presume the solution to my problem is very simple -  =
can you help 
me?

Thanks sincerely, 

Ruprecht
