(Warning: it is not +especially useful for older Mac or \acro{MS-DOS} systems.) + +\TL{} includes executables for \TeX{}, \LaTeXe{}, \ConTeXt, \MF, \MP, +\BibTeX{} and many other programs; an extensive collection of macros, +fonts and documentation; and support for typesetting in many different +scripts from around the world. It is part of the even larger \TK{} +(briefly described below in section~\ref{sec:struct-tl}, +\p.\pageref{sec:struct-tl}). Both are cooperative efforts by the \TeX\ +user groups. + +For newer versions of the packages included here, please check +\acro{CTAN}: \url{http://www.ctan.org}. + +For a brief summary of the major changes in this edition of \TL{}, +see the end of the document, section~\ref{sec:history} +(\p.\pageref{sec:history}). + + +\subsection{Basic usage of \protect\TL{}} +\label{sec:basic} + +You can use \TL{} in three principal ways: + +\begin{enumerate} + +\item You can run \TL{} directly from the \pkgname{live} \DVD +(see section~\ref{sec:multiple-dist}, \p.\pageref{sec:multiple-dist}). +This takes almost no disk space, and gives you immediate access to +everything in \TL{}. Of course performance will be worse than running +on local disk, but you may well find it useful. + +\item You can install all or part of \TL{} to a local disk, from either +the \DVD\ or the \pkgname{inst} \acro{CD}. This is the most common use +of \TL. You will need (approximately) 100 megabytes for the most +minimal system, and upwards of 1.3 gigabytes for a full system. + +\item You can integrate a particular package or collection into your +existing \TeX{} system, either a \TL{} system you installed +earlier, or a different system. + +\end{enumerate} + +\noindent All of these are described in detail in the \acro{OS}-specific +installation sections following, but here is a quick start: + +\begin{itemize*} + +\item The main installation script for Unix and \MacOSX{} is +\texttt{install-tl.sh}. +GNU/Linux users can also try a new GUI installation program: +run \texttt{setuptl/tlpmgui}. More information +can be found in section \ref{sec:win-install} on +p.~\pageref{sec:win-install}. + +\item The single package installation script is \texttt{install-pkg.sh}. +(After installation on Linux with \texttt{tlpmgui}, you can also try +running \texttt{tlpmgui} again to add or remove individual packages or +collections.) + +\item The installation program for Windows is \texttt{tlpmgui.exe}. +It can be used also for adding or removing the packages. +See section~\ref{sec:win-install} below for more information. + +\end{itemize*} + + +\subsection{Getting help} +\label{sec:help} + +The \TeX{} community is both active and friendly, and virtually all +serious questions end up getting answered. However, the support is +informal, done by volunteers and casual readers, so it's especially +important that you do your homework before asking. (If you prefer +guaranteed commercial support, you can forego \TL{} completely and +purchase a vendor's system; \url{http://tug.org/interest.html#vendors} +has a list.) + +Here is a list of resources, approximately in the order we recommend +using them: + +\begin{description} +\item [Getting Started] If you are new to \TeX, the web page +\url{http://tug.org/begin.html} gives a brief introduction to the system. + +\item [\TeX{} \acro{FAQ}] The \TeX{} \acro{FAQ} is a huge compendium of +answers to all sorts of questions, from the most basic to the most +arcane. It is included on \TL{} in \OnCD{texmf-doc/doc/english/FAQ-en}, and is +available on the Internet through \url{http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq}. +Please check here first. + +\item [\TeX{} Catalogue] If you are looking for a specific package, +font, program, etc., the \TeX{} Catalogue is the place to look. It is a +huge collection of all \TeX{}-related items. See +\OnCD{texmf-doc/doc/english/catalogue}, or +\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue}. + +\item [\TeX{} Web Resources] The web page +\url{http://tug.org/interest.html} has many \TeX{}-related links, in +particular for numerous books, manuals, and articles on all aspects of +the system. + +\item [support archives] The two principal support forums are the +Usenet newsgroup \url{news:comp.text.tex} and the mailing list +\email{texhax@tug.org}. Their archives have years of past +questions and answers for your searching pleasure, via +\url{http://groups.google.com/groups?group=comp.text.tex} and +\url{http://tug.org/mail-archives/texhax}, respectively. And a general web +search, for example on \url{http://google.com}, never hurts. + +\item [asking questions] If you cannot find an answer, you can post to +\dirname{comp.text.tex} through Google or your newsreader, or to +\email{texhax@tug.org} through email. But before you post, +\emph{please} read this \acro{FAQ} entry on asking questions in such a +way that you're most likely to get an answer: +\url{http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=askquestion}. + +\item [\TL{} support] If you want to report a bug or have +suggestions or comments on the \TL{} distribution, installation, or +documentation, the mailing list is \email{tex-live@tug.org}. However, +if your question is about how to use a particular program included in +\TL{}, you are better off writing to that program's maintainer or +mailing list. + +\end{description} + +The other side of the coin is helping others who have questions. Both +\dirname{comp.text.tex} and \code{texhax} are open to anyone, so feel +free to join, start reading, and help out where you can. Welcome to +\TeX{}! + + +% don't use \TL so the \uppercase in the headline works. Also so +% tex4ht ends up with the right TeX. Likewise the \protect's. +\section{Structure of \protect\TeX\protect\ Live} +\label{sec:struct-tl} + +This section describes the structure and contents of \TL{} and the +\TK{} of which it is a part. + +\subsection{Multiple distributions: \protect\pkgname{live}, + \protect\pkgname{inst}, + \protect\pkgname{protext}} +\label{sec:multiple-dist} + +Space limitations of \acro{CD-ROM} format have forced us to divide +\TK{} into several distributions, as follows. + +\begin{description} + +\item [live] A complete system on \acro{DVD}; it is too large +for \acro{CD}. It can be run live or installed to disk. It also +includes a snapshot of the \CTAN{} repository, the \pkgname{protext} +distribution for Windows and the Mac\TeX\ distribution for \MacOSX, entirely +independent of \TL{}, as well as assorted other packages in a +\texttt{texmf-extra} directory. + +\CTAN{}, \pkgname{protext}, Mac\TeX, and \texttt{texmf-extra} do not follow +the same copying conditions as \TL{}, so be careful when redistributing or +modifying. + +\item [inst(allable)] A complete system on \CD; in order to make this fit, +the packages and programs are compressed. Therefore, it is not possible +to run \TeX\ directly from the installable \CD, you have to install it +to disk (hence its name). Installation is described in subsequent sections. + +\item [protext] An enhancement of the \MIKTEX\ distribution for Windows, +\ProTeXt\ adds a few extra tools to \MIKTEX, and simplifies +installation. It is entirely independent of \TL{}, and has its own +installation instructions. It can be run live, or installed to disk. +The \ProTeXt\ home page is \url{http://tug.org/protext}. + +\ProTeXt\ is provided as both the top level of the \pkgname{live} \DVD\ +and on its own \CD\ (for those who cannot use the \DVD). + +\end{description} + +\noindent You can tell which type of distribution you're in by looking +for a \texttt{00\var{type}.TL} file at the top of the \TL{} directory. +This file also contains the \TL{} release date. + +Naturally, each user group chooses what to distribute to its own members. + + +\subsection{Top level directories} +\label{sec:tld} + +Here is a brief listing and description of the top level directories in +the \TL{} distribution. On the \pkgname{live} \DVD, the entire \TL{} +hierarchy is in a subdirectory \dirname{texliveYYYY}, not at the top +level of the disc. + +\smallskip +\begingroup + \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.3} % open up interrow spacing +\begin{tabular}{>{\ttfamily}lp{.78\hsize}} +bin & The \TeX{} system programs, arranged by platform. \\ +source & The source of all programs, including the main \Webc{} + \TeX{} and \MF{} distributions. These are stored in a + \cmdname{bzip2}-compressed tar archive. \\ +setuptl & Installation programs for Linux and Windows. \\ +support & Assorted auxiliary packages and programs. These are + \emph{not} installed automatically. This includes + assorted editors and \TeX\ shells. \\ +texmf & Tree for the programs, along with their support files and + documentation.

The documentation for the +programs (manuals, man pages, Info files) is in \dirname{texmf/doc}, +since the programs are in \dirname{texmf}. Similarly, the documentation +for \TeX\ packages and formats is in \dirname{texmf-dist/doc}. You can +use the \cmdname{texdoc} or \cmdname{texdoctk} programs to find any +documentation wherever it's located. The comprehensive links in the +top-level file \OnCD{doc.html} may also be helpful. + + +\subsection{Overview of the predefined texmf trees} +\label{sec:texmftrees} + +This section lists all predefined variables specifying texmf trees used +by the system, and their intended purpose. The command \texttt{texconfig +conf} shows you the values of these variables, so that you can easily +find out how they map to directory names in your installation. + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [TEXMFMAIN] The tree which holds vital parts of the system + such as helper scripts (e.g., \verb+web2c/mktexdir+), pool files and + other support files. +\item [TEXMFDIST] The tree which holds the main set of macro packages, + fonts, etc., as originally distributed. +\item [TEXMFLOCAL] The tree which administrators can use for system-wide + installation of additional or updated macros, fonts, etc. +\item [TEXMFHOME] The tree which users can use for their own individual + installations of additional or updated macros, fonts, etc. + The expansion of this variable depends on \verb+$HOME+ by default, % $ + which dynamically adjusts for each user to an individual + directory. +\item [TEXMFCONFIG] The tree used by te\TeX's utilities + \verb+texconfig+, \verb+updmap+, and \verb+fmtutil+ to store modified + configuration data. Under \verb+$HOME+ by default. %$ +\item [TEXMFSYSCONFIG] The tree used by te\TeX's utilities + \verb+texconfig-sys+, \verb+updmap-sys+, and \verb+fmtutil-sys+ to + store modified configuration data. +\item [TEXMFVAR] The tree used by \verb+texconfig+, \verb+updmap+ and + \verb+fmtutil+ to store (cached) runtime data such as format files and + generated map files. Under \verb+$HOME+ by default. %$ +\item [TEXMFSYSVAR] The tree used by \verb+texconfig-sys+, + \verb+updmap-sys+ and \verb+fmtutil-sys+ to store (cached) runtime + data such as format files and generated map files. +\end{ttdescription} + +For more discussion of \texttt{texconfig} and related utilities, please +see section~\ref{sec:texconfig}, \p.\pageref{sec:texconfig}. + + +\subsection{Extensions to \protect\TeX} +\label{sec:tex-extensions} + +\TL{} contains several extended versions of \TeX: + +\begin{description} + +\item [\eTeX] adds a small but powerful set of new primitives +\label{text:etex} (related to macro expansion, character scanning, +classes of marks, additional debugging features, and more) and the +\TeXXeT{} extensions for bidirectional typesetting. In default mode, +\eTeX{} is 100\% compatible with ordinary \TeX. See +\OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/etex/base/etex_man.pdf}. + +\item [pdf\TeX] builds on the \eTeX\ extensions, adding support for +writing \acro{PDF} output as well as \dvi{}. See +\OnCD{texmf/doc/pdftex/manual/} for the manual, and +\OnCD{texmf/doc/pdftex/manual/samplepdf/samplepdf.tex}. This is the +default program for all formats except plain \TeX. + +\item [Xe\TeX] adds support for Unicode input and OpenType fonts, using +third-party libraries. See \url{http://scripts.sil.org/xetex}. + +\item [\OMEGA\ (Omega)] is based on Unicode (16-bit characters), thus +supports working with almost all the world's scripts simultaneously. It +also supports so-called `\OMEGA{} Translation Processes' (\acro{OTP}s), +for performing complex transformations on arbitrary input. See +\OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/omega/base/doc-1.8.tex} (not completely up-to-date). + +\item [Aleph] combines the \OMEGA\ and \eTeX\ extensions. +See \OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/aleph/base} for some minimal documentation. + +\end{description} + + +\subsection{Other notable programs in \protect\TL} + +Here are a few other commonly-used programs included in \TL{}: + +\begin{cmddescription} + +\item [bibtex] bibliography support. + +\item [makeindex] index support. + +\item [dvips] convert \dvi{} to \PS{}. + +\item [xdvi] \dvi{} previewer for the X Window System. + +\item [dvilj] \dvi{} drive for the HP LaserJet family. + +\item [dv2dt, dt2dv] convert \dvi{} to/from plain text. + +\item [dviconcat, dviselect] cut and paste pages +from \dvi{} files. + +\item [dvipdfmx] convert \dvi{} to \acro{PDF}, an alternative approach +to pdf\TeX\ (mentioned above). See the \pkgname{ps4pdf} and +\pkgname{pdftricks} packages for still more alternatives. + +\item [psselect, psnup, \ldots] \PS{} +utilities. + +\item [lacheck] \LaTeX{} syntax checker. + +\item [texexec] Con\TeX{}t and \acro{PDF} processor. + +\item [tex4ht] \TeX{} to \acro{HTML} converter. + +\end{cmddescription} + + +\section{Unix installation} +\label{sec:unix-install} + +As introduced in section~\ref{sec:basic} (\p.\pageref{sec:basic}), +\TL{} has three principal uses: + +\begin{enumerate} +\item Run directly from media. +\item Install to disk. +\item Integrate a particular package or collection into your existing +\TeX{} installation. +\end{enumerate} + +\noindent The following sections describes the Unix-specific procedures +for each of these. + +\ifSingleColumn \begin{figure}[ht]\noindent \fi +\begin{warningbox} +\textbf{Warning: } The \TK{} \CD{}s and \DVD{} are in ISO 9660 (High Sierra) +format, \emph{with} Rock Ridge (and Joliet, for Windows) +extensions. Therefore, in order to take full advantage of the \TK{} +under Unix, your system needs to be able to use the Rock Ridge +extensions. Please consult the documentation for your \cmdname{mount} +command to see how to do this. If you have several different machines +on a local network, you may be able to mount the discs on one which +does support Rock Ridge, and use this with the others. + +\leavevmode\quad Modern systems should be able to use the discs without +problems. If troubles, let us know.

