Hello,
I'm sorry, but this isn't the new PasTeX 1.4 version. :-(
PasTeX 1.4 is still not finished (it's in beta stage, but
there are still some bugs to fix), but as soon as its ready,
it will also appear on such a Fish-CD.
Ok, this isn't PasTeX 1.4, but what's the hell is it??
Based on the programs of PasTeX 1.3 and many utilities
ported from various persons (thanks!) to the Amiga, it's
a hopefull complete and free TeX installation for all
C= Amiga computers.
What's new from PasTeX 1.3:
- Slight new DVIprint version 1.19.
It now works with 48pin printers.
(Please ignore the ß-version message :)
- New initex/virtex programs.
Fixed two small (?) bugs and compiled with SAS/C 6.3.
There is a 68020 version of initex/virtex too.
This version does't need a 881 FPU! So, it should work
on A1200 too.
- New macro packages.
- More fonts.
- ...
- Many TeX utilities ported from various other persons.
I've get the archives from AMINET and included it in
this TeX installation. The original archives can be
found in TeX/Archives.
What will be new in PasTeX 1.4:
ShowDVI:
- Much better (2.0) look
- Localized
- AmigaGuide help
- ScreenMode requester
- Window on the workbench (or every other PubScreen)
- DVI-file cache
- Needs much less Chip-Ram
- New bugs (uhmm.. :)
- ...
DVIprint:
- Fixed some bugs
- Localized
- New IFF save routine
- New printer entries in DVIprint.printers
- GUI window (with MUI, but CLI version works also without MUI)
- 600dpi LaserJet4 mode
- ...
SpecialHost:
- New GUI, new draw modes, ...
When will PasTeX 1.4 be released?
...can't say. Depends on the speed I find some annoying bugs
and on the time I have. I think it should be finished in 2-3 month.
Happy TeX'ing,
