+Subject: Filename compatibility between Unix TeX and Mac Textures
+
+I use both unix La/TeX and TeXtures on a Mac. I'd like to be able to
+move input files between the machines without having to edit pathnames
+in \input and \epsfbox commands. Of course, unix uses / and the Mac
+uses : in pathnames. I'd like to be able to say something like
+\platform={unix or mac} in my main file and have a macro that handles
+pathnames appropriately. Has anyone solved this problem? Thanks.

+From: cseofoghlu@bodkin.ucg.ie
+Subject: AMS-TeX amsppt.sty
+
+I have a question about the use of the AMS-TeX amsppt.sty option:
+
+We have Decus TeX (PD VMS 3.3) on out VMS (5.5-2) machine.
+AMS-TeX is set up as VMS DCL command verb.
+
+When we try and use the amsppt style in AMS-TeX it gags on the i/p file:
+
+\documentstyle{amsappt}
+\document
+.....
+.....
+\enddocument
+
+The error message is:
+ This is TeX, Version 3.1 [PD VMS 3.3/DECUS] (preloaded format=plain 90.8.25)
+ ($1$DIA4:[CSE.0020201S.USERS.0000002E]ELLONE.TEX;33
+
+ AmS-TeX - Version 2.0
+
+ COPYRIGHT 1985, 1990 - AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY
+ Use of this macro package is not restricted provided
+ each use is acknowledged upon publication.
+
+ (TEX_ROOT:[INPUTS]AMSPPT.STY;1
+ ! Undefined control sequence.
+ l.109 \footmarkcount@
+ \z@
+ ?
+
+(If one proceeds it also gags on \tenpoint:
+
+ ...more errors with footnote....
+
+ ! Undefined control sequence.
+ \tenpoint ...p 7\p@ plus3\p@ minus4\p@ \textfont@
+ \rm \tenrm \textfont@ \it ...
+ l.487 \tenpoint
+)
+
+Being more used to LaTeX I am baffled by this and would appreciate any help.
+At first glance it seems the style file is incompatible with AMS-TeX, what
+is much more likely, I feel, is that I am missing some definitions required
+before I can use the style files.
+
+Another possibility is that this STY file is incorrect (possibly the
+AMS-LaTeX version overwrote the AMS-TeX one?) I went to download a
+new copy from the archive but the distribution does not indicate which
+files are in the VMS backup archives, so I thought I'd ask first.
+
+(When investigating this problem I was confused by the difference
+between AMS-TeX and AMS-LaTeX. I believe We are using the former.
+From my reading of the documentation with AMS-LaTeX there is no
+amsppt.sty file which could have overwritten the original.)
+
+Thanks, Micheal

+Subject: problems with mfjob and dviscr in emTeX
+
+Can anyone get mfjob to work generating cmtt8 at 5pt? For me, it seems
+undecided whether to work out 300*0.625=187.5 as 187 or 188. Consequently, it
+correctly generates the font, but calls it cmtt8.188; then, dviscr refuses to
+find the font as it is looking for cmtt8.187 presumably. When I put 188 in
+the +font-sizes list, dviscr finds the font OK, but that is clearly no
+solution in general, as +font-sizes would have to list all possible numbers!
+
+I find the font sizes used by LaTeX a pain. The ones I usually generate are
+150,180,210,240,270,300,329,360,432,etc, but then LaTeX throws in odd ones
+like cmtt8 at 5pt, which fits no particular pattern. Even worse, occasionally
+we have to do magnification on a document, and this generates even odder
+sizes, even when the font only exists in mf source at 10pt. Try xxx10 at 7pt
+at magstep1. (Yes, I know LaTeX and magnification are incompatible, but that
+is the point.)

+My name is Matthew Shaw and I am working on a program that you may be

+and converts it to a Rich Text Format (RTF) File that can be read by

+program is not yet complete but would you be interested in a copy

+Subject: dc fonts
+
+I am not sure whether this is a latex3 problem or a CTAN one, so I am sending
+to both (probably the same people).
+
+Has anyone questioned the logic in having dc fonts in latex, but their tfm
+files not available on the archives (this right?)
+
+I was looking from the point of view of using emTeX and mfjob to generate
+missing fonts. The natural way to do this is to hook up mfjob to the dvi
+drivers so that they write a batch job for mfjob to generate missing fonts.
+However, to do that they need a dvi file, and to get a dvi file TeX needs the
+tfm file to be there. But to get the tfm file you need to generate the font...
+
+Could some kind soul donate the tfm files for dc fonts to CTAN? (Assuming
+anyone uses dc fonts.)

+
+It certainly is! I have just retrieved it and tested it with mfjob, and I can
+now generate the fonts on demand. Thanks.
+
+I agree with your point in another e-mail that this *should* be on the
+archive. In fact, the tfm files for cmr are there, even though they could be
+generated, and indeed emTeX even includes lots of .pk files in its
+distribution, but not the tfm and pk files for dc fonts.
+
+Perhaps these should be suggested as a "contribution" to emTeX (although they
+are of wider use, but then it would be better to make them available this way
+than not at all:-)

+ 747dpi), use
+
+ /fz:+746

+Not if hanging mfjob off dviscr/dvihplj you can't! You can't even *generate*

+
+Several kind souls did donate the .tfm files. In fact, you need to generate

+
+Well, what do you know? (I didn't know that!)

+
+Since MFjob (version 1.1l) is often called by the DVIDRV programs

+This is a `feature' of the dc fonts, which they have in common with
+the cm fonts. They tend to die at small resolutions. Usually the

+
+As I remember from somewhere, \input works on line basis, i.e. TeX starts
+reading the file when it has nothing to read on the current line. This would
+explain the behaviour you describe. TeX opens the file, then executes \end and
+never starts to read foo. It remembers that the file is open and therefore the
+file is closed before TeX terminates.
+
+Unfortunately I cannot find it in the TeXbook. I only managed to find
+information regarding \endinput on p.%47 just above Excercise%8.2.

+Subject: fontinst v1.307 beta-release
+
+I'd like to announce the beta-release of the `fontinst' font
+installation package. This package:
+
+ * reads Adobe Font Metric files.
+
+ * writes virtual fonts.
+
+ * allows multiple `raw' PS fonts per virtual font (eg ff-ligatures
+ taken from an Expert set).
+
+ * allows PostScript and Metafont fonts in the same virtual font (eg
+ Times math italic with symbols taken from CMMI).
+
+ * can generate fonts in the TeX text encoding, Extended TeX text
+ (or `Cork') encoding, or TeX math encoding.
+
+ * is written in TeX, so should run on any TeX platform with enough
+ memory.
+
+This package has been in alpha-test for about a year now, and is now
+available for beta-test in the CTAN archives in the directory
+fonts/utilities/fontinst. It is freeware.
+
+WARNING: The usual `features' of beta-test software may apply to this
+product. Your mileage may vary.

+Subject: web2c 6.0 & friends available
+
+I've released version 6.0 of web2c, a port of the basic TeX
+project web programs (TeX, Metafont, GFtoPK, etc.) to Unix,
+and my modified drivers (dvipsk and xdvik).
+
+You can get everything by ftp from:
+
+ (Boston) ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/{lib,src,web,web2c,dvipsk,xdvik}.tar.gz
+
+lib is a collection of the basic tfm, tex, mf, and bibtex files
+ (in my opinion).
+src has additional documentation, sources for some of the things
+ in lib, and a few extra programs I find especially valuable.
+
+Soon they will be available from the CTAN sites (please try them first):
+
+ (Texas) ftp.shsu.edu
+ (England) ftp.tex.ac.uk
+ (Germany) ftp.uni-stuttgart.de
+
+See the ftp retrieval instructions below for precise details.
+
+A summary of the changes is below. Send bug reports to me (I'm sure
+there will be plenty). If you want support, or if you cannot ftp, I
+suggest contacting unixtex@u.washington.edu.
+
+One change worth emphasizing: the default paths have completely changed.
+See the file kpathsea/HIER for a summary of this. The Makefile(s) and
+kpathsea/paths.h.in do the actual definitions.
+
+By the way, the new version number is 6.0 because 5.8515 was just too
+many decimal points (also running out of characters on my system V
+filesystems).
+
+The next major feature I intend to implement is a runtime configuration
+file (read by all three programs) to define paths.

+
+web2c:
+Version 6.0 (24 January 1994)
+* Default paths changed.
+* Update for TeX 3.1415, etc.
+* Change to use the kpathsea library, a la dvipsk and xdvik.
+
+* TeX's \openin command invokes MakeTeXTeX just like \input.
+
+* TeX & Metafont:
+ - 16-byte values can be dumped, thus allowing native `long' on the DEC Alpha.
+ - But 32-bit integers are used if sharable format files are desired,
+ even on 64-bit machines.
+ - Interrupts are accepted when waiting for input.
+
+* Online output support in Metafont for Regis terminals and the NeXT.
+* gftopk can handle characters with up to 100,000 rows.
+* vftovp's -charcode-format=ascii works properly.
+* patgen doesn't give bizarre numeric output where it should be text.
+
+* configuration:
+ - -lX11 is used for OpenWindows.
+ - The MakeTeX... scripts are individually selectable by default, and
+ can always be invoked if certain environment variables are set.
+ - The subdirectory trick using st_nlink can be turned off.
+
+* Makefiles:
+ - man/Makefile doesn't remove itself at `clean'.
+ - {tex,mf}/clean-tr[ia]p doesn't reinstall a {tex,mf}d.h with the test
+ constants.
+ - web2c/Makefile removes lex and yacc output at `clean'.
+ - mkdirchain invoked as an absolute filename.
+
+* web2c:
+ - sync is no longer invoked; instead the Makefiles touch texd.h and
+ mfd.h after they are finished.
+
+dvipsk:
+5.526a (24 January 1994)
+* Extra :'s in config file paths incorporate the compile-time default,
+ and extra :'s in envvars incorporate the config file path.
+* Default paths and config.ps changed.
+* -v prints the version number and exits.
+* magstep rounding consistent with xdvik.
+* MakeTeXPK.in includes gsftopk support (disabled by default), and
+ allows user envvars to override the script's value. Some default
+ values substituted from the Makefile.
+* Under -DSECURE, reading of absolute_p files is prohibited.
+
+xdvik:
+1.5 (24 January 1994)
+* Try again to make the signal handling more reliable on the Alpha.
+* Debugging option for EPS previewing.
+* Magstep rounding consistent with dvipsk.
+* xdvi -version by itself doesn't provoke a usage message.
+* Make j a synonym for j.

+ FTP INSTRUCTIONS
+
+Most people who get in touch with the Unix TeX distribution at the Univ.
+of Washington are aiming to install plain TeX, LaTeX, BibTeX, plain
+Metafont, a previewer that will work under the X windowing system, and a
+PostScript device driver. While the ftp sites listed below have just
+about everything useful for users of TeX on a variety of operating
+systems, our retrieval instructions -- intended solely for users with
+machines running Unix -- are limited to the programs mentioned above.
+
+The three ftp sites mentioned below are part of the Comprehensive TeX
+Archive Network (CTAN).
+
+ CTAN is the result of cooperative work among members of TUG,
+ DANTE [German-speaking TeX Users Group], and UKTUG [U.K. TeX
+ Users Group], under the leadership of George Greenwade, Chair
+ for TUG's Technical Working Group on TeX Archive Guidelines.
+
+ Special thanks to George Greenwade for establishing the CTAN site
+ at Sam Houston State University (US), to Rainer Schoepf for the
+ CTAN site at the University of Stuttgart (FRG), and to Sebastian Rahtz
+ for the CTAN site at Aston University (UK). These archives mirror
+ each other meticulously.

+ ftp.tex.ac.uk 134.151.44.19 tex-archive
+ ftp.uni-stuttgart.de 128.69.1.12 tex-archive
+
+Users of ftp.tex.ac.uk or ftp.uni-stuttgart.de will be able to retrieve
+the same tex-archive files, but site-specific files (i.e., the two
+mentioned in the next paragraph) may be named differently.
+
+Upon logging on (to ftp.shsu.edu), retrieve and read
+
+ README.archive-features and
+ README.site-commands
+
+to learn how to use the archive efficiently.
+
+We assume that you will have read these documents and will be able to
+use the information in them to make retrieval more convenient for yourself.
+
+ For example, by reading these files, you will learn that you will be
+ able to retrieve foo.tar.gz even if the file does not exist, because
+ the ftpd allows archiving and compressing files on the fly.
+
+In our instructions, the mode of compression used during retrieval is
+gzip. All files ending in .gz are gzipped.
+
+We encourage you to retrieve and install GNU's gunzip utility, part of
+the gzip package. Set "binary" by typing "bi" at your ftp prompt, and
+retrieve the file
+
+ ~/tex-archive/archive-tools/info-zip/gzip-<version>.tar
+
+It does a better job of compression than standard Unix compress; and it
+is (as far as is known) patent-free. It is illegal to use Unix compress
+for software on the net, because it infringes on a software patent.
+
+ To inform yourself about the new software monopolies
+ in the U.S., send mail to the
+ League for Programming Freedom:
+ lpf@uunet.uu.net
+
+
+For a basic set of input files and fonts:
+
+ ftp> cd tex-archive/systems/unix/web2c
+ ftp> bi [for binary retrieval]
+ ftp> get lib.tar.gz
+
+ This file contains a small collection of fonts (TFM files only),
+ (La)TeX macros, MF macros, and BibTeX files, enough to get
+ started. The AMS fonts and macros are included.
+
+ It unpacks into a directory named `texmf', which you will want in
+ your equivalent of /usr/local/lib -- whatever you defined as your
+ $(datadir) in the Makefiles.
+
+ The organization of the archive was debated at great length. We hope
+ it will be useful. If you don't like our organization, you should
+ move the files around as you see fit, not forgetting to redefine the
+ search paths and installation directories. The Makefiles,
+ kpathsea/HIER, kpathsea/paths.h.in, and web2c/README (``Directory
+ hierarchies'') have more tidbits of information.
+
+ We advise unpacking this and deciding on your directory structure
+ *before* doing the compilations.
+
+
+For web2c:
+
+ Special thanks here to Karl Berry, Unix System Coordinator for TUG.
+ He improves/develops/maintains web2c, modes.mf, dvipsk, and xdvik
+ (and other things not mentioned in this file). He also maintains
+ pub/tex on ftp.cs.umb.edu, which is the originating location for all
+ the files above and below.
+
+ [still in tex-archive/systems/unix/web2c]
+
+ ftp> get web.tar.gz [Knuth's WEB sources for TeX, MF, & family:
+ unpacks into ./web2c-<version>]
+
+ ftp> get web2c.tar.gz [WEB-to-C source:
+ unpacks into ./web2c-<version>]
+
+ It is important to retrieve and unpack both web.tar.gz and web2c.tar.gz.
+ They unbundle into a single directory called ./web2c-<version>.
+
+ The web2c software converts the WEB source files (in which TeX,
+ Metafont, & family are written) to C source. The input and font
+ files are needed to dump the format and base files required to run
+ plain TeX, LaTeX, and Metafont.
+
+
+
+For an X window system previewer (xdvik)
+ and PostScript device driver (dvipsk):
+
+ ftp> cd ../../dviware/xdvik
+ ftp> get xdvik.tar.gz
+ [unpacks into ./xdvik-<version>]
+
+ ftp> cd ../dvipsk
+ ftp> get dvipsk.tar.gz
+ [unpacks into dvipsk-<version>]
+
+ ftp> cd ../../fonts/cm/pk
+ ftp> get pk300.zip
+ [For write-black 300dpi devices.
+
+ The zip/unzip package is in
+ ~/tex-archive/archive-tools/info-zip.
+
+ These pk fonts are not strictly necessary;
+ dvips and xdvi can use a script `MakeTeXPK' that will
+ generate missing bitmapped fonts.]
+
+ ftp> get pk300w.zip
+ [pk300w (write-white) fonts are better with xdvi]
+
+ ftp> quit [end ftp session]
+
+
+We believe this covers the retrieval of the essential files.
+
+Each of the three packages -- web2c, xdvik, dvipsk, -- contains its own
+installation instructions. The first thing to compile is web2c (that is
+to say, both web.tar.gz and web2c.tar.gz, unpacked); begin by reading
+./web2c-<version>/web2c/README.
+
+If this is your first TeX installation, you may not find the process

+
+in practice, why not just preview the PostScript with ghostview under

+
+The best answer is `join the UK TeX Users Group'. they are holding a 2
+day conference on LaTeX2e in March, where the authors will answer all
+your questions.
+
+in practice, your VDM macros probably don't need much change. You very
+likely use the same font setup as Object Z, so you may like to look
+at the oz files in
+ftp.tex.ac.uk:/pub/archive/macros/latex2e/contrib/psnfss for an
+example of NFSS2 maths font setups. I can answer questions about
+details of that.
+
+The `features.tex' of LaTex2e is really quite detailed, in the
+meanwhile

+Subject: Irritating problem with LPS20 postscript printer.
+
+I am using dvips on a UNIX system and then printing the output on an
+LPS20 printer (which prints duplex).
+
+I have a file which contains \framebox and \rule. When printed in
+normal portrait everything is fine but if I use landscape the horizontal
+lines disappear (the verticla ones are fine).
+
+I created a postscript file and printed it first in landscape and then
+commented out the line which said landscape. The problem persisted.
+
+So I have the same code which produces different output according to the
+page orientation.
+
+If I use the A3 tray the lines appear in both portrait and landscape but the
+position on the page is of course incorrect.
+
+Does anyone know if this is a bug and is there a patch to cure it.

