- Moooo... ( hi :) )
- This binary distribution for Linux is compiled using web2c V6.0 (which is
- the most recent TeX distribution for UNIX(tm) system as of Feb 1994, I think).
- Gcc version 2.5.5 was used with "-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -m486" option,
- on my 386/25 machine.
-
- LaTeX is the most recent version, which is LaTeX2e (for more informations,
- please read "The LaTeX Companion" by Goosens/Mittlebach/Samarin - support
- LaTeX3 project by purchasing the book. Half of the royalty goes to this
- project).
-
- Dvips is version 5.526a. Default font resolution is 300dpi.
- Edit the file, /usr/TeX/lib/texmf/dvips/config.ps properly if you
- want to use other resolutions (ex 600dpi).
- If proper PK fonts do not exist under /usr/TeX/lib/texmf/fonts directory,
- MakeTeXPK will generate PK fonts of the required resolution under
- /usr/TeX/lib/texmf/fonts/tmp/pk. Move those PK fonts to the appropriate place
- (some directory under /usr/TeX/lib/texmf/fonts), if you are going to use
- them regularly.
-
- I also compiled some other utilities such as :
- xdvi, dvi2tty, detex, tgrind, makeindex.
- I believe that they are also the most recent versions as of Feb 94.

-
- NOTE : Do *not* set the environment variables such as XDVIFONTS,
- PKFONTS, and etc., unless they are *really* necessary.
- If you have to set them - you understand what you are doing -
- don't forget to add PK fonts directory of this this distribution
- to your environment variables (most people won't need to do this).
- Xdvi and dvips in this distribution work just fine without
- setting any environment variables in your shell.
- If xdvi still calls MakeTeXPK, check whether you are using the
- xdvi in this distribution.
-
- Please send an e-mail to me (wjin@cs.uh.edu), if you find any problems
- with this binary distribution or if you have suggestions.

- Moooooo..... ( thank you :) )
