More information on LaTeX may be found at -http://www.cogs.susx.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html. - -In summary, to install ALaTeX, you will: - - * Generate the ALaTeX format and standard metaclass. - - * Put the ALaTeX files where ALaTeX can read them. - - * Check the installation. - -When one of these steps depends on your TeX distribution, you may find -help on how to do it in a <system>.txt file in the LaTeX distribution. - - -GENERATING THE ALATEX FORMAT -============================ - -To create the ALaTeX format, - - * Run TeX on the file `aunpack.ins'. This will create two new files - called `alatex.ltx' and `metaclas.cfg'. - - * Invoke iniTeX with a first line of `&latex alatex.ltx'. This will - create a format file called `alatex.fmt'. Alternatively, you can - do this by typing `&latex' to iniTeX's `**' prompt, then typing - `\input alatex.ltx', and renaming the file `texput.fmt' to - `alatex.fmt'. - - * Copy or move the format file `alatex.fmt' to the TeX formats - directory, and copy or move the standard metaclass `metaclas.cfg' - into a standard TeX input path. - - * If you use the Unix web2c distribution of TeX, you may wish to - create a link from `alatex' to `virtex', and define - TEXINPUTS.alatex to have the same or similar value as - TEXINPUTS.latex2e in the file texmf.cnf. On other platforms, you - must do something else to use the ALaTeX format. - - -CHECKING THAT THE INSTALLATION WORKED -===================================== - -To make sure that the installation has worked, you may run -ALaTeX on the document `ltxcheck.tex' which came in the base directory -of your LaTeX2e distribution. - -Notice that the dialog will refer to LaTeX2e, but the banner ought to -announce that you have invoked ALaTeX. - -This will produce a number of messages, each of which should be `OK'. -If any of them are `BAD', I suggest trying seeing whether the same -error occurs when you run LaTeX on `ltxcheck.tex'. If so, see the -PROBLEMS section of the install.txt file in the LaTeX distribution. -If not, then please see the file abugs.txt in the ALaTeX distribution -and submit a bug report. - -If all the messages are `OK' then you are finished! - - -GENERATING THE DOCUMENTATION -============================ - -Process `alatex.tex' with LaTeX and (optionally) Makeindex to produce -documentation of ALaTeX and its standard metaclass. If you generate -the index, use the index style gind.ist that came in the base -directory of your LaTeX2e distribution (though it might have been -moved elsewhere during installation). - - -UNIX -==== - -On a Unix system, it will be easiest to use the Makefile I have -written. Look over the variables at the top of the Makefile and -adjust them as necessary. Invoke "make" with no arguments to see a -list of targets. |