+Subject: CTAN calling all LaTeX style writers!! Readme!
+
+As I am sure most people know, a new version of LaTeX (LaTeX2e) is now
+in beta test, and will be released on the world in the spring. It will
+have a support policy of regular 6 monthly updates.
+
+After consultation with the LaTeX2e project team, the CTAN sites have
+decided to restructure the LaTeX area of the archives, to distinguish
+clearly between material known to work with LaTeX2e, and untested or
+imcompatible styles. We would also like to make it clear which
+packages are actively supported and documented, and which are offered
+`asis'. The final structure will therefore look like this:
+ macros
+ latex
+ core % supplied by LaTeX2e team
+ contrib
+ supported
+ other
+ latex209
+ contrib
+
+Until the spring, this will be reversed, so that macros/latex will be
+2.09, and macros/latex2e will be the beta release.
+
+Anything in latex/contrib/supported will be expected to conform to a
+minimal standard of documentation and maintenance; material in
+latex/contrib/other should have been tested with LaTex2e, but the
+authors may not wish to promise support or documentation. It is
+important to note that we are not making qualitative judgements -- we
+will continue to hold whatever authors produce and place in the public
+domain.
+
+A short guide to documentation and maintenance will be available
+shortly. Tel us if you want your name on a list to receive it.
+
+The purpose of this note is to ask style authors to consider looking
+again at their work, and checking that it works with LaTeX2e, maybe
+updating it to use the new features if necessary. Let CTAN know
+(ctan-mgr@shsu.edu), and your packages can be moved to the
+latex2e/contrib/suported tree, so that users will have a good choice
+of material at the start.
+
+If you haven't seen LaTeX2e, you can ftp it from ftp.tex.ac.uk,
+ftp.shsu.edu or ftp.dante.edu, from /tex-archive/macros/latex2e/core.
+You can get full details of the new features in `The LaTeX Companion'

+The sessions will end at 1700 on Tuesday 22nd.
+
+Travel to Warwick University
+There is an Inter-City rail service to Coventry, but from some
+locations it may be easier to travel to Birmingham initially.
+
+Journey depart arrive
+Euston to Coventry 0810 0920
+ 0840 0950
+ 0910 1025
+Manchester to Coventry 0718 0929
+ 0818 1027
+Bristol (TM) to B'ham 0714 0854 Trains from Birmingham to Coventry
+ 0830 0954 are frequent and fast (journey time
+Newcastle to B'ham 0640 0951 of 20--30 minutes, departing
+York to B'ham 0742 0951 every 10 or 15 minutes).
+
+There will be a shuttle bus service running between 1000 and 1030 for delegates
+arriving at Coventry Railway Station. The shuttle bus will also be available
+on the 22nd to take delegates back to the station.
+
+A taxi from the station to the University costs about \pounds4.
+Alternatively, buses (notably the X10, X12, 12 and 12A) run from
+just outside the station to the University, taking about 15 minutes.
+It is a de-regulated service and as such impossible to guess the
+fare from day to day. It is usually about 50p. The 12 and 12A services
+are `correct fare only', but no-one (except the driver) knows what
+the correct fare is.
+
+The University is easily accessible by car, and
+may be reached from the M1, M40, M42, M45, M6 and M69.
+There is ample parking for private vehicles on campus.
+
+Birmingham airport is about 12 minutes from Coventry by
+rail and is connected by a frequent and fast service.

+
+I have a font.sub file which allows me to access these fonts using, say,

+Subject: web2c 6.1 et al. available
+
+I've released version 6.1 of web2c, a port of the basic TeX
+project web programs (TeX, Metafont, GFtoPK, etc.) to Unix,
+and my modified drivers (dvipsk and xdvik).
+
+You can get everything by ftp from:
+
+ (Boston) ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/{lib,web,web2c,dvipsk,xdvik}.tar.gz
+
+Soon they will be available from the CTAN sites (please try them first):
+
+ (Texas) ftp.shsu.edu
+ (England) ftp.tex.ac.uk
+ (Germany) ftp.uni-stuttgart.de
+
+See the ftp retrieval instructions below for precise details.
+
+A summary of the changes is below. Send bug reports to me (I'm sure
+there will be plenty). If you want support, or if you cannot ftp, I
+suggest contacting unixtex@u.washington.edu.
+
+There are no changes to the web files (that will be version 7.0);
+web-6.1.tar.gz is only different in the name of its top-level directory.
+
+kb@cs.umb.edu
+Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- write lpf@uunet.uu.net.
+
+
+lib is a collection of the basic tfm, tex, mf, and bibtex files
+ (in my opinion). Only change from 6.0 is to add the raw tfm's for Utopia.
+
+web2c:
+* foo.bar found before foo.tex (found before foo).
+* configure links sun.c to sun-sunview.c if SUNWIN is defined.
+* -DLONG_64_BITS is supplied automatically (if appropriate).
+* Various changes for configure --srcdir.
+* Sample MakeTeX* scripts included.
+
+dvipsk:
+* Don't complain if scaled fonts are close enough.
+* Document -pp.
+
+There are no particular xdvik changes; just keeping up with the kpathsea
+fixes.

+=========================================================================
+
+
+ FTP INSTRUCTIONS
+
+Most people who get in touch with the Unix TeX distribution at the Univ.
+of Washington are aiming to install plain TeX, LaTeX, BibTeX, plain
+Metafont, a previewer that will work under the X windowing system, and a
+PostScript device driver. While the ftp sites listed below have just
+about everything useful for users of TeX on a variety of operating
+systems, our retrieval instructions -- intended solely for users with
+machines running Unix -- are limited to the programs mentioned above.
+
+The three ftp sites mentioned below are part of the Comprehensive TeX
+Archive Network (CTAN).
+
+ CTAN is the result of cooperative work among members of TUG,
+ DANTE [German-speaking TeX Users Group], and UKTUG [U.K. TeX
+ Users Group], under the leadership of George Greenwade, Chair
+ for TUG's Technical Working Group on TeX Archive Guidelines.
+
+ Special thanks to George Greenwade for establishing the CTAN site
+ at Sam Houston State University (US); to Rainer Schoepf, Barbara Burr,
+ and members of DANTE for the CTAN site at the University of Stuttgart
+ (FRG); and to Sebastian Rahtz for the CTAN site at Aston University (UK).
+ These archives mirror each other meticulously.
+
+Please use the host nearest you:
+
+ Host Internet address TeX root dir
+ ---- ---------------- ------------
+ ftp.shsu.edu 192.92.115.10 tex-archive
+ ftp.tex.ac.uk 134.151.44.19 tex-archive
+ ftp.dante.de 128.69.1.12 tex-archive
+
+Users of ftp.tex.ac.uk or ftp.dante.de will be able to retrieve
+the same tex-archive files, but site-specific files (i.e., the two
+mentioned in the next paragraph) may be named differently.
+
+Upon logging on (to ftp.shsu.edu), retrieve and read
+
+ README.archive-features and
+ README.site-commands
+
+to learn how to use the archive efficiently.
+
+We assume that you will have read these documents and will be able to
+use the information in them to make retrieval more convenient for yourself.
+
+ For example, by reading these files, you will learn that you will be
+ able to retrieve foo.tar.gz even if the file does not exist, because
+ the ftpd allows archiving and compressing files on the fly.
+
+In our instructions, the mode of compression used during retrieval is
+gzip. All files ending in .gz are gzipped.
+
+We encourage you to retrieve and install GNU's gunzip utility, part of
+the gzip package. Set "binary" by typing "bi" at your ftp prompt, and
+retrieve the file
+
+ ~/tex-archive/archive-tools/info-zip/gzip-<version>.tar
+
+It does a better job of compression than standard Unix compress; and it
+is (as far as is known) patent-free. It is illegal to use Unix compress
+for software on the net, because it infringes on a software patent.
+
+ To inform yourself about the new software monopolies
+ in the U.S., send mail to the
+ League for Programming Freedom:
+ lpf@uunet.uu.net
+
+
+For a basic set of input files and fonts:
+- ----------------------------------------
+
+ ftp> cd tex-archive/systems/web2c
+ ftp> bi [for binary retrieval]
+ ftp> get lib.tar.gz
+
+ This file contains a small collection of fonts (TFM files only),
+ (La)TeX macros, MF macros, and BibTeX files, enough to get
+ started. The AMS fonts and macros are included.
+
+ It unpacks into a directory named `texmf', which you will want in
+ your equivalent of /usr/local/lib -- whatever you defined as your
+ $(datadir) in the Makefiles.
+
+ The organization of the archive was debated at great length. We hope
+ it will be useful. If you don't like our organization, you should
+ move the files around as you see fit, not forgetting to redefine the
+ search paths and installation directories. The Makefiles,
+ kpathsea/HIER, kpathsea/paths.h.in, and web2c/README (``Directory
+ hierarchies'') have more tidbits of information.
+
+ We advise unpacking this and deciding on your directory structure
+ *before* doing the compilations.
+
+
+For web2c:
+- ---------
+
+ Special thanks here to Karl Berry, Unix System Coordinator for TUG.
+ He improves/develops/maintains web2c, modes.mf, dvipsk, and xdvik
+ (and other things not mentioned in this file). He also maintains
+ pub/tex on ftp.cs.umb.edu, which is the originating location for all
+ the files above and below.
+
+ [still in tex-archive/systems/web2c]
+
+ ftp> get web.tar.gz [Knuth's WEB sources for TeX, MF, & family:
+ unpacks into ./web2c-<version>]
+
+ ftp> get web2c.tar.gz [WEB-to-C source:
+ unpacks into ./web2c-<version>]
+
+ It is important to retrieve and unpack both web.tar.gz and web2c.tar.gz.
+ They unbundle into a single directory called ./web2c-<version>.
+
+ The web2c software converts the WEB source files (in which TeX,
+ Metafont, & family are written) to C source. The input and font
+ files are needed to dump the format and base files required to run
+ plain TeX, LaTeX, and Metafont.
+
+
+

+- -------------------------------
+ and PostScript device driver (dvipsk):
+ -------------------------------------
+
+ ftp> cd ../../dviware/xdvik
+ ftp> get xdvik.tar.gz
+ [unpacks into ./xdvik-<version>]
+
+ ftp> cd ../dvipsk
+ ftp> get dvipsk.tar.gz

+
+ If using the web2c default search paths,
+ place this set of Computer Modern bitmapped fonts
+ in $(fontdir)/public/cm/pk/cx.
+
+ These pk fonts are not strictly necessary;
+ dvips and xdvi can be used with a script called
+ `MakeTeXPK' to generate needed bitmapped fonts.
+ Use $(fontdir)/tmp/pk/cx as the temporary destination
+ directory for newly-generated 300dpi write-black fonts.
+
+ The zip/unzip package is in
+ ~/tex-archive/archive-tools/info-zip.]
+
+ ftp> get pk300w.zip
+ [Bitmapped fonts generated using the
+ RicohFourZeroEightZero mode_def;
+ pk300w (write-white) fonts are better with xdvi
+ at lower magnifications.
+
+ If using the web2c default search paths,
+ place these in $(fontdir)/public/cm/pk/ricoh.
+
+ If using MakeTeXPK to generate 300dpi write-white fonts,
+ use $(fontdir)/tmp/pk/ricoh as the temporary destination
+ directory for newly-generated 300dpi write-white fonts.]
+
+ ftp> quit [end ftp session]
+
+We believe this covers the retrieval of the essential files.
+
+Each of the three packages -- web2c, xdvik, dvipsk -- contains its own
+installation instructions. If you have never set up these programs before,
+compile web2c first (that is to say, the material in both web.tar.gz and
+web2c.tar.gz, unpacked); begin by reading ./web2c-<version>/web2c/README
+and ./web2c-<version>/web2c/INSTALL. Remember to set up your texmf
+directory hierarchy before embarking on your compilation (see "For a
+basic set of input files and fonts" above).
+
+All installation processes require careful attention to detail, and knowledge
+of your system. "Make haste slowly", and you improve your chances of success.
+
+
+How to make web2c, dvipsk, and xdvik in a single make:
+- -----------------------------------------------------
+[Thanks to Martyn Johnson, Pierre MacKay, Jon Peatfield, and Andreas Schott
+ for their notes.]
+
+These three programs are not packaged together, because the latter two
+are updated fairly frequently. But (thanks to Karl's work), the programs
+can be made in a single make:
+
+ Extract the three archives so that the following directories
+ are parallel to each other:
+
+ ./dvipsk-<version>
+ ./web2c-<version>
+ ./xdvik-<version>
+
+ Next:
+
+ mv dvipsk-<version>/dvipsk web2c-<version>
+
+ mv xdvik-<version>/xdvik web2c-<version>
+
+ ./web2c-<version> should now contain four subdirectories:
+ dvipsk, kpathsea, web2c, and xdvik.
+
+The files remaining in ./dvipsk-<version> and ./xdvik-<version>
+are identical in all three archives. If you wish, you can now
+remove ./dvipsk-<version> and ./xdvik-<version>. If you wish to
+retain the names and versions of the programs, you can create the
+following symbolic links:
+
+ ln -s web2c-<version> dvipsk-<version>
+
+ ln -s web2c-<version> xdvik-<version>
+
+Be sure to read web2c-<version>/README, web2c-<version>/web2c/INSTALL,
+web2c-<version>/dvipsk/INSTALL, and web2c-<version>/xdvik/INSTALL.
+
+Make sure that you have completed the instructions in the section above
+called "For a basic set of input files and fonts".
+
+You are now ready to begin configuring and building the programs.
+
+
+
+Network users interested in TeX software will find much that is useful in
+the following FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) documents on rtfm.mit.edu
+(18.70.0.209) in ~pub/usenet/comp.text.tex:
+
+ T,_L,_e.:_F_A_Q_w_A_[M]
+ (i.e., TeX, LaTeX, etc.: FAQ with Answers [Monthly])
+
+There is also a supplement to the FAQ containing FTP locations; it's in
+the same place on rtfm.mit.edu.
+
+A beautifully done index of macros for TeX and LaTeX is available on
+theory.lcs.mit.edu (18.52.0.92) in ~/pub/tex/TeX-index.
+
+These files are all included in ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/src.tar.gz.
+
+- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+If you are concerned about connect-time, search or retrieval problems,
+or require help in building and installing the basic TeX/LaTeX and
+Metafont programs on your machines, you may wish to consider ordering
+a distribution tape from us (address below).
+
+A distribution fee in the area of $210 for domestic U.S. sites covers
+the expenses of putting together and maintaining the tape distribution,
+equipment, and of providing information and installation-support
+services. The University of Washington does not subsidize the Unix TeX
+distribution and requires it to be self-sustaining.
+
+E-mail queries concerning the distribution tape should be sent to:
+
+ unixtex@u.washington.edu
+
+otherwise to:
+
+ mackay@cs.washington.edu (Dr. Pierre A. MacKay).

