+ TeX for 386/486/586 PC's with Microsoft Windows
+ ===============================================
+
+The following files are available by anonymous ftp from
+penguin.phy.bnl.gov:/pub/msdos:
+
+ * emtex.zip is a PKZIP file of emTeX, a public domain version of TeX
+ for 386 or higher PC's running DOS and Microsoft Windows. It has
+ been slightly modified for BNL:
+
+ texsis.bat has been added to run TeXsis;
+ pprint.bat has been added to print on an HP Laserjet.
+ texfonts\4allmine.fli has been added.
+
+ * notgnu.zip is a PKZIP file of notGNU Emacs, a version of Emacs for
+ Microsoft Windows.
+
+ * texsis.zip is a PKZIP file of TeXsis 2.16 with the BNL site file and
+ a .fmt file for emTeX.
+
+All of these files can be freely distributed.
+
+
+Installation instructions:
+==========================
+
+ (1) Create a directory C:\emtex and place emtex.zip in it. Unpack
+ it with the command
+
+ pkunzip -d emtex.zip
+
+ If you change this or other directory names, you will have to
+ modify several .bat files.
+
+ (2) Create a directory c:\notgnu and place notgnu.zip in it. Unpack
+ it with the command
+
+ pkunzip -d notgnu.zip
+
+ (3) Create a directory c:\texsis and place texsis.zip in it. Unpack
+ it with the command
+
+ pkunzip -d texsis.zip
+
+ (4) Edit your config.sys file and add or modify the shell command to
+ allocate at least 2048 bytes of environment space:
+
+ shell=c:\dos\command.com c:\dos /p /e:2048
+
+ (5) Edit your autoexec.bat file and add the following lines to
+ initialize TeX:
+
+ call c:\emtex\set_tex
+ set texinput=c:\texsis;%texinput%
+
+ These commands must be executed before Windows is started.
+ set_tex adds c:\emtex to your path.
+
+ (6) Using the Windows Program Manager, add C:\emtex\dviwin and
+ C:\notgnu\wnot to an existing or new program group.
+
+ (7) Reboot and restart Windows.
+
+ (8) Optionally, run TeXsis on the manual to see that everything is
+ working:
+
+ cd \texsis
+ texsis manual
+
+ (9) Start dviwin by clicking on its icon. In C:\texsis, try to open
+ manual.dvi. No fonts will be visible. Under the Options menu,
+ set the font directory to be C:\emtex\texfonts, and under the
+ Resolution menu, set the resolution to be 300dpi. The manual
+ should then be readable. Under the File menu, exit to save these
+ changes.
