+
+===============================================================================
+1. Introduction							*russian-intro*
+
+Russian language is supported perfectly well in Vim.  You can type and view
+Russian text just as any other, without the need to tweak the settings.
+
+===============================================================================
+2. Russian keymaps					       *russian-keymap*
+
+To switch between languages you can use your system native keyboard switcher,
+or use one of the Russian keymaps, included in the Vim distribution.  For
+example,
+>
+    :set keymap=russian-jcukenwin
+<
+In the latter case, you can switch between languages even if you do not have
+system Russian keyboard or independently from a system-wide keyboard settings.
+See 'keymap'.  You can also map a key to switch between keyboards, if you
+choose the latter option.  See |:map|.
+
+For your convenience, to avoid switching between keyboards, when you need to
+enter Normal mode command, you can also set 'langmap' option:
+>
+    :set langmap=ФИСВУАПРШОЛДЬТЩЗЙКЫЕГМЦЧНЯ;ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ,
+    фисвуапршолдьтщзйкыегмцчня;abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
+
+This is in utf-8, you cannot read this if your 'encoding' is not utf-8.
+You have to type this command in one line, it is wrapped for the sake of
+readability.
+
+===============================================================================
+3. Localization							 *russian-l18n*
+
+If you wish to use messages, help files, menus and other items translated to
+Russian, you will need to install the RuVim Language Pack, available in
+different codepages from
+
+    http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/ruvim/
+
+Make sure that your Vim is at least 6.2.506 and use ruvim 0.5 or later for
+automatic installs.  Vim also needs to be compiled with |+gettext| feature for
+user interface items translations to work.
+
+After downloading an archive from RuVim project, unpack it into your
+$VIMRUNTIME directory.  We recommend using UTF-8 archive, if your version of
+Vim is compiled with |+multi_byte| feature enabled.
+
+In order to use the Russian documentation, make sure you have set the
+'helplang' option to "ru".
+
+===============================================================================
+4. Known issues						       *russian-issues*
+
+-- If you are using Russian message translations in Win32 console, then
+   you may see the output produced by "vim --help", "vim --version" commands
+   and Win32 console window title appearing in a wrong codepage.  This problem
+   is related to a bug in GNU gettext library and may be fixed in the future
+   releases of gettext.