It's there in case you need to override +the automatic detection. + +\textbf{\optname{b} -- Binary architectures.} By default, only the +binaries for your current platform will be installed. From this menu, +you can select installation of binaries for other architectures as well +(or omit installing the current platform). This can be useful if you are +sharing a \TeX\ tree across a network of heterogenous machines. For a +list of the supported architectures, see table~\ref{tab:archlist}, +\p.\pageref{tab:archlist}. + +\textbf{\optname{s} -- Base installation scheme.} From this menu, you +can choose an overall set of package collections, called a ``scheme''. +The default \optname{full} scheme installs everything available, but you +can also choose the \optname{basic} scheme for a minimal system, or +\optname{medium} to get something in between. There are also specific +sets for Omega and \acro{XML}. + +\textbf{\optname{c} -- Individual collections.} From this menu, you can +override the scheme's set of collections to install. Collections are +one level more detailed than schemes\Dash collections consist of one or +more packages, where packages (the lowest level grouping in \TL) contain +the actual \TeX\ macro files, font families, and so on. In this menu, +selection letters are case-sensitive. + +\textbf{\optname{l} -- Language collections}. This menu has the same +basic purpose as \Ucom{c}, to override the collection set in the chosen +scheme. In this case, the collections are specifically for different +languages. Selection letters are case-sensitive here too.

(For instance, +\pkgname{frenchle.sty} is installed if you select the \optname{French} +collection.) In addition, installing a language collection will alter +the \filename{language.dat} configuration file controlling which +hyphenation patterns are loaded. + +\textbf{\optname{d} -- Installation directories}. Three directories can +be changed here: +\label{text:instdir} + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [TEXDIR] The top-level directory under which +everything else will be installed. The default value is +\dirname{/usr/local/texlive/2007}, and is often changed. We recommend +including the year in the name, to keep different releases of \TL{} +separate. (You may wish to make a version-independent name such +\dirname{/usr/local/texlive} via a symbolic link, which you can then +update after testing the new release.) + +Under \MacOSX, the usual frontends look for \TeX{} in +\dirname{/usr/local/teTeX}, so you may wish to install \TL{} there. + +\item [TEXMFLOCAL] This tree is where the \TeX{} system (not as part of +the initial installation, but rather as time goes by) puts +non-version-specific files, primarily fonts. The default value is +\dirname{/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local}, independent of the current +\TL{} release, because it's also the recommended location to put any +local packages or configuration settings. + +\item [TEXMFSYSVAR] This tree is where \cmdname{texconfig-sys} puts +files that \emph{are} version-specific. The default value is +\dirname{TEXDIR/texmf-var}, and there's generally no reason to change +it. There is also \envname{TEXMFSYSCONFIG}, which is where +\cmdname{texconfig} looks for modified configuration data. See +section~\ref{sec:texconfig}, \p.\pageref{sec:texconfig} for more +information. + +\end{ttdescription} + +\textbf{\optname{o} -- Other options.} From this menu, you can select +the following general options: + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [a] Specify an alternate directory for generated fonts. +The default is to use the \envname{TEXMFVAR} tree, as explained above. +Setting this is useful if you plan to mount the main tree read-only, and +therefore you need another location (perhaps host-specific) for +dynamically created fonts. + +\item [l] Create symbolic links for the binaries, man pages, +and\slash or \acro{GNU} Info files in other locations. For example, you may +wish to make the man pages available under \dirname{/usr/local/man} and +the Info files available under \dirname{/usr/local/info}. (Of course +you need appropriate privileges to write in the specified directories.) + +It is not advisable to overwrite a \TeX\ system that came with your +system with this option. It's intended primarily for creating the links +in standard directories that are known to users, such as +\dirname{/usr/local/bin}, which don't already contain any \TeX\ files. + +\item [d] Skip installation of the font/macro documentation tree. +This is useful if you need to save space, or if you've previously +installed the documentation elsewhere. + +\item [s] Skip installation of the main font/macro source +tree. This is useful if you are arranging to share that tree between +machines and\slash or architectures in some other way, such as \acro{NFS}. + +\end{ttdescription} + +\textbf{i -- Perform installation.} When you're satisfied with your +configuration options, enter \Ucom{i} to actually do the installation +from the media to your chosen locations. + +% text is similar to above, but no TEXMFSYSVAR, so we have to write out. +After the installation completes, your next step is to include the +architecture-specific subdirectory of \dirname{TEXDIR/bin} in your +\envname{PATH}, so the newly-installed programs can be found. The +architecture names are listed in table~\ref{tab:archlist}, +\p.\pageref{tab:archlist}, or you can simply list the directory +\dirname{TEXDIR/bin}. + +The syntax for doing this, and the initialization file to use, depends +on your shell. If you use a Bourne-compatible shell (\cmdname{sh}, +\cmdname{bash}, \cmdname{ksh}, et al.), put the following into your +\filename{$HOME/.profile} file: + +\begin{alltt} +PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/\var{archname}:$PATH; export PATH +\end{alltt} + +\noindent For C shell-compatible shells (\cmdname{csh}, \cmdname{tcsh}), +put the following into your \filename{$HOME/.cshrc} file: +\begin{alltt} +setenv PATH /usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/\var{archname}:$PATH +\end{alltt} + +\textruntexconfig + +Here is a minimal annotated example which accepts the default +directories and installs binaries for the current system only. Thus, +only one command is needed, \Ucom{i} for install. The \texttt{>} is the +shell prompt as usual. + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{sh install-tl.sh} +\Ucom{i} # perform installation +> \Ucom{texconfig} ... # see section \ref{sec:texconfig} +# New PATH element, with Linux as the example: +> \Ucom{PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/i386-linux:$PATH; export PATH} +\end{alltt} + +If your Unix system supports the \cmdname{manpath} command (type \code{man +manpath} to learn more), you can make the \TL\ manual pages available +system-wide via the normal \cmdname{man} command by editing the file +\filename{/etc/manpath.config}; you might need root permissions for this. +With the following entry in \filename{/etc/manpath.config} the \TL\ +manual pages will be found at their original places within the \TL\ tree +(adapt the binary path for your system architecture): + +\begin{verbatim} +MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/i386-linux \ + /usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf/doc/man +\end{verbatim} + +\textifindoubt + + +\subsubsection{Non-interactive installation} +\label{sec:noninteractive-install} + +It is possible to override the default directories with environment +variables, and then install non-interactively. Example: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{TEXLIVE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/texlive} +> \Ucom{export TEXLIVE_INSTALL_PREFIX} +> \Ucom{echo i | sh install-tl.sh} +\end{alltt} + +The \envname{TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX} variable overrides the default +location of \dirname{/usr/local/texlive}, leaving all else +unchanged---so with the above invocation, the main installation will go +to \dirname{/opt/texlive/2007}. + +In the usual Unix way, the final \Ucom{echo i} can be replaced by any +sequence of input commands via a here document, so any sequence of +commands can be scripted. + +Here are all the possible overrides: + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX] + Override \dirname{/usr/local/texlive}. +\item [TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_TEXDIR] + Override \dirname{\$TEXLIVE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/2007. +\item [TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_TEXMFLOCAL] + Override \dirname{\$TEXLIVE_INSTALL_PREFIX/texmf-var}. +\item [TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_TEXMFSYSVAR] + Override \dirname{\$TEXLIVE_INSTALL_TEXDIR/texmf-var}. +\item [TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_TEXMFHOME] + Override \dirname{\$HOME/texmf}. +\end{ttdescription} + +It would be better to support a standard \acro{GNU}-style +\filename{configure} with options, instead of these environment +variables. Volunteers are welcome! + + +% +\subsection{Installing individual packages to disk} + +You can add individual packages or collections from the current +distribution to an existing non-\TL{} setup, or an earlier +\TL{} installation. + +\startinst + +Run the installation script \filename{install-pkg.sh} (not +\filename{install-tl.sh}, which is intended for complete installations +only): +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh \var{options}} +\end{alltt} + +The first set of options controls what gets read: + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [-{}-package=\var{pkgname}] The individual package to work on. + +\item [-{}-collection=\var{colname}] The individual collection to work on. + +\item [-{}-nodoc] Exclude documentation files from the operation. + +\item [-{}-nosrc] Exclude source files from the operation. + +\item [-{}-cddir=\var{dir}] Source directory to read from; defaults +to the current directory. If you followed the instructions above, that +will be the distribution directory, and won't need to be changed. + +\item [-{}-listdir=\var{dir}] The so-called `lists' directory within +\var{cddir} from which to read the package information. The only +reason to change the default is if you're making changes to \TL{} +yourself. + +\end{ttdescription} + +What actually happens is controlled by the following options. If +neither of these are specified, the default action is to install the +selected files. The main destination tree is found by expanding +\envname{\$TEXMFMAIN} with \cmdname{kpsewhich}. You can override it by +setting either the environment variable \envname{TEXMFMAIN} or +\envname{TEXMF}. + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [-{}-listonly] List the files that would be installed, but don't +actually install anything. + +\item [-{}-archive=\var{tarfile}] Instead of installing the files into +the \TeX{} system, make a \cmdname{tar} archive. + +\end{ttdescription} + +Additional options: + +\begin{ttdescription} + +\item [-{}-config] After installation, run \code{texconfig init}. + +\item [-{}-nohash] After installation, don't run \cmdname{mktexlsr} to +rebuild the filename database. + +\item [-{}-verbose] Give more information as the script runs. + +\end{ttdescription} + +Here are some usage examples: + +\begin{enumerate} + +\item To see the files in the package \pkgname{fancyhdr} without +installing it: + +\begin{alltt} +\ifSingleColumn> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh --package=fancyhdr --listonly} +\else> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh --package=fancyhdr \bs} +> \Ucom{--listonly} +\fi{} +texmf/doc/latex/fancyhdr/README +texmf/doc/latex/fancyhdr/fancyhdr.pdf +... +\end{alltt} + +\item Install the \LaTeX{} package \pkgname{natbib}: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh --package=natbib} +\end{alltt} + +\item Install the \LaTeX{} package \pkgname{alg} without source files or +documentation: +\begin{alltt} +\ifSingleColumn> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh --package=alg --nosrc --nodoc} +\else> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh -{}-package=alg \bs} +> \Ucom{-{}-nosrc -{}-nodoc} +\fi\end{alltt} + +\item Install all the packages in the collection of additional +plain \TeX\ macros: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh --collection=tex-plainextra} +\end{alltt} + +\item Write all files in the \pkgname{pstricks} package to a +\cmdname{tar} file in \path|/tmp|: +\begin{alltt} +\ifSingleColumn> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh --package=pstricks --archive=/tmp/pstricks.tar} +\else +> \Ucom{sh install-pkg.sh -{}-package=pstricks \bs} +> \Ucom{-{}-archive=/tmp/pstricks.tar} +\fi\end{alltt} + +\end{enumerate} + +\textifindoubt + + +% +\section{Post-installation} +\label{sec:postinstall} + +After the main installation is done, for any operating system, the +remaining steps are to configure the system for your local needs, and +perform some basic tests. + +Another sort of post-installation is to acquire packages, fonts, or +programs that were not included in \TL{}. The basic idea is to +install such additions in the \envname{TEXMFLOCAL} tree (if you +installed to disk), or \envname{TEXMFSYSVAR} (if you are running live). +See the ``Installation directories'' option on \p.\pageref{text:instdir}. + +Unfortunately, the details can and do vary widely, and so we do not attempt to +address them here. Here are some external links to descriptions: +\begin{itemize*} +\item +\url{http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instpackages} +\item +\url{http://www.ctan.org/installationadvice} +\item +\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/beginlatex/html/chapter5.html#pkginst} +\item +\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/Type1fonts} for +installation information for fonts in particular. +\end{itemize*} + + +\subsection{The \protect\cmdname{texconfig} program} +\label{sec:texconfig} + +At any time after installation, you can and should use the program +\cmdname{texconfig} to configure the system to fit your local needs. It +is installed in the architecture-specific subdirectory +\texttt{TEXDIR/bin/\var{arch}} along with everything else. + +If you run it without arguments, it will enter full-screen mode and +allow you to view and change options interactively. + +You can also run it with various command-line options. Here are some of +the most common (\TL{} is configured for the A4 paper size by default): + +\begin{ttdescription} + +\item [texconfig paper letter] Set default paper size for +various programs and drivers (\cmdname{pdftex}, \cmdname{dvips}, +\cmdname{dvipdfm}, \cmdname{xdvi}) to be \acro{US} letter. The other +allowable size is \optname{a4}, which is the default. + +\item [texconfig rehash] Update all the \TeX{} ``filename databases'', +after adding or removing files. + +\item [texconfig faq] Show the \teTeX{} \acro{FAQ}. +(See also the main \TeX{} \acro{FAQ} in \OnCD{texmf-doc/doc/english/FAQ-en}.) + +\item [texconfig help] Output help information for \cmdname{texconfig}. + +\end{ttdescription} + +Of course, \cmdname{texconfig} can only support changing a few of the +many options and configuration parameters in a \TeX{} system. The main +configuration file for the base \Webc{} programs is named +\filename{texmf.cnf}. You can find its location by running +\samp{kpsewhich texmf.cnf}; it contains many comments explaining the +default settings and useful alternatives. + +\cmdname{texconfig} alters files in a user-specific directory, as in +\dirname{$HOME/.texlive2007}. If you install \TeX\ just for yourself, +that is unlikely to make a difference. But if you install \TeX\ on a +multi-user system, you will want to change the configuration for the +whole system. In this case, run \cmdname{texconfig-sys} instead of +\cmdname{texconfig}. + +Likewise, the \cmdname{updmap} and \cmdname{fmtutil} scripts were +changed, to work under \dirname{$HOME/.texliveYYYY}. To alter system +directories, use \cmdname{updmap-sys} and \cmdname{fmtutil-sys}. + +In particular, for multi-user systems, you will probably want to +pregenerate the standard formats with \texttt{fmtutil-sys --missing}. +Otherwise, each user will end up with their own formats. + +Also, if you have a personally-modified copy of \filename{fmtutil.cnf} +or \filename{updmap.cfg}, instead of using the ones generated by +installation, they must be installed in the tree referenced by the +variable \envname{TEXMFSYSCONFIG}. + +The variables specifying the directories altered by these commands are +listed in section~\ref{sec:texmftrees}, \p.