+
+
+ LaTeX2e -- Second Test Release Available
+
+ Leslie Lamport and the LaTeX3 project team
+
+ 14 February 1994
+
+
+The second test release of LaTeX is now available. Notes about this
+release are at the end of this announcement. The first release
+revealed a few serious bugs and several other areas which need
+attention. Many people reported that documents and style files had
+been processed by the new system without serious problems; this
+includes one very important test -- the original text of `The LaTeX
+Manual'! We can also report that this release has been tested with
+all the files in the LaTeX 2.09 test suite and produces only
+predictable differences in the output.
+
+
+First, here is the original announcement
+- ----------------------------------------
+
+LaTeX2e is the new standard version of LaTeX -- prepared and supported
+by the LaTeX3 project team. It is upwardly compatible with LaTeX 2.09
+documents, but contains new features.
+
+Over the years many extensions of LaTeX have been developed. This is,
+of course, a welcome development, since it shows that the LaTeX system
+is in a healthy state. It has, however, had one unfortunate
+consequence: there are now several incompatible systems, in the sense
+of format (.fmt) files, all claiming to be LaTeX. Therefore, in order
+to process documents coming from various places, a site maintainer
+needs to provide several format files: LaTeX (with and without NFSS),
+SLiTeX, AmSLaTeX, and so on. In addition, when looking at a source
+file it is not always clear for which format the document was written.
+
+LaTeX2e puts an end to this unsatisfactory situation -- it will give
+access to all such extensions based on a single format and thus end
+the proliferation of mutually incompatible dialects of LaTeX 2.09.
+
+It uses an enhanced version (NFSS2) of the New Font Selection Scheme.
+Files such as amstex.sty (formerly the AmSLaTeX format) or slides.sty
+(formerly the SLiTeX format) will become extension packages, all
+working with this single format.
+
+The introduction of this new version will also make it possible to add
+a small number of often-requested features (such as extended versions
+of \newcommand).
+
+To summarize:
+
+ * Standardisation: a single format incorporating NFSS2, to replace
+ the present multiplicity of incompatible formats --
+ NFSS, lfonts, pslfonts, etc.
+
+* Maintenance: a standardised system supported by a reliable
+ maintenance policy.
+
+
+LaTeX2e adheres, as far as possible, to the following principles:
+
+ * Unmodified version 2.09 document files can be processed with
+ LaTeX2e.
+
+ * All new features of LaTeX2e conform to the conventions of version
+ 2.09, making it as easy as possible for current users to learn to
+ use them.
+
+LaTeX2e is described in a new edition of `LaTeX: A Document Preparation
+System' by Leslie Lamport (to appear during 1994) and `The LaTeX
+Companion' by Goossens, Mittelbach and Samarin, both published by
+Addison-Wesley.
+
+LaTeX2e will be distributed twice a year. This distribution is a
+preliminary test release, and doesn't contain all of the files that
+will be part of the full release. In particular, it does not contain
+the planned extensions in the area of graphics inclusion.
+
+The first full release will be available in Spring 1994.
+
+This is a test release, so please get it and test it on as many
+different systems as possible!
+
+
+Getting the second test release
+- -------------------------------
+LaTeX2e can be retrieved by anonymous ftp from the CTAN archives:
+
+ ftp.tex.ac.uk /tex-archive/macros/latex2e/core
+ ftp.shsu.edu /tex-archive/macros/latex2e/core
+ ftp.dante.de /tex-archive/macros/latex2e/core
+
+
+Bug reports
+- -----------
+Please report any problems with LaTeX2e by using the report-generating
+program latexbug.tex, included in the LaTeX2e distribution. Error
+reports should be sent to the following e-mail address:
+
+ latex-bugs@rus.uni-stuttgart.de
+
+
+Help for style/package/class file maintainers
+- ---------------------------------------------
+We shall be producing a short document summarising the changes that
+may be needed in order to turn a style file for old LaTeX into a class
+or package file. To get the latest information on this subject or to
+report problems, please send a message to the following address:
+
+ bugs@minnie.ZDV.Uni-Mainz.de
+
+Please ensure that it starts with the following line *exactly*:
+
+>Category: latex-class-writing
+
+If you want a prompt and useful reply, please make your message as
+short and precise as possible.
+
+
+Notes on the second test release
+- --------------------------------
+
+- -- Only the straightforward bugs and the serious bugs found in the
+ first release have been fixed; other problems are still being
+ worked on. Some of the reports uncovered features of the original
+ LaTeX which some consider to be bugs; whether these should be
+ `fixed' is not always clear.
+
+- -- There are thus several areas, including things arising from bug
+ reports, on which we are still working.
+
+- -- The details of the distribution, unpacking etc are still under
+ development.
+
+- -- The details of the typography in the standard classes is not
+ finalised.
+
+- -- The precise functionality of the compatibility mode is not fixed.
+
+- -- Still no graphics package!
+
+Warning
+- -------
+If you have installed the first release then you must remove it
+completely and start again. This is because there are many small
+differences, including new file names, and because the installation
+procedure now behaves differently.

+three answers
+ a) buy a copy of ATM for Windows or Mac (free with many programs, and

+ b) use free fonts. Charter, Utopia, Nimbus etc. or the CM fonts - all

+
+I dont know where to start with this hysterical outburst. Lets begin
+by getting it straight what Joachim Schrod has agreed to do in CTAN:
+we decided we wanted it clear which packages and classes were fully
+documented, tested, and maintained, as opposed to being donated `as
+is'. We have therefore split the contrib/ area for LaTeX2e into
+`supported' and `other'. To make it quite clear for *users* of this
+stuff, Joachim will issue guidelines for what it means to be
+`supported'. Since this is contributed software for *LaTeX2e*, he
+will naturally expect it to conform to 2e standards. I regard this as
+being entirely reasonable and beyond dispute.
+
+Next, let's also get it clear that
+
+ - LaTeX 209 style files will be accepted in CTAN in almost any
+ foreseeable future, and stored in the latex209 area
+ - packages/class which people wish to place in the public domain for 2e, but
+ do not wish to support or document to the standards, will simply
+ be placed in a different area from the `supported' one under 2e.
+
+Thirdly, lets look at CTAN policy (not formally stated, i admit),
+which is that the author dictates what goes in the archive, and how
+its arranged below our classification point. When LaTeX2e came out, I
+asked the developers how they wanted it stored in CTAN, and after much
+discussion, the scheme you see as macros/latex2e was decided on. I was
+very pleased to see the establishment of a `moderated' area for
+contributions, and very grateful to someone of Joachim's acuity for
+looking after it. I was equally pleased to see the `other' area, which
+could contain whatever authors wanted to place in the public domain.
+
+ > I think this is a serious issue for LaTeX, and one that must be addressed
+ > publicly.
+
+I am always puzzled by people who think that LaTeX is a basic human
+right. Its there because Lamport wrote it, and lets you use it for
+nothing. Now he has allowed a team led by Frank Mittelbach to maintain
+and enhance it, and gives his full blessing to LaTeX2e, which he will
+describe in the forthcoming new edition of his book. I, and many many
+other people, welcome LaTeX2e, and want to use it, and write public
+domain packages/classes for it.
+

+
+This is not true.
+
+FYI: There are plans to make the CTAN area
+macros/latex2e/contrib/supported/ moderated. As the name latex2e
+implies already, this area is concerned with distributions for
+LaTeX2e, not for 2.09-only stuff. (Of course, if packages work with
+LaTeX2e _and_ with 2.09, it's even better.)
+ Most probably, I will be the moderator of this area. There will
+be guidelines for submissions that concern the structure (not the
+content) of any distribution unit (aka bundle) in this area. To
+prevent false expectations: there are no plans for reviewing
+submissions, like in comp.sources.reviewed -- we're more interested
+to check a minimum level of completeness for a bundle, like in
+comp.sources.misc.
+
+> It

+
+That's true, indeed. Of course, contributions to LaTeX2e should work
+with LaTeX2e; I consider that an oxymoron. In LaTeX2e there is no
+such thing as a style file, by the way. LaTeX 2.09 style files are
+found in the CTAN area macros/latex/contrib/.
+
+Please note, that there's also the unmoderated
+macros/latex2e/contrib/other/ CTAN area for further contributions to
+LaTeX2e. As always, CTAN should be regarded as the definitive place
+for TeX software; your distribution point of choice.
+
+> I think this is a serious issue for LaTeX
+
+I think so as well. I hope that a moderated area for LaTeX2e packages
+and classes will raise the level of quality you can expect to get. I
+hope that we're providing an enhanced service for the TeX user
+community at large, eventually. Of course, if assessments will show
+that this is not the case, decisions will have to be discussed again.

+(pgm*.vf)
+
+At the UKTUG meeting on 19/1/94, we were told (and shown) how

+[William Sharman's talk with reference to (incidentally) garamond].
+So my question is which foundary's version of Garamond was used
+as the basis of the virtual font files in the Archive?
+
+The archive has the following pgm* files. Is the following interpretation

+
+pgmb - garamond bold
+pgmbi - garamond bold italic
+pgml - garamond light

+
+ You can use emTeX under MS Windows. The only programs that cannot run
+ under Windows are TEX386.EXE and MF386.EXE. If you are using a version

+ Of course, the compilation would be slower (as everything is under

+Subject: when is a .pfb file not a .pfb file?
+
+A while ago you were kind enough to offer to help with my PostScript
+problems. $200 for Yannis Haralambous' ScholarTex package bought me the
+fonts but no installation instructions ...
+
+I've made some progress. A recent hint on comp.text.tex alerted me to the
+fact that PostScript (unlike DOS) is very fussy about upper-lower case.
+Having changed the font name reference in psfonts.map from Ygrepla to
+YgrePla (!), the LJ4 will now actually *print* the font it was already
+downloading. HOWEVER ...
+
+It still hasn't got the information it needs to position the Greek accents
+and breathings over their vowels; they are just strung out as separate
+characters. It clearly needs, as far as I can make out from the dvips
+manual (all that ptmr, rptmr stuff isn't exactly easy) a .vf file.
+
+But --- and I already knew this was a problem --- although I can generate
+.tfm and .vpl files perfectly successfully with afm2tfm, for some reason the
+program called vptovf whose job it is to make a .vf file simply won't work;
+it flashes a continuous string of error messages about `character in line 1
+not in parentheses', and has to be put out of its misery with ^C.
+
+Yannis (who `knows nothing about DOS') generated his fonts with some kind of
+Apple program. Are there different kinds of .pfb program, and have I got
+the wrong kind?
+
+Any advice you can offer will be greatly appreciated.

+
+Further to my earlier message (and when I say earlier I *mean* earlier -- I
+accidentally got up at 5.50 this morning, which may account for my talking
+about .pfb's when I meant .afm's) ...
+
+I just may be a bit further along.
+
+In some kind of inspired desperation I actually let vptovf continue with its
+frenzied error messages. After a minute and a half (on a 486-33) it
+stopped, apparently having done its job. You mean programs are SUPPOSED to
+behave like that??? I transferred the .vf and .tfm files as instructed by
+Rokicki. This time, I thought, it might really work.
+
+And indeed the printed output is different. But it's still not right. The
+accents and breathings now appear more convincing, but instead of being
+situated over their proper letters they sit smugly over an extra vowel of
+their own -- a Greek lc upsilon, in each case. And final sigmas still don't
+appear as such.
+
+So the `virtual font' stuff still isn't working properly. Please God, don't
+tell me I have to go into Re-Encoding ...

+Dear All,

+
+1. Why do I need Cork encoding? (I am not being rhetorical
+here--this is just a naive question about how will it improve the
+quality of my life.)
+
+2. What must I do to install it? For instance, must I replace
+zillions of CM fonts, what must I put in psfonts.map so that dvips
+handles postscript fonts with this encoding (and must I run afm2tfm
+over all the postscript afms again...)
+
+Any help from the experts or pointers to other sources of info
+gratefully received.
+
+Many thanks--Fran

+
+No doubt it is a false economy, but every university in the UK has
+been forced to practice false economies for at least the last 10
+years. We currently run the suntools previewer dvipage on a sun 3/60
+with these results:
+
+startup: 7 secs
+goto page N: 1 sec
+display: about 5/6 of an A4 page, easily legible down to 5 points.
+
+I was urged to try ghostscript/view; we dont have it so I tried on
+somebody else's machine, a Sparc LX10 which is much faster. (Tex on
+that machine went at least 15 times as fast as on the 3/60).
+Ghostview on the LX10 was definitely slower than dvipage on the 3/60,
+and even 12-point type was difficult to read. I know you can zoom, but
+then you can only see a small part of the page.
+
+dvipage is not perfect: it only works on a Sun and it cannot handle
+embedded graphics. Even with these defects, I think that it is much
+better than any other previewer I have seen.

+The sessions will end at 1700 on Tuesday 22nd.
+
+Travel to Warwick University
+There is an Inter-City rail service to Coventry, but from some
+locations it may be easier to travel to Birmingham initially.
+
+Journey depart arrive
+Euston to Coventry 0810 0920
+ 0840 0950
+ 0910 1025
+Manchester to Coventry 0718 0929
+ 0818 1027
+Bristol (TM) to B'ham 0714 0854 Trains from Birmingham to Coventry
+ 0830 0954 are frequent and fast (journey time
+Newcastle to B'ham 0640 0951 of 20--30 minutes, departing
+York to B'ham 0742 0951 every 10 or 15 minutes).
+
+There will be a shuttle bus service running between 1000 and 1030 for delegates
+arriving at Coventry Railway Station. The shuttle bus will also be available
+on the 22nd to take delegates back to the station.
+
+A taxi from the station to the University costs about \pounds4.
+Alternatively, buses (notably the X10, X12, 12 and 12A) run from
+just outside the station to the University, taking about 15 minutes.
+It is a de-regulated service and as such impossible to guess the
+fare from day to day. It is usually about 50p. The 12 and 12A services
+are `correct fare only', but no-one (except the driver) knows what
+the correct fare is.
+
+The University is easily accessible by car, and
+may be reached from the M1, M40, M42, M45, M6 and M69.
+There is ample parking for private vehicles on campus.
+
+Birmingham airport is about 12 minutes from Coventry by
+rail and is connected by a frequent and fast service.

+Subject: BibTeX Problems
+
+Help!! I have two problems with bibtex.
+
+(1) I have built up a bibliographic database in BibTeX format.
+Recently, BibTeX has started complaining that "exceeded string quota
+4000". I have no clue what that means and would greatly appreciate if
+someone could explain the cause and suggest a cure.
+
+(2) I would like to sort the references (using the plain style) and
+in addition, would like to cluster references by year. For Example, I
+would like something of this sort....
+
+[???] Author1,.... \
+ - all references of a particular year,
+[????] Author 2,..... / references in alphabetical order
+
+[???] Author1,.... \
+ - all references of a higher year,
+[????] Author 2,..... / references in alphabetical order
+
+and so on. Is there a style file that I could use and is available
+publicly? I would greatly appreciate answers to the above questions.

+Hi all - I am baffled!!!!
+
+I've got the files that make up MusicTeX and have uncompressed the file

+Subject: FAX query on filters
+
+Following on our telephone conversation, I would be interested in obtaining
+a filter for latex to Framemaker 4. The latter is usually in the format
+call MIF format, or Maker Interchange Format. The filter exists for Unix
+based systems, and presumably it is somehow and somewhere available for DOS
+PC based systems and software. Any indications you could give would be
+appreciated.
+
+The primary direction of tranlslation would be from latex to MIF (or Frame)
+format. The reverse direction could be useful on occasion.)

+Subject: EuroTeX '94

+
+============================================================================
+EuroTeX '94 EuroTeX '94 EuroTeX '94 EuroTeX '94 EuroTeX '94 EuroTeX
+============================================================================
+
+Is North America too far / too expensive / too alien a culture?
+Then come to EuroTeX '94, _the_ TeX conference of the year.
+EuroTeX will take place at Sobieszewo on an idyllic island off
+the coast of Gdansk in Poland. The conference will run from Monday
+September 26th to Friday September 30th, and the _maximum_ cost
+(based on two persons sharing) will not exceed $260-00 / sterling
+175-00 / DM 450-00. Those arriving early on Monday will be able
+to take part in a guided tour of the old town of Gdansk, whilst
+Tuesday to Thursday will be packed with talks and tutorials on TeX
+and related topics.
+
+All delegates will be accommodated in a single building, and for
+the whole week will be cut off from civilisation: no
+distractions, no need to leave the island: everything will be
+provided. For those unable to sustain the pace, quiet meditative
+walks along the shore searching for amber will provide the ideal
+opportunity for therapeutic meditation.
+
+Papers are solicited _now_, and early registration for the
+conference is advised: with its Central European location and
+idyllic setting, the conference is expected to attract many
+delegates. If you are even _thinking_ of coming, then you are
+urged to return the form below: we will then add you to the
+mailing list and keep you posted about any changes in the
+schedule. Please note the following deadlines:
+
+Abstracts for papers: no later than 1 May 1994;
+Final papers: 15th August 1994;
+
+Provisional registration: 1 June 1994 (no charge for cancellation);
+Confirmed registration: 1 September 199 (cancellation charged at 50%);
+Late registration: 15th September 1994 (no cancellation possible);
+
+Bursaries: as with the combined EuroTeX/TUG meeting at Aston last year,
+it is hoped to be able to offer financial assistance to delegates who
+would otherwise be unable to attend; of course, we cannot be sure at
+this stage that sponsors will be as generous as they were last year,
+but intending delegates who will need assistance in order to be able to
+attend should indicate in the space provided the _minimum_ bursary
+which would allow them to be able to attend, and should give clear
+reasons why they are applying. All applications will be treated in the
+strictest confidence. Delegates who are in no need of a bursary and
+who are able to assist others less fortunate are urged to pledge a
+donation in the space provided.
+
+Tutorials and Courses: It is intended to offer both tutorials (which
+will take place during the week of the conference proper), and courses
+(which will take place during the week following the conference);
+proposed topics include book design and LaTeX-2e, but no firm decisions
+have yet been taken on topics, durations or costs. Further details
+concerning this area will be circulated as soon as they are known, and
+space has been provided on the provisional registration form (below) in
+which both to indicate an interest in tutorials/courses and to suggest
+possible topics.

