These are the instructions to install SemiTeX Hebrew support on your machine.

1. Verify that you have received all the files listed in the file
   IVRITEX.FILELIST. This last file can then be immediately discarded.

2. Run Metafont for your printer as follows:
   * &plain
   * input your_local_file_with _the_printer_settings (if you have one)
   * mag=magstep n;   (where n is 0 the default, or any other magstep you want)
   * mode=your_printer;
   * input redis10       (for font redis10, of course)

3. The resulting TFM file, and the raster file (GF) eventually reformatted,
should then be moved to the directories holding all your fonts (under VMS
and under VM, they can be in parallel structures, with proper symbol adjustment
under VMS. This may be true with other systems as well, I am NOT an expert).

4. Compile and link PRETEX.C, move the module to where TeX programs reside.

5. Copy IVRITEX.TEX  to where all distributed TeX inputs are stored. You
should have a /tex/inputs directory somewhere ( a minidisk under VM).

6. If you want to keep the demo file IVRTEST.TEX which is NOT used by this
TeX extension for any other purpose than demonstrating how to use it, move it
to /tex/inputs as well.

7. Unless you are a VM site (or a happy PC-DOS, MS-DOS user who knows that
Personal REXX exists and has already purchased it [ I get no bonus on sales]),
use SEMITEX.EXEC as a pattern to create a command file that will make the
user's life easy since this extension does NOT process the file edited by
the user, but rather processes an intermediate file created by PRETEX.

8. Although I am not an expert dedicated to TeX support in any way, and
although I am sure that this is not going to be an easily met commitment,
I will try to stand behind the stuff sent out.