\pageref{sec:texmftrees}. +You can see the actual directories by running \texttt{texconfig conf}, +and you can change them by editing \filename{texmf.cnf}. + + +\subsection{Testing the installation} +\label{sec:test-install} + +After installing \TL{} as best you can, you naturally want to test +it out, so you can start creating beautiful documents and\slash or fonts. + +This section gives some basic procedures for testing that the new system +is functional. We give Unix commands; under \MacOSX{} and Windows, +you're more likely to run the tests through a graphical interface, but +the principles are the same. + +\begin{enumerate} + +\item Make sure that you can run the \cmdname{tex} program in the first +place: + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{tex -{}-version} +TeX 3.141592 (Web2C 7.5.5) +kpathsea version 3.5.5 +... +\end{alltt} +If this comes back with `command not found' instead of version and +copyright information, most likely you don't have the correct +\dirname{bin} subdirectory in your \envname{PATH}. See +the environment-setting information on \p.\pageref{text:path}. + +\item Process a basic \LaTeX{} file: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{latex sample2e.tex} +This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592... +... +Output written on sample2e.dvi (3 pages, 7496 bytes). +Transcript written on sample2e.log. +\end{alltt} +If this fails to find \filename{sample2e.tex} or other files, perhaps +you have interference from old environment variables or configuration +files. For a deep analysis, you can always ask \TeX{} to report on +exactly what it is searching for, and finding; see ``Debugging actions'' +on page~\pageref{Debugging}. + +\item Preview the result online: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{xdvi sample2e.dvi} +\end{alltt} +(Under Windows, the analogous command is \cmdname{dviout}.) You should +see a new window with a nice document explaining some of the basics of +\LaTeX{}. (Well worth reading, by the way if you're new to the system.) +You do have to be running under X for \cmdname{xdvi} to work; if you're +not, or your \envname{DISPLAY} environment variable is set incorrectly, +you'll get an error \samp{Can't open display}. + +\item Create a \PS{} file for printing or display: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{dvips sample2e.dvi -o sample2e.ps} +\end{alltt} + +\item Create a \acro{PDF} file instead of \dvi{}; this processes the +\filename{.tex} file and writes \acro{PDF} directly: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{pdflatex sample2e.tex} +\end{alltt} + +\item Preview the \acro{PDF} file: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{gv sample2e.pdf} +\textrm{or:} +> \Ucom{xpdf sample2e.pdf} +\end{alltt} +Unfortunately neither \cmdname{gv} nor \cmdname{xpdf} are currently +included in \TL{}, so you must install them separately. See +\url{http://www.gnu.org/software/gv} and +\url{http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf}, respectively. + +\item Other standard test files you may find useful: + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item [small2e.tex] A simpler document than \filename{sample2e}, to +reduce the input size if you're having troubles. +\item [testpage.tex] Test if your printer introduces any offsets. +\item [nfssfont.tex] For printing font tables and tests. +\item [testfont.tex] Also for font tables, but using plain \TeX{}. +\item [story.tex] The most canonical (plain) \TeX{} test file of all. +You must type \samp{\bs bye} to the \code{*} prompt after \samp{tex +story.tex}. +\end{ttdescription} +You can process these in the same way as we did with +\filename{sample2e.tex}. + +\end{enumerate} + +If you are new to \TeX{}, or otherwise need help with actually +constructing \TeX{} or \LaTeX{} documents, please visit +\url{http://tug.org/begin.html} for some introductory resources. + + +\section{\MacOSX{} installation} +\label{sec:mac-install} + +The recommended way to install \TeX\ on \MacOSX\ is from the Mac\TeX\ +distribution, new in 2005. This is provided on the \pkgname{live} +\DVD{} in the top-level \dirname{mactex/} directory. It contains its +own (native) installer for a full \TeX\ distribution, based on a +combination of te\TeX\ and \TL, along with many additional applications +and documentation. The project web page is \url{http://tug.org/mactex}. + +If you prefer, installation of \TeX{} under \MacOSX{} can also be done +directly from \TL, using the \filename{install*} scripts, as follows. + +In order to run the installation scripts under \MacOSX, you need to have +the \cmdname{bash} shell installed. If you are running \MacOSX~10.2 +or later, you have \cmdname{bash}, and can proceed. If you're running +an earlier \MacOSX{} version, however, the default shell is +\cmdname{zsh}, which won't work; you'll need to get \cmdname{bash} from +the Internet, or more likely upgrade your system. + +Once you have \cmdname{bash}, the Unix installation documentation in the +previous section can be followed. See section~\ref{sec:unix-install} on +\p.\pageref{sec:unix-install}; \MacOSX-specific notes are included there +where needed. + +\section{Windows installation} +\label{sec:win-install} + +In this release of \TL{}, happily, the distribution once +again has a native Windows installer, named \cmdname{tlpmgui.exe}. (See +section~\ref{sec:multiple-dist}, \p.\pageref{sec:multiple-dist}, for an +explanation of the different distributions.) + +\cmdname{tlpmgui} has essentially the same options as the Unix +installer, only done through a GUI interface: selecting schemes, +individual collections, installation directories, and so on. +Section~\ref{sec:unix-install-disk} on +\p.\pageref{sec:unix-install-disk} describes the basic elements. It +also allows some post-installation activities such as adding/removing +packages, updating the filename database and building formats. +Moreover, \cmdname{tlpmgui} can setup the system for running +programs directly from the \DVD. + +For those who like to look underneath the hood, \cmdname{tlpmgui} uses +as its ``engine'' a command-line Windows program named \cmdname{tlpm}. + +The Windows \TeX{} system included in \TL{} is based on new binaries +borrowed from the \acro{W32TEX} distribution, kindly provided by Akira Kakuto. +It also includes some older (but still working) tools made by Fabrice +Popineau, and also a new \texttt{dvi} previewer, \textsf{dviout} by +Toshio Oshima. + +\TL{} can be installed on systems running Windows 98, \acro{ME}, +\acro{NT}, \acro{2K} or \acro{XP}. Older versions of Windows (3.1x) +and \acro{MS-DOS} are not supported. + +\textbf{Warning:} Win9.x users must ensure they have enough environment + space before undertaking installation. The \cmdname{tlpmgui.exe} + program won't change the environment size for them. A few environment + variables will be created and it is possible you run out of + environment space. Add \texttt{SHELL=<path>COMMAND.COM /E:4096 /P} in the + config.sys file in order to increase your environment size. + +\subsection{Installing \protect\TeX\protect\ Live to disk} + +After inserting the \TL{} \acro{CD} into the \acro{CD} drive, autostart should +activate \cmdname{tlpmgui}. If it does not, click \guiseq{Start\arw Run}, +then type \verb|<drive letter>:\setuptl\tplmgui.exe| (or +\verb|<drive letter>:\texlive\setuptl\tplmgui.exe| if you are +installing from the \TeX\ Collection \acro{DVD}), where \verb|<drive letter>| +is the drive letter with the \TeX\ Live \acro{CD} (or TeX Collection +\acro{DVD}), and then click \acro{OK}. + +The installation window titled \guiseq{TeX Live installation and maintenance +utility} should open. It contains the following sections: \guiseq{Main +customization}, \guiseq{Install}, \guiseq{Select a scheme}, \guiseq{Select +systems}, \guiseq{Directories} and \guiseq{Options}. + +By default, \cmdname{tlpmgui} tries to detect if \TeX{} is already +installed and depending on the result starts either in fresh +installation or maintenance mode. If you have \TeX{} already installed +but want to install the new version nevertheless, you can use +\texttt{tlpmgui~--install-mode} to force installation mode; but you +should know what you are doing, as the new \TL{} installation will +override the environment variables and other settings of the existing +installation; reverting to your old installation is not automatically +supported. + +Diagnostic information is collected by \cmdname{tlpmgui} in a log file +which is deleted at the end of the run, along with any other temporary +files. Invoking with \texttt{--debug} displays the names and contents +of all \cmdname{tlpmgui} temporary files in a separate window. + +In the \guiseq{Directories} section the installation drive (directory) +next to the \guiseq{CD/DVD} button should be displayed (e.g., +\texttt{F:/} or \texttt{F:/texlive/} for the \acro{DVD}), but if it is not, +then click the \guiseq{CD/DVD} button and select the \acro{CD/DVD} +drive, with the \TL{} \acro{CD} (or \TeX\ Collection \acro{DVD}). + +The directory in which you wish to install the software can be set by +clicking the \guiseq{TLroot} button. This directory will be set as +\path|TLroot| environment variable for later usage. + +In the \guiseq{Select a scheme} section the desired \TL{} installation scheme +should be chosen by clicking the radio button labelled with the installation +scheme name (e.g., \guiseq{scheme-gust}). Each scheme is accompanied by an +\guiseq{Info} button which, when clicked, displays a short description of the +relevant scheme. + +A scheme is a large set of files targeted at some kind of usage. There are +generic schemes for basic, medium and full installations. The remaining ones +are either targeted at certain LUGs (i.e., what GUST or GUTenberg propose +for their members) or application targeted (e.g., for XML and \TeX{} +cooperation). A preselected scheme can be refined. This is done in the +\guiseq{Main customization} section by choosing additional collections from +\guiseq{Standard collections} or \guiseq{Language collections}. For example, +by clicking the \guiseq{Select} button labelled \guiseq{Standard +collections}, additional collections like Metapost, Omega or documentation +in different languages can be selected. + +\guiseq{Wintools} collection is selected by default as it contains many small +programs, usually absent in Windows, which can be handy, like graphics +converters: \cmdname{sam2p}, \cmdname{jpeg2ps}, \cmdname{tiff2png}; +(de)compression programs: \cmdname{bzip2}, \cmdname{gzip}, \cmdname{unzip}, +and \cmdname{wget} which is needed for \cmdname{getnonfreefonts} (new) +utility. + +Next, clicking the \guiseq{Select} button labelled \guiseq{Language +Collections} in the \guiseq{Main customization} section opens the +\guiseq{Language collections} window in which the installation language can +be chosen by ticking the box next to the language. + +Next, click the \guiseq{Install} button in the \guiseq{Install} section to +start the installation proper process. + +\textbf{Note:} The \guiseq{Perl} and \guiseq{Ghostscript} are installed only +on demand. They should be installed unless they are already installed and you +really know what you are doing. Both programs are required by many important +tools. The \verb|PERL5LIB| and \verb|GS_LIB| environment variables will be +set too, as well the path to Ghostscript binaries will be added to the +\verb|PATH| variable. + +The \TL{} system needs some post-processing steps (format files +generation, ls-R databases generation, environment variables, etc.). All +these operations are done there, some of them can be lengthy. So please wait +until you see a statement about the successfully finished installation. + +The shortcut for \cmdname{tlpmgui} (and also \cmdname{dviout}, if installed) +will be added to the menu \guiseq{Start\arw Programs\arw TeXLive2007}. + +If it is needed (Win9x/WinME), you will be asked to reboot your computer. + +\subsection{Support packages for Windows} +\label{sec:win-xemtex} + +To be complete, a \TL installation needs support packages that are not +commonly found on a Windows machine. Many scripts are written using the Perl +language. Some important tools require the Ghostscript \PS{} interpreter to +render or to convert files. A graphic file toolbox is also needed in some +cases. Last but not least, a \TeX-oriented editor makes it easy to type in +your \TeX{} files. + +All these tools are quite easy to find for Windows, but in order to try to +make your life even easier, we have put such a set of tools on \TL: +\begin{itemize*} +\item GNU \cmdname{Ghostscript} 8.54 +\item a minimal \cmdname{Perl} 5.8, sufficient to run all the \TL{} + Perl scripts. +\item win-tools is a set of small programs (bzip2, gzip, jpeg2ps + and tiff2png) +%\item a subset of \cmdname{ImageMagick} 5.5.6 +%\item the \cmdname{ISpell} checker +%\item \cmdname{XEmacs} 21.5.14 with a selection of packages to support +%\TeX{} typesetting. +\end{itemize*} + +Perl and Ghostscript are installed upon request; you may explicitly +deselect them during installation if you already have them. + +If you don't want to install this bundle, then you are on your own to +install the required tools to complete your \TL{} system. Here is a +list of places to get those tools: + +\begin{description} +\item[Ghostscript] \url{http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/} +\item[Perl] \url{http://www.activestate.com/} (but you might need some + supplementary packages from CPAN: \url{http://www.cpan.org/}) +\item[ImageMagick] \url{http://www.imagemagick.com} +\item[NetPBM] alternatively, you could use NetPBM instead of ImageMagick to + process or convert your graphic files. NetPBM home page is + \url{http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/} +\item[\TeX-oriented editors] There is a wide choice, and it is a matter of the + user's taste. Here is a selection: + \begin{itemize*} + \item \cmdname{GNU Emacs} is available natively under Windows, see + \url{http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html} + \item \cmdname{Emacs} with AucTeX is available natively under Windows, see + \url{ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/auctex} + \item \cmdname{WinShell} is available on \TL in the \path|support| + directory, see \url{http://www.winshell.de} + \item \cmdname{WinEdt} is shareware available from \url{http://www.winedt.com} + \item \cmdname{Vim} is available from \url{http://www.vim.org} + \item TeXnicCenter is free software, available from + \url{http://www.toolscenter.org} and in the proTeXt distribution. + \item \cmdname{LEd} is available from \url{http://www.ctan.org/support/LEd} + \item \cmdname{SciTE} is available from \url{http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html} + \end{itemize*} +\end{description} + +You might want to install other tools that are not free\footnote{Not +free, that is, in the sense of freedom to modify and redistribute, +following free software guidelines. This does not mean you can't acquire +them for no money.