Also available as `http://www.tug.org/unixtex.ftp'. The IP -address is currently `[130.225.2.178]'. It is also in Kpathsea source -distributions as `etc/unixtex.ftp' (although the network version is -usually newer). Mail <tex-k@mail.tug.org> with comments or questions. - - Following are general instructions for Unix or other sites who wish to -acquire the Web2c distribution, (plain) TeX, LaTeX (2e), BibTeX, -Metafont, MetaPost, DVI processors for the X window system, PostScript, -the PCL language in the HP LaserJet, and related programs. They are -oriented towards building from the original sources, though some -information on alternative packages is included in the last section. -See also `http://www.tug.org/web2c/', the Web2c and Kpathsea home page. - - Please note that the Web2c distribution is a bare-bones distribution -in source form, and building a complete installation from it is a -non-trivial matter. For most uses, it is a better idea to install a -distribution with pre-packaged binaries for your platform. The -principal example of such a distribution is TeX Live -(`http://www.tug.org/texlive/'), which is based on the Web2c sources. - - Please consider joining the TeX Users Group (TUG) or another user -group of your choice to help support the maintenance and development of -the programs you retrieve. See `http://www.tug.org/join.html' for -information and the membership registration form, and -`http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html' for a listing of all user groups. - - For actual installation instructions after obtaining the necessary -sources, see *Note Installation::. A copy is in the distribution file -`kpathsea/INSTALL'. - -Electronic distribution ------------------------ - -In many places we refer to CTAN:. This is _both_ a host name and a -directory name. Here are the primary locations: - - `ftp://ctan.tug.org/tex-archive/' (Vermont, USA) - `ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/' (Germany) - `ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/' (England) - -CTAN has many mirrors worldwide; see the top-level file -`README.mirrors' from one of the sites above or see -`http://www.tug.org/CTAN.sites'. - - You can also access CTAN via the World Wide Web, electronic mail, or -NFS. The same `README.mirrors' file explains how. - - You will need to retrieve some or all of the following archives, -depending on your needs (don't forget to set binary mode for file -transfers): - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/web.tar.gz' - The original WEB source files, written primarily by Don Knuth. - Required unless you already have this `web' version. (The WEB - sources change irregularly with respect to Web2c itself.) Unpacks - into `web2c-VERSION'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/web2c.tar.gz' - The Web2c system. Required. Also unpacks into `web2c-VERSION'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/web2c-etex.tar.gz' - Additions to the Web2c system for building e-TeX. Optional. - Unpacks into `web2c-VERSION'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/etexlib.tar.gz' - Additions to the texmf tree needed to build e-TeX. Optional. - Unpacks into `texmf/'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/etexdoc.tar.gz' - Documentation for e-TeX as an addition to the texmf tree. - Optional. Unpacks into `texmf/'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/web2c-omega.tar.gz' - Additions to the Web2c system for building Omega. Optional. - Unpacks into `web2c-VERSION'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/omegalib.tar.gz' - Additions to the texmf tree needed to build Omega.

Unpacks into `texmf/'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/web2c-pdftex.tar.gz' - Additions to the Web2c system for building pdfTeX. Optional. - Unpacks into `web2c-VERSION'. - -`CTAN:/systems/web2c/pdftexlib.tar.gz' - Additions to the texmf tree needed to build pdfTeX. Optional. - Unpacks into `texmf/'. - -`CTAN:/dviware/xdvik/xdvik.tar.gz' - X window system DVI previewer. Unpacks into `xdvik-VERSION'. - Optional. - - Additional drivers, macro files, and other support are needed to build -a working system. These are available in teTeX. - - All that said, the originating host for the software above is -`ftp.tug.org'. You can retrieve these distributions (but not much -else) from the `tex/' directory on that host. - -CD-ROM distribution -------------------- - -Numerous organizations distribute various TeX CD-ROM's (and DVD's): - - * Virtually all the TeX user groups collaborate to produce the `TeX - Live' distribution once a year; see `http://www.tug.org/texlive/' - for more information. - - * The Free Software Foundation's `Source Code CD-ROM' contains the - minimal TeX source distribution described in the previous section - (i.e., enough to print GNU documentation); email <gnu@gnu.org>. - - * Most Linux distributions include some TeX package based on Web2c; - see the Linux documentation file `Distribution-HOWTO' for a - comparison of Linux distributions, available (for example) via - `http://www.linux.org'. - - If you know of additional TeX distributions to add to this list, -please inform <tex-k@mail.tug.org>. - -Other TeX packages ------------------- - -Many other TeX implementations are available in `CTAN:/systems', -including ready-to-run distributions for Unix, Amiga, Acorn, VMS, -Macintosh, DOS, and Windows (in various forms). Although Web2c has -support in the source code for many operating systems, and in fact some -of the other distributions are based on it, it's unlikely to work as -distributed on anything but Unix. (Please contribute improvements!) - - The principal user-oriented Unix distribution based on Web2c is the -teTeX distribution. It includes complete sources, and runs on all -modern Unix variants, including Linux. It contains many TeX-related -programs besides those in the core Web2c. - - The host labrea.stanford.edu is the original source for the files for -which Donald Knuth is directly responsible: `tex.web', `plain.tex', -etc. However, unless you want to build your TeX library tree ab initio, -it is more reliable and less work to retrieve these files as part of -the above packages. In any case, labrea is not the canonical source for -anything except what was created by Stanford TeX project, so do not -rely on all the files available at that ftp site being up-to-date. - |
