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. - - -WHAT DO YOU NEED -================ - -You need MultiTeX with a TeX version 3.141. If you don't know the version -doubleclick TEX_L.TTP and INITEX_L.TTP. This will show you the version. - -If the version is 3.14 or less, you should update TeX. You can find version -3.141 at the CSTEX bundle on CTAN (systems/atari). - -Only use filenames at the 8+3 scheme, sometimes MultiTeX produces nice errors -using long or case sensitive filenames! If you are using a case sensitive -filesystem, use only lowercase, because MultiTeX-programs do some changes to -lowercase! I use uppercase in this documentation because Atari does so -traditionally. - - -SAVING YOUR OLD VERSION OF LaTeX -================================ - -If you are currently using the old LaTeX version, 2.09, you may wish -to save it before installing the new version of LaTeX. - -You should make a subdirectory calles latex209 in the MultiTeX directory -(e.g. ...\TEX\LATEX209). Then copy the subdirectories with the styles -and with other input files (normaly STYLES, INPUTS and INITEX) into this -latex209 subdirectory. You should also rename the LaTeX format file -which you use for LaTeX 2.09 (usually latex.fmt into latex209.fmt, -latex.fml into latex209.fml, latexg.fmt into latxg209.fmt and -latexg.fml into latxg209.fml). - - -BEFORE UNPACKING THE DISTRIBUTION -================================= - -You should create some new subdirectories: - ...\TEX\LATEX - ...\TEX\LATEX\BASE - ...\TEX\LATEX\UNPACKED - -Latex needs a number of files to run, for example `article.cls' -contains the `article' document class. However, these files are NOT -themselves the source files produced by the LaTeX3 Project Team. We -write documented sources in `docstrip archive files' which can be -unpacked to produce the files that LaTeX needs. For example, -classes.dtx contains the documented sources for all the LaTeX -document classes, including article.cls. - -The FIRST thing to do is to check whether you need to unpack these -archive files, as follows. - -Before reading any further, you should check to see whether the LaTeX -distribution you have contains the unpacked files. You can do this by -looking to see if you have got the file latex.ltx. If you do, then -you should have all the unpacked files and so you can move on to the -section entitled `Creating the LaTeX format'. - - -UNPACKING THE DISTRIBUTION -========================== - -The unpacking will create and write files into the current TEXOUTPUTS -directory. This helps to prevent it overwriting existing files or -causing problems with your system files. You should set TEXOUTPUTS at -the TeX-Shell (TSH) to ...\TEX\LATEX\UNPACKED (menu entry "Parameter|... TeX"). -Set TEXINPUTS to ".;...\TEX\LATEX\BASE" (iff you find UNPACK.INS at another -directory add this instead of "...\TEX\LATEX\BASE" to ".;" or copy all files at -the directory of UNPACK.INS to ...\TEX\LATEX\BASE). - -The archive files are unpacked by running iniTeX (INITEX.TTP) on the -file unpack.ins. To do this select menu entry "TeX-Projekt|Erzeugen" -and select UNPACK.INS at the file-selector (you have to change "*.INI" at the -file-selector-mask to "*.INS" or "*.*"). - -Note: Using an ATARI ST with 8Mhz this will take about 3-4 hours! - - -CREATING THE LATEX FORMAT -========================= - -You should edit the file TEX_L.OPT at the ...\TEX\FORMATS subdirectory. -Setup the variables to following values: - mem_max=100000 - pool_size=65000 - trie_size=18000 - font_mem_size=34000 -If you have more than 2MB, you may set mem_max to an greater value (e.g. 120000 -or 204800. If you only use english hyphenation pattern, you may set trie_size -to 16000 only. If you use many hyphanation pattern, you should set trie_size to -a value greater than 18000. - -Setup the Shell to use TEX_L.TTP instead of TEX.TTP and INITEX_L.TTP -instead of INITEX.TTP (menu entry "Parameter|... TeX") or the TT-Versