To install TeX on OpenVMS perform the following steps:
0) copy the distribution (either the ZIP archive or the save-sets)
to the root directory of the disk that shall hold TeX
1.1) if you got the CTAN archive (TEX97_CTAN.ZIP) extract the archive
with UNZIP 5.x into TEX97_CTAN.BCK and restore the save-set with
the BACKUP utility; this will create the TeX tree under
<disk>:[TEXMF...]
The ZIP archive has the OpenVMS record attributes included so one
really needs the OpenVMS version of UNZIP.
1.2) if you got the DECUS archives (TEX97_%%%.BCK) restore at least
TEX97_EXE.BCK and TEX97_FNT.BCK with the BACKUP utility; this will
create the TeX tree under <disk>:[TEXMF...]
2) delete any the directories starting with two underscores, __*.DIR .
these directories should be empty and have been used during the
development. if they contain some files, please notify us, since
you found a bug in the distribution procedure.
3) define the basic logicals by
DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC TEX_DISK <disk>
DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC/TRANSLATION=CONCEALED TEX_ROOT TEX_DISK:[TEXMF.]
DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC TEX_USAGE CLD
in your SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGICALS.COM
4) define the remaining logicals after <disk> has been mounted in
SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM or your local startup procedure by
@TEX_ROOT:[EXE.COMMON]TEX_LOGICALS.COM
5) add the following to SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN.COM or the login procedure
defined by SYS$SYLOGIN:
@TEX_EXE:TEX_COMMANDS.COM
After a reboot TeX will be available. For other installation opportunities
see TEX_ROOT:[MGR]VMS_TEX_MGR.GUIDE .
One may find some objects/images in the [SRC....] and [EXE...] tree. Those
in the [EXE..] tree have been recompiled; those in the [SRC...] tree have
been fetched from other archives. To save space, one may delete some of the.
The file LAST_MINUTE.BUGS in [TEXMF.MGR] describes some bugs found prior
to the creation of the distribution. All these bugs and oddities will
(hopefully) be fixed in the next release.
Important:
---------
Sites who fetched TeX from CTAN will have a basic TeX installation. These
sites should read the whole TEX_ROOT:[MGR]VMS_TEX_MGR.GUIDE . They will
need additonal files CTAN (for example Metafont sources). A complete
file list is given by [MGR]FILES.LIST .
Sites who got TeX from DECUS will have a complete installation if they
installed TEX97_SRC.BCK and TEX97_DOC.BCK. Even if these save-sets have
been restored, they will have a complete run-time version.
Bug reports should be send to one of the addresses below.
