We hope that, if your system's -set up differs from this then you will be sufficiently familiar with -your system to make the necessary amendments to these instructions. - - -SAVING ANY OLD VERSION OF LATEX -=============================== - -If you have a copy of LaTeX 2.09, you may wish to save it before -installing the new LaTeX. - -You should make a subdirectory called latex209 in the MicroTeX directory. -Then copy any files called *.sty from the TeX inputs directory -(normally arbortxt\inputs) into this latex209 subdirectory. You should -also rename the LaTeX format file which you use for LaTeX 2.09, usually -lplain.fmt, to latex209.fmt. Finally, rename the current executable -version of latex in \arborxt\bin to latex209.exe - -You should then create a batch file latex209.bat, which temporarily -resets the TEXINPUT environment variable to a path which includes the -latex209 subdirectory before the TeX inputs directory, and then calls -latex209.exe. Check that this batch file works before proceeding. - - -UNPACKING THE DISTRIBUTION -========================== - -To unpack the LaTeX distribution, you should change to the directory -reserved for the installation and run iniTeX on the file unpack.ins -by typing: - - initex unpack.ins - - -CREATING THE LATEX FORMAT -========================= - -To create the LaTeX format, you should run iniTeX on the file -latex.ltx by typing: - - initex latex.ltx - -This will create a file latex.fmt. - -You should copy this to the directory where TeX looks for its format -files, normally the formats subdirectory of arbortxt. - -CREATING THE LATEX PROGRAM - -Finally, create latex.exe by typing: - - preload < mklatex.dat - -PUTTING THE FILES WHERE LATEX CAN READ THEM -=========================================== - -You should move the following files to the TeX inputs directory -(usually arbortxt\inputs): - - latexbug.tex testpage.tex docstrip.tex - *.cls *.clo *.sty *.fd *.def *.cfg - -If you use the MakeIndex program (called makeindx.exe) then you should -also move the *.ist files into the inputs directory. - - -CHECKING THAT THE INSTALLATION WORKED -===================================== - -You should now run LaTeX on ltxcheck.tex. This should produce a -number of `OK' messages. If it produces any warnings, please consult -the `Problems' section of the file install.txt. - -PROBLEMS -======== - -initex requires more conventional memory than does plain tex or latex. -If either of the two steps above that use initex fail, try temporarily -unloading any TSR programs or unnecessary device drivers until you have -created the .fmt file. - - ---- Copyright 1994 Micro Programs Inc and the LaTeX3 project --- ---- All rights reserved. --- - - - |
