+This paper charts some of the relevant aspects of

+The elements of \TeX\ have found favour with developers of other text

+an idea of its future directions in a world populated with
+many tools for document preparation, maintenance,

+abstract={GESYCOM has developped a \TeX-driver for the
+Linotype type setter LTC 300/500, which allows
+professional publishing with high quality laser technology
+and a resolution of 2540dpi. The basis of the driver
+development was to avoid any restriction in the available
+exposure device functions and technology. Moreover, all
+the exposure functions should be supplied to the user with
+special commands, (e.g. tint and pattern, transposed and
+arbitrarily rotated or electronically modified blocks).
+The PC-\TeX driver is available for MSDOS-PC's. The PC is
+directly coupled to the Linotype Laser exposure device LTC
+300/500 (without a PostScript Rip). Formatting via \TeX\ is
+achieved by means of the Linotype font metric data for
+approximately 2000 fonts. The \TeX\ mathematical fonts
+were newly digitised from Linotype in the required \TeX\
+font structure. Preview is carried out for a number of
+graphic cards using \TeX\ reference fonts and Linotype
+metrics. Proof printing is carried out in the same way on
+HP-Laserjet+ (compatible) laserprinters. With this
+PC-\TeX-driver new possibilities of high quality output
+with additional exposure functions is offered for
+the users. The type setter industry, as the place of
+production can take particular advantage of the
+\TeX-typical formula composition. In the function of a
+service industry a typesetting firm can secure for itself

+abstract={Various algorithms have been proposed for the
+difficult problem of producing aesthetically
+pleasing drawings of trees, see Reingold and Tilford
+(1981), Wetherell and Shannon (1979), but implementations
+only exist as `special purpose software', designed for
+specialenvironments. Therefore, many users resort to the
+drawing facilities available on most personal computers,
+but the figures obtained in this way still look
+`hand-drawn'; their quality is inferior to the quality
+of the surrounding text that can be realized by today's
+high quality text processing systems.
+\par
+In this paper we present an entirely new solution that
+integrates a tree drawing algorithm into one of the best
+text processing systems available. More precisely, we
+present a \TeX{} macro package Tree\TeX{} that produces a
+drawing of a tree from a purely logical description. Our
+approach has three advantages. First, labels for nodes can
+be handled in a reasonable way. On the one hand, the
+tree drawing algorithm can compute the widths of
+the labels and take them into account for
+the positioning of the nodes; on the other hand,
+all the textual parts of the document can be treated
+uniformly. Second, Tree\TeX{} can be trivially
+ported to any site running \TeX{}. Finally,
+modularity in the description of a tree and \TeX{}'s macro
+capabilities allow for libraries of subtrees and
+tree classes.
+\par
+In addition, we have implemented an option that
+produces drawings which make the structure of the trees

