\title{Tips for installing \LaTeXe\ for Oz\TeX}

\author{Peter Abbott}

\begin{Article}
\noindent Having collected the files from the |macros/latex2e/base|
directory in the CTAN archives I decided to install it on a Mac IIfx.
This is what occured and may assist others in preventing wasted time.
I used OzTeX version 1.6 for this exercise.

\begin{enumerate}

\item Edit the default config to include a \LaTeXe\ directory in the
|TeX-inputs| path and put all the \LaTeXe\ files in there. 
I created a folder |LaTeX2e| and added it to |TeX-inputs|.
\item Edit |hash-size| from 2500 to 4000 and change |hash_prime| accordingly.
\item Change the two circle tfm files to |lcircle tfm| (Andrew will correct
   this one in version 1.7)

\item Add |LaTeX-docs| to |TeX-inputs|.

\item Run initex on |unpack2e.ins| and then on |latex2e.ltx|

\item Go and read a book or do something useful. The elapsed time on my
   IIfx was 11871.7secs, yes over 3 hours!

\end{enumerate}