} and therefore not included on \TL{}, such as +\cmdname{GSView}, the \cmdname{Ghostscript} companion to more +conveniently view PS/PDF files. \cmdname{GSView} is available from +\url{http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/gsview/} or any \acro{CTAN} site. + +\section{Maintenance of the installation in Windows} + +If you have \TeX\ Live installed, you can use \cmdname{tlpmgui} again +for modifying and maintaining your installation. + +\subsection{Adding/removing packages} + +As the \cmdname{tlpmgui} shortcut is available in the \guiseq{Start\arw +Programs\arw TeXLive2007} menu, start it from here. The maintenance window +titled \guiseq{TeX Live installation and maintenance utility} shows. It +contains several tabs: \guiseq{Add Packages}, \guiseq{Remove packages}, +\guiseq{Manage installation}, \guiseq{Remove installation}. + +Click the tab labelled \guiseq{Add packages} or \guiseq{Remove packages} +to enter the relevant functionality and then: + +\begin{itemize} +\item In the first tab select the proper \CD{} drive (or \DVD with + \texttt{texlive} directory) by pressing the \guiseq{CD/DVD} button. +\item Click the \guiseq{Search} button in the \guiseq{Buttons} section to +display or refresh in the \guiseq{Select packages to\dots} section the +list of packages to install or remove. + +When adding packages, the list of installed packages is compared to the list +of packages available from your \CD/\DVD. Only packages not already installed are +displayed. It is up to you to select which packages you want to +install. + +When removing individual packages, only a list of installed packages +will be displayed. + +Please note that for both \guiseq{Add packages} and \guiseq{Remove packages} +the collections are listed first. + +\item Select a package by clicking on the name of the package. Clicking the +\guiseq{Info} button in the \guiseq{Buttons} section displays a short +description of the selected package in the window located in the \guiseq{Info +about the selected item} section. To select several packages at once hold +down one of the Ctrl or Shift keys at your keyboard while holding down the +left mouse button or drag the mouse pointer while holding down the left mouse +button. + +\item Click the \guiseq{Install} or \guiseq{Remove} button in the +\guiseq{Buttons} section to perform the appropriate action. +\end{itemize} + +\subsection{Configuring and other management tasks} + +The functions available in the tab labelled \guiseq{Manage the installation} +are helpful in performing actions needed when you want to add support for a +language which was not selected during the installation, or add/regenerate a +format which was not selected during the installation or was modified after +the installation. + +The following actions can be performed: + +\begin{itemize} +\item Refresh the \filename{ls-R} database +\item Create formats (All or Missing) +\item Edit \filename{language.dat} +\item Edit \filename{fmtutil.cnf} +\item Edit \filename{updmap.cfg} +\end{itemize} + +Note: you can close the Edit\dots{} window with the \guiseq{Cancel} or +\guiseq{Done} button; the latter will start rebuilding the format files +(or the fontmap files if you have edited \filename{updmap.cfg}), followed by a +\filename{ls-R} database files refresh. + +For more information about the configuration see section~\ref{sec:persconf}, +\p.\pageref{sec:persconf}. + +\subsection{Uninstalling \protect\TL{}} + +The tab labelled \guiseq{Remove the TeX Live installation} opens a window +which contains functionality not worth describing and we do not know who would +need it and what it is for\dots :-) + +Anyway, if you have the \path|texmf-local| directory for your local additions, +the removal procedure will not wipe it out or delete things in it. However, +it will be done only if you select it explicitly. The \path|setuptl| +directory containing \cmdname{tlpmgui} and related files will not be deleted. +You will have to do some manual cleanup to actually remove them. + +\subsection{Adding your own packages to the installation} + +First, whatever changes you make, \textbf{do not forget to rebuild the ls-R +database files}. Otherwise, your new files will not be found. You can do this +either via the \cmdname{tlpmgui} run and selection of the appropriate action +from the \guiseq{Manage the installation} tab, or manually running the +\file{mktexlsr} command. + +If you want to add files that are not provided by the \TL{} distribution, +it is recommended to put them in the \path|$TEXMFLOCAL| directory. This +way, you will be safe against upgrades of the \TL{} software. + +The directory pointed to by \path|$TEXMFLOCAL| is initially empty. If, +for example, you want to add the support file for the Maple symbolic +computation program, you will have to put the style files in:\\ +\path|c:\TeXLive2007\texmf-local\tex\latex\maple\|\\ and the +documentation files in:\\ \path|c:\TeXLive2007\texmf-local\doc\latex\maple\| + +\subsection{Running \texttt{tlmp.exe} from the command line} +The \cmdname{tlpm.exe} program which is used as engine by \cmdname{tlpmgui} +has a number of other useful options. You can get the list by running: +\begin{verbatim} +tlpm --help +\end{verbatim} + +More information and examples of use can be found in \path|tlpm.readme|. + +\subsection{Network installation} + +\KPS{} knows about UNC names, so you can use them to get your TEXMF +tree from the network. But there is better than this. +All the support files and configuration files, everything except the files in the +\path|bin/win32| are shareable with a \teTeX{} or Unix \TL{} installation. That means +you can use Samba either to mount from an NT server to a Unix +workstation or the converse. Several strategies are possible: +\begin{itemize} +\item Put everything on the server. Just add each set of files for the OS and +architecture you want to use in the \path|bin| directory. That means +for example \path|bin/win32| and \path|bin/i386-linux|. Next configure +your main variables. You can use UNC names to +point to the right directories under Win32. +\item Install a local copy for the binaries and format files. In this + case, assign \path|$TEXMFMAIN| to the main \path|texmf| tree that + will be accessed remotely. Set \path|$TEXMFVAR| to be a local + directory which will hold local configuration files and on-the-fly + generated files. +\end{itemize} + +\subsection{What's different in Windows?} + +The Windows version of \Webc{} has some specific features that should be +pointed out. + +\begin{description} +\item[\cmdname{kpsecheck}] This command provides some options that did + not fit well into \cmdname{kpsewhich}. It will allow you to list all + the files that occur multiple times across your texmf trees. This + could be handy, but most of the time you will also get unwanted + output (like dozens of \path|README| files). It is noticeable + that all these files result in clashes inside the \KPS{}-hashing + mechanism; fortunately, \KPS{} never looks for these files. For + this reason, you can combine the \path|-multiple-occurrences| with 2 + other options for including or excluding any filename that match + some pattern (you can request for several patterns). + + The \cmdname{kpsecheck} command will also report the status of shared + memory: in use or not used. That might be useful to know because if + the status reported is \samp{in use}, that means one or several + processes are working, and the effect of any \cmdname{mktexlsr} + command will be delayed until the next time where no \KPS{} linked + process will be running. + + Last, this same command will report about the location it thinks + Ghostscript can be found. Under Win32, for many programs, it is + easier to use the Ghostscript dll, and find it by using the + Ghostscript registry key than to change the \path|PATH|, which has a + limited length anyway. +\item[\Webc{}] The engines have one more option than in Unix \Webc: + \begin{itemize} + \item \path|-proctimes| print statistics about the job run + time. It is to be noted that Win9x not being a true multitasking + operating system, it has no reliable timer for short periods, so + the value printed is an approximation. Under NT/2K/XP, the result + is quite accurate with user time and system time values allocated + for this run. For Unix + users: the \path|time| command is not usually available to Windows + users. + \end{itemize} +\end{description} + +\subsection{Personal configurations} +\label{sec:persconf} + +\subsubsection{Dvips} + +The configuration file for dvips can be found in\\ +\verb+C:\TeXLive2007\texmf-var\dvips\config\config.ps+\\ +You may open it with any editor + %(\cmdname{WinShell} will do fine) + and change some parameters: + +\begin{description} +\item [fonts] you can change the default printer \MF{} mode or printer + resolution in case \cmdname{dvips} needs to generate PK fonts. By default it + is configured to use Type~1 versions of the CM fonts, so it should + not call \cmdname{mktexpk} too often; +\item[printer] you can tell dvips where you want to print by default. If + the \optname{o} option is not followed by a printer name, then a + \file{.ps} \PS{} file is written. You can give dvips a printer + name such as: +\begin{verbatim} +o lpt1: +% o | lpr -S server -P myprinter +% o \\server\myprinter +\end{verbatim} +\item[paper] Next, you might want + to change the paper size from European (A4) to US letter + by making the US letter the first paper size mentioned in the file. + Scroll to the group of lines beginning with \code{@}. Move + the appropriate lines so that this section begins with the lines:\\ +\hspace*{1em} @ letterSize 8.5in 11in\\ +\hspace*{1em} @ letter 8.5in 11in\\ +\hspace*{1em} @+ \%\%BeginPaperSize: Letter\\ +\hspace*{1em} @+ letter\\ +\hspace*{1em} @+ \%\%EndPaperSize +\end{description} + +The current \TL{} distribution implements the procedure of making always +up-to-date fontmaps files for Dvips and Pdftex. This is done by the +\cmdname{updmap} program during installation. +If you add new font packages using the installation program or by hand, +edit the file \verb+updmap.cfg+ in \path|$TEXMFVAR/web2c|. + +\subsubsection{PdfTeX} + +If you use the program pdf{}latex to write \acro{PDF} format directly, +and you are using \acro{US} letter-size paper, edit the file +\verb+C:\TeXLive2007\texmf-var\tex\generic\config\pdftexconfig.tex+ and +change \samp{\bs pdfpagewidth} and \samp{\bs pdfpageheight}. These entries +should read: +\begin{alltt} +\bs{}pdfpagewidth=8.5 true in +\bs{}pdfpageheight=11 true in +\end{alltt} +Save the file and exit the editor. + +\subsubsection{Xe\TeX} +Xe\TeX{} for Windows is linked statically with fontconfig 2.4.2. +A configuration file for fontconfig is \verb+fonts.conf+. For details, +see the file \verb+fonts.conf+ itself which is in a directory shown by +the command \texttt{kpsewhich --var-value=FONTCONFIG\_PATH}. + +\subsubsection{GSView} +GSView is now distributed under the Aladdin License, and therefore is no +longer included in \TL{}. + +You may want to change the page size to US letter size. If so, open +GSView from the \guiseq{Start} menu, and select \guiseq{Media\arw Letter}. + +Also, there are menu settings that are supposed to give you the most +readable screen image. On \guiseq{Media \arw Display Settings}, set both +\optname{Text Alpha} and \optname{Graphics Alpha} to 4~bits. + +Note that the installation process has set all \code{.ps} and +\code{.eps} files to automatically open with \cmdname{GSView}. + +For printing instructions, see section~\ref{printing} below. + + +\subsection{Testing} + +For generic verification procedures, see section~\ref{sec:test-install} +(\p.\pageref{sec:test-install}). This section describes +Windows-specific tests. + +Open the file \verb+sample2e.tex+ in your editor (Xemacs, WinShell), +found in \path|C:\TeXLive2007\texmf-dist\tex\latex\base|. The \LaTeX\ source +should appear on the screen. Process it by clicking on the +\guiseq{Command\arw LaTeX} menu (XEmacs) or \LaTeX\ icon on the toolbar +(WinShell), then view it by clicking on the \guiseq{Command\arw View DVI} +menu (XEmacs) or Preview (dviout) icon (WinShell). + +At first, when you preview files with \cmdname{dviout}, it will create fonts +because screen fonts were not installed. After a while, you will have created +most of the fonts you use, and you will rarely see the font-creation window. + +\textbf{Hint for the future:} If a \LaTeX\ run stops because \LaTeX\ +cannot find a file, you can press Ctrl-z to quit. + + +\subsection{Printing} +\label{printing} + +It is possible to print from \cmdname{dviout}. In this case, printing +will be done using the Windows unified printer driver. By definition, it is +compatible with all printers. However, there is some drawback: it can +generate some huge spool files, and some (older) versions of Windows +just don't like them. The advantage is that you can use features like +embedding BMP or WMF images. You also need to make sure that the printer +parameters are correctly set, else you +will get scaled printing (printing at 600\dpi{} on a 300\dpi{} printer +will give you only one quadrant of your page). + +Printing is faster and more reliable if you run \cmdname{dvips} to make +a \filename{.ps} file and then print from \cmdname{GSView}. In +\cmdname{GSview}, select \guiseq{File\arw Print\ldots}. A \guiseq{Print} +window will appear. + +If you are using a \PS{} printer, \textit{be sure to select +\guiseq{\PS{} Printer}}. This is done in the \guiseq{Print Method} box +at the bottom left of the \guiseq{Print} window. You can then select any +of the printers that you have previously installed. If you fail to +check the box for \optname{\PS{} Printer}, printing will not work. + +If you will be using your own non-\PS{} printer, select +\guiseq{Ghostscript device} in the \guiseq{Print Method} box, then click +on the button to the right labelled \guiseq{djet500} and select your +printer type from the list that pops up. (In the older version of +\cmdname{GSView}, make sure \optname{\PS{} Printer} is \textit{not} +selected, then select your printer type from the \guiseq{Device} list.) + +\subsection{Tips and tricks for Win32} + +\subsubsection{Different flavors of Win32} + +What we call Win32 is not an operating system by itself. It is a large +set of functions (around 12,000 in the header files of the Microsoft +\acro{SDK}) that you can use to write programs for different operating +systems of the Windows family. + +Windows comes in different flavors: +\begin{itemize} +\item Win95, Win98 and Win\acro{ME}, which \emph{are not true multitasking, + multithreading} environments, but rather updated incarnations of + \acro{DOS}. This can be more or less proven by the fact that when + booting, the PC will load the \path|command.com| interpreter, and if + you stop the boot process at this point, you can ask for the current + (\acro{DOS}) version and it will answer something like \samp{MS-DOS + 7.0} (at least for the old versions of Win9x). +\item Windows \acro{NT}, which is a new operating system written from + scratch, capable of true multitasking behavior, and including many + high level features. +\item Windows 2000, based on \acro{NT}, with all the bells and + whistles of Win98. +\item Windows \acro{XP}, which comes with Personal and Pro flavors. This is + the last step in merging both lines of products (Win9x based and + \acro{NT} based). \acro{XP} is based on \acro{NT}. +\end{itemize} + +Win9x are able to run 32~bits programs and 16~bits programs +concurrently. But the operating system by itself is not entirely +written in 32~bits mode, and does not support memory protection: 16bits +applications can overwrite