If you dare (I wouldn't): make install -3b. If you don't: - cp texk/xdvik/xdvi.bin libs/t1lib/type1afm/type1afm /path/for/bin -4. cp texk/xdvik/texmf/* /usr/local/texmf/share/lib/xdvi - That might not be the right path for you though ( - /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/xdvi is another likely path). - See point 5. - PLEASE NOTE that these enc files are different from the ones used - by dvips so they should not be in dvips' way. Please review xdvi.cfg - to see what font maps are appropriate for you. Update the texk - file database (teTeX users run 'texhash'). -5. Ensure that you have a XDVIINPUTS variable in your texmf.cnf or - environment which names the directory you installed the above files - in so xdvi can find them. -6. Read XDVIFONTS to install type1 fonts for xdvi. Probably not needed - in a recent teTeX installation. - -Here is the normal INSTALL file: -------------- - -Installing xdvik is essentially the same as installing any other -Kpathsea-using program. Therefore, for the basic steps involved, the -file `kpathsea/INSTALL'. - -For common problems and information on how to report a bug, see -`kpathsea/BUGS'. - -xdvi-specific items and a terse summary of the steps: - -0.1. If you want the hypertext support (recognition of url specials and -clicking on links), install the W3C reference library and header files -if necessary: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Library/w3c-libwww.tar.gz. The -.h files must be visible to the compiler, so you may have to set the -environment variable CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/wwwherever. (You may -also be interested in the Java previewer IDVI, available at -@url{http://www.win.tue.nl/~dickie/idvi}.) - -0.2. If you have Aladdin Ghostscript 4.0 or 4.01, get 4.02. Otherwise, -xdvi will not be able to run gs to show included eps files. (You can -fix this bug by adding a line - .clearerror -before the `% Close up systemdict.' comment.) - -1. Run `configure' (in the top-level directory, the one with -subdirectories `kpathsea' and `xdvi'). This guesses system -dependencies. configure --help lists all available options. See -../kpathsea/CONFIGURE for options to the configure script; also run -configure --help. - -By default, Ghostscript is used to render PostScript specials. -To disable this, specify `--without-ps' to configure. -To use Display PostScript instead of gs, specify `--with-ps=dps'. -To use NeWS instead of gs, specify `--with-ps=news'. -(Naturally you must have the dps and news libraries for these to work!) -You can specify more than one --with-ps option if desired; then Ghostscript - is used last. - -To use only Xlib routines, specify `--with-x-toolkit=no' to configure. -Functionality is necessarily reduced. If you are using an HP, IBM, or -other system that does not include the Xaw library by default, consider -installing the freely available X11 distribution, available from -ftp://ftp.x.org and mirrors. - -2. If necessary, change the default paths or other definitions. -See kpathsea/INSTALL for details. - -Things you might want to add to the DEFS or CFLAGS or XCFLAGS Make variables: --DA4 to get A4 size windows by default. --DALTFONT=\"myfont\" to change the fallback font from cmr10. --DBDPI=num to change default resolution to num from 600. --DMFMODE=\"mode\" to set the default mode. --DSHRINK=\"num\" to change the default shrink factor (yes, a string) from 6. --DNOBUTTONS to disable radio buttons for common commands. --DNOGREY to disable using grayscale to display shrunken bitmaps - (which also works on monochrome monitors). --DNOQUERY if you have trouble compiling drawingWidgetClass? --DNOSELFILE to disable SelFile widget support. --DNOTEXXET to disable DVI opcodes 250 and 251. - -The following can be set according to what xdvi's CONTROL-P command -reports for `bitord' and `Unit' for your most common display: - bitord = 1 => -DMSBITFIRST - Unit = 32 => -DBMLONG - Unit = 16 => -DBMSHORT -If this makes any substantial performance difference in your -environment, please let me know. - -3. `make'. - -4. `make install' (by default, files will be installed under /usr/local). -(Or `make install-exec', to install just the executables, -or `make install-data', to install just the architecture-independent files.) - -5. `make distclean' (or `mostlyclean', or `clean', or `realclean', -depending on how clean you want to be). - -If you wish to preview documents using PostScript fonts, you may find -ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/psfonts.tar.gz (Ghostscript-generated bitmaps for -the standard 35 PS fonts at multiples of 600dpi) useful. The gsftopk -program that comes with xdvik can generate such bitmaps on the fly; the -distributed MakeTeXPK attempts to do this. - -If problems: - -* See kpathsea/INSTALL for common system-dependent problems. - -* If you run out of file descriptors (``Too many open files''), -typically when MakeTeXPK is invoked, you may need to recompile the -kernel on your system (e.g., SunOS). Alternatively, the ulimit command -might allow you to increase this limit (e.g., Solaris). xdvi tries to -close files as necessary to avoid this, but if you use lots of fonts on -one page, it's unavoidable. - -* SCO: download libXaw from sosco.sco.com:/TLS/tls005.tar.Z. ---lieder@skyler.mavd.honeywell.com - -* Tadpole Sparcbook: Comes with obsolete X11 libraries in - /usr/openwin/lib.