+
+You can find a very fine distribution of VMS executables both for VAX and
+AXP on the CTAN archive (ftp.tex.ac.uk) in tex-archive/systems/vms. The
+files are archived and packed with the new ZIP which preserves VMS
+attributes.
+
+The programmes come with full source and stand the canonical tests (there

+Subject: UK TeX Archive now back online
+
+There have been problems with accessing both of the machines holding
+the UK TeX Archive in the last couple of weeks. First, the original
+archive machine, tex.ac.uk, went down when a vital part of its innards
+failed; this took engineers some time to diagnose. That machine runs
+the primary DNS nameserver for the domain tex.ac.uk, so after a week,
+the cached data in the secondary nameservers was timed out, resulting
+in the name for the Sun archive, ftp.tex.ac.uk, to be unknown and
+therefore inaccessible unless you happened to know its IP address
+(134.151.79.32).
+
+Happily, the VAX was resurrected and all should now be functioning normally.
+We've got a transition strategy for moving to the situation where the
+Sun becomes *the* archive machine and will announce changes here as
+they take place. However, you should even now consider the Sun to be
+holding the latest, definitive copies of TeX software, as it's part of
+the CTAN (Comprehensive TeX Archive Network), which aims to automatically
+update a set of archive machines with identical, up-to-date files.
+For details of the other CTAN machines, see the footer of this digest.

+ ========================================
+ ==== Announcement: 4allTeX CD-ROM ====
+ ========================================
+
+
+4TeX: a TeX Workbench for MS-DOS PC's
+=====================================
+TeX and all its companions offer an enormous amount of possibilities.
+This is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The advantage is that
+almost anything is possible. The disadvantage is that you need detailed
+knowledge of all related programs to fully exploit the possibilities.
+
+4TeX is an attempt to integrate all major TeX related programs in a
+shell that shields you from the tedious and frustrating job of setting
+environment variables and program parameters.
+
+In 4TeX all functions are available through simple menus, so profound
+knowledge of all underlying programs is no longer required.
+
+
+4allTeX: the NTG distribution set
+=================================
+At the end of 1993 the NTG (the Dutch language oriented TeX user group)
+released the package 4allTeX. It consists of a set of 31 diskettes, on
+which the most important TeX and LaTeX related packages are assembled
+in well structured modules. The set is especially interesting to MS-DOS
+users it contains the complete 4TeX workbench.
+Others will also find it valuable because of the `public domain' system
+independent parts of it. This includes of course TeX and LaTeX files,
+but also PostScript fonts.
+
+
+4allTeX: the NTG CD-ROM
+=======================
+To simplify the distribution of 4allTeX, a CD-ROM will be released in June!
+This CD-ROM should enable you to set up a 4TeX system with minimal effort.
+
+Amongst others, the CD-ROM will contain:
+- - - - a fully installed 4TeX 3.10 workbench, ready for use;
+- - - - the complete 4allTeX distribution set;
+- - - - the MAPS (NTG's `Minutes & APpendiceS', articles on TeX related topics)
+ of recent years in PostScript format;
+- - - - all TEX-NL en UK-TEX mailing list discussions of recent years;
+- - - - extra documentation, such as:
+ . `The TeXbook' and `The Metafont book' in TeX code,
+ . TeX, LaTeX and Metafont introductions,
+ . very extensive bibliographies on miscellaneous TeX related topics
+ in BiBTeX format,
+ . indexes to TeX macros and to files on the Comprehensive TeX Archive
+ Network;
+- - - - extra programs, such as:
+ . GNUplot,
+ . GhostScript,
+ . dvi utilities,
+ . PostScript utilities,
+ . Polish and Cyrillic fonts,
+ . WEB: literate programming.
+
+>> The CD-ROM will include the updated documentation on 4TeX <<,
+an A5 sized booklet of approx. 120 pages, that explains how 4TeX works
+in depth.
+
+>> The CD will be produced in a limited edition, and no reprint is
+scheduled as yet <<. Therefore it is wise to make reservations. For users
+in The Netherlands and Belgium this is done by sending e-mail to the NTG
+secretary (P.O. Box 394, NL-1740 AJ Schagen, The Netherlands) or the NTG
+board (cgl@risc1.rug.nl), specifying how many CD-ROMs you want.
+Those who pay >>>> before April 15 <<<< (postgiro 1306238, t.n.v.
+penningmeester NTG, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands, specifying `CD-ROM'
+and the desired number) have first rights. Members of UKTUG see the
+head of this message.

+Subject: Bibcard
+
+Hi,
+
+I'm not a system manager but I want to install 'bibcard'. consequently,
+I've encountered problems.
+
+I altered BINDIR and MANDIR in makefile to fit my directories. I did
+'make' and 'make install' as suggested in 'readme' file. I didn't change
+HELPPATH though. To be hnoest, I don't know how yet.
+
+I've got 'bibcard' at last. I thought it's been done but it's not. When I
+typed in some test data and tried to saved the file, it gives 'bus error'.
+This might be the problem of bibcard itself, but can you fix it for me?
+
+BTW, this operation takes up a lot of memory. My computer is going to
+complain about it again. What a life.
+

+
+I'm thinking of getting an ink-jet printer to fulfill the dual roles
+of TeX output device and hard-copy device for printing images. The
+printer will be attached to a PC running Linux. The currently
+favoured candidates are the HP deskjet 560C (600x300 dpi) and the
+Canon BJ600 (360 dpi). Does anyone have any experience in driving
+either of these from Linux? Could I use the colour capabilities in my
+(La-)TeX documents?

+ We had earlier used EMTEX and were conversant with it. We lost

+Have you deleted EMTEX from your archives? We find that

+But we prefer to down load here via ftp. Please let us

+
+ (This document is also available by WWW as
+ http://pelican.cl.cam.ac.uk/people/rf/july.html)
+
+LaTeX fonts and graphics: a hands-on tutorial
+
+Two of the most important new features of LaTeX 2e are its support for
+fonts and graphics: no longer does LaTeX have to mean Computer Modern with
+picture mode. In this intensive one-day course, two of the authors of
+LaTeX 2e will provide a tutorial in LaTeX 2e's fonts and graphics. Topics
+will include:
+
+ Processing LaTeX 2e documents.
+ Selecting new fonts.
+ Installing new fonts.
+ Including graphics.
+ Using colour.
+
+The tutorial will be aimed at:
+
+ Authors who wish to learn the new LaTeX document commands.
+ Designers who wish to write document classes or packages using fonts,
+ graphics and colour.
+ System administrators who wish to install and maintain the new LaTeX
+ features.
+
+The tutorial will include sessions hands-on at a keyboard, and each
+attendee will have access to a Unix workstation. The cost includes
+handouts, lunch and refreshments.
+
+The time, the place
+
+ The time: July 11, 1994
+ The place: University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory
+ The tutors: David Carlisle and Alan Jeffrey of the LaTeX 3 project.
+ The cost: (to UK TUG members), 50 pounds, or 40 pounds if you book by
+ June 11. (60 and 50 pounds to non-members; 10 pounds surcharge for
+ generating a proforma invoice against an official order.)

+I'm using latex on a Unix (Sparc) box and I need to include postscript
+files. Currently I'm using \epsfbox{file.ps} to include them and that
+works ok. But I like to use captions. This isn't possible, as far as I

+
+\begin{figure}
+\epsfbox{file.ps}
+\caption{Caption}
+\end{figure}
+
+but in this case, the boundingbox wasn't changed, which means that the
+figure was put at the place specified in the postscript file, instead
+of being changed by the epsf package. I hope this makes sense to
+somebody. Is there a way of including captions around postscript files
+within latex???

+
+Dear Colleague ---
+
+Are you thinking of coming to EuroTeX '94? If so, would you like to present
+a paper? The themes of this year's EuroTeX conference are
+
+ Principles;
+ Practice;
+ Progress;
+ POLAND!
+
+and papers are now urgently being sought. We are hoping to follow the
+example set at Prague in 1992 and Aston in 1993, by making the proceedings
+available actually at the conference, and in order for this to be feasible,
+it is necessary to establish some fairly strict guidelines for submission.
+
+Abstracts are wanted _now_, and must be submitted no later than Friday
+10th June; the committee will acknowledge receipt of all abstracts, and
+will let authors know whether or not the paper is accepted by no later
+than Friday 24th June. One clear month will then be allowed for preparation
+of the full-text papers, which must therefore be submitted no later than
+Friday 22nd July, and these papers will then be passed on to referees who
+are knowledgeable in the chosen subject area: the referee and author then
+have one further month in which to agree and produce a `best possible' version
+of the paper. The final version of the paper must be submitted by Friday
+20th August.
+
+Papers may be prepared in either Plain TeX or LaTeX, and a copy of `EuroTeX.Sty
+'
+will be sent to all who submit abstracts; this will be a direct derivative of
+TUGproc.Sty, and authors wishing to make an early start on marking-up their tex
+t
+may safely base their work on the current release of TUGproc. In order to
+ensure a uniform appearance in the Proceedings, authors are urged _not_ to make
+changes to the default fonts, leading, etc.
+
+If you would like to present a paper, please complete the e-form below,
+and return it to the Programme Committee, EuroTeX '94:

+I generated my own 600 dpi fonts some two years ago for use with an

+high-density 31/4" discs plus sufficient return postage. I will also

+Can anyone suggest an elegant way of setting displayed equations

+
+ / <expression_1> <condition_1> (<label_1>)
+ |
+ <l_h_s> = <

+
+Requirements: The labels to be vertically aligned with the
+corresponding right-hand sides and horizontally flush with
+the right margin; the remainder to be horizontally centered
+on the page. The left brace to be of sufficient size to cover
+the two (or possibly more) right-hand side expressions.
+
+Without the labels, this is easy. The problem is where one puts
+the labels in the box hierarchy. [The author uses this construct
+several times in a work - don't ask me why.]

+Subject: tex and latex
+
+Dear Mr. Abbott,
+ Following our telephone conversation this morning I would
+like to summarise my problems.
+ 1) I have an alpa workstation running open vms 1.51h1 and I would like to
+run latex using macros such as revtex. I have subscribed to deccampus so
+that in principle all of decs layered products are available, although
+I dont want to install things that we never use such as pascal, bliss
+or c. We are exclusively fortran in our coding. Thus any installation of
+tex or latex is best done with executables if possible.
+ 2) I have logged on to ftp.tex.ac.uk and spent quite a few hours searching
+through the archives. Under tex-archive/systems/vms there is a readme.
+vmstex by C Spieler, and I have tried to follow this. I have unzip working
+but I cannot find initex or tex.exe files.
+ 3) Is it possible to find someone who has done what I want to do and
+just copy the files from them? Or can you help?
+ Thanks
+ Robert Pettifer

+Subject: LaTeX questions
+
+I need some help with (La)TeX and its TooLs:
+
+1. Are there any tools for managing BibTeX files? I would like
+ to sort, check for duplicate entries etc. etc. Note that I am not
+ a UNIX expert and suggestions to write things in AWK (is that short
+ for Awkward?) will be met with a large rasberry!. I am a dedicated
+ Macintosh/Textures User, but can use UNIX in a very (very) simple way if I
+ have to. Please note that the Bibliography file(s) are large (they won't Bib
+TeX
+ on UNIX but will on my Mac!).
+
+2. Some time ago I asked for help with using a double-sided printer, the help
+ was very useful, but the need to use the printer went away and I forgot how
+ the problem can be solved. We now have a double-sided printer in the
+ department which I would like to use. (La)TeX seems to be very clever and
+ when you are doing twosided it doesn't seem to print totally blank pages --
+ all very well unless you are using a double-sided printer! The LateX 3 people
+ might like to think about this, double sided printers are now becomming quite
+ common! Has anyone any straight forward fixes for ``twosided'' that works?
+
+3. I need to produce a document with \documentstyle[12pt,...]{book}, but
+ with the mathematics set in 11pt. HELP ...... What do I need to fix? (yes I
+ know I shouldn't do this, but the alternative is even worse...).
+
+4. I need to build some composite mathematical symbols using overprinting, an
+
+ evening with three TeX books produced the following:
+
+ \def\#1#2{%
+ \setbox0=\hbox{$#1$}
+ \dimen0=\the\wd0
+ \divide\dimen0 by 2
+ #1\kern-\dimen0\#2
+ }
+
+ There must be a better way!
+
+5. Does anyone know were the LaTeX macros for the Z specification language are
+ hidden on the archive?
+
+Many thanks for your help and attention!
+

+Subject: multiple input directories
+
+howdy.
+
+suppose you're editing a book, which is a consolidation
+of papers which have appeared elsewhere. so, you've got
+directories containing the skeleton file for each of
+these papers -- something like main.tex in each of the
+directories -- which may or may not each have different
+bibliographic or other style specifications. but each
+of those skelaton files is called main.tex, and a lot
+of the files that those things input are called things like
+intro.tex, defs.tex, discuss.tex... where the semantic
+content is put into the directory name. suppose you've also
+got something in each directory called newmain.tex which
+inputs each file without naming style stuff.
+
+now, you're editing a book, so you want to just suck
+in each of the papers into the unfied style of the book.
+but, you want to do this by creating a new master file
+that points to each of the newmain.tex files without having
+symbolic links or copies of the files in the book directory.
+
+alrighty. so here's the problem -- if you do this, latex
+looks for all the inputs in the directory that the book
+file is located -- so even if you name the directory in the
+input that picks up each newmain.tex, any figures, tables,
+etc. that the files input by chapter/newmain.tex are unknown
+to the system since they're not in the book directory. nor
+do you want to go in hardcoding all of the directory specifications.
+since the system isn't recursive in that fashion (i've just
+picked up a file from directory-X, therefore look for any inputs
+during the processing of that file in directory-X regardless of the
+directory the output is being written to), you might be willing
+to just change the directory more directly:
+
+ \setinputdirctory{Chapter3}
+ \input{newmain}
+
+ \setinputdirctory{Chapter4}
+ \input{newmain}
+
+and so on. so the question is this -- does anyone out there know
+how to change the default input directory during document processing?
+TEXINPUTS doesn't work because there's good reason to have duplicate
+file names in across the various directories. i can't find anything
+likely in the latex manual, and i don't own the texbook (which i
+reckon is more likely....)
+
+any ideas?
+
+thankya

+The release of LaTeX 2e as the officially supported version of LaTeX has

+ 1. macros/latex/ has been moved to macros/latex209/
+ 2. macros/latex2e/ has been moved to macros/latex/
+ 3. macros/latex/ has been linked to macros/latex2e/

+
+ The new LaTeX
+
+ Leslie Lamport and the LaTeX3 project team
+
+ June 1994
+
+
+
+The LaTeX3 project team is pleased to announce the release of the new
+standard version of LaTeX. It is upwardly compatible with existing
+LaTeX documents, and contains new features including the long-awaited
+graphics extensions.
+
+Over the years many extensions of LaTeX have been developed. This is,
+of course, a welcome development, since it shows that the LaTeX system
+is in a healthy state. It has, however, had one unfortunate
+consequence: there were several incompatible systems all claiming to
+be LaTeX.
+
+The new LaTeX puts an end to this unsatisfactory situation -- it gives
+access to all extensions such as SLiTeX, AmSLaTeX, and PSLaTeX, based
+on a single format. This will end the proliferation of mutually
+incompatible dialects of LaTeX.
+
+We have also introduced a small number of often-requested features
+(such as more control over float placement) and an improved interface
+for writers of document classes and packages.
+
+The new LaTeX is described in a new edition of `LaTeX: A Document
+Preparation System' by Leslie Lamport (to appear during 1994) and `The
+LaTeX Companion' by Goossens, Mittelbach and Samarin, both published
+by Addison-Wesley.
+
+>From now on there will be a new distribution of LaTeX twice a year, in
+June and December.
+
+The new LaTeX can be retrieved by anonymous ftp from the CTAN archives:
+
+ ftp.tex.ac.uk /tex-archive/macros/latex/base
+ ftp.shsu.edu /tex-archive/macros/latex/base
+ ftp.dante.de /tex-archive/macros/latex/base
+
+
+The files in these directories require a somewhat long unpacking
+process. For those who prefer to skip this step, we provide a second
+distribution in unpacked format in the following CTAN directories:
+
+ ftp.tex.ac.uk /tex-archive/macros/latex/unpacked
+ ftp.shsu.edu /tex-archive/macros/latex/unpacked
+ ftp.dante.de /tex-archive/macros/latex/unpacked
+
+
+Apologies and Thanks
+- --------------------
+For obvious reasons, we have not been able to incorporate everyone's
+suggestions for improvements or fixes to LaTeX.
+
+We are nevertheless very grateful to everyone who has made suggestions
+and/or reported bugs and other problems with old versions and with the
+beta-test versions. We hope that all of your reports have been
+answered by one of us: if not, please let us know. We have given them
+all serious consideration and, in many cases where we have not been
+able to act on them now, we have added them to the list of things that
+need further attention in the future. Also, of course, many of them
+could be developed into useful LaTeX packages, by you!