parts of the operating system memory! Some +parts of the system like the \acro{GDI} (Graphical Device Interface) +manage limited resources like bitmaps, fonts, pens and so on for the set +of all programs that run concurrently. All the bitmaps headers available +at the same time can't amount for more than 64kB. This explains the +performance tool and the fact that you can put your system on his knees +by making intensive use of graphic objects for example. + +NT, 2K and XP do not suffer from these limitations, and neither from +other Win9x limitations. They are true multitasking environments, with +protected memory. They are much more responsive than Win9x because +of better memory management, better file system and so on. + +\subsubsection{Command line prompt} + +You may wonder, ``Why would I need to use a command line prompt when +I have Windows?'' + +Good question! The problem is of very general nature. Not all operations +can be done easily using only a \acro{GUI}. Command line gives you +programming power\Dash assuming a clever command interpreter. + +But the problem here is more fundamental: \TeX{} is \emph{a batch} +tool. Not an interactive one. \TeX{} needs to compute the best +layout for each page, resolve cross-references and so on. This can be +done only by a global processing of the document. It is not (yet) a +task that can be done interactively. + +This means that you should use \TeX{} from a command line. In fact the +situation is not so bad. There is an advantage to write command line +tools for complex processing: they are better debugged, because they are +independent of any \acro{GUI} problems, and \acro{GUI} tools can be +designed to interface to the command line tools. This is the case for +\TeX{}, where you will mostly interact with it through a \acro{GUI} text +editor. + +However, you may need to use the command line prompt in a number of +situations. One is when you are having difficulties and want to debug +your setup. + +\begin{description} + \item[Win9x] You can open a command line prompt by looking either for + the \acro{MS-DOS} icon in the \guiseq{Start\arw Programs} menu, + or by choosing \guiseq{Start\arw Run} menu typing in + \path|command.com| as the program name. + \item[NT, 2K, XP] You can open a command line prompt by looking for + \guiseq{Command Prompt} in the \guiseq{Start\arw Accessories} menu. + You can also choose \guiseq{Start\arw Run} and type in + \path|cmd.exe|, which is the name of the brand new command + interpreter for \acro{NT} (thus, it is untrue to call this a + \emph{DOS} box!). +\end{description} + +These locations may change across different Windows versions. + +\subsubsection{Path separators} + +The Win32 API understands both \path|/| and \path|\| characters as PATH +separators. But the command interpreters do not! So whenever a path name +is used programmatically, you can use both separators, and even mix them +up in the same path name. But on the command line, you must type +\path|\| as path separator. The reason is compatibility: the command +processor used \samp{/} to introduce arguments to commands. + +All this to say: do not be surprised to read path names written using +the Unix convention; Windows-\TL{} is a port of \Webc, and aims to be +compatible across platforms. For this reason, all the configuration files +that need to specify path names use the Unix convention. + +\subsubsection{File systems} +\label{sec:clusters} + +The worst feature of Win9x with regard to \TeX{} is probably the +so-called FAT file system. \TeX{} uses very many small files, with size +around 1--3kB. The \acro{FAT} file system is old, and predates by +decades the multi-gigabytes hard disks we have today. As a result, it +cannot manage efficiently the tens of thousands of \TeX{} files found in +\TL{}. The \acro{FAT} file system allocates a minimum of 32kB for +\emph{any} file on a huge partition. It means that \TeX{} will use much +more disk space than it actually needs. + +The other, more modern, file systems available, \acro{FAT32} and +\acro{NTFS}, do not have this drawback. They manage clusters of 4kB +only. (You can lower the limit to 512 bytes on \acro{NTFS}.) + +\subsubsection{How to add some directory to your PATH} + +There are pairs of variables and values which behave much like global +variables inside your programs. The set of those variables is called the +environment. Each program is initialized with a copy of the +environment when it is run. It can request and change the +value of any variable. The changes happen in the copy of the +environment, and is not at all propagated to the other running +programs. + +Your PATH is a special environment variable used to search for +programs you want to run. +There is a different procedure to change it for Win9x, WinME and NT/2K/XP: + +\begin{description} +\item[Windows 95/98] Edit your \path|autoexec.bat|. In this file should be a line + starting with \texttt{PATH=} and followed by a list of directories separated + by \path|;|. Please add the directory with the executables in this line. + After this, this line could look as follows: +\begin{verbatim} +PATH=c:\windows;c:\windows\system;c:\TeXLive2007\bin\win32 +\end{verbatim} +\item[Windows ME] You need to run the special program + \path|c:\windows\system\msconfig.exe| to be able to change any + environment variable. From this program, select the `Environment' + tab, and then add or modify the variable you want. You will be asked to reboot the + machine upon any change. +\item[Windows NT/2K/XP] + Click left on \guiseq{Start \arw Settings \arw Control Panel}. Now the + window with the control panel icons opens. Double click on System. The + System Properties window opens. Click on the tab \textsf{Environment} + or look for a button named \guiseq{Environment Variables} among the + dialog boxes. Now you can change the environment variables for your + user account. Note: There are also displayed the environment settings + for the system. Normally, you can't change the system variables + unless you have administrator rights on your machine. If you want to + change the \texttt{PATH} for all users, you will have to contact your + system administrator or be the system administrator yourself\Dash in + the latter case you should know what you are doing. + + If there is already a \texttt{PATH} setting for your user account, + left click on \texttt{PATH}. In the field \textsf{Variable} appears + \texttt{PATH} while the field Value shows the current setting of + \texttt{PATH} as a list of directories separated by \path|;|. Add + the directory where the executables are located (e.g. + \path|c:\TeXLive2007\bin\win32|). If there isn't a \texttt{PATH} variable + for your user account, simply click in the field Variable and type + in \texttt{PATH}, click in the field \textsf{Value} + and type in the directory with the executables. Important: Click on + the \textsf{Apply} button before clicking \textsf{Ok}, otherwise the + changes to \texttt{PATH} won't apply to your system. Be careful when + changing the environment settings. +\end{description} + +The best way to be sure that a variable has been properly set is to +open a console and type: +\begin{verbatim} +set VARIABLE +\end{verbatim} +which should return the corresponding value. + +\subsubsection{\TeX{} engines} + +If you have a look at the \Webc{} documentation, you will read that all +the various \TeX{} derived programs use the same base engine. For +example, \path|tex.exe| and \path|latex.exe| are exact copies of the +same program, but each one will use a different format file, based on +its calling name. + +Under Unix, this feature is implemented through \emph{symbolic +links}. It saves up a bit of disk space, because some engines are +used with many different format files. + +The Win32 API does not know about file links. So to save up almost +the same amount of memory, all the \TeX{} base engines have been put +in DLLs (\emph{Dynamic Linked Library}). This means that you will have +the following layout: +\begin{alltt} +2006-11-23 07:06 2 560 latex.exe +2007-01-06 23:54 1 073 664 pdftex.dll +2006-01-28 08:05 2 560 pdftex.exe +\end{alltt} +and the \path|latex.exe| file is nothing but a rough copy of +\path|pdftex.exe| using the same core \path|pdftex.dll|. +The same trick has been used for the \path|mktex*.exe| family of programs +which are linked to the \path|mktex.dll| library. + +In fact, a generic tool called \path|irun.exe| is provided to build the +equivalent of Unix hard links for executable files only under Win32. + +\subsection{In case of problems} +\label{sec:troubleshooting} + +\subsubsection{What to do if \texttt{latex} does not find your files?} + +\begin{itemize} + +\item \cmdname{kpsewhich} is the tool of choice to debug any +problem. However, \cmdname{kpsewhich} outputs debug information to +stderr, and the older Windows consoles do not know how to redirect +stderr to a file. (Windows NT and later do support redirections, but +the trick below will work for any console.) For diagnostic purposes you +can temporarily set an environment variable (in a \acro{DOS}/\acro{cmd} box): + +\begin{verbatim} +SET KPATHSEA_DEBUG_OUTPUT=err.log +\end{verbatim} +You can also set the debug level: +\begin{verbatim} +SET KPATHSEA_DEBUG=-1 +\end{verbatim} + +Similarly, to redirect stderr to stdout: +\begin{verbatim} +SET KPATHSEA_DEBUG_OUTPUT=con: +\end{verbatim} +This way you can capture both stdout and stderr in the same file. +\item Assuming the installation has been done in \path|c:/TeX|, check + the following values: \\ + {\small + \begin{tabular}{ll} + \path|kpsewhich -expand-path $SELFAUTOPARENT| & \path|c:/TeX| \\ + \path|kpsewhich -expand-path $TEXMF| & \path|c:/TeX/texmf....| \\ + \path|kpsewhich -expand-path $TEXMFCNF| & + \path|.;c:/TeX/texmf-var/web2c;| \\ + \path|kpsewhich -expand-var $TEXINPUTS| & \path|.;c:/TeX/texmf/tex//| + \end{tabular} +} +\item If you have other \TeX{}-related values already set in your + environment, please, remove them. They are overriding the ones in + texmf.cnf. +\item Check the values from:\\ +{\small + \begin{tabular}{ll} + \texttt{kpsewhich cmr10.tfm} & \path|c:/TeX/texmf-dist/fonts/tfm/public/cm/cmr10.tfm|\\ + \texttt{kpsewhich latex.fmt}& \path|c:/TeX/texmf-var/web2c/latex.fmt| + \end{tabular} +} +\item At this point, if everything is correct, \TeX{} and friends + should work. If it is not the case, you will need to play with + the \path|-debug=n| option from \path|kpsewhich|, and check back all + the values. Try to identify and report the problem. +\end{itemize} + +\subsubsection{What to do if your setup still does not work as expected?} + +Here are several questions to investigate: + +\begin{enumerate} +\item Is \file{tex.exe} in my \path|PATH|? + +\item Is the \path|TEXMFCNF| variable correctly set to +\path|c:/TeXLive2007/texmf-var/web2c| (default value)? + +\item Are there any errors in the log file generated by the +\file{tlmpgui.exe} program? +\file{tlmpgui.log} can be found in your +\file{TEMP} directory. You can find this by searching for the +string \samp{Error}. Hint: the log file can show some errors after +building all format files. Please do not panic: perhaps some formats +weren't already installed. + +\item Are there any relevant bug fixes at \url{http://tug.org/texlive/}? +(Unlikely, but it doesn't hurt to check.) + +\end{enumerate} + +The \TL{} software consists of hundreds of programs and tens of +thousands of files, all from varying sources. So it is quite difficult to +predict all possible causes for problems. Nevertheless, we will do our +best to help you. (See section~\ref{sec:help}, \p.\pageref{sec:help}.) + +% don't use \Webc so the \uppercase in the headline works. +\section{A user's guide to Web2C} + +\Webc{} is an integrated collection of \TeX-related programs: \TeX{} +itself, \MF{}, \MP, \BibTeX{}, etc. It is the heart of \TL{}. + +A bit of history: The original implementation was by Tomas Rokicki who, +in 1987, developed a first \TeX{}-to-C system based on change files +under Unix, which were primarily the original work of Howard Trickey and +Pavel Curtis. Tim Morgan became the maintainer of the system, and +during this period the name changed to Web-to-C\@. In 1990, Karl Berry +took over the work, assisted by dozens of additional contributors, and +in 1997 he handed the baton to Olaf Weber. + +The \Webc{} system runs on Unix, 32-bit Windows systems, \MacOSX{}, and +other operating systems. It uses Knuth's original sources for \TeX{} and +other basic programs written in \web{} and translates them into C source +code. The core \TeX{} programs are: + +\begin{cmddescription} +\item[bibtex] Maintaining bibliographies. +\item[dmp] \cmdname{troff} to MPX (\MP{} pictures). +\item[dvicopy] Expands virtual font references in \dvi{} files. +\item[dvitomp] \dvi{} to MPX (MetaPost pictures). +\item[dvitype] \dvi{} to human-readable text. +\item[gftodvi] Generic font proofsheets. +\item[gftopk] Generic to packed fonts. +\item[gftype] GF to human-readable text. +\item[makempx] \MP{} label typesetting. +\item[mf] Creating typeface families. +\item[mft] Prettyprinting \MF{} source. +\item[mpost] Creating technical diagrams. +\item[mpto] MetaPost label extraction. +\item[newer] Compare modification times. +\item[patgen] Creating hyphenation patterns. +\item[pktogf] Packed to generic fonts. +\item[pktype] PK to human-readable text. +\item[pltotf] Plain text property list to TFM. +\item[pooltype] Display \web{} pool files. +\item[tangle] \web{} to Pascal. +\item[tex] Typesetting. +\item[tftopl] TFM to plain text property list. +\item[vftovp] Virtual font to virtual property list. +\item[vptovf] Virtual property list to virtual font. +\item[weave] \web{} to \TeX. +\end{cmddescription} + +\noindent The precise functions and syntax of these programs are +described in the documentation of the individual packages and of \Webc{} +itself. However, knowing a few principles governing the whole family of +programs will help you take advantage of your \Webc{} installation. + +All programs honor these standard \acro{GNU} options: +\begin{ttdescription} +\item[-{}-help] print basic usage summary. +\item[-{}-verbose] print detailed progress report. +\item[-{}-version] print version information, then exit. +\end{ttdescription} + +For locating files the \Webc{} programs use the path searching library +\KPS{}. This library uses a combination of environment variables and a +configuration files to optimize searching the (huge) collection of +\TeX{} files. \Webc{} can look at more than one directory tree +simultaneously, which is useful in maintaining \TeX's standard +distribution and local extensions in two distinct trees. To speed up +file searches the root of each tree has a file \file{ls-R}, containing +an entry showing the name and relative pathname for all files under that +root. + +\subsection{Kpathsea path searching} + +Let us first describe the generic path searching mechanism of the \KPS{} +library. + +We call a \emph{search path} a colon- or semicolon\hyph sepa\-rated list +of \emph{path elements}, which are basically directory names. A +search path can come from (a combination of) many sources. To look up +a file \samp{my-file} along a path \samp{.:/dir}, \KPS{} checks each +element of the path in turn: first \file{./my-file}, then +\file{/dir/my-file}, returning the first match (or possibly all +matches). + +In order to adapt optimally to all operating systems' conventions, on +non-Unix systems \KPS{} can use filename separators different from +colon (\samp{:}) and slash (\samp{/}). + +To check a particular path element \var{p}, \KPS{} first checks if a +prebuilt database (see ``Filename data\-base'' on +page~\pageref{Filename-database}) applies to \var{p}, i.e., if the database +is in a directory that is a prefix of \var{p}. If so, the path +specification is matched against the contents of the database. + +If the database does not exist, or does not apply to this path +element, or contains no matches, the filesystem is searched (if this +was not forbidden by a specification starting with \samp{!!