+ <para>This <olink targetptr="book" type="arch"/> is distributed as
+ a <filename>.tds.zip</filename> file (TDS is the &TeX; Directory
+ Structure, the standard layout for a modern &TeX; installation).
+ Install it on any personal <acronym>TDS</acronym>-compliant
+ &TeX; system by unzipping it into your personal &TeX; directory
+ (folder). This will put all the files into the right places, so
+ you can start using them immediately.</para>
+ <para>If you haven't yet created a personal &TeX; directory, see
+ below for details of what one is, and how to create it.</para>
+ <para>On a shared (multiuser) system like a server, unzip it into
+ the <varname>$TEXMFLOCAL</varname> directory instead (see
+ below), and run your &TeX; directory-indexing program (eg
+ <productname>texhash</productname>,
+ <productname>mktexlsr</productname>,
+ <productname>Update&nbsp;FNDB</productname>, etc) so that
+ everyone can use it.</para>
+ <para>If you are using an old non-<acronym>TDS</acronym>-compliant
+ system, see below under Manual Installation.</para>
+ <sect2>
+ <title>Your personal &TeX; directory</title>
+ <para>This is a directory (folder) on single-user systems like
+ desktops and laptops where you put all your local manual
+ modifications, updates, and additions such as classes,
+ packages, and fonts. The name and location are fixed:</para>

+ <para>Unix (Mac and GNU/Linux) users do not need to (indeed,

+ <para>This will give you the location of the shared

+ <para>Do not forget to run the
+ <productname>texhash</productname> or
+ <productname>mktexlsr</productname> (filename indexer) program
+ after installation, otherwise the files will not be found by

+ <sect1>
+ <title>Manual installation (non-TDS systems)</title>
+ <para>To install this software manually, unzip the zip file into a
+ temporary directory and move the <filename><olink
+ targetptr="book" type="xml:id"/>.<olink targetptr="book"
+ type="userlevel"/></filename> file from the
+ <filename>tex/latex/<olink targetptr="book"
+ type="xml:base"/></filename> directory to a location
+ (directory/folder) where &LaTeX; will find it on your system.
+ This referred to in some documentation as <phrase>the
+ <varname>TEXINPUTS</varname> directory</phrase>, although it
+ may be called something else on your system.</para>
+ <para><emphasis>It is your responsibility to know where this
+ location is.</emphasis> See the question in the &TeX;
+ <acronym>FAQ</acronym> at
+ <uri>http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=inst-wlcf</uri>
+ for more information. If you do not know, or cannot find it, or
+ do not have access to it, your &TeX; system may be out of date
+ need replacing.</para>
+ <sect2>
+ <title>Last resort</title>
+ <para>In an emergency, and as a last resort on unmanageable
+ systems, it is possible simply to put the <filename><olink
+ targetptr="book" type="xml:id"/>.<olink targetptr="book"
+ type="userlevel"/></filename> file in your current working
+ directory (the same folder as your <filename>.tex</filename>
+ file[s]).</para>
+ <para>While this may work, it is not supported, and may lead to
+ other resources (packages, fonts, etc) not being found.</para>
+ </sect2>
+ </sect1>
+ <sect1>
+ <title>Usage</title>
+ <para>Make this the first line of your &LaTeX; document:</para>

+ targetptr="book" type="xml:id"/>}</programlisting>
+ <programlisting condition="package">\usepackage[options]{<olink
+ targetptr="book" type="xml:id"/>}</programlisting>
+ <para>Read the documentation for the options available. The
+ documentation is distributed as a <acronym>PDF</acronym>
+ document in the zip file. You can also regenerate it by
+ typesetting the <filename><olink targetptr="book"
+ type="xml:id"/>.dtx</filename> file with &LaTeX; (and
+ &BiBTeX; and <productname>makeindex</productname>) in the normal
+ way.</para>