+The only thing you have to do is to scale any imported postscript figures
+slightly differently (by 5/6 as pspicture does). Used with 10pt it
+typesets nearly the same as 12pt A4, just that you get two fat columns.

+Subject: File handle problems with betatest emTeX and Novell Netware
+
+
+Has anyone else experienced file handle problems running the latest betatest
+of emTeX on a Novell network? The problems we are experiencing are
+
+- -- TeX cannot open a TeX file in the current directory, even though it
+ could on the last run.
+
+- -- cannot write to xxx.log
+
+- -- cannot write to xxx.dvi
+
+- -- cannot open/write to xxx.aux
+
+Usually the first such error causes TeX to enter its infinite loop, and a
+reboot is essential, as any other filename gives the same result.
+
+Note also that the problem occurs even when working on c: with megabytes
+to spare, and neither temp nor tmp pointing at the network drives.
+
+When the problem occurs in a DOS shell from MS Windows, an attempt at exiting
+from windows causes a shutdown, as DOS says it has run out of file handles.
+We start with files=48 (+16) on our network.
+
+Any help would be much appreciated!

+
+Not really a problem with emTeX after all, but with DOS.
+
+Some of my files contained the combination
+
+call xxx > nul
+
+where xxx might be an .exe file. n repetitions of that causes DOS to get

+FILES=n

+
+Where on CTAN did it come from? When? (there's been an upheaval of the
+LaTeX-related macros recently) Which version of LaTeX are you using?
+
+The basic answer to your question is that you need
+
+a) a macro or two to request helvetica
+b) some .tfm files to enable TeX to do the setting
+c) some .vf files to enable the dvi->ps process to map the TeX
+ character set to the postscript one
+d) a dvi->ps converter that can be persuaded to use resident fonts
+
+If you're using current LaTeX (2e), there's a canned solution for the
+whole job on CTAN (macros/latex/packages/psnfss and
+fonts/metrics/adobe/helvetic); if your site isn't up to date, you're
+rather more completely on your own...

+
+ Hello,
+
+ On CTAN, in the directory macros/latex/packages/babel the
+ latest version of babel, version 3.4 patch level 1 has been
+ made available.
+ This version of the babel system has been upgraded for use
+ with LaTeX2e. Yet it can (again) also be used with plain TeX.
+ Patch level 1 fixes a problem with \lefthyphenmin and
+ \righthyphenmin. They didn't get their proper values in the
+ earlier release. Also some incompatibilities with plain TeX
+ have been removed.
+
+ Version 3.4 patch level 1 is not compatible with T1 output
+ encoding, some of the language specific files may give
+ unecpected results with T1.
+
+ The support for typesetting in russian that was available in
+ versions 3.3 and earlier has (temporarily) been withdrawn in
+ versino 3.4. I need someone to help me with that.

+ Happy TeXing,

+Subject: Announcement of UKTUG AGM and elections
+
+ Annual General Meeting
+
+The Annual General Meeting of the UKTUG will be held on the
+morning of Wednesday 19~October 1994 at the University of Warwick,
+in the Staff Club `Quiet Room' in Rootes Building.
+
+The Constitution contains the following clauses:
+
+17. The annual general meeting of the UKTUG shall be held in the
+United Kingdom not later than the last day of November in each year
+on a date and at a time to be fixed by the Committee and notified
+to members at least 35 days in advance for the following purposes---
+
+(1) to receive from the Committee a report balance sheet and statement of
+accounts for the preceding financial year
+
+(2) to fill the vacancies in the Committee and to appoint auditors for the
+ensuing year
+
+(3) to decide on any motion which may be proposed to the meeting in the
+manner provided below
+
+(4) to fix the entrance fee (if any) and annual subscription
+
+18. Any member desirous of proposing any motion at the
+annual general meeting shall give notice in writing to the secretary not
+later than 14 days before the date of such meeting
+
+23. No amendment (other than a motion for adjournment) shall be moved to any
+motion proposed at any annual or special general meeting unless written notice
+of the amendment shall have been sent to the secretary prior to the meeting
+
+I think that Clauses 17(3), 18 and 23 are self-explanatory.
+
+A draft agenda, covering items~(3) and~(4), will appear in Baskerville 4.4.
+In the meantime, anyone wishing to propose any motion to the AGM must send
+me, in writing, the text of the proposed motion and their own name and
+address, to reach me by 5~October 1994. If there are any changes to the
+draft agenda, the final agenda will be sent to members in the 14 days before
+the AGM.
+
+As for vacancies on the Committee, C. A. Rowley will continue as Chair in
+1994--94 and P. Abbott as Treasurer and Membership Secretary.
+Clause 10 of the Constitution implies that at most 3 other
+members of the present Committee may continue without being re-elected.
+Thus Clause 9 implies that there are up to 7 vacancies to be filled.
+
+The following parts of Clause 10 describe the procedure for
+filling these vacancies:
+
+(3) Any two members who are individuals may nominate any member or
+members of the group who are individuals to fill any of the vacancies
+by giving at least 7~days notice in writing to the secretary
+
+(4) If there are more nominations than vacancies then the membership
+will be decided by an election by single transferable vote in which
+every member of the UKTUG who is an individual and is present at the
+annual general meeting shall be entitled but not obliged to vote
+
+Nominations for committee members in accordance with the above
+sub-clauses are thus being sought. Written nominations for new committee
+members should be sent to me, to reach me by 12~October 1994.
+There is no official nomination form. If you like, you may use the
+forms provided in Baskerville 4.3. Otherwise, what you send me should
+contain, clearly and legibly,
+
+ ---name and address of nominee
+ ---declaration that (s)he is willing to stand for this
+ office, signed by the nominee
+ ---name and address of the nominator
+ ---statement nominating the nominee, signed by the
+ nominator
+ ---name and address of seconder
+ ---statement in support of the nomination, signed by
+ the seconder.
+
+The nominee, nominator and seconder should all be members of the UKTUG,
+and the last two should be different from each other.
+
+Once elected, the Committee appoints officers from its membership.
+Your present secretary is retiring (forced to under Clause 10(1)) and
+there is at present no Publicity person. Anyone with talents for either
+of these jobs is strongly encouraged to stand for election to the Committee.
+
+In all the above, `in writing' means `on paper', not email.
+
+Please put `UKTUG' on the outside of the envelope when you send me any
+of the above. Otherwise, people may find themselves elected to the
+wrong committee.
+
+My address is
+
+Department of Mathematical Studies
+Goldsmiths' College
+New Cross
+London SE14 6NW
+
+until 31 August 1994; and
+
+School of Mathematical Sciences

+Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: Move of UK CTAN node
+
+The UK node of the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network changed its home
+this morning (Friday 8 July, 1994), UK time -- it now resides on
+machines at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory.
+
+In parallel with the move, a number of new network names have been
+generated, which distinguish the archive's different services.
+
+To access the new archive, please use:
+
+ tex.ac.uk for email
+ www.tex.ac.uk for www
+ ftp.tex.ac.uk for FTP [128.232.1.87]
+ nfs.tex.ac.uk for NFS
+ gopher.tex.ac.uk for gopher
+
+The archive no longer provides:
+
+ - a WAIS server,
+ - an NIFTP (UK JANET coloured-book file transfer) service
+ (coloured-book only sites within the UK should use the JANET
+ NIFTP/ftp gateway),
+ - public terminal access; browsing facilities are now only available
+ via WWW, ftp or gopher. The gopher service isn't quite what it
+ was, but we'll be working on that.
+
+The file system to mount on the new NFS service is
+ nfs.tex.ac.uk:/public/ctan/tex-archive
+
+ftp users should notice no change. Any shortcomings in any of the
+services should be reported by email to ctan-uk@tex.ac.uk

+Subject: Announcing babel version 3.4 patch level 2
+
+ Hello,
+
+ On CTAN, in the directory macros/latex/packages/babel the
+ latest version of babel, version 3.4 patch level 2 has been
+ made available.
+ This version contains a few patches to make the documentation
+ run again, and to change language.dat to load only hyphen.tex
+ bu default.
+ The most important change is that the pattern loading code now
+ checks if the pattern file set the values vor \left- and
+ \righthyphenmin. If not defaults are provided. The values so
+ found are stored in \extras<language>.
+ The error messages have been rewritten to use the new LaTeX
+ error interface when that is available.
+
+ This has been available on CTAN for a while now, I just forgot
+ to announce it.
+
+ Happy TeXing,

+Subject: Multiple page postscrip include?
+
+Recently I've needed to include a several page poscript file inside a
+LaTeX document, but haven't had much success. I am reasonably
+experienced at including single encapsulated postscript files in LaTeX
+documents, but have had no success with multiple page files.
+
+I need to include some publications within a thesis, and would prefer
+that the entire document be formed as a single LaTeX file.
+
+Any help is appreciated.

+I assume you're using dvips (most people are, but you don't say)
+
+The documentation explains how to include encapsulated PostScript, and
+I had read it as saying that this is the *only* thing you can include.
+

+
+You have the PostScript of the publications? Do you also have access
+to the LaTeX original? If so, could you not hack that into your
+document? If not, you're into either hacking single pages out of the
+PostScript, or using some sort of psconcat program (of which I know of
+none, but no doubt they exist somewhere or other...).

+

+ c/o 1 Eymore Close

+ Birmingham B29 4LB
+
+together with a cheque payable to UKTUG for 24.00 pounds
+
+This service is offered by Peter Abbott, who is UK TUG treasurer; he does
+not hold stocks of books, they are despatched directly from Addison-Wesley
+on receipt of an order from Peter. When books are ordered, Peter
+appreciates notification of delivery as he withholds payment until he
+knows that the goods have been delivered undamaged.
+
+This offer is *only* available to members of UKTUG (this is a condition
+imposed on us by Addison-Wesley), I'm afraid. Since Peter also maintains
+our membership records, it's not easy to pull the wool over his eyes...
+
+Those who are *not* UK TUG members are welcome to join to take advantage
+of this offer -- mail UKTuG-Enquiries@tex.ac.uk, or pull a formatted
+membership form by anon ftp from
+ ftp.cl.cam.ac.uk:/users/rf/uktug/membership.<r>ps.gz
+where <r> is the resolution of your printer (300, 400 or 600).

+
+
+Announcing the release of LexiTeX 2.0b. LexiTeX is a LaTeX style
+that permits the handling of citations in a way similar to BibTeX;
+a list of citations can be maintained, and references in the text
+can be by way of nickname references to the list.
+
+Differences between LexiTeX and BibTeX include:
+
+ - LexiTeX citations must be written in a special syntax.
+ - Citations appear in the text or in footnotes, rather
+ than in an appended bibliography (although tables of
+ authorities can be generated); full citation cross-referencing
+ is supported.
+ - In-text citations appear in the document on the first pass
+ (tables of authorities require running makeindex and a second
+ pass).
+ - Citations may be entered directly into the document.
+
+Version 2.0b of LexiTeX has been placed in the /incoming
+directory of ftp.tex.ac.uk.
+
+New features of this release include:
+
+ - a list of citation declarations can be included at the
+ top of a document.
+ - the entire distribution is now in `doc' format, and the
+ documentation is much simplified and *much* improved.
+ - a bug that caused {\em supra} to be used instead of
+ {\em id.} under some conditions has been fixed.
+
+In this distribution, the manual is accurate, the code is
+up to date (one minor bug fix is pending), and the code
+commentary is in need of some revision.
+
+Further and better particulars are contained in the distribution.
+Anyone with an interest in bibliography packages is encouraged to have
+a look; comments are welcomed.

+Subject: Problems with LaTeX 2e
+
+I have recently installed LaTeX 2e (version <1994/06/01> patch level 2).
+When I try and format a document which works OK under LaTeX 2.09,
+I see this error:
+
+[2] (unixbook.toc
+! Extra }, or forgotten \endgroup.
+<recently read> \egroup
+
+l.8 ...tect \numberline {3.1}Unix workstations}{4}
+
+?
+
+I have found that by deleting all the output files (.toc, .idx, .aux,
+.lof etc) the document formats. But I need to run it through LaTeX
+at least twice for the contents and tables to be incorperated into
+the document!
+
+What am I doing wrong?

+I have a problem that I have not been able to solve by reading the

+"preface", "bibliography" and "index" (e.g. like the table of contents

+
+The problem is that \chapter performs \clearpage in report class,
+\cleardoublepage in book class (you don't say which you're using).
+
+The safe way, therefore, is to say
+
+ \clearpage % or \cleardoublepage
+ \addcontentsline...
+ \chapter*{Preface} % or bibliography or index
+
+You don't say where you're putting the \addcontentsline w.r.t. the

+all cases.

+
+The best way to get headings of funny `sections' like
+prefaces in the the table of contents is to use the
+counter secnumdepth described on pages 157 and 160 of the
+Manual. I use
+ \setcounter{secnumdepth}{-1}
+ \chapter{preface}
+Of course, you have to set secnumdepth back to its usual value
+(which is 2 in the standard styles, I think) before you do
+any `section' which you want to be numbered.
+
+This is why it works. \chapter without the star does
+ (i) put something in the toc file
+ (ii) write the chapter title
+ (iii) if secnumdepth \geq 0 then increase the counter for the
+ chapter and write it out.
+
+The above behaviour is much more predictable than \addtocontents,
+which, IMHO, should be avoided if at all possible.

+Papyrus from Research Software Design should be able to cope with all
+the above. In practice, a number of people use it to generate references
+for direct import into (La)TeX. I have written a few macros to aid
+this process. However, I have read of people preparing BiBTeX files

+Subject: LexiTeX / LexiBib release
+
+Two `doc' files have been placed in the UK CTAN `incoming' directory.
+These are:
+
+lexibib-1.0c.doc: This is a BibTeX style that exports a *.bbl file
+whose entries are in the format required by LexiTeX. This is a
+bare-bones alpha release, which provides only incomplete support
+for a few entry types (books, articles, and Japanese law cases).
+A test database and a sample file are included. Apart from the
+fact that there is no user documentation (yet), highlights of
+the package are the modular design of functions, and fairly
+clear documentation of how the sub-functions used to build
+output in the entry-type functions operate.
+
+lexitex-2.0f.doc: This is a further upgrade of the LexiTeX style,
+with the essential inner workings needed to cooperate with LexiBib.
+An added, as yet undocumented feature is support for leading
+volume numbers for multivolume works. The syntax for this is:
+
+ \lexicite:1:{citenickname}
+
+Where `1' stands for whatever the volume designation is meant
+to be. Any LexiBib book entry with a non-empty volume or
+number field is open to the appending of a volume number with
+\lexicite:?: syntax.
+
+Comments on these files will be most welcome.
+
+Enjoy!

+It is very possible :-) I adapted my PC port of BibTeX to use Eberhard

+Declan, You will need to start off with disc1 and disc2, download the whole
+of them (use dynamic zip file creation---"get" disc1.zip, etc.), then
+you can delete a few of the files, e.g. tex for other processors than yours,
+other printer drivers, etc. All the standard laserjet fonts will take
+up 5-6Mb when decompressed---if you haven't got this much space then
+download metafont: all of disc4 + mfware2 from disc5. This will
+generate the fonts you actually use, but is quite a lot of hassle.
+By the way I think the dvi drivers ore on disc3, if so you need this
+as well.
+
+Incidentally, TeX won't work very well if you don't get the shift key
+mended on your keyboard.