}\ and if +the file being searched for must exist). \KPS{} constructs the list +of directories that correspond to this path element, and then checks +in each for the file being sought. + +The ``file must exist'' condition comes into play with \samp{.vf} files and +input files read by \TeX's \cs{openin} command. Such files may not +exist (e.g., \file{cmr10.vf}), and so it would be wrong to search the +disk for them. Therefore, if you fail to update \file{ls-R} when you +install a new \samp{.vf} file, it will never be found. +Each path element is checked in turn: first the database, then the +disk. If a match is found, the search stops and the result is +returned. + +Although the simplest and most common path element is a directory +name, \KPS{} supports additional features in search paths: layered +default values, environment variable names, config file values, users' +home directories, and recursive subdirectory searching. Thus, we say +that \KPS{} \emph{expands} a path element, meaning it transforms all +the specifications into basic directory name or names. This is +described in the following sections in the same order as it takes +place. + +Note that if the filename being searched for is absolute or explicitly +relative, i.e., starts with \samp{/} or \samp{./} or \samp{../}, +\KPS{} simply checks if that file exists. + +\ifSingleColumn +\else +\begin{figure*} +\verbatiminput{examples/ex5.tex} +\setlength{\abovecaptionskip}{0pt} + \caption{An illustrative configuration file sample} + \label{fig:config-sample} +\end{figure*} +\fi + +\subsubsection{Path sources} +\label{Path-sources} + +A search path can come from many sources. In the order in which +\KPS{} uses them: + +\begin{enumerate} +\item + A user-set environment variable, for instance, \envname{TEXINPUTS}\@. + Environment variables with a period and a program name appended + override; e.g., if \samp{latex} is the name of the program being run, + then \envname{TEXINPUTS.latex} will override \envname{TEXINPUTS}. +\item + A program-specific configuration file, for exam\-ple, a line + \samp{S /a:/b} in \cmdname{dvips}'s \file{config.ps}. +\item A \KPS{} configuration file \file{texmf.cnf}, containing a line like + \samp{TEXINPUTS=/c:/d} (see below). +\item The compile-time default. +\end{enumerate} +\noindent You can see each of these values for a given +search path by using the debugging options (see ``Debugging actions'' +on page~\pageref{Debugging}). + +\subsubsection{Config files} + +\begingroup\tolerance=3500 +\KPS{} reads \emph{runtime configuration files} named \file{texmf.cnf} +for search path and other definitions. The search path used to look +for these files is named \envname{TEXMFCNF} (by default such a file lives +in the \file{texmf/web2c} subdirectory). \emph{All} +\file{texmf.cnf} files in the search path will be read and definitions +in earlier files override those in later files. Thus, with a search +path of \verb|.:$TEXMF|, values from \file{./texmf.cnf} override those +from \verb|$TEXMF/texmf.cnf|. +\endgroup + +\begin{itemize} +\item + Comments start with \code{\%} and continue to the end of the line. +\item + Blank lines are ignored. +\item + A \bs{} at the end of a line acts as a continuation character, + i.e., the next line is appended. Whitespace at the beginning of + continuation lines is not ignored. +\item + Each remaining line has the form: +\begin{alltt} + \var{variable}[.\var{progname}] [=] \var{value} +\end{alltt}% + where the \samp{=} and surrounding whitespace are optional. +\item + The \ttvar{variable} name may contain any character other + than whitespace, \samp{=}, or \samp{.}, but sticking to + \samp{A-Za-z\_} is safest. +\item + If \samp{.\var{progname}} is present, the definition only + applies if the program that is running is named + \texttt{\var{progname}} or \texttt{\var{progname}.exe}. This allows + different flavors of \TeX{} to have different search paths, for + example. +\item \var{value} may contain any characters except + \code{\%} and \samp{@}. The + \code{\$\var{var}.\var{prog}} feature is not available on the + right-hand side; instead, you must use an additional variable. A + \samp{;}\ in \var{value} is translated to \samp{:}\ if + running under Unix; this is useful to be able to have a single + \file{texmf.cnf} for Unix, \acro{MS-DOS} and Windows systems. +\item + All definitions are read before anything is expanded, so + variables can be referenced before they are defined. +\end{itemize} +A configuration file fragment illustrating most of these points is +\ifSingleColumn +shown below: + +\verbatiminput{examples/ex5.tex} +\else +shown in Figure~\ref{fig:config-sample}. +\fi + +\subsubsection{Path expansion} +\label{Path-expansion} + + +\KPS{} recognizes certain special characters and constructions in +search paths, similar to those available in Unix shells. As a +general example, the complex path, +\verb+~$USER/{foo,bar}//baz+, expands to all subdirectories under +directories \file{foo} and \file{bar} in \texttt{\$USER}'s home +directory that contain a directory or file \file{baz}. These +expansions are explained in the sections below. +%$ +\subsubsection{Default expansion} +\label{Default-expansion} + +\tolerance=2500 +If the highest-priority search path (see ``Path sources'' on +page~\pageref{Path-sources}) contains an \emph{extra colon} (i.e., +leading, trailing, or doubled), \KPS{} inserts at that point the +next-highest-prio\-rity search path that is defined. If that inserted +path has an extra colon, the same happens with the next highest. For +example, given an environment variable setting + +\tolerance=1500 + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{setenv TEXINPUTS /home/karl:} +\end{alltt} +and a \code{TEXINPUTS} value from \file{texmf.cnf} of + +\begin{alltt} + .:\$TEXMF//tex +\end{alltt} +then the final value used for searching will be: + +\begin{alltt} + /home/karl:.:\$TEXMF//tex +\end{alltt} + +Since it would be useless to insert the default value in more than one +place, \KPS{} changes only one extra \samp{:}\ and leaves any others in +place. It checks first for a leading \samp{:}, then a trailing +\samp{:}, then a doubled \samp{:}. + +\subsubsection{Brace expansion} + +A useful feature is brace expansion, which means that, for instance, +\verb+v{a,b}w+ expands to \verb+vaw:vbw+. Nesting is allowed. +This is used to implement multiple \TeX{} hierarchies, by +assigning a brace list to \code{\$TEXMF}. +For example, in \file{texmf.cnf}, the following definition +(appproximately; there are actually even more trees) is made: +\begin{verbatim} + TEXMF = {$TEXMFHOME,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFVAR,!!$TEXMFMAIN} +\end{verbatim} +Using this you can then write something like +\begin{verbatim} + TEXINPUTS = .;$TEXMF/tex// +\end{verbatim} +%$ +which means that, after looking in the current directory, the +\code{\$TEXMFHOME/tex}, \code{\$TEXMFLOCAL/tex}, \code{\$TEXMFVAR/tex} +and \code{\$TEXMFMAIN/tex} trees \emph{only}) will be searched (the +last two use using \file{ls-R} data base files). It is a convenient +way for running two parallel \TeX{} structures, one ``frozen'' (on a +\CD, for instance) and the other being continuously updated with new +versions as they become available. By using the \code{\$TEXMF} +variable in all definitions, one is sure to always search the +up-to-date tree first. + +\subsubsection{Subdirectory expansion} +\label{Subdirectory-expansion} + +Two or more consecutive slashes in a path element following a directory +\var{d} is replaced by all subdirectories of \var{d}: first those +subdirectories directly under \var{d}, then the subsubdirectories under +those, and so on. At each level, the order in which the directories are +searched is \emph{unspecified}. + +If you specify any filename components after the \samp{//}, only +subdirectories with matching components are included. For example, +\samp{/a//b} expands into directories \file{/a/1/b}, \file{/a/2/b}, +\file{/a/1/1/b}, and so on, but not \file{/a/b/c} or \file{/a/1}. + +Multiple \samp{//} constructs in a path are possible, but +\samp{//} at the beginning of a path is ignored. + +\subsubsection{List of special characters and their meaning: a summary} + +The following list summarizes the special characters in \KPS{} +configuration files. + +% need a wider space for the item labels here. +\newcommand{\CODE}[1]{\makebox[3em][l]{\code{#1}}} +\begin{ttdescription} +\item[\CODE{:}] Separator in path specification; at the beginning or + the end of a path it substitutes the default path expansion.\par +\item[\CODE{;}] Separator on non-Unix systems (acts like \code{:}). +\item[\CODE{\$}] Variable expansion. +\item[\CODE{\string~}] Represents the user's home directory. +\item[\CODE{\char`\{...\char`\}}] Brace expansion. +\item[\CODE{//}] Subdirectory expansion (can occur anywhere in + a path, except at its beginning). +\item[\CODE{\%}] Start of comment. +\item[\CODE{\bs}] Continuation character (allows multi-line entries). +\item[\CODE{!!}] Search \emph{only} database to locate file, \emph{do + not} search the disk. +\end{ttdescription} + + +\subsection{Filename databases} +\label{Filename-database} + +\KPS{} goes to some lengths to minimize disk accesses for searches. +Nevertheless, at installations with enough directories, searching each +possible directory for a given file can take an excessively long time +(this is especially true if many hundreds of font directories have to +be traversed.) Therefore, \KPS{} can use an externally-built plain text +``database'' file named \file{ls-R} that maps files to directories, +thus avoiding the need to exhaustively search the disk. + +A second database file \file{aliases} allows you to give additional +names to the files listed in \file{ls-R}. This can be helpful to +confirm to \acro{DOS} 8.3 filename conventions in source files. + +\subsubsection{The filename database} +\label{ls-R} + +As explained above, the name of the main filename database must be +\file{ls-R}. You can put one at the root of each \TeX{} hierarchy in +your installation that you wish to be searched (\code{\$TEXMF} by +default); most sites have only one hierarchy. \KPS{} looks for +\file{ls-R} files along the \code{TEXMFDBS} path. + +The recommended way to create and maintain \samp{ls-R} is to run the +\code{mktexlsr} script included with the distribution. It is invoked +by the various \samp{mktex}\dots\ scripts. In principle, this script +just runs the command +\begin{alltt} +cd \var{/your/texmf/root} && \path|\|ls -1LAR ./ >ls-R +\end{alltt} +presuming your system's \code{ls} produces the right output format +(\acro{GNU} \code{ls} is all right). To ensure that the database is +always up-to-date, it is easiest to rebuild it regularly via +\code{cron}, so that it is automatically updated when the installed +files change, such as after installing or updating a \LaTeX{} package. + +If a file is not found in the database, by default \KPS{} goes ahead +and searches the disk. If a particular path element begins with +\samp{!!}, however, \emph{only} the database will be searched for that +element, never the disk. + + +\subsubsection{kpsewhich: Standalone path searching} +\label{Invoking-kpsewhich} + +The \texttt{kpsewhich} program exercises path searching independent of any +particular application. This can be useful as a sort of \code{find} +program to locate files in \TeX{} hierarchies (this is used heavily in +the distributed \samp{mktex}\dots\ scripts). + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich \var{option}\dots{} \var{filename}\dots{}} +\end{alltt} +The options specified in \ttvar{option} start with either \samp{-} +or \samp{-{}-}, and any unambiguous abbreviation is accepted. + +\KPS{} looks up each non-option argument on the command line as a +filename, and returns the first file found. There is no option to +return all the files with a particular name (you can run the Unix +\samp{find} utility for that). + +The more important options are described next. + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item[\texttt{-{}-dpi=\var{num}}]\mbox{} + Set the resolution to \ttvar{num}; this only affects \samp{gf} + and \samp{pk} lookups. \samp{-D} is a synonym, for compatibility + with \cmdname{dvips}. Default is 600. + +\item[\texttt{-{}-format=\var{name}}]\mbox{}\\ + Set the format for lookup to \ttvar{name}. By default, the + format is guessed from the filename. For formats which do not have + an associated unambiguous suffix, such as \MP{} support files and + \cmdname{dvips} configuration files, you have to specify the name as + known to \KPS{}, such as \texttt{tex} or \texttt{enc files}. Run + \texttt{kpsewhich -{}-help} for a list. + +\item[\texttt{-{}-mode=\var{string}}]\mbox{}\\ + Set the mode name to \ttvar{string}; this only affects \samp{gf} + and \samp{pk} lookups. No default: any mode will be found. +\item[\texttt{-{}-must-exist}]\mbox{}\\ + Do everything possible to find the files, notably including + searching the disk. By default, only the \file{ls-R} database is + checked, in the interest of efficiency. +\item[\texttt{-{}-path=\var{string}}]\mbox{}\\ + Search along the path \ttvar{string} (colon-separated as usual), + instead of guessing the search path from the filename. \samp{//} and + all the usual expansions are supported. The options \samp{-{}-path} + and \samp{-{}-format} are mutually exclusive. +\item[\texttt{-{}-progname=\var{name}}]\mbox{}\\ + Set the program name to \texttt{\var{name}}. + This can affect the search paths via the \texttt{.