-<h3>Where to install packages</h3>
-<p/>We assume here that you have decided what tree to put your files in,
-after reading
-&#8220;<a href="FAQ-what-TDS.html">choosing a TDS tree</a>&#8221;. We will therefore
-write <code>$TEXMF</code> for it, and you need to substitute the tree
-you decided on.
-<p/>The basic idea is to imitate the directory structure in your
-existing tree(s). Here are some examples of where various sorts of
-files should go:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-.sty, .cls or .fd: $TEXMF/tex/&#60;format&#62;/&#60;package&#62;/
-.mf: $TEXMF/fonts/source/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.tfm: $TEXMF/fonts/tfm/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.vf: $TEXMF/fonts/vf/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.afm: $TEXMF/fonts/afm/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.pfb: $TEXMF/fonts/type1/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.ttf: $TEXMF/fonts/truetype/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.otf: $TEXMF/fonts/opentype/&#60;supplier&#62;/&#60;font&#62;/
-.pool, .fmt, .base or .mem: $TEXMF/web2c
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-and for modern systems (those distributed in 2005 or later, using TDS
-v1.1 layouts):
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-.map: $TEXMF/fonts/map/&#60;syntax&#62;/&#60;bundle&#62;/
-.enc: $TEXMF/fonts/enc/&#60;syntax&#62;/&#60;bundle&#62;/
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-(Map and encoding files went to directories under
-<i>$TEXMF/dvips/</i>, in earlier distributions.)
-<p/>In the lists above &lt;<i>format</i>&gt; identifies the format the macros
-are designed for &#8212; it can be things such as <code>plain</code>,
-<code>generic</code> (i.e., any format), <code>latex</code> or
-<code>context</code> (or several less common formats).
-<p/>For fonts, &lt;<i>font</i>&gt; refers to the font family (such as <code>cm</code>
-for Knuth&#8217;s Computer Modern, <code>times</code> for Adobe&#8217;s Times Roman).
-The supplier is usually obvious &#8212; the supplier
-&#8220;public&#8221; is commonly used for free fonts.
-<p/>The &lt;<i>syntax</i>&gt; (for <code>.map</code> and <code>.enc</code> files) is a
-categorisation based on the way the files are written; candidates are
-names of programs such as <i>dvips</i> or <i>pdftex</i>.
-<p/>&#8220;Straight&#8221; (La)TeX input can take other forms than the
-<code>.sty</code>, <code>.cls</code> or <code>.fd</code> listed above, too
-(apart from the &#8216;obvious&#8217; <code>.tex</code>). Examples are (the
-obvious) <code>.tex</code>, <code>.lfd</code> for <i>babel</i> language
-definitions, <code>.sto</code> and <code>.clo</code> for package and class
-options, <code>.cfg</code> for configuration information,
-<code>.def</code> for variants (such as the types of devices
-<i>graphics</i> drives). The <i>README</i> of the package should
-tell you of any others, though sometimes that information is printed
-when the package&#8217;s <a href="FAQ-install-unpack.html">comments are stripped</a>.
-All of these files should live together with the main package files.
-<p/>Note that &lt;<i>font</i>&gt; may stand for a single font or an entire family:
-for example, files for all of Knuth&#8217;s Computer Modern fonts are to be
-found in <code>.../public/cm</code>, with various prefixes as appropriate.
-<p/>The font &#8220;supplier&#8221; <em>public</em> is a sort of hold-all for
-&#8220;free fonts produced for use with (La)TeX&#8221;: as well as Knuth&#8217;s
-fonts, <em>public</em>&#8217;s directory holds fonts designed by others
-(originally, but no longer exclusively, in Metafont).
-<p/>Documentation for each package should all go, undifferentiated, into a
-directory on the <i>doc/</i> subtree of the TDS. The layout of
-the subtree is slightly different: <i>doc/latex</i> hosts all
-LaTeX documentation directories, but more fundamental things are
-covered, e.g., by <i>doc/etex</i> or <i>doc/xetex</i>.
