Subject: TeX for OpenVMS AXP?
Peter;
can you advise me about availability of the TeX software on a VMS
Alpha machine (DEC 3000 model 800) and if available, how to get a copy and
any tools/packages etc required to make it work. (The VAX/VMS version you
supplied a few years back works very well!)
Thanks,
John C. Miller, Clinical Trials Service Unit, Oxford University, UK