\var{progname}} + feature. + The default is \cmdname{kpsewhich}. +\item[\texttt{-{}-show-path=\var{name}}]\mbox{}\\ + shows the path used for file lookups of file type \texttt{\var{name}}. + Either a filename extension (\code{.pk}, \code{.vf}, etc.) or a + name can be used, just as with \samp{-{}-format} option. +\item[\texttt{-{}-debug=\var{num}}]\mbox{}\\ + sets the debugging options to \texttt{\var{num}}. +\end{ttdescription} + + +\subsubsection{Examples of use} +\label{SExamplesofuse} + +Let us now have a look at \KPS{} in action. Here's a straightforward search: + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich article.cls} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/article.cls +\end{alltt} +We are looking for the file \file{article.cls}. Since the \samp{.cls} +suffix is unambiguous we do not need to specify that we want to look for a +file of type \optname{tex} (\TeX{} source file directories). We find it in +the subdirectory \file{tex/latex/base} below the \samp{texmf-dist} \TL\ +directory. Similarly, all of the following are found without problems +thanks to their unambiguous suffix. +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich array.sty} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/tex/latex/tools/array.sty +> \Ucom{kpsewhich latin1.def} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/latin1.def +> \Ucom{kpsewhich size10.clo} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/size10.clo +> \Ucom{kpsewhich small2e.tex} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/small2e.tex +> \Ucom{kpsewhich tugboat.bib} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/bibtex/bib/beebe/tugboat.bib +\end{alltt} + +That last is a \BibTeX{} bibliography database for \textsl{TUGBoat} articles. + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich cmr10.pk} +\end{alltt} +Font bitmap glyph files of type \file{.pk} are used by display +programs like \cmdname{dvips} and \cmdname{xdvi}. Nothing is returned in +this case since there are no pre-generated Computer Modern \samp{.pk} +files in \TL{}\Dash the Type~1 variants are used by default. +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich wsuipa10.pk} +\ifSingleColumn /usr/local/texmf-var/fonts/pk/ljfour/public/wsuipa/wsuipa10.600pk +\else /usr/local/texmf-var/fonts/pk/ljfour/public/ +... wsuipa/wsuipa10.600pk +\fi\end{alltt} + +For these fonts (a phonetic alphabet from the University of Washington) +we had to generate \samp{.pk} files, and since the default \MF{} mode on +our installation is \texttt{ljfour} with a base resolution of 600\dpi{} +(dots per inch), this instantiation is returned. +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich -dpi=300 wsuipa10.pk} +\end{alltt} +In this case, when specifying that we are interested in a resolution +of 300\dpi{} (\texttt{-dpi=300}) we see that no such font is available on +the system. A program like \cmdname{dvips} or \cmdname{xdvi} would +go off and actually build the required \texttt{.pk} files +using the script \cmdname{mktexpk}. + +Next we turn our attention to \cmdname{dvips}'s header and configuration +files. We first look at one of the commonly used files, the general +prolog \file{tex.pro} for \TeX{} support, before turning our attention +to the generic configuration file (\file{config.ps}) and the \PS{} font +map \file{psfonts.map}\Dash as of 2004, map and encoding files have +their own search paths and new location in \dirname{texmf} trees. As +the \samp{.ps} suffix is ambiguous we have to specify explicitly which +type we are considering (\optname{dvips config}) for the file +\texttt{config.ps}. +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich tex.pro} + /usr/local/texmf/dvips/base/tex.pro +> \Ucom{kpsewhich --format="dvips config" config.ps} + /usr/local/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps +> \Ucom{kpsewhich psfonts.map} + /usr/local/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map +\end{alltt} + +We now take a closer look at the \acro{URW} Times \PS{} support +files. The prefix for these in the standard font naming scheme is +\samp{utm}. The first file we look at is the configuration file, +which contains the name of the map file: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich --format="dvips config" config.utm} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/dvips/psnfss/config.utm +\end{alltt} +The contents of that file is +\begin{alltt} + p +utm.map +\end{alltt} +which points to the file \file{utm.map}, which we want to +locate next. +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich utm.map} + /usr/local/texmf-dist/fonts/map/dvips/times/utm.map +\end{alltt} +This map file defines the file names of the Type~1 \PS{} fonts in +the URW collection. Its contents look like (we only show part of the +lines): +\begin{alltt} +utmb8r NimbusRomNo9L-Medi ... <utmb8a.pfb +utmbi8r NimbusRomNo9L-MediItal... <utmbi8a.pfb +utmr8r NimbusRomNo9L-Regu ... <utmr8a.pfb +utmri8r NimbusRomNo9L-ReguItal... <utmri8a.pfb +utmbo8r NimbusRomNo9L-Medi ... <utmb8a.pfb +utmro8r NimbusRomNo9L-Regu ... <utmr8a.pfb +\end{alltt} +Let us, for instance, take the Times Roman instance +\file{utmr8a.pfb} and find its position in the \file{texmf} directory +tree with a search for Type~1 font files: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{kpsewhich utmr8a.pfb} +\ifSingleColumn /usr/local/texmf-dist/fonts/type1/urw/times/utmr8a.pfb +\else /usr/local/texmf-dist/fonts/type1/ +... urw/utm/utmr8a.pfb +\fi\end{alltt} + +It should be evident from these examples how you can easily locate the +whereabouts of a given file. This is especially important if you suspect +that the wrong version of a file is picked up somehow, since +\cmdname{kpsewhich} will show you the first file encountered. + +\subsubsection{Debugging actions} +\label{Debugging} + +Sometimes it is necessary to investigate how a program resolves file +references. To make this practical, \KPS{} offers various levels of +debugging output: + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item[\texttt{\ 1}] \texttt{stat} calls (disk lookups). When running + with an up-to-date \file{ls-R} database this should almost give no + output. +\item[\texttt{\ 2}] References to hash tables (such as \file{ls-R} + databases, map files, configuration files). +\item[\texttt{\ 4}] File open and close operations. +\item[\texttt{\ 8}] General path information for file types + searched by \KPS. This is useful to find out where a particular + path for the file was defined. +\item[\texttt{16}] Directory list for each path element (only relevant + for searches on disk). +\item[\texttt{32}] File searches. +\end{ttdescription} +A value of \texttt{-1} will set all the above options; in practice, +this is usually the most convenient. + +Similarly, with the \cmdname{dvips} program, by setting a combination of +debug switches, one can follow in detail where files are being picked up +from. Alternatively, when a file is not found, the debug trace shows in +which directories the program looks for the given file, so that one can +get an indication what the problem~is. + +Generally speaking, as most programs call the \KPS{} library +internally, one can select a debug option by using the +\envname{KPATHSEA\_DEBUG} environment variable, and setting it to (a +combination of) values as described in the above list. + +(Note for Windows users: it is not easy to redirect +all messages to a file in this system. For diagnostic purposes +you can temporarily \texttt{SET KPATHSEA\_DEBUG\_OUTPUT=err.log}). + +Let us consider, as an example, a small \LaTeX{} source file, +\file{hello-world.tex}, which contains the following input. +\begin{verbatim} + \documentclass{article} + \begin{document} + Hello World! + \end{document} +\end{verbatim} +This little file only uses the font \file{cmr10}, so let us look at +how \cmdname{dvips} prepares the \PS{} file (we want to use the Type~1 +version of the Computer Modern fonts, hence the option \texttt{-Pcms}). +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{dvips -d4100 hello-world -Pcms -o} +\end{alltt} +In this case we have combined \cmdname{dvips}'s debug class 4 (font +paths) with \KPS's path element expansion (see \cmdname{dvips} Reference +Manual, \OnCD{texmf/doc/html/dvips/dvips_toc.html}). +The output (slightly rearranged) appears in +Figure~\ref{fig:dvipsdbga}. +\begin{figure*}[tp] +\centering +\input{examples/ex6a.tex} +\caption{Finding configuration files}\label{fig:dvipsdbga} + +\bigskip + +\input{examples/ex6b.tex} +\caption{Finding the prolog file}\label{fig:dvipsdbgb} + +\bigskip + +\input{examples/ex6c.tex} +\caption{Finding the font file}\label{fig:dvipsdbgc} +\end{figure*} + +\cmdname{dvips} starts by locating its working files. First, +\file{texmf.cnf} is found, which gives the definitions of the search +paths for the other files, then the file database \file{ls-R} (to +optimize file searching) and the file \file{aliases}, which makes it +possible to declare several names (e.g., a short \acro{DOS}-like 8.3 and +a more natural longer version) for the same file. Then \cmdname{dvips} +goes on to find the generic configuration file \file{config.ps} +before looking for the customization file \file{.dvipsrc} (which, in +this case is \emph{not found}). Finally, \cmdname{dvips} locates the +config file for the Computer Modern \PS{} fonts \file{config.cms} +(this was initiated with the \texttt{-Pcms} option on the \cmdname{dvips} +command). This file contains the list of the map files which +define the relation between the \TeX{}, \PS{} and file system +names of the fonts. +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{more /usr/local/texmf/dvips/cms/config.cms} + p +ams.map + p +cms.map + p +cmbkm.map + p +amsbkm.map +\end{alltt} +\cmdname{dvips} thus goes on to find all these files, plus the generic +map file \file{psfonts.map}, which is always loaded (it contains +declarations for commonly used \PS{} fonts; see the last part of +Section \ref{SExamplesofuse} for more details about \PS{} map +file handling). + +At this point \cmdname{dvips} identifies itself to the user: +\begin{alltt} +This is dvips(k) 5.92b Copyright 2002 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com) +\end{alltt} +\ifSingleColumn +Then it goes on to look for the prolog file \file{texc.pro}: +\begin{alltt}\small +kdebug:start search(file=texc.pro, must\_exist=0, find\_all=0, + path=.:~/tex/dvips//:!!/usr/local/texmf/dvips//: + ~/tex/fonts/type1//:!!/usr/local/texmf/fonts/type1//). +kdebug:search(texc.pro) => /usr/local/texmf/dvips/base/texc.pro +\end{alltt} +\else +Then it goes on to look for the prolog file \file{texc.pro} (see +Figure~\ref{fig:dvipsdbgb}). +\fi + +After having found the file in question, \cmdname{dvips} outputs +date and time, and informs us that it will generate the +file \file{hello-world.ps}, then that it needs the font file +\file{cmr10}, and that the latter is declared as ``resident'' (no +bitmaps needed): +\begin{alltt}\small +TeX output 1998.02.26:1204' -> hello-world.ps +Defining font () cmr10 at 10.0pt +Font cmr10 <CMR10> is resident. +\end{alltt} +Now the search is on for the file \file{cmr10.tfm}, which is found, +then a few more prolog files (not shown) are referenced, and finally +the Type~1 instance \file{cmr10.pfb} of the font is located and +included in the output file (see last line). +\begin{alltt}\small +kdebug:start search(file=cmr10.tfm, must\_exist=1, find\_all=0, + path=.:~/tex/fonts/tfm//:!!/usr/local/texmf/fonts/tfm//: + /var/tex/fonts/tfm//). +kdebug:search(cmr10.tfm) => /usr/local/texmf/fonts/tfm/public/cm/cmr10.tfm +kdebug:start search(file=texps.pro, must\_exist=0, find\_all=0, + ... +<texps.pro> +kdebug:start search(file=cmr10.pfb, must\_exist=0, find\_all=0, + path=.:~/tex/dvips//:!!/usr/local/texmf/dvips//: + ~/tex/fonts/type1//:!!/usr/local/texmf/fonts/type1//). +kdebug:search(cmr10.pfb) => /usr/local/texmf/fonts/type1/public/cm/cmr10.pfb +<cmr10.pfb>[1] +\end{alltt} + +\subsection{Runtime options} + +Another useful feature of \Webc{} is its possibility to control a number +of memory parameters (in particular, array sizes) via the runtime file +\file{texmf.cnf} read by \KPS{}.

The more important +are: + +\begin{ttdescription} +\item[\texttt{main\_memory}] + Total words of memory available, for + \TeX{}, \MF{} and \MP. You must make a new format file for each + different setting. For instance, you could generate a ``huge'' + version of \TeX{}, and call the format file \texttt{hugetex.fmt}. + Using the standard way of specifying the program name used by \KPS{}, + the particular value of the \texttt{main\_memory} variable will then + be read from \file{texmf.cnf}. +\item[\texttt{extra\_mem\_bot}] + Extra space for ``large'' \TeX{} data structures: + boxes, glue, breakpoints, etc. Especially useful if you use + \PiCTeX{}. +\item[\texttt{font\_mem\_size}] + Number of words for font information available for \TeX. This + is more or less the total size of all TFM files read. +\item[\texttt{hash\_extra}] + Additional space for the hash table of control sequence names. + Approximately 10,000 control sequences can be stored in the main + hash table; if you have a large book with numerous cross-references, + this might not be enough. The default value of + \texttt{hash\_extra} is \texttt{50000}. +\end{ttdescription} + +\noindent Of course, this facility is no substitute for truly dynamic +arrays and memory allocation, but since these are extremely difficult to +implement in the present \TeX{} source, these runtime parameters provide +a practical compromise allowing some flexibility. + + +\begin{comment} +\section{Building on a new Unix platform} + +If you have a platform for which executables are not included, you will +need to compile \TeX{} and friends. This is not as hard as it +sounds. What you need is all in the directory \texttt{source} in the +distribution. + +\subsection{Prerequisites} + +You will need at least 100 megabytes of disk space to compile all of +\TeX{} and its support programs. You'll also need an \acro{ANSI} C +compiler, a \cmdname{make} utility, a lexical scanner, and a parser +generator. We recommend the \acro{GNU} version of these programs +(\cmdname{gcc}, \acro{GNU} \cmdname{make}, \cmdname{m4}, \cmdname{flex}, +\cmdname{bison}). You may be able to work with other C compilers and +\cmdname{make} programs, but you will need a good understanding of +building Unix programs to sort out problems. + +Also, the command \texttt{uname} must return a sensible value. + + +\subsection{Configuration} + +To begin, perform a normal installation of \TL{} to your disk (see +section~\ref{sec:unix-install-disk} on +\p.\pageref{sec:unix-install-disk}). You may wish to skip installing +all of the prebuilt binaries. + +Then, unpack the source from the compressed \texttt{tar} file in the +directory \dirname{source} to your disk and change directory to where +you placed it. + +Next, run \cmdname{configure} with a command line like this: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{sh configure -prefix=/usr/local/TeX} +\end{alltt} + +The \optname{-prefix} directory is the one where you installed the +support tree; the directory layout will be as follows (where \$TEXDIR +stands for the directory you chose): + +\noindent +\begin{tabular}{>{\ttfamily}ll@{}} + \dirname{$TEXDIR/share/texmf} & main tree with fonts,\\ + & \qquad macros, etc\\ + \dirname{$TEXDIR/man} & Unix manual pages\\ + \dirname{$TEXDIR/info} & \acro{GNU} style Info manuals\\ + \dirname{$TEXDIR/bin/$PLATFORM} & binaries\\ +\end{tabular} +%$ + +If you want to leave out the \dirname{$PLATFORM} directory level, +i.e., put the binaries directly into \dirname{$TEXDIR/bin}, specify +the \verb|--disable-multiplatform| option to \cmdname{configure}. + +Have a look at the output of \verb|./configure --help| for more +options you can use. For example, you can skip building of \OMEGA{} and +\eTeX{}. + + +\subsection{Running \cmdname{make}} + +Make sure the shell variable or option \texttt{noclobber} is not set. +Then, run the main \cmdname{make} like this: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{make world} +\end{alltt} +and relax\ldots + +Alternatively, you want to log all the output, as in: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{sh -c "make world >world.log 2>\&1" \&} +\end{alltt} + +Before you believe that everything went ok, please check the log file +for errors: \acro{GNU} \cmdname{make} always uses the string \samp{***} +whenever a command fails. Also, check if all the programs were built: + +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{cd \var{TEXDIR}/bin/\var{archname}} +> \Ucom{ls | wc} +\end{alltt} +The result should be over 200 (you can check the exact number with the +\dirname{bin} directory contents in the distribution). + +If you need special privileges for \texttt{make install}, you can +separate the \samp{make world} into two different runs, like this: +\begin{alltt} +> \Ucom{make all} +> \Ucom{su} +> \Ucom{make install strip} +\end{alltt} + +After you've installed your new binaries, you should follow the normal +post-installation procedures, given in section~\ref{sec:postinstall} +(\p.\pageref{sec:postinstall}). + +Also, if you'd like to make your binaries available to others, please +contact us. We'll be happy to put them on the \TL\ web pages. +\end{comment} + +\section{Acknowledgements} + +\TL{} is a joint effort by virtually all of the \TeX{} user groups. +This edition of \TL{} was overseen by Sebastian Rahtz and Karl Berry. +The other principal contributors are listed below. + +\begin{itemize*} + +\item The English, German, Dutch, and Polish \TeX{} user groups +(\acro{TUG}, \acro{DANTE} e.V., \acro{NTG}, and \acro{GUST}, +respectively), which together provide the necessary technical +and administrative infrastructure.