+title={Sweet-te{X}, a {Report}},
+author={Frank R Drake and John Derrick and Laurent
+Siebenmann},
+booktitle=texeter,
+year={1990},
+editor={Malcolm Clark},
+pages={101--102},
+publisher={Ellis Horwood},
+address={Chichester},
+abstract={Sweet-teX\ is a \TeX\ pre-processor, intended to
+make the keyboard inputting of \TeX\ simpler; in
+particular, easier for a secretary or mathematical typist
+to use, without first having to learn much about \TeX. In
+effect some sort of pre-processor is always going to be
+used for the keyboard inputing of \TeX\ (be it the
+crudest of mainframe editors).
+\par
+ Sweet-teX\ aims to use all the facilities
+of a good micro (such as the Macintosh), including
+standard word-processor facilities, together with a
+range of fonts, to allow the screen display to appear
+closer to the final intention. As far as possible, each
+command sequence and each symbol is input by a single
+keystroke, with as much mnemonic aid as possible, and
+will look on screen like the intended output.
+This is of great advantage to beginners, who do not have
+to learn command sequences, and to poor typists, who do
+not have to press so many keys; its value to the fluent
+typist who already knows \TeX\ must be judged by other
+features.
+\par
+One of these is that a syntax-checker is provided which
+checks such things as the balancing of entering and
+leaving mathematics, \TeX-nical braces $\{$, $\}$,
+and many other details, saving many \TeX\ errors.
+\par
+Another is that the screen display can be printed
+in a way which leaves out or modifies the screen
+symbols representing \TeX-nical input (such as
+enter and leave mathematics, command \hbox{sequences} and
+\TeX-nical braces), giving a pre-print which can be used
+for proof-reading (or other purposes). A \TeX\
+pre-print becomes unnecessary except for particularly
+awkward material.
+\par
+There are macro facilities which complement those in
+\TeX{}. These include `variant tags' which give very
+easy treatment of rarely met symbols, in a way which
+will at least recognizable in the pre-print, and
+correct in the final output (if \TeX\ has the symbol;
+the \AmSTeX\ extra fonts are available).
+The possibility of
+resorting to \TeX\ itself is preserved for use in the most
+difficult cases.
+\par
+There has been some evolution of Sweet-teX\ since its
+public announcement in 1986. Its system of logical
+formatting using `road-signs' is more complete, and
+invisible character trickery is no longer necessary to
+pass information from {\it MacWrite} to \TeX.
+\par
+ Sweet-teX\ has
+been in use in Leeds University Pure Mathematics
+Department and some account of its use there will be
+given, in particular the use of a TOPS network to
+transfer \dvi\ files to an IBM PC clone to print on
+an HP Laserjet.}}

+booktitle=texeter,
+year={1990},
+editor={Malcolm Clark},
+pages={159--183},
+publisher={Ellis Horwood},
+address={Chichester},
+abstract={We speak of a line-oriented
+layout when the design landmarks in documents are given in
+terms of lines of the typeset document -- lines down from the
+beginning of a paragraph, lines down from the top of the
+page, and so on. \TeX\ design specifications are normally
+made on the basis of units identifiable in the source
+document file before any typesetting takes place. This
+paper suggests several techniques for creating \TeX\ design
+layout on a line-by-line basis. We will discuss three
+examples: the use of \TeX\ in typesetting `windows' of
+space entirely enclosed within paragraphs; the creation of
+paragraph shapes for an arbitrary sequence of paragraphs;
+and the creation of a macro to identify the typeset position
+on the page. These are used to show how to design a
+page-layout system that might be suitable for a small
+newspaper or newsletter. This set of page layout macros
+illustrates the ability to continue stories several pages
+after they begin and to provide automatic forward and
+backward page references to the beginning and ending
+portions.}}

+booktitle=texeter,
+year={1990},
+editor={Malcolm Clark},
+pages={259--271},
+publisher={Ellis Horwood},
+address={Chichester},
+abstract={Metafont can be used with \TeX\ for purposes
+other than the production of ordinary alphabets or even sets of
+special symbols. Using the \TeX\ system based on the IBM 6150 (RT),
+the following functions have been implemented, employing Metafont in a
+nontraditional fashion:
+ \item{} A plotting program, which graphs sets of numeric data as
+ x-y plots or bar charts. A Metafont program is
+created to draw
+ the curves.
+ \item{} A conversion program which accepts the output of a
+ mouse-based drawing program (Gremlin), converting the drawing
+ commands into a Metafont program.
+ \item{} A conversion program which accepts the output of an
+ image processing program on the 6150 and converts
+ raster images directly into characters in pk style
+\TeX\ fonts. In each case, the strategy is to produce a
+font containing only a single (very large) character. The
+character is not a letter or even a special symbol, but is
+an entire picture (a graph, a drawing, or a bit image).
+\TeX\ knows how to deal with characters in fonts
+regardless of their size, and typesets them in the
+ordinary way. The result is a very flexible system which
+combines text, arbitrary data plots and drawings, and
+images, in a very natural and straightforward way. }}