+
+I can't find _any_ .lj files; which were you talking of?
+
+Anyway, having said that, the whole kit is packaged up neatly to take
+account of the requirement to load it onto floppies. You need the
+floppy-fulls from systems/msdos/emtex/disk* and those from
+systems/msdos/emtex-fonts/lj_fonts/disk*
+
+I would also recommend taking the betatest stuff, particularly if
+you've got a 386 or better with more than 640K memory. If you want to
+run current LaTeX, you need a bigTeX, and tex386 is big regardless.
+
+There's lots of documentation (but remember that it appears both in
+English and German -- if there's a .ger file that looks interesting,
+chase up the corresponding .eng file; there are separate English and
+German directories somewhere on the tree, too).
+
+Installation is easy if you've disc space to play with (I have). In
+your situation, it'll be more time consuming, since you'll need to
+establish which stuff you need and which you don't (I've 80 or more
+executables in my emTeX directory of which I use about 10).
+
+emTeX could do with a configuration mechanism, but the chances seem
+small. If you had a CD-ROM drive, I'm told that the 4all-TeX CD does
+the necessary.
+
+One final point -- if you chose to join the UK TeX users' group (see
+details at the end of the digest), you will be able to get a current
+version on floppy for a moderate price, thus saving all the tedium of
+acquiring the stuff by ftp (it _is_ tedious -- I pulled my copy by ftp
+when the archive was still in Aston).

+Subject: The status of the `uk.tex' newsgroup
+
+Long ago, when I set up a news server, uk.tex was a pseudo-group at every
+site I knew of. I couldn't get a feed of it, and I implemented it as a
+moderated group with moderator address uktex@tex.ac.uk, into which I fed
+the incoming mail of the digest.
+
+Somehow, since then, the status has changed, apparently everywhere --
+there are irregular postings to the group, apparently treating it as a
+low-volume version of comp.text.tex
+
+I feel that (in the presence of c.t.t) we really shouldn't continue with
+the status quo. Either we do away with the mailing-list version and junk
+the group altogether (relying on comp.text.tex as the source of all
+wisdom), or -- as I would prefer -- we change the status of uk.tex to
+moderated by a puckah newgroup message.
+
+My preferred course makes it possible for people who don't receive news in
+their site to continue to receive UKTeX (and in particular, to have a
+route through which they can make enquiries and receive answers thereto).
+
+If I don't hear an overwhelming flood of moans, I propose to initiate
+discussion of the change by a thread in uk.net; mail me if you want to
+moan, and I'll prepare a summary which I'll post here.

+Subject: A puzzle: multline environments in amstex (from LaTeX2e)
+
+Hello
+
+Here is an interesting puzzle:
+
+A PUZZLE:----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Suppose that I am perverse enough to want to define the following:
+
+\newcommand{\BMLine}{\begin{multline}}
+\newcommand{\EMLine}{\end{multline}}
+
+I then use it as for example
+
+\BMLine
+x = 3 \\
+ = 2 + 1 \\
+ = 1 + 1 + 1
+\EMLine
+
+Does this work?
+
+NOTE: I am using the most recent LaTeX2e distribution (from ftp.tex.ac.uk)
+and the amstex contained in latex2e/packages/amslatex. I am also
+bending the rules by using the full LaTeX2e syntax (\documentclass{article}
+\usepackage{amstex})... however (if I am correct) this does not effect the
+answer...
+
+ANSWER:-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+No.
+
+Deep inside the file amstex.sty one finds that \multline calls the macro
+\collect@body which collects the body of the environment. The macro
+\collect@body in turn calls the macro \collect@@body which actually
+does the collection. The macro \collect@@body is defined as follows:
+
+\def\collect@@body#1\end#2{...
+
+This means that TeX MUST FIND the \end to be satisfied. Unfortunately
+my perverse redirection makes \collect@@body find \EMLine and not \end.
+The result is that TeX reads to the end of the paragraph and gives up!
+
+Note that the following code does work (without \usepackage{amstex}!)
+
+\newcommand{\BEqnAr}{\begin{eqnarray}}
+\newcommand{\EEqnAr}{\end{eqnarray}}
+
+\BEqnAr
+x &=& 3 \\
+ &=& 2 + 1 \\
+ &=& 1 + 1 + 1
+\EEqnAr
+
+Since the LaTeX2e eqnarray environment collects its body differently!
+
+A QUESTION:---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+SHOULD ams-latex collect its environment bodies in this way?

+
+This is probably a daft question (I'm still new at LaTex), but here goes:
+
+I am running AMS-Latex, and wish to mark sections of a document only to
+be printed in the draft versions. I had therefore placed the following
+environment definitions:
+
+\newenvironment{Draft}{ \begin{quotation} \em}{ \end{quotation} }
+%\newenvironment{Draft}{ \begin{comment} }{ \end{comment} }
+
+Then any sections which should only be printed in the draft could be
+marked by \begin{Draft} ... \end{Draft}.
+
+However, when I switch to 'final copy' mode (by moving the comment), I
+get an error message:
+
+ Runaway argument?
+ ! File ended while scanning use of \next.
+ <inserted text>
+ \par
+ ...
+ l.34 \input{p6}
+
+Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

+
+I don't use AMSLaTeX, and have never examined its comment environment,
+but the chances are that it's a verbatim-type thing. This means, in
+effect, that you're putting a verbatim environment in the argument of
+a macro (it's not as simple as that, but the effect is the same); TeX
+never finds the \end{comment} and ends up trying to gobble every last
+bit of your file as comment.
+
+Having told you what's wrong, I'm afraid I can't offer an alternative.
+You'll likely need some internals sort of command, and (as I said) I
+don't know AMSLaTeX.

+
+The file I believe being referred to is in
+ /tex-archive/macros/latex209/contrib/misc/psboxit.sty
+on the CTAN hosts (ftp.TeX.ac.uk, ftp.DANTE.de, ftp.SHSU.edu, and their
+mirrors). Definitely the same author and same filename identified in TLC.
+I'll admit that I haven't used this with 2e (yet), but it worked marvelously
+under 2.09. Also, unless there's something I've inadvertantly overlooked,
+the file doesn't appear to need any retrofitting to be compatible with 2e.
+
+For reference, you can always use the command
+ quote site index psboxit
+in an interactive ftp session on the CTAN hosts to get a listing of where
+all files with the (case insensitive) string "psboxit" reside. This
+command will NOT work if you use a hyphen as the first character of your
+password -- messages from the ftp server must be left turned on. Also,
+some ftp clients may not require the "quote" part of the example above;
+your mileage may vary. Obviously, replace "psboxit" with whatever it is
+you are looking for.
+
+Finally, to get a listing of the mirrors of the CTAN (now at 20 full or
+partial mirrors in 11 countries on 4 continents -- sorry for the plug; you
+don't know how good that feels to those of us involved with this monster!)
+you can "finger" the address
+ ctan_us@ftp.SHSU.edu
+and get a listing or you can retrieve the file tex-archive/CTAN.sites from
+one of the CTAN hosts.

+
+Hi,
+
+I was wondering if any reader of this group can recommend
+a powerful macro package for including postscript figures?
+
+I am aware there are sveral packages around and have played
+with a few in the past, none of them being particularly
+satisfactory.
+
+What I am really after is a package which can cope with
+all kinds of perverse postscript files, not just encapsulated
+well structured one. You see I use various software packages, with
+all kinds of postscript drivers to produce figures. So
+I want something robust enough to allow me to flexibly handle
+anything called "postscript" which is thrown at me.
+
+Ideally it would also allow me to scale and rotate figures
+easily.
+
+I use the dvips (5.518) that comes with TeX C version 3.141

+
+You don't say what macros you want it to work with: I know about plain
+TeX (though I hardly ever use it), LaTeX2.09 (which I've pretty much
+given up) and LaTeX2e.
+
+You're probably asking more than the world can supply (since I
+occasionally receive `PostScript' which no _printer_ here can deal
+with, expecting that of a macro package is probably rather much), but
+the LaTeX2e graphics package seems pretty robust as these things go,
+and it does what you want. Of course, if the input isn't encapsulated
+PostScript, you have to tell the macros vital things like the actual
+size of the picture.
+
+>I use the dvips (5.518) that comes with TeX C version 3.141

+
+It's not the most up to date, but then your TeX isn't either. dvips
+is one of many that the graphics package supports, and it's the one
+with the fullest feature set. You'll probably not have to change.

+
+No powerful macro package can help you. At the end of the day
+all of them just emit a \special command which tells dvips to
+insert the PostScript file. The PostScript fundamentally has
+to be "clean" enough to run in the environment that the PostScript
+generated by dvips presents it with.
+
+I think your only hope is something that can take your PostScript
+and do a partial interpretation of it, and producing as output
+a "clean" PostScript program which generates the equivalent graphics
+primitives. I have a vague feeling that somebody once told me of

+
+Yes, ghostscript can! I have used it to interpret "perverse postscript
+files" which were too perverse for my printer. I used Ghostscript to
+interpret the file and generate a 300dpi pbm file (portable bitmap).
+The pbmplus package includes a program which turns a pbm file back into
+postscript. Of course, it generates nice encapsulated postscript

+Yes, that is indeed one possible approach, and is very close to what I

+
+I recommend at least trying the rather new emTeX betatest BibTeX,
+which is available on ftp.tex.ac.uk:/tex-archive/systems/msdos/emtex/
+betatest/bibtexb1.zip
+
+I haven't tried it myself, but the documentation does say (inter alia)
+
+ - The maximum length if input lines (.aux file) has been increased
+ from 1000 to 2000 characters
+
+ - The maximum number of wizard-defined functions has been increased
+ from 3000 to 5000
+
+If you still have problems, look to see if your copy of ieee.bst has
+proper line terminations in it. If BibTeX isn't seeing the end of
+line, it may try and load the whole file into a buffer intended for
+just one line.

+Subject: AGM and committee elections: reminder
+
+
+ Final Announcement of Annual General Meeting
+
+The Annual General Meeting of the UKTUG will be held at 1030 on
+ Wednesday 19~October 1994 at the University of Warwick,
+in the Staff Club `Quiet Room' in Rootes Building.
+
+A draft agenda for the meeting is in Baskerville 4.4.
+
+Lunch will be available after the AGM, and will be followed by an ordinary
+meeting on {\it What's up doc?} Further details of the afternoon meeting,
+including a booking form, are in Baskerville 4.4.
+
+There is no charge for the AGM itself, but members who wish to stay for the
+afternoon meeting will have to pay. Non-members are not permitted to
+participate in the AGM but are welcome to attend the afternoon meeting.
+
+All members of the UK TeX Users' Group are urged to attend the AGM.
+Agenda item~11 specifically seeks your opinion on future meetings:
+where? when? how often? what topics? talks or training?
+regular or flexible schedule? The Committee
+needs your input in order to plan the meetings that the membership wants.
+
+The Constitution contains the following clauses:
+
+17. The annual general meeting of the UKTUG shall be held in the
+United Kingdom not later than the last day of November in each year
+on a date and at a time to be fixed by the Committee and notified
+to members at least 35 days in advance for the following purposes---
+
+(1) to receive from the Committee a report balance sheet and statement of
+accounts for the preceding financial year
+
+(2) to fill the vacancies in the Committee and to appoint auditors for the
+ensuing year
+
+(3) to decide on any motion which may be proposed to the meeting in the
+manner provided below
+
+(4) to fix the entrance fee (if any) and annual subscription
+
+18. Any member desirous of proposing any motion at the
+annual general meeting shall give notice in writing to the secretary not
+later than 14 days before the date of such meeting
+
+23. No amendment (other than a motion for adjournment) shall be moved to any
+motion proposed at any annual or special general meeting unless written notice
+of the amendment shall have been sent to the secretary prior to the meeting
+
+I think that Clauses 17(3), 18 and 23 are self-explanatory.
+
+Having seen the draft agenda in Baskerville, anyone wishing to propose
+any other motion to the AGM must send me, in writing, the text of the
+proposed motion and their own name and address, to reach me by
+5~October 1994. If there are any changes to the draft agenda,
+the final agenda will be sent to members in the 14 days before
+the AGM. Anyone wishing, at that stage, to move
+any amendment to any motion, must send me, in writing, the text of
+the proposed amendment and their own name and address, to reach me
+by 18 October 1994.
+
+
+As for vacancies on the Committee, C. A. Rowley will continue as Chair in
+1994--94 and P. Abbott as Treasurer and Membership Secretary.
+M. Clark, J. Fine and A. S. A. Jeffrey are eligible and willing to continue
+their Committee membership. C. Hewlett and R. Fairbairns must retire but are
+eligible and willing to stand for re-election.
+Thus there are up to 7 vacancies to be filled, and at least
+5 nominations are needed from outside the present Committee.
+
+
+The following parts of Clause 10 describe the procedure for
+filling these vacancies:
+
+(3) Any two members who are individuals may nominate any member or
+members of the group who are individuals to fill any of the vacancies
+by giving at least 7~days notice in writing to the secretary
+
+(4) If there are more nominations than vacancies then the membership
+will be decided by an election by single transferable vote in which
+every member of the UKTUG who is an individual and is present at the
+annual general meeting shall be entitled but not obliged to vote
+
+Nominations for committee members in accordance with the above
+sub-clauses are thus being sought. Written nominations for new committee
+members should be sent to me, to reach me by 12~October 1994.
+There is no official nomination form. If you like, you may use the
+forms provided in Baskerville 4.3 and Baskerville 4.4. Otherwise,
+what you send me should contain, clearly and legibly,
+
+ ---name and address of nominee
+ ---declaration that (s)he is willing to stand for this
+ office, signed by the nominee
+ ---name and address of the nominator
+ ---statement nominating the nominee, signed by the
+ nominator
+ ---name and address of seconder
+ ---statement in support of the nomination, signed by
+ the seconder.
+
+The nominee, nominator and seconder should all be members of the UKTUG,
+and the last two should be different from each other.
+
+Once elected, the Committee appoints officers from its membership.
+Your present secretary is retiring (forced to under Clause 10(1)) and
+there is at present no Publicity person. Anyone with talents for either
+of these jobs is strongly encouraged to stand for election to the Committee.
+
+In all the above, `in writing' means `on paper', not email.
+
+Please put `UKTUG' on the outside of the envelope when you send me any
+of the above. Otherwise, people may find themselves elected to the
+wrong committee.

+From: David_Rhead@vme.ccc.nottingham.ac.uk
+Subject: LaTeX: emphasis within emphasis
+
+The LaTeX standard classes implement \emph{...} and {\em...} as italic.
+For `emphasis within emphasis', \emph{\emph{...}}, they revert to roman.
+
+In certain types of passage, this can have the unfortunate effect of making
+the *most important* text look *completely unimportant*. E.g.,
+ ... \emph{text text \emph{text text} text text} ...
+looks the same to a reader as
+ ... \emph{text text} text text \emph{text text} ...
+
+I'm trying to produce a class file in which `emphasis within emphasis' is
+implemented differently. My current thinking is to try and implement it as
+underlined italic. (Yes, I know that the `Companion' says that
+`underlining is considered bad practice in the publishing world'. But [1]
+`emphasis within emphasis' only occurs rarely, so the underlining would
+only occur rarely [2] my British Telecom bills, which look professionally
+designed, use underlining for `emphasis within italic' and it looks OK to
+me [3] I can't offhand think of another neat way of indicating `emphasis
+within italic' -- e.g., \uppercase{...} wouldn't emphasise acronyms, since
+they are already uppercase.)
+
+Unfortunately, I can't find a convenient bit of code to hack at. The
+fragment I found in latex.ltx is
+ \DeclareRobustCommand\em
+ {\@nomath\em \ifdim \fontdimen\@ne\font >\z@
+ \upshape \else \itshape \fi}
+ \DeclareTextFontCommand{\emph}{\em}
+which doesn't seem obviously hackable into something I could stick in a
+class file to make \emph{\emph{...}} give underlined italic. Donald
+Arseneau's ulem package (`Companion', section 3.1.2) seems worth a look, in
+case it would do what I want, but I can't find it in the Cambridge archive.
+
+Could anyone point me to some code fragments that, when hacked together,
+would enable me to put a chunk of code in a class file such that:
+* ordinary `emphasis' is mapped to italic, as in the standard classes
+* `emphasis within emphasis' is mapped to `underlined italic'?
+Better still, has anyone already produced such a chunk of code?

+
+Use \binoppenalty=10000 and \relpenalty=10000. These are the
+penalties for breaking around binary ops or relations, and setting

+
+You need to rebuild your TeX system from the sources. This is not
+something for the faint-hearted, but if you know what you're doing
+it's not too bad.
+
+What's the context of the problem? While it *is* possible to run out
+of strings, it's fairly rare. Can you post the (end of the) .log file
+(which would tell us how `standard' your setup is -- ours here allows
+11K strings).

+
+Module 11 of the Web source for TeX. If you looked at it, you'ld
+understand.

