On plain MS-DOS they need a DPMI server (a free -server is available as v2misc/csdpmiNb.zip that can be downloaded from -DJGPP archives on SimTel.NET mirrors). MS-Windows have DPMI services -built into them. When run on Windows 9X, the DJGPP-compiled programs -support long file names. - - - Building the package from sources - --------------------------------- - - - The following tools are REQUIRED to build and install Web2c - programs (the parentheses list filenames of binary distributions - you can download from DJGPP archives if you don't have a - particular package): - - Bash (bsh1147b.zip) - Fileutils (fil316b.zip) - Textutils (txt122b.zip) - Grep (grep22b.zip) - Patch (pat25b.zip) - Sh-utils (shl112b.zip) - Sed (sed302b.zip) - Diffutils (dif2721b.zip) - Findutils (find41b.zip) - Ed (ed-02b.zip) - Gawk (gwk303b.zip) - Bison (bsn125b.zip) - Flex (flx254b.zip) - - All of these are available from the v2gnu directory on the usual - DJGPP sites, e.g. ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/. - - The above tools are IN ADDITION to the basic DJGPP development - environment that is required to compile and link C programs. - Consult the file v2/readme.1st and the DJGPP FAQ list in - v2/faqNNNb.zip, for details about the basic package. - - - Unzip the downloaded Web2c and Texmflib distributions from the - root of your DJGPP installation tree. If you are doing this on - Windows 9x, use an unzip program that supports long filenames. - - This will create the top directory and unpack the sources - into the relevant subdirectories. It will also create the - `share/texmf' directory and unpack the contents of Texmflib - library there. - - - At this point, I suggest you to read the file - `kpathsea/INSTALL.txt'. It includes a detailed yet very - readable description of the various options available to you at - build and installation time. - - - Make sure your TMPDIR environment variable points to a drive - with enough free space. Many DJGPP installations set this - variable to a RAM disk for performance reasons. Since RAM disks - tend to be small (a few Megabytes), a complex shell script may - fill it with temporary files, typically from pipes and `command` - expansions, after which point programs run by that shell will - start to fail. The TeX build process runs some very long and - complicated shell scripts which require around 4MB of free space - on TMPDIR filesystem (it failed for me when I had only 2.5MB). - If you cannot enlarge your RAM disk, point TMPDIR to a real disk - (the effect on the overall build time is insignificant, since - GCC will have hard time compiling some of the larger programs - with -O2 switch). TMPDIR is usually set on the DJGPP.ENV file, - but you can override it by setting TMPDIR from the DOS prompt. - - - The default 256KB stack size limit of DJGPP programs is too - small for compiling some of the TeX programs. Make sure your - cc1.exe program has at least 768KB of stack. Here's how: - - stubedit cc1.exe minstack=768k - - (`stubedit' is part of the basic DJGPP development - environment). - - - To configure the package for DJGPP, run the `config.bat' batch - file in the djgpp subdirectory. This sets some environment - variables and then invokes Bash to run the configuration script - with necessary arguments. (You can edit the batch file if you - want to run the script with different arguments.) The command - is this: - - djgpp\config - - - It is possible to configure and build Web2c from a directory - other than where the sources reside (useful when you cannot - write to that directory, like if it's on a CD-ROM). In that - case, you need to invoke `config.bat' with a single argument - which is the full pathname of the source directory. For - example: - - f:\gnu\web2c-7.2\djgpp\config f:/gnu/web2c-7.2 - - Note that you MUST use Unix-style forward slashes in the - argument you pass to `config.bat', or else it will fail. - - - The configure script will run for a while and recursively - configure the programs in subdirectories. - - - After running `config', just say "make". - - Building the full Web2c package takes a while (about 2 hours - on a 486/DX2-66, 35 minutes on a Pentium-166), so you might go - for a cup of coffee while it compiles. - - - To build the emulation programs in the `contrib' directory, - chdir into that directory and say "make". Compiling `regex.c' - triggers several warning messages about variables that ``might - be used uninitialized''; you can safely disregard these - warnings. - - - If you are building Texk more than 18 months since it was - released, you might see a warning message while LaTeX is built - which complains about old sources. In general, you can press - [Enter] in response to that message and let the build continue, - since the message is just a precaution. However, if you do care - to have the latest stuff, you will need to download the - latex/base directory from one of the CTAN mirrors and replace - with it the files in latex/base which come with tmflib74.zip. - - - If you have changed some of the programs in the package, it is a - good idea to run tests on them. The Makefile in the web2c - directory has a large number of xxx-check targets, where xxx is - the name of a program; you can run these one by one by going - into web2c and saying like so: - - make gftopk-check - - You can also run all of them together by saying "make check" in - the top-level directory. - - Some of the tests appear to fail (`diff' prints some actual - differences between the test results and the reference files - that come with the package. In most cases, this is normal - behavior (the programs were changed since the canonical results - were computed); the file `web2c/tests/check.log' includes the - output you should see for each test. If your results coincide - with `check.log' (except for the version of the package that the - programs print), you are doing fine. - - - Before installing, if you already have a previous version of - Texk installed, review your `texmf.cnf' configuration file (in - %TEXMF%/web2c directory). If you have changed it from the - original, you might want the installation process to leave it - alone and not overwrite it with the fresh copy from the - distribution. In that case, edit `texmf.cnf' and remove the - word "original" from its first line. This tells the - installation process to refrain from replacing that file. - - - To install the programs, say "make install" in the top - directory. This will create missing directories and copy the - programs and auxiliary files to their places. The programs - inside `contrib' need to be installed manually (typically, into - the same directory where the executable programs go). - - - Troubleshooting - --------------- - - I do NOT intend here to replace the various chapters in the docs - which explain how to solve problems and report bugs. Please read - the docs whenever you see any seemingly abnormal behavior. What's - below is intended to mention a few DOS- and DJGPP-specific - problems that you might see, and how to get around them. - - First, a word of warning. Web2c is a tremendously large and - complex package, with dozens of different programs, some of them - with many different options. While porting it, I've made a good- - faith effort to test everything I could, including using it to - generate printed versions of various TeX and Texinfo documents. - However, some bugs might still be there. Please treat this port - accordingly and report possible bugs to the DJGPP news group - (comp.os.msdos.djgpp) first. - - One possible problem you could see is due to insufficient number - of available file handles. `Dvilj' is particularly prone to this - problem. If you ever see an error message to the effect that a - program has no more handles, edit your CONFIG.SYS and enlarge the - FILES= setting there. (Don't forget to reboot so the new setting - is in effect.) - - Another related problem manifests itself by an error message like - so: - - c:\djgpp\bin/mf.exe: cannot open - - This usually happens when a DVI driver finds a missing font and - invokes the MetaFont program to generate them on the fly. Due to - peculiarities of file handles inheritance from parent to child - processes, the child process can sometimes fail to start because - the stub cannot open the .exe file. I think I've fixed these - problems, so you shouldn't see such messages, but if you do, - please report the details. - - If the font-creation fails, a file named `missfont.log' is created - in the current directory, with the commands you should issue to - make these fonts. Many times, invoking that file as a batch file - will create the missing fonts, so you could then invoke the DVI - driver again and it will work. - - - Happy TeXing! - - Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> |
