The quotes are needed to protect -the ampersand from Unix shell interpretation. -.PP -Because this need occurs frequently, Unix -.B virtex -provides a convenient shorthand. If it is invoked -under a name other than -.BR virtex , -such as -.BR footex , -it will behave as if it had been invoked as -.I "virtex '&footex'" -and first load a file named -.IR footex.fmt . -Thus, -.BR amslatex , -.BR amstex , -.BR lamstex , -.BR latex , -.BR slitex , -.BR tex , -.BR texinfo , -and others can all be file system links to -.BR virtex , -without requiring additional disk space. -.\"===================================================================== -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR initex (1), -.BR tex (1). |
