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.