+Subject: Bib style using key as label?
+
+I need to find a bibliography style file that would use the key as the label.
+
+For example a style file that would create a Bibliography entry that would use
+ABB91(the given KEY) as the label.
+
+@article{ABB91,
+ author = {Abbas Abbas et. al.},
+ journal = {In IMS91},
+ key = {ABB91},
+ title = {"Multidatabase Management in Pegasus"}
+}
+
+ALPHA style does this for entries with one author, but when there are more than
+one author it uses the first letters of each surname as the label. e.g. for the
+entry
+@article{AGR89,
+ author = {R. Agrawal and N.H. Gehani},
+ journal = {Proceedings ACM SIGMOD},
+ key = {AGR89},
+ title = {ODE (Object Database and Environment): The language and the data mo
+del},
+ year = {1989}
+}
+
+it creates as the label AG89. I need a style that would create AGR89 (the given
+KEY) for this entry as well.
+
+I have tried to modify the alpha.bst file, but it looks very complicated for me
+and I couldn't find any information on the language used other than bxtbst.doc.
+
+Hope someone knows a style file that would do this or if anybody can explain me
+how and where to change the .bst file to do this.
+
+Sorry for the longness of the request.
+
+Thanx.

+Subject: Inserting space
+
+I hope you cna help me. Our local texperts are proving silent on this question.
+
+We have at Sussex a thing called thesis.sty which we use for writing
+theses, but the problem may occur in other latex styles.
+
+I am not a Texer so can not write in this language.
+
+The problem is to do with the list of figures. It seems to have a fixed
+amount of space between the numbering and the caption. This works fine
+until you have a chapter number > 9 and a figure no. > 9. Then ther
+is no space left before your caption starts.
+
+AN EXAMPLE
+
+ 1.1 The ......
+ 2.10 The......
+ 10.1 The ......
+ 10.10The ......
+
+I would not like to see the mess produced if you had more than 99 figures!
+
+many thanks for your attention

+
+Ok, edit your CONFIG.SYS, and include the line:
+
+SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /e:1024 /p
+
+Note, that I have assumed that COMMAND.COM is on the C drive, at the
+top level. If it is anywhere else, addapt the line accoringly!
+

+
+This specifies that 1024 bytes of memory should be allocated for the
+environment and path variables.

+
+The solution of your problem is quite simple.
+Increase the environment space allocate for COMMAND.COM.
+To do this add in your CONFIG.SYS file the line:
+SHELL=c:\dos\command.com /e:720
+where 720 is the number of bytes for the environment. Adjust it to your
+system's needs.
+
+hope that helps

+
+I don't have a hplj yet, but I'm planning to aquire one in the future
+so I've decided to start trying to produce 600dpi METAFONTs... So, I
+changed the file LOCAL.MF and added another `def' named ``hpdouble'',
+where the settings are the same of the ``hplaser'' just that the
+resolution I set to 600dpi. I had to rebuild CM.BAS and PLAIN.BAS by
+typing MF -i CM.INI and MF -i PLAIN.INI (MF -i is INITMF, just like
+INITEX).
+
+Then I defined another variable (dlj) on MODES.MFJ where I tell MJob
+to put the fonts in the directory \NEWFONTS\PIXEL.DLJ\$rDPI and the
+TFM's on \NEWFONTS\PIXEL.DLJ\TFM.
+
+Then I fired MFJOB m=dlg all. And for the next few hours he ran MF
+in all Computer Modern! I checked with PKEDIT one of that fonts and
+it's really much bigger (on the screen) than those that were made
+with 300dpi, so I think it worked out alright, but as I've said I
+don't have (yet) a 600dpi laser printer (I have only an epson...).
+
+I'm sorry to give only a literal explanation without examples of the
+files that were really modified, since I'm writing from the terminal
+of my university and my TeX installation is at my home computer...

+Subject: re: Inserting space
+
+ [Robert Davidge asks:]
+ I hope you cna help me. Our local texperts are proving silent on this
+ question.
+
+ We have at Sussex a thing called thesis.sty which we use for writing
+ theses, but the problem may occur in other latex styles.
+
+ I am not a Texer so can not write in this language.
+
+ The problem is to do with the list of figures. It seems to have a
+ fixed amount of space between the numbering and the caption. This
+ works fine until you have a chapter number > 9 and a figure no. > 9.
+ Then ther is no space left before your caption starts.
+
+ AN EXAMPLE
+
+ 1.1 The ......
+ 2.10 The......
+ 10.1 The ......
+ 10.10The ......
+
+ I would not like to see the mess produced if you had more than 99
+ figures!
+
+(You'd get an overfull hbox message, and the line would shift to the right,
+with the number still butted up against the text.)
+
+In the standard styles, the formatting of a table of contents and list of
+figures line is defined through commands with names like \l@section,
+\l@chapter, \l@figure, and so on. The higher-level "\l@" commands often
+have idiosyncratic special definitions, but most "\l@" commands - and most
+likely all those that likely to have this problem - use a LaTeX internal
+utility command called \@dottedtocline to do all the real work. Here are
+some examples from the "book" style file:
+
+\def\l@section{\@dottedtocline{1}{1.5em}{2.3em}}
+\def\l@subsection{\@dottedtocline{2}{3.8em}{3.2em}}
+...
+\def\l@figure{\@dottedtocline{1}{1.5em}{2.3em}}
+\let\l@table\l@figure %i.e., make them the same
+
+The arguments provided to \@dottedtocline are:
+
+ \@dottedtocline{LEVEL}{INDENT}{NUMWIDTH}{TITLE}{PAGE}
+
+The last two will actually be provided as arguments of the corresponding "\l@"
+command. LEVEL is the nesting level (related to the tocdepth counter).
+INDENT is the indentation of the first line of the entry from the left margin
+of the containing environment. NUMWIDTH is the size you are concerned about:
+The unit number will be left-justified in a box of this width, which will be
+placed immediately to the left of the TITLE. (NUMWIDTH also sets the indenta-
+tion for any subsequent lines in this entry, if you have a very long section
+title. This actually isn't likely to happen except for figures - and even
+then, it's usually a bad idea.)
+
+So: Take a look at your style file and search for definitions of the "\l@"
+commands of interest. Increase the NUMWIDTH argument, and you should have
+more room for all your various sections, subsections, and so on. Note that
+you'll need to apply a little thought to what sizes you choose, since you
+are controlling the indentation of the line, not "just" the size of the
+box containing the number.

+
+The spacing is controlled by the macro \l@figure in the style file.
+In the versions of LaTeX I've used this is defined as a `dotted-line
+contents macro' with three parameters, two of them for spacing. When
+I ran into the same problem I just redefined \l@figure with larger
+values for the spacing parameters. It was for a previous job so I
+don't have the LaTeX anymore, but your local TeXperts should be able
+to show you how to do it.

+
+The processing of the list of figures ends up with the command
+\l@figure which has to be defined in the style (actually is in
+article.sty, book.sty, report.sty). Its default definition is:
+
+\newcommand\l@figure{\@dottedtocline{1}{1.5em}{2.3em}}
+
+The first argument of \@dottedtocline is used only in the table of
+contents, so do not change its value. The second argument is the
+total indentation and the third argument is the width of the box for
+numbers. This is the value which you should increase. If you need
+e.g. 3.5em, you have to redefine \l@figure (and similarly \l@table
+for the list of tables) as:
+
+\renewcommand\l@figure{\@dottedtocline{1}{1.5em}{3.5em}}
+
+Remember that commands containing ``@'' as a part of the name are
+not allowed in the document. The easiest way is to make your own
+style which may contain just the line given above, call it e.g.
+mylof.sty and then use
+
+\documentstyle[mylof]{...}
+
+in LaTeX2.09, or
+
+\documentclass{...}
+\usepackage{mylof}
+
+in LaTeX2e.

+Subject: re: latex: emphasis within emphasis
+
+in uktex 94 #36, you've brought up the problem that using ordinary
+lightface type for emphasis within italic emphasis makes the "*most
+important* text look *completely unimportant*".
+
+i can't give you a latex solution, but i have observed that in the
+u.s. publication "national geographic", where captions for photographs
+and other graphics are routinely set in italic, elements that would
+be "emphasized" (latin botanical names, names of ships, et al.) are
+sent in an unslanted italic, so the letterforms are not the same
+as ordinary roman text. i can't tell you how long this practice
+has been in effect, but i did check once, and believe that it
+predates knuth's cmu* font. i believe that the fonts used in the
+"geographic" were designed specifically for that publication, so
+this is obviously quite intentional. if not necessarily entirely
+traditional. this might be an idea you could use rather than
+underlining.

+Subject: Q: BibTeX and HTML
+
+I want to use bibtex citations in a latex document (easy) and generate
+a html document thereof (also easy) as follows (not so easy):
+
+ - write the latex document and use a command \htmlcite
+ for citations
+
+ - in the {dvi,ps} version the \htmlcite should be expanded
+ to some reference like [Tex94] with the corresponding
+ entry in the bibliography. That's plain bibtex.
+
+ - in the html version, which is generated using some latex2html
+ program, the \htmlcite should be expanded to a reference
+ [Tex94], which is linked to the corresponding bibliography
+ entry. That's plain latex2html.
+
+ - but: the entry in the bibliography should contain the URL of
+ the document and the URL should be sensitive, i.e. a link
+ to "itself" (the original version of the referenced document).
+
+
+A quick and dirty solution to this is to put the URL in one of the
+fields of a document's bibtex entry using a command from html.sty that
+expands to a sensitve URL.
+
+A nicer solution would be to define an entry type HyperDoc for .bib files
+that contains a field URL: which gets translated into some construct in
+the corresponding .bbl file that can be processed appropriatly by
+latex2html. Therefore you'd need a special bibtex style file.
+
+I could imagine I'm not the first to need this. Does anyone know of
+a solution? Any help is greatly appreciated (please email to me or post
+to comp.text.tex).

+
+This was a bug (or feature) of earlier releases of LaTeX2e.
+It would go away if you got the most recent release from one of the 3 CTANs,
+eg ftp.tex.ac.uk, in /tex-archive/macros/latex/unpacked
+(or in packed version in .../latex/base),
+and created a new format file
+(there is a Makefile.unx so you can just say "make"
+and then -- after putting in target directories in the Makefile --
+"make install").
+Nb You don't need to upgrade or change the basic tex programs in any way.
+
+If you don't want to do this
+you can print any character in a font by eg \symbol{93};
+and you can print out the font to find where characters are
+by "latex testfont" -- you will be asked what font you want.

+on the formats required. I would prefer to have one which is able to
+be previewed before printing be cause there is a quota for free laser

+
+In order to do this in a remotely sensible way, you need to use
+LaTeX2e (which you obviously don't). Once you're using 2e, there's a
+fontinst package which does the necessary for you. It's not
+(particularly) for the faint-hearted, but it does work pretty well.
+
+Note that there's a CHEST deal on a decent subset of the Monotype
+fonts CD, which you may be able to persuade your University to
+subscribe to, at a useful saving of the contents of your pocket.
+
+Once you've got it, there's the question of preview...
+
+>I am using a Solaris 5.3 Workstation (Openwindows) connected to a
+>QMS-ps810 postcript printer ( I think it is a Hewlett-Packard).
+
+I use ghostview on my PostScript output, but there really ought to be
+some better one available to you -- ask around your place.

+
+Installing LaTeX2e is (imho) a doddle, but it does require disc space.
+
+Running fontinst is (as I said) non-trivial, but once you've got the
+hang of it it's pretty mechanical. The big problem (imho) is choosing
+the font you actually want to use (indeed, choosing a selection of
+fonts that match -- a serifed family, an unserifed family, and a
+monospaced family, all of which match each other, are needed.

+Peter Eckel asks for a HP Laserjet 4P driver that will work at 600dpi.
+
+Unless someone comes up with something better, I suggest modifying Nelson
+Beebe's dvijep. Beebe's drivers support a wide variety of printers, and the
+resolution they assume is configurable by just changing a #define in one of
+the files. You would probably have to change a couple of other things - for
+example, the commands generated to load fonts probably implicitly assume or
+specify 300dpi - but it should be pretty simple; Beebe's code is well written
+and easy to understand and modify.

+Subject: TrueType vs. METAFONT
+
+
+ One of the biggest problems with TeX is the size of its METAFONT
+fonts. On my computer, I renderized a full set of Computer Modern for
+a 300dpi Laser (which I do not have yet), and the PK total font size
+grew up to 5000kb! Imagine then the total smash that will be when I
+buy a 600 dpi!! Due to an obvious lack of disk space, I decided to
+try another TeX package, PCTeXWIN, which uses TrueType fonts as a
+replacement for the METAFONT fonts so well designed by Knuth on late
+70, 80 and util 90! Actually, the size of the TTF is much smaller
+than the PK's, but since I don't have a laser printer I cannot
+determine whether type produces the best output. I think that
+because the way METAFONT fonts are made, they are much, much better
+than any TrueType version since TrueTypes are designed by hand and
+their magnifications steps don't take care of details like serifs and
+degrees of roundness etc, as METAFONT do. (I'm sorry, I don't
+understand nothing of METAFONT nor TT, so excuse my mistakes).
+
+ Anyone who has already tryed both versions can show me the best?
+ (tough MF seems to me to be the BEST ever!)

+
+As a general rule you can always get what's available from any CTAN
+archive. In our case, the local one is ftp.tex.ac.uk (here in
+Cambridge).
+
+There are some cm ones in tex-archive/fonts/cm/pk; there are .zip
+files of sets at 120, 240 and 300 dpi, and at 300 dpi for a write-
+white printer engine.

+Subject: Time delay in web2c-6.1 LaTeX2e
+
+If I put a simple LaTeX 2.09 test file
+ \documentstyle[11pt]{article} \begin{document} Text \end{document}
+through LaTeX 2.09, it takes about 5 seconds from when I press [return] to
+when I get my next prompt from the Unix shell. (The TeX was built from
+web2c some years ago.)
+
+If I put the LaTeX2e equivalent
+ \documentclass[11pt]{article} \begin{document} Text \end{document}
+through LaTeX 2e, it takes 15-to-20 seconds to do the same thing. The TeX,
+LaTeX2e, etc., were built recently from Karl Berry's web2c-6.1, which gives
+TeX version 3.1415 (C version 6.1) and LaTeX2e patch level 4. The C
+compiler was gcc 2.5.8 with optimization turned on. As far as I know,
+there are no relevant hardware differences (i.e., I think the web2c-6.1
+LaTeX 2.1 material is on the same disk as the LaTeX 2.09 material and can
+be accessed as quickly).
+
+With the web2c-6.1 LaTeX2e, the time seems to be spent in initialization
+somewhere. E.g., if I go
+ latex2e no-such-file
+it takes about 15 seconds before I get told
+ I can't find file `no-such-file'.
+If I go
+ latex2e test
+where test.tex contains just
+ \documentclass[11pt]{article} \begin{document} Text \end{document}
+it takes about 15 seconds between the
+ ... patch level 4
+and
+ ... article.cls
+messages.
+
+The phenomemenon has been observed on a SUN and on an ICL DRS6000. It is
+stopping us putting LaTeX2e into user service (since the users' perception
+would be that "This so-called improvement actually makes things worse".)
+
+Can anyone offer any insight into why there might be this delay, and what
+we can do to avoid it?

+Subject: Proposed merger of UKTeX with TeXhax
+
+It's proposed to merge the UKTeX Digest and TeXhax Digest to form
+one TeX-oriented digest of e-mail questions, answers and announcements.
+
+Since the UK TeX Archive (formerly at Aston University, now located at
+Cambridge University) has now become part of the Comprehensive TeX
+Archive Network (CTAN), there's no longer any real need for a
+UK-oriented TeX digest, for which UKTeX was set up in 1987. A single
+digest for discussing all TeX matters simplifies the issue of "which
+digest do I post to, or should I post to both?". The intention is to
+merge the lists of subscribers at the end of this year and that after
+that date, articles posted to UKTeX will continue to be accepted, but
+will appear in TeXhax with articles posted to that digest. TeXhax
+will continue, being the "senior" digest with the larger list of
+subscribers. One difference between the digests is that UKTeX appears
+weekly, while TeXhax appears much less frequently depending on number
+of articles submitted. To begin with, at least, the plan is to post
+the new TeXhax weekly.
+
+Comments are welcomed (directly to me, please) and I'll summarise any
+responses to the digests in a few weeks.

