A LaTeX 2.09 package for teTeX-0.4
===========================================================================
*** This package is NOT yet supported by Thomas Esser, it's work in progress
*** If you have any questions/suggestions/bug reports, please contact
*** Gregor Hoffleit <flight@mathi.uni-heidelberg.de>
The current version of LaTeX is 2e, LaTeX 2.09 is obsolete. 2e incorporates
an 2.09 compatibility mode, which works well for most old documents but not
all. This package contains a LaTeX 2.09 plug-in for teTeX 0.4.
===========================================================================
Features:
===========================================================================
* LaTeX 2.09 as of March 25, 1992
* PS font support in latex209/dvips
* NEXTSTEP font encoding scheme support in next.sty (latex209/misc)
===========================================================================
Prerequisites:
===========================================================================
- teTeX-0.4
===========================================================================
Installation:
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
a) If you haven't yet installed teTeX-0.4
===========================================================================
- replace teTeX's install.sh script by install209.sh, e.g.
mv install.sh ..../teTeX-0.4/distrib/.
- move goodies/latex209.tar.gz into the goodies/ directory of your teTeX
installation package, e.g.
mv goodies/latex209.tar.gz ..../teTeX-0.4/distrib/goodies/.
- Install teTeX as described in INSTALL.bin (don't forget to select the
`latex209' package in `goodies')
- after install.sh has finished, `mv' the included texconfig and latex209
into teTeX's binary directory (replacing bin/ARCHDIRECTORY with your
binary directory, e.g. `bin/mab-nextstep3' or just `bin'),
mv texconfig latex209 TETEXDIR/bin/ARCHDIRECTORY/.
and run again texhash and texconfig:
texhash
texconfig
===========================================================================
b) manual installation (teTeX-0.4 is already installed)
===========================================================================
- unpack goodies/latex209.tar.gz
gzip -dc latex209.tar.gz | tar -xvpf -
(if the `p' doesn't work for your tar, set your umask to 0 before
unpacking)
- move the directories into their place in the teTeX tree (replace
TETEXDIR with the place where your teTeX lives):
mv teTeX/texmf/doc/latex209 TETEXDIR/texmf/doc/.
mv teTeX/texmf/tex/latex209 TETEXDIR/texmf/tex/.
- `mv' the included texconfig and latex209 into teTeX's binary directory
(replacing bin/ARCHDIRECTORY with your binary directory, e.g.
`bin/mab-nextstep3' or just `bin'),
mv texconfig latex209 TETEXDIR/bin/ARCHDIRECTORY/.
and run again texhash and texconfig:
texhash
texconfig
===========================================================================
A) Hints
===========================================================================
As delivered in this package, latex209 will use the Babel package for
foreign language support. If you instead want to use the `plain' versions
of the hyphenation packages, replace
TETEXDIR/texmf/tex/latex209/initex/lhyphen.tex with LaTeX 2.09's
lhyphen.tex (included here within), edit accordingly, and rerun
"texconfig init" to remake the format.
===========================================================================
