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:
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html
-> 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