+Subject: Draft of typeset version of the FAQ
+
+The UKTUG committee is working on a new version of the TeX FAQ, for
+publication in the UKTUG magazine Baskerville.
+
+I have just installed the current state of the work on ftp.tex.ac.uk
+in tex-archive/usergrps/uktug/faq/ -- it should propagate to the other
+CTAN sites soon (by the time this digest is published, at least).
+
+We would welcome any comments that interested parties may have to
+make. In particular, additions to the list of `required questions'
+(preferably with ready-supplied answers...) are solicited.
+
+There are one or two queries (the footnotes typeset in typewriter),
+which remain to be answered.
+
+Interesting files are:
+
+*.tex,*.sty should enable you to typeset the document, if that's what
+turns you on... Typesetting requires a current production LaTeX2e
+
+newfaq.dvi typeset to require current psnfss2e-style times and
+ helvetica fonts
+newfaq-cm.dvi typeset in computer modern
+newfaq.ps set for a 300dpi printer (the only remaining one I have
+ access to...)
+required-questions questions that _I_ know remain to be answered
+ChangeLog Well, you might find it interesting (I don't
+ particularly)
+
+A WWW version of the thing is available at URL
+http://www.cogs.susx.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?introduction=yes
+
+We intend to make a plain text version to be fed back to Bobby
+Bodenheimer; the effort proceeds with his blessing...

+I have been trying to run OzTeX Version 1.42 on a PowerMac

+2) The appropriate files (in /ctan/tex-archive/systems/mac/oztex)

+

+
+It is, in the sense that you don't pay a fee to run it, and that the

+
+Are you talking about a PC running MS-DOG? If so, what X server are
+you running? There _is_ an xdvi for PCs, but I've no idea what it's
+capable of.
+
+If you're running MS-DOG or Windoze, the gtex distribution (on
+ftp.tex.ac.uk:/tex-archive/systems/msdos/gtex) is well spoken of.
+
+I use emtex (.../emtex) which runs under MS-DOG or OS/2 out of the
+box. If you go for that, upgrade *immediately* with the betatest
+stuff if you've a 386 or better. The betatest tex386 runs with the
+stuff in .../dpmigcc under Windoze, though I've never tried it.
+
+There's a previewer (not xdvi) with both of those versions.
+
+dvips is available from .../msdos/dviware/dvips
+
+>I need simple instructions on how to get a copy as I know very little
+>about installing software !!
+
+All the things come with a fair bit of documentation. For emtex
+there are, in addition, tex-archive/info/setting-up-emtex.tex and
+installing-emtex.txt. No warranty expressed or implied...
+
+LaTeX2e is on tex-archive/macros/latex/base (you need the whole
+directory). One thing there is emtex.txt, which is emtex-specific
+installation instructions.
+
+>I have looked in the faq at ftp.tex.ac.uk but couldn't find an answer
+
+There's a new faq (work in progress, mind you) on
+tex-archive/usergrps/uktug/faq/newfaq.ps (actually, there are several
+formats there...). Some of this answer came from my sources of that
+stuff.

+Subject: Questions about dvi drivers and previewers
+
+Imperial Software Technology is developing a tool which
+generates hardcopy using LaTeX and included PostScript.
+Naturally we would like this output to work on as many TeX
+systems as possible, so I would be grateful for answers to
+a few questions.
+
+ * What are the commonly used previewers and dvi drivers we should
+ aim to support?
+ * Do any of these programs not support either the "psfile=" or
+ "header=" specials?
+ * Is the LaTeX2e "graphics" package going to become the standard graphics
+ interface? Will other packages support its syntax for compatibility?
+ * According to the manual page, xdvi does not "as yet" support "header="
+ specials. Will it? If so, how soon?
+ * What (if any) are the significant differences between xdvi and xdvik?
+ dvips and dvipsk?
+
+Please email responses.
+
+Thank you in advance,

+Subject: MusicTex - need help!
+
+I'm having some real trouble using Daniel Taupin's MusicTex under LaTex and
+I thought one of you could perhaps help me...
+
+As long as I just typeset music, there's no problem at all, but as soon
+as I try to put any text into the document as well, LaTex screws up my
+typeset music.
+What I tried to do e.g. is this:
+
+\input musicnft
+\documentstyle[bigmusic,musictex,german]{article}
+\begin{document}
+\section{Noten}
+\subsection{Sopran-Solo und Chor}
+\begin{music}
+\parindent 2cm
+\def\nbinstruments{1}\relax
+\def\instrumenti{Sopran}
+\generalmeter{\meterfrac 24}\relax
+\debutmorceau
+\normal
+\temps\Notes\ibu0e2\qh0 e\tbu0\qh0 f\enotes\barre
+....
+\finmorceau
+
+What happens is that LaTex screws up the first line of music after the
+\section or \subsection command - the lines of the staff are too short, i.e.
+the staff ends but there are still bars and notes displayed...
+Further lines of music are generated correctly.
+When I leave out the \section or \subsection commands, everything is
+done correctly, too - but I'd really like to have headings above the score...
+
+If you have any ideas on how to solve this problem, please contact me
+via e-mail, as I unfortunately do not have the time to read this group
+regularly.
+
+Thanks,
+ Enno.

+Subject: problem: tex omits every other word in wrapped lines
+
+We have just installed TeX, Version 3.1415 (C version 6.1). We are
+running SunOS 4.1.3u1. Everything is fine, except that in paragraphs
+in which words are wrapped, the wrapped lines have every other word
+omitted. The space is there for the word, but the text itself is
+missing. For example:
+
+How it should look:
+
+This is a test paragraph. This sentence will wrap and will be missing
+words. This sentence will be ok.
+
+How is really looks:
+
+This a paragraph. sentence wrap will missing
+words. This sentence will be ok.
+
+Using dvitype, we have determined that an overflow is occuring (it
+says so)....we had no problems compiling, so we have no clue where to
+start looking for the problem.
+
+Here's how dvitype should look after the first word of the paragraph:
+

+
+I don't really know what these numbers mean, but the h: things
+continue to be negative, yet words still keep appearing. They return
+to normal for the second sentence of the paragraph (which didn't
+wrap). Also, using the new dvitype, the hh: numbers alternate between
+0 and -2147483648 throughout the entire file, and once the numbers get
+screwed up, they remain so, even for the text that shows up correctly.
+
+Any help at all is greatly appreciated.
+
+Thanks!

+
+You don't say which OS you're running. If it's OSF/1, try the web2c
+distribution; I know it's buildable from that (though I've never done
+it, I just use it). That'll get you the basic Knuthian system and the
+utilities that go with it. (If it's VMS, the distribution is *old*,
+and I know nothing about TeX for NT.)
+
+I would also recommend using dvipsk and xdvik to go with it, since
+they use the same path-searching library.
+
+For LaTeX, I would recommend going straight to 2e for a new
+installation. If you want to stick with the 2.09, you'll have to go
+somewhere other than the archive (cus, which you posted from, stolidly
+maintains several variously out-of-date versions, so you could try
+there). The minimum installation (imo) is the LaTeX base and the
+tools. A new release was due out yesterday, so perhaps by the time
+you've got your executables built it'll be on the archive.

+ I am getting increasingly allergic to paragraph indents in text that

+
+ The parskip package gets rid of most of these, but footnotes still
+ come a paragraph indent and no paragraph separation space - grrr
+
+ Does anybody have a style file that addresses this ?
+
+The parskip package is new to me. However, assuming it does the trick for all
+other cases of concern, it's easy to change the way paragraphing is done in
+footnotes. A footnote is typeset by the \@makefntext command. This command
+is defined by the style file; it will be called in an enviroment where
+\@parboxrestore has been called, so among other things both \parskip and
+\parindent have been reset to 0 pt.
+
+Obligatory typesetting point: The way paragraphs are marked is inherently
+part of the definition of the style. They are intentionally not settable
+parameters of the standard styles. Once you start changing them, you are
+designing your own style. Feel free, but be aware that you (a) will be
+dealing with the *internals* of the style files; (b) are on your own as far
+as typographical quality.
+
+Warning aside, here's the definition of \@makefntext that appears in the
+three standard LaTeX styles (article, book, and report):
+
+ \long\def\@makefntext#1{\parindent 1em\noindent
+ \hbox to 1.8em{\hss$^{\@thefnmark}$}#1}
+
+If you simple change this to leave \parindent alone, and instead change
+\parskip, you should get the effect you want. The best way to do this
+would be in a style file - just put exactly the editted text in your own
+"fnparskip.sty" file, or add it to the end of the parskip.sty file you have
+now. For simple testing, you can also place this definition in your document
+preamble. In that case, put \makeatletter before it and \makeatother after.

+Subject: Wanted: New members for UK TeX Users Group
+
+
+There are many good reasons for joining the UK TeX Users Group.
+Here are two good reasons for joining before the end of the year.
+
+The first is that you will receive the last of issue of Baskerville
+of 1994, which is devoted entirely to answering the 99 most
+frequently answered questions about TeX.
+
+The second is that out of gratitude for your promptness, you will
+save two pounds (out of twenty). And of course you will get the 6
+issues of Baskerville scheduled for 1995.
+
+And there's another reason for joining now. Early next year there
+will be an important meeting:
+
+ Portable Documents: Acrobat, SGML and TeX
+ Bridewell Theatre, off Fleet Street, London
+ January 19th 1995, 10am to 5pm
+
+cosponsored by the BCS Electronic Publishing Special Group. Members of
+UKTUG (and BCS-EPSG) pay only forty pounds (saving ten) if they book
+early.
+
+The moral of this message is to act now. Contact me and I'll put
+the details and forms into the Royal Mail to you. If you give me the
+name and address of someone who you think might be interested, I'll
+send them to that person also.
+
+If this reads a little like an advertisment, it is because it is an
+advertisment. But then again, I am:

+Subject: TeX, how to detect already defined control sequences
+
+Hello,
+
+I would like to know if there is a way, in TeX, to test for
+the existence of a control sequence.
+
+What I want to do is to programmatically detect if a macro
+has already been defined.
+
+I devised this (ugly) piece of code:
+
+ \def\MYMACRO{anything}
+ \ifx\MYMACRO\UNDEFINED
+ The macro is {\it not\/} defined
+ \else
+ The macro {\it is\/} defined
+ \fi
+
+It works, provided that the dummy macro \UNDEFINED is
+*really* undefined!
+
+There must be a more reliable (and elegant!) way to do the
+same thing. Can you give me any hint?
+Thanks in advance.

+Subject: TeXhax/UKTeX merger opinions
+
+Following my note about merging the TeXhax and UKTeX Digests
+(TeXhax V94 #10, UKTeX V94 #42), I received 12 responses, all
+in favour of the merger. There were two reservations expressed:
+
+- - frequency of the new TeXhax... weekly was felt by a couple of
+ people to be too often
+- - one person requested that the digest be given a new name
+
+One of the advantages of increased frequency is that questions
+can be answered and announcements made in a more timely fashion.
+This has always been one of the "advantages" of the UKTeX Digest
+which I'd like to carry over into the new, merged digest.
+However, after we've had a few issues, if lots of people feel
+strongly that a weekly digest is hitting their mailbox too often,
+please let me know and we could move to, perhaps, two-weekly issues.
+
+As for names, well, I felt it would be less confusing to keep the
+name of the "elder" publication, which is mentioned in many online
+locations and Internet list-of-lists (e.g., Meckler's "On Internet 94").
+
+If you have any views on any of this, please let me know.

+Subject: Final issue of UKTeX
+
+As previously announced, this will be the final issue of the UKTeX Digest.
+
+With the welcome emergence of the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network,
+there's no longer any need for a UK-oriented digest, originally
+created to announce developments of the UK TeX Archive which Peter
+Abbott set up at Aston University. The digest was Peter's idea,
+modelled on the TeXhax Digest, and he acted as editor/moderator for
+the first few years of its existence. Looking back, I see I took over
+the editing of the digest with the V90 #21 issue and that from the
+beginning of 1987 to date, 336 digests were produced.
+
+However, don't despair! The intention is to merge UKTeX into TeXhax,
+which will continue to act as a question, answer and announcement
+forum for the global TeX community. The electronic distribution lists
+of the two digests will be merged and, for a while at least,
+contributions addressed to UKTeX will still be accepted but will
+appear in TeXhax, starting early in 1995. Initially, it's intended to
+produce TeXhax at weekly intervals, to maintain the timeliness of
+UKTeX for announcements, but this frequency may be modified in the
+light of experience, depending on the volume of contributions.
+
+So, my sincere thanks go to all those who have encouraged and

+Could you clarify the connection between the above? You only mention

+these two now? I also don't understand the connection between
+texhax-digest and comp.text.tex, and perhaps many others are in this
+situation. Is the former meant to be the "best of" the latter?
+
+Please treat this as a note to uktex, even though sent to you
+personally. I am in favour of merging all into comp.text.tex,
+whatever that entails, but am prepared to accept that we might need a
+comp.text.latex, comp.text.tex, comp.text.metafont, ... as the volume
+on comp.text.tex is very high and it is difficult to read it all.

+
+There's little connection between TeXhax and UKTeX, other than the person
+putting together the two digests. uk.tex was created because some people
+at Cambridge wanted to read UKTeX but neither wanted to receive private
+copies via mail nor to read the copies I post to comp.text.tex. There's no
+connection between any of these and comp.text.tex
+

+
+Several people without access to news (yes, there are such people) find
+them useful. As do some people who choose not to read comp.text.tex
+
+> I also don't understand the connection between

+
+There is no connection. I post TeXhax and UKTeX to c.t.t only as
+additional distribution methods. TeXhax began years before c.t.t was
+created and has never claimed to be an abstract of the newsgroup.

+
+I agree; I find it very difficult to find time to read all of c.t.t myself
+(one good reason why TeXhax is not an abstract of the newsgroup)

+Subject: CTAN management problems (uploads)
+
+In the recent past, it has become apparent that the canonical address
+for notifying uploads (ctan-mgr@shsu.edu) is not working.
+
+For the time being, therefore, the CTAN management request that you
+notify ctan@shsu.edu of any uploads. If you have made an upload in
+the recent past and it hasn't appeared on the archives, please re-send
+notification of your upload to ctan@shsu.edu
+
+I have changed the README.uploads file on ftp.tex.ac.uk to reflect
+this change, and have agreed with Rainer Shoepf that he will do the
+same for ftp.dante.de and ftp.shsu.edu.
+
+We hope that the problem will not persist, and we will change the
+READMEs back again and will announce again in these forums when
+service is restored to its usual state.

+Subject: Winter LaTeX Release
+
+
+
+The second full release of LaTeX2e was placed on the ctan archives on
+December 17th. This release fixes problems reported since June and
+incorporates the new `inputenc' package as a standard method of
+supporting 8bit input.
+
+The document ltnews02.tex contains more details of the new features.
+See also the www page:
+
+ http://www.tex.ac.uk/CTAN/latex/
+
+LaTeX is available from ctan hosts in the directory
+
+ tex-archive/macros/latex/base
+
+A ready `unpacked' version is available in
+
+ tex-archive/macros/latex/unpacked
+
+Note that this includes all the files in `base' so you do not need
+both directories.
+
+Unfortunately a couple of small bugs are present in that release.
+These are fixed in the file
+ tex-archive/macros/latex/base/ltpatch.ltx
+that was placed on ftp.dante.de on 22nd December (and will arrive on
+other ctan hosts overnight).
+
+If you have already installed LaTeX2e <1994/12/01>, simply obtain the
+patch file and re-run initex on latex.ltx; this will update the
+format to LaTeX2e <1994/12/01> patch level 1. If you have not
+previously installed the December release, just follow the usual
+installation procedure outlined in install.txt, and the patch will be
+automatically applied.
+
+Two other files in the LaTeX distribution have been updated since
+the initial December release.
+
+tex-archive/macros/latex/packages/tools/xspace.dtx
+ (% missing from two comment lines...)

+\subsection PC and Mac disks
+
+ From January 1994 the UK TeX Users' Group is distributing an
+ emTeX kit for PCs, and an OzTeX kit for Macintosh. The cost
+ covers copying and postage costs, and the shareware fee for
+ OzTeX. Each set costs \pounds30, and is available from
+ Peter Abbott, 1 Eymore Close, Selly Oak, Birmingham B29 4LB.
+ Cheques must be payable to `UKTUG'. Please note that this
+ service **is available to UKTUG members only.**
+
+ Each set comes with an installation guide, and (at least)
+ full TeX and Metafont, a previewer, a PostScript driver, and
+ CM fonts. Two update disks a year will be sent out
+ automatically, with the current version of LaTeXe, and other
+ goodies. A subscription service will be available for
+ subsequent years. In addition, subscribers can request up to
+ 3 disks a year with any material from the CTAN archives, but
+ this will be supplied `as is', without instructions.
+
+ OzTeX and emTeX are also available on disk from TeX Users Group;
+ mail TUG for details.
