-WinShell Installation
-
-Following these 3 steps [plus 2 optional] will lead to a working
-LATEX environment.
-
--> LATEX package
- A LATEX package is required. There are two common ones:
- MiKTeX: http://www.miktex.org/
- TeXLive: http://www.texlive.org/
- These packages can also be found at the different TEX communities:
- ftp://ftp.dante.de/ Germany
- ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/ England
- ftp://ctan.tug.org/ USA
- The LATEX packages are located at: /pub/tex/systems/win32/
-
--> PDF viewer
- A PDF viewer has to be installed to view .pdf documents. There are
- several possibilities, e.g. with Foxit Reader, GSViewer, Adobe
- Reader or Sumatra PDF:
- Sumatra PDF: http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/
- Foxit Reader: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php
- GSView: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html
- Adobe Reader: http://www.adobe.com/
- Sumatra PDF supports SyncTeX which allows forward and inverse
- search in .pdf documents.
-
--> PostScript viewer [optional]
- A PostScript viewer is optional and not necessary if the focus is
- on creating .pdf documents.
- To view the PostScript files install PostScript and the GSviewer:

-
--> WinShell
- WinShell comes as a zip file and as a complete setup program. Only ONE
- is needed!
- Zip file: Extract the zip file to the directory of your choice and
- start WinShell.exe
- Setup program: The setup program copies all the WinShell files to a
- specific directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\WinShell.
- Registry entries are made for the .tex and the .wsp files.
-
- When WinShell starts for the first time, the following files will be
- created in a directory depending on the OS (Operating System) version
- you are running:
- WinShellMacros.bmp
- WinShellUserTools.bmp
- WinShell.ini
- WinShell.macros
- WinShellDict.txt
- WinShell.bibtex_fields
- WinShell.bibtex_types
- By default, WinShell tries to find the executable files by searching
- the registry. The LATEX binary path should be added to the environment
- variable PATH in the autoexec.bat (depending on the OS version).
- That is why WinShell should be installed in the last stage of the LATEX
- installation procedure.
-
--> SpellChecker [optional]
- For spell checking download a dictionary from
- http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries
- and copy it to the Dictionaries folder in the WinShell folder,
- e.g. C:\Program Files\WinShell\Dictionaries
-
