-.TH texconfig 1 "July 2014" "TeX Live" "TeX Live"
-.SH NAME
-texconfig \- configures teTeX or TeX Live
-.LP
-texconfig-sys \- configures teTeX or TeX Live system\-wide
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B texconfig
-.LP
-.B texconfig
-[\fB commands\fR ...]
-.LP
-.B texconfig-sys
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I texconfig
-allows one to configure and maintain TeX in an easy and convenient
-manner, offering a series of dialog boxes to the user. The directory in
-which \fItexconfig\fP is found is also preferentially used to find
-subprograms.
-.PP
-The
-.I tlmgr
-program has subsumed this function for TeX Live. This program
-is still supported, but the tlmgr interface is much more actively
-developed and tested.
-.PP
-After choosing settings or options, the appropriate files
-are changed automatically and the new settings are applied for the
-user. If needed, copies of files in
-.I TEXMFDIST
-or
-.I TEXMFMAIN
-will be made in the user's
-.I TEXMFCONFIG
-tree.
-.PP
-.I texconfig
-uses either the
-.IR whiptail (1)
-or
-.IR dialog (1)
-program to communicate with the user, so must be run in a terminal.
-.PP
-For making system-wide changes, which will apply to all users of TeX
-(for example, default paper size and so on), run
-.I texconfig-sys
-instead. Changed or generated files will be placed in
-.IR TEXMFSYSCONFIG .
-(You may need to be root to do this.)
-.PP
-.I texconfig
-also offers a non-interactive batch mode which can be accessed with
-the following commands