This was too ambitious a target for the time, but it did spawn +not only the very successful 4All\TeX{} \CD{}, but also the \acro{TUG} +Technical Council working group on a \emph{\TeX{} Directory Structure} +(\url{http://tug.org/tds}), which specified how to create consistent and +manageable collections of \TeX{} support files. A complete draft of the +\TDS{} was published in the December 1995 issue of \textsl{TUGboat}, and +it was clear from an early stage that one desirable product would be a +model structure on \CD{}. The distribution you now have is a very direct +result of the working group's deliberations. It was also clear that the +success of the 4All\TeX{} \CD{} showed that Unix users would benefit +from a similarly easy system, and this is the other main strand of +\TL. + +We first undertook to make a new Unix-based \TDS{} \CD{} in the autumn +of 1995, and quickly identified Thomas Esser's \teTeX{} as the ideal +setup, as it already had multi-platform support and was built with +portability across file systems in mind. Thomas agreed to help, and work +began seriously at the start of 1996. The first edition was released in +May 1996. At the start of 1997, Karl Berry completed a major new release +of Web2c, which included nearly all the features which Thomas Esser had +added in \teTeX, and we decided to base the 2nd edition of the \CD{} on +the standard \Webc, with the addition of \teTeX's \texttt{texconfig} +script. The 3rd edition of the \CD{} was based on a major revision of +\Webc, 7.2, by Olaf Weber; at the same time, a new revision of \teTeX +was being made, and \TL{} included almost all of its features. The +4th edition followed the same pattern, using a new version of \teTeX, +and a new release of \Webc{} (7.3). The system now included a complete +Windows setup. + +For the 5th edition (March 2000) many parts of the \CD{} were revised +and checked, updating hundreds of packages. Package details were stored +in XML files. But the major change for \TeX\ Live 5 was that all +non-free software was removed. Everything in \TL{} is now intended +to be compatible with the Debian Free Software Guidelines +(\url{http://www.debian.org/intro/free}); we have done our best to check +the license conditions of all packages, but we would very much +appreciate hearing of any mistakes. + +The 6th edition (July 2001) had much more material updated. The major +change was a new install concept: the user could select a more exact set +of needed collections. Language-related collections were completely +reorganized, so selecting any of them installs not only macros, fonts, +etc., but also prepares an appropriate \texttt{language.dat}. + +The 7th edition of 2002 had the notable addition of \MacOSX{} support, +and the usual myriad of updates to all sorts of packages and +programs. An important goal was integration of the source back with +\teTeX, to correct the drift apart in versions~5 and~6. + +\subsubsection{2003} + +In 2003, with the continuing flood of updates and additions, we found +that \TL{} had grown so large it could no longer be contained on a +single \CD, so we split it into three different distributions (see +section~\ref{sec:multiple-dist}, \p.\pageref{sec:multiple-dist}). In +addition: + +\begin{itemize*} +\item At the request of the \LaTeX{} team, we changed the standard + \cmdname{latex} and \cmdname{pdflatex} commands to now use \eTeX{} (see + \p.\pageref{text:etex}). +\item The new Latin Modern fonts were included (and are recommended). +\item Support for Alpha \acro{OSF} was removed + (\acro{HPUX} support was removed previously), since no one had (or + volunteered) hardware available on which to compile new binaries. +\item Windows setup was substantially changed; for the first time + an integrated environment based on XEmacs was introduced. +\item Important supplementary programs for Windows + (Perl, Ghost\-script, Image\-Magick, Ispell) are now installed + in the \TL{} installation directory. +\item Font map files used by \cmdname{dvips}, \cmdname{dvipdfm} + and \cmdname{pdftex} are now generated by the new program + \cmdname{updmap} and installed into \dirname{texmf/fonts/map}. +\item \TeX{}, \MF{}, and \MP{} now, by default, output most input + characters (32 and above) as themselves in output (e.g., + \verb|\write|) files, + log files, and the terminal, i.e., \emph{not} translated using the + \verb|^^| notation. In \TL{}~7, this translation was + dependent on the system locale settings; now, locale settings do + not influence the \TeX{} programs' behavior. If for some reason + you need the \verb|^^| output, rename the file + \verb|texmf/web2c/cp8bit.tcx|. (Future releases will have cleaner + ways to control this.) +\item This documentation was substantially revised. +\item Finally, since the edition numbers had grown unwieldy, + the version is now simply identified by the year: \TL{} 2003. +\end{itemize*} + + +\subsubsection{2004} + +2004 saw many changes: + +\begin{itemize} + +\item If you have locally-installed fonts which use their own +\filename{.map} or (much less likely) \filename{.enc} support files, you +may need to move those support files. + +\filename{.map} files are now searched for in subdirectories of +\dirname{fonts/map} only (in each \filename{texmf} tree), along the +\envname{TEXFONTMAPS} path. Similarly, \filename{.enc} files are now +searched for in subdirectories of \dirname{fonts/enc} only, along the +\envname{ENCFONTS} path. \cmdname{updmap} will attempt to warn about +problematic files. + +For methods of handling this and other information, please see +\url{http://tug.org/texlive/mapenc.html}. + +\item The \TK\ has been expanded with the addition of a \MIKTEX-based +installable \CD, for those who prefer that implementation to Web2C. +See section~\ref{sec:struct-tl} (\p.\pageref{sec:struct-tl}). + +\item Within \TL, the single large \dirname{texmf} tree of previous +releases has been replaced by three: \dirname{texmf}, +\dirname{texmf-dist}, and \dirname{texmf-doc}. See +section~\ref{sec:tld} (\p.\pageref{sec:tld}), and the \filename{README} +files for each. + +\item All \TeX-related input files are now collected in +the \dirname{tex} subdirectory of \dirname{texmf*} trees, rather than +having separate sibling directories \dirname{tex}, \dirname{etex}, +\dirname{pdftex}, \dirname{pdfetex}, etc. See +\CDref{texmf-doc/doc/english/tds/tds.html\#Extensions} +{\texttt{texmf-doc/doc/english/tds/tds.html\#Extensions}}. + +\item Helper scripts (not meant to be invoked by users) are now located +in a new \dirname{scripts} directory of \dirname{texmf*} trees, and +searched for via \verb|kpsewhich -format=texmfscripts|. So if you have +programs which call such scripts, they'll need to be adjusted. See +\CDref{texmf-doc/doc/english/tds/tds.html\#Scripts} +{\texttt{texmf-doc/doc/english/tds/tds.html\#Scripts}}. + +\item Almost all formats leave most characters printable as +themselves via the ``translation file'' \filename{cp227.tcx}, instead of +translating them with the \verb|^^| notation. Specifically, characters +at positions 32--256, plus tab, vertical tab, and form feed are +considered printable and not translated. The exceptions are plain \TeX\ +(only 32--126 printable), \ConTeXt\ (0--255 printable), and the +\OMEGA-related formats. This default behavior is almost the same as in +\TL\,2003, but it's implemented more cleanly, with more possibilities +for customization. See \CDref{texmf/doc/web2c/web2c.html\#TCX-files} +{\texttt{texmf/doc/web2c/web2c.html\#TCX-files}}. +(By the way, with Unicode input, \TeX\ may output partial character +sequences when showing error contexts, since it is byte-oriented.) + +\item \textsf{pdfetex} is now the default engine for all formats +except (plain) \textsf{tex} itself. (Of course it generates \acro{DVI} +when run as \textsf{latex}, etc.) This means, among other things, that +the microtypographic features of \textsf{pdftex} are available in +\LaTeX, \ConTeXt, etc., as well as the \eTeX\ features +(\OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/etex/base/}). + +It also means it's \emph{more important than ever} to use the +\pkgname{ifpdf} package (works with both plain and \LaTeX) or equivalent +code, because simply testing whether \cs{pdfoutput} or some other +primitive is defined is not a reliable way to determine if \acro{PDF} +output is being generated. We made this backward compatible as best we +could this year, but next year, \cs{pdfoutput} may be defined even when +\acro{DVI} is being written. + +\item pdf\TeX\ (\url{http://pdftex.org}) has many new features: + + \begin{itemize*} + + \item \cs{pdfmapfile} and \cs{pdfmapline} provide font map support + from within a document. + + \item Microtypographic font expansion can be used more easily.\\ + \url{http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2004-May/000504.html} + + \item All parameters previously set through the special configuration + file \filename{pdftex.cfg} must now be set through primitives, + typically in \filename{pdftexconfig.tex}; \filename{pdftex.cfg} is no + longer supported. Any extant \filename{.fmt} files must be redumped + when \filename{pdftexconfig.tex} is changed. + + \item See the pdf\TeX\ manual for more: \OnCD{texmf/doc/pdftex/manual}. + + \end{itemize*} + +\item The \cs{input} primitive in \cmdname{tex} (and \cmdname{mf} and +\cmdname{mpost}) now accepts double quotes containing spaces and other +special characters. Typical examples: +\begin{verbatim} +\input "filename with spaces" % plain +\input{"filename with spaces"} % latex +\end{verbatim} +See the Web2C manual for more: \OnCD{texmf/doc/web2c}. + +\item enc\TeX\ support is now included within Web2C and consequently all +\TeX\ programs, via the \optname{-enc} option\Dash \emph{only when +formats are built}. enc\TeX\ supports general re-encoding of input and +output, enabling full support of Unicode (in \acro{UTF}-8). See +\OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/generic/enctex/} and +\url{http://www.olsak.net/enctex.html}. + +\item Aleph, a new engine combining \eTeX\ and \OMEGA, is available. +A little information is available in \OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/aleph/base} +and \url{http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=aleph}. The +\LaTeX-based format for Aleph is named \textsf{lamed}. + +\item The latest \LaTeX\ release has a new version of the +\acro{LPPL}\Dash now officially a Debian-approved license. Assorted +other updates, see the \filename{ltnews} files in +\OnCD{texmf-dist/doc/latex/base}. + +\item \cmdname{dvipng}, a new program for converting \acro{DVI} to +\acro{PNG} image files, is included. See \OnCD{texmf/doc/man/man1/dvipng.1}. + +\item We reduced the \pkgname{cbgreek} package to a ``medium'' sized set +of fonts, with the assent and advice of the author (Claudio Beccari). +The excised fonts are the invisible, outline, and transparency ones, +which are relatively rarely used, and we needed the space. The full set +is of course available from \acro{CTAN} +(\url{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/greek/cb}). + +\item \cmdname{oxdvi} has been removed; just use \cmdname{xdvi}. + +\item The \cmdname{ini} and \cmdname{vir} commands (links) for +\cmdname{tex}, \cmdname{mf}, and \cmdname{mpost} are no longer created, +such as \cmdname{initex}. The \cmdname{ini} functionality has been +available through the command-line option \optname{-ini} for years now. + +\item \textsf{i386-openbsd} platform support was removed. Since the +\pkgname{tetex} package in the \acro{BSD} Ports system is available, and +\acro{GNU/}Linux and Free\acro{BSD} binaries were available, it seemed +volunteer time could be better spent elsewhere. + +\item On \textsf{sparc-solaris} (at least), you may have to set the +\envname{LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH} environment variable to run the +\pkgname{t1utils} programs. This is because they are compiled with C++, +and there is no standard location for the runtime libraries. (This is +not new in 2004, but wasn't previously documented.) Similarly, on +\textsf{mips-irix}, the \acro{MIPS}pro 7.4 runtimes are required. + +\end{itemize} + +\subsubsection{2005} + +2005 saw the usual huge number of updates to packages and programs. +The infrastructure stayed relatively stable from 2004, but inevitably +there were some changes there as well: + +\begin{itemize} + +\item New scripts \cmdname{texconfig-sys}, \cmdname{updmap-sys}, and + \cmdname{fmtutil-sys} were introduced, which modify the + configuration in the system trees. The \cmdname{texconfig}, + \cmdname{updmap}, and \cmdname{fmtutil} scripts now modify + user-specific files, under \dirname{$HOME/.texlive2005}. + See section~\ref{sec:texconfig}, \p.\pageref{sec:texconfig}. + +\item Corresponding new variables \envname{TEXMFCONFIG} and + \envname{TEXMFSYSCONFIG} to specify the trees where configuration + files (user or system, respectively) are found. Thus, you may + need to move personal versions of \filename{fmtutil.cnf} and + \filename{updmap.cfg} to these places; another option is to + redefine \envname{TEXMFCONFIG} or \envname{TEXMFSYSCONFIG} in + \filename{texmf.cnf}. In any case the real location of these files + and the values of \envname{TEXMFCONFIG} and \envname{TEXMFSYSCONFIG} + must agree. + See section~\ref{sec:texmftrees}, \p.\pageref{sec:texmftrees}. + +\item Last year, we kept \verb|\pdfoutput| and other primitives undefined + for DVI output, even though the \cmdname{pdfetex} program was + being used. This year, as promised, we undid that compatibility + measure. So if your document uses \verb|\ifx\pdfoutput\undefined| + to test if PDF is being output, it will need to be changed. You + can use the package \pkgname{ifpdf.sty} (which works under both + plain \TeX\ and \LaTeX) to do this, or steal its logic. + +\item Last year, we changed most formats to output (8-bit) characters as + themselves (see previous section). The new TCX file + \filename{empty.tcx} now provides an easier way to get the + original \verb|^^| notation if you so desire, as in: +\begin{verbatim} +latex --translate-file=empty.tcx yourfile.tex +\end{verbatim} + +\item The new program \cmdname{dvipdfmx} is included for translation of + DVI to PDF; this is an actively maintained update of + \cmdname{dvipdfm} (which is also still available for now, though + no longer recommended). + +\item The new programs \cmdname{pdfopen} and \cmdname{pdfclose} are included + to allow reloading of pdf files in the Adobe Acrobat Reader without + restarting the program. (Other pdf readers, notably \cmdname{xpdf}, + \cmdname{gv}, and \cmdname{gsview}, have never suffered from this + problem.) + +\item For consistency, the variables \envname{HOMETEXMF} and + \envname{VARTEXMF} have been renamed to \envname{TEXMFHOME} and + \envname{TEXMFSYSVAR}, respectively. There is also + \envname{TEXMFVAR}, which is by default user-specific. See the + first point above. + +\end{itemize} + + +\subsection{Present} +\label{tlcurrent} + +In 2006--2007, the major new addition to \TL{} was the Xe\TeX{} program, +available as the \texttt{xetex} and \texttt{xelatex} programs; see +\url{http://scripts.sil.org/xetex}. + +MetaPost also received a notable update, with more planned for the +future (\url{http://tug.org/metapost/articles}), likewise pdf\TeX{} +(\url{http://tug.org/applications/pdftex}) + +The \TeX\ \filename{.fmt} (high-speed format) and the similar files for +MetaPost and \MF\ are now stored in subdirectories of \dirname{texmf/web2c}, +instead of in the directory itself (although the directory is still +searched, for the sake of existing \filename{.fmt}'s). The +subdirectories are named for the `engine' in use, such as \filename{tex} +or \filename{pdftex} or \filename{xetex}. This change should be +invisible in normal use. + +The (plain) \texttt{tex} program no longer reads \texttt{\%\&} first +lines to determine what format to run; it is the pure Knuthian \TeX. +(\LaTeX\ and everything else do still read \texttt{\%\&} lines). + +The installation scripts now accept various environment variables to +allow for non-interactive installation; see +section~\ref{sec:noninteractive-install}. + +Of course the year also saw (the usual) hundreds of other updates to +packages and programs. As usual, please check \acro{CTAN} +(\url{http://www.ctan.org}) for updates. + +Internally, the source tree is now stored in Subversion, with a standard +web interface for viewing the tree, as linked from our home page. +Although not visible in the final distribution, we expect this will +provide a stable development foundation for future years. + +Finally, in May 2006 Thomas Esser announced that he would no longer be +updating te\TeX{} (\url{http://tug.org/tetex}). As a result, there was +been a surge of interest in \TL{}, especially among \acro{GNU}/Linux +distributors. (There is a new \texttt{tetex} installation scheme in +\TL{}, which provides an approximate equivalent.) We hope this will +eventually translate to improvements in the \TeX\ environment for +everyone. + + +\subsection{Future} + +\emph{\TL{} is not perfect!} (And never will be.) We intend to +continue to release new versions, and would like to provide more +help material, more utilities, more installation programs, and (of +course) an ever-improved and checked tree of macros and fonts.
