This is TeX,-tip-and-emacs in view mode; [Up]


Date: Sun 18-May-1989 15:37:45 From: Unknown Subject: TeX, tip and (foreign) emacs Has someone build TeX (LaTeX) with larger main memory allocation? My documents contain lots of tables, and won't compile in the default 64K words. If so, I'd appreciate getting a copy of it. Incidentally, what are the .places and .list files that proliferate in my subdirectories? Among the things I have noticed while playing with 0.9 is that the terminal does very poor vt100 emulation. On a VMS system, in emacs, ^P does not work in vt100 mode; in VT102 mode, it works but a lot of other things don't (eg. ^O). I also could not get tip to accept stdin (i.e. take typed text from tty and route it to /dev/cua); however cu did work. While I haven't yet looked closely at Kermit to determine why send and receive fail, the connect section works quite nicely, though. This may make my tip problems a moot issue. It seems to me that Terminal does not process WinLocX and WinLocY. My terminal always starts up in the same place. I am also at a loss to understand why Csh and Terminal cannot be combined into a single application (except because this is new software). The ability to cut copy and paste out of the terminal (and maybe backscroll and log output) would also be quite nice to have. /ivo >From: flur@gt-eedsp.UUCP (Peter W. Flur)
