-1. Contents of the package
---------------------------
+Installation
+------------
- plipsum.nw
- plipsum.tex
- pliptest.tex
- plipsumdoc.pdf
- compile.sh
- README (this file)
+- Run `plipsum.nw` through noweb. You van find it on the Norman Ramsey
+ web page (<http://www.cs.tufts.edu/~nr/noweb/>) or on CTAN
+ (<http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/web/noweb>).
+
+ A suitable command can be:
+ $ notangle -Rplipsum.tex plipsum.nw | ./stripc > plipsum.tex
+ `stripc` is a python filter that strips away comments and blank spaces
+ from the final file.
-2. Installation
---------------------------
+- Move the resulting `.tex` file to a place where TeX finds it.
+ On a TDS compliant system this should be (substitute `$TEXMF`
+ with your local or home texmf directory):
- - Run plipsum.nw through noweb <http://www.cs.tufts.edu/~nr/noweb/>.
- The commands are listed in compile.sh
+ $TEXMF/tex/plain/plipsum/
- - Move the resulting .tex file to a place where TeX finds it.
- On a TDS compliant system this should be (substitute $TEXMF
- with your local or home texmf directory):
-
- $TEXMF/tex/plain/plipsum/
+- If you like to, move the source file (`.nw`) in a
+ source directory of your system.
- - If you like to, move the source file (.nw) in a
- source directory of your system.
-
- - Update your filename database. How to achieve this depends
- on your system. For TeXlive `texhash' will work.
-
- - If you are using a non TDS compliant system you are on your own; take a look
- in the documentation how to install new packages.
+- Update your filename database. How to achieve this depends
+ on your system. For TeXlive one of these commands should work:
- - If you are using windows (TM) you are on your own even more.
+ $ texhash ~/texmf
+ $ sudo mktexlsr ~/texmf
+
+ More info on this is available with:
+
+ $ texhash --help
+ $ sudo mktexlsr --help
+
+- If you are using a non TDS compliant system you are on your own; take a
+ look in the documentation how to install new packages.
+- If you are using windows (TM) you are on your own even more.
