Here is the installed TeX & Metafont hierarchy (as of 31dec93) that
we have been working on. Please send comments to mackay@cs.washington.edu,
unixtex@u.washington.edu, and kb@cs.umb.edu.
(Especially if you try to actually install TeX like this!)
First, pick a root directory for the library files:
TEXMFROOT = /usr/local/lib/texmf
(Or, in make variable terms: $(datadir)/texmf.)
All the files are installed relative to $TEXMFROOT. Top-level directories:
bibtex -- see below
fonts for these
tex three
mf -- utility MF sources
({plain, expr, null, io, slant, modes, ...}.mf)
ini -- .base, .fmt, .pool
dvips -- only if you have a PostScript printer, naturally
In general, where possible, the same setup as ctan is clearly a win.
Under bibtex:
bib (xampl.bib & some of Nelson's bib files)
bst (at least standard and semi-standard)
doc (btxbst.doc, btxdoc.*, btxhak.tex)
Under dvips, have the .pro/.ps/psfonts.map files.
Under tex, at least:
plain ({plain, manmac, null, plain, story, testfont, webmac}.tex,
perhaps also texinfo.tex, eplain.tex, other single-file sources)
latex (with subdirectories base/ for M&S's files, and contrib/ for
other people's styles)
tugboat (tugboat.cmn, tugboat.sty, etc.)
mft (*.mft)
Also under tex/ would go many other things:
dvips (rotate.tex, epsf.sty, etc.)
texdraw
musictex
...
Having a whole separate tree for the utility MF sources seems pointless,
since there are so few of them. Most .mf files go under fonts/.
Under fonts:
<source>/<typeface>/
for <source> in public, adobe, ams, bitstream, urw, ...
for public/<typeface> in cm, concrete, punk, ...
for ams/<typeface> in euler, msym, ...
for adobe/<typeface> in times, palatino, avantgarde, ...
Under .../<source>/<typeface>/
src/*.mf
tfm/*.tfm
vf/*.vf
afm/*.afm
pk/$MAKETEX_MODE (including pseudo-modes for gsrenderfont, pstopk, gsftopk)
type1/*.{pfa,pfb,gsf}
truetype/whatever
For example:
/usr/local/lib/texmf/fonts/public/cm/pk/cx/cmr10.300pk
/usr/local/lib/texmf/fonts/public/sauter/src/b-cmbx.mf
/usr/local/lib/texmf/fonts/adobe/utopia/type1/putr.pfa
All the names which can be matched by the paths you actually use need to
be unique. If you have two 300dpi devices, say `cx' and `qms', you can
set their PK paths for dvips in their printer-specific configuration
file. Conceivably you could instead make the default path include
`$MAKETEX_MODE' (kpathsea sets this as it runs), but I'm not quite sure
what all the ramifications of that are.
Here are default variable values that go with the above:
TEXMFROOT = /usr/local/lib/texmf
% Read all relevant configuration files along this path, not just the first.
TEXCONFIG = .:~:$TEXMFROOT
% Although it's pointless to search the adobe, bitstream, etc. directories
% for Metafont sources, we want at least ams/ and public/, and unknown others.
MFINPUTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/mf:$TEXMFROOT/fonts//src//
TEXINPUTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/tex//
TEXFORMATS = .:$TEXMFROOT/ini
MFBASES = .:$TEXMFROOT/ini
TEXPOOL = .:$TEXMFROOT/ini
MFPOOL = .:$TEXMFROOT/ini
% Fonts for everyone.
TFMFONTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/fonts//tfm
VFFONTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/fonts//vf
PKFONTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/fonts//pk//
% .bib and .bst files.
BIBINPUTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/bibtex/bib
BSTINPUTS = .:$TEXMFROOT/bibtex/bst
% PostScript prologues and downloadable fonts.
PSHEADERS = .:$TEXMFROOT/dvips:$TEXMFROOT/fonts//type1

# The 00[TFM.VF,XDVI] directories are "accelerators" where links

# The 00PK directory is where MakeTeXPK stores its
# output. It must therefore be in both XDVI and DVIPS paths.
# It can also be used as an "accelerator" directory for
# links to frequently used PK files. But don't store write-white
# fonts there unless you are unlucky enough to have a write-white
# printer.
#
# XDVIFONTS takes write-white fonts from the ricoh set
# but since we don't have to worry about write-white printers
# any more, the ricoh directories contain only resolutions
# below 360 dpi. Above that it doesn't really matter very much
# when all you are concerned with is screen preview.
# Don't leave out the ${BM} part of the XDVI path if type1
# fonts are in use.
# NOTE: Locally, if we decide to use MakeTeXPK at all with XDVI,
# we will set it to produce fonts for the hardcopy printer only

This sets up the common root "texmf" for both TEXROOT and MFROOT,
but puts both TEXROOT and MFROOT into the environment. Saves
much typing.
[TEX,MF]POOL really don't need a separate path, since it is
only in a run of ini[tex,mf] that they are ever likely to be
needed. So TEXFORMATS and MFBASES is the obvious place.
For BM I have changed from the specific "ps2pk" to a more general
"ps-to-pk" because I sometimes find that pfb2mf->METAFONT->pk works
better than ps2pk for a screen image.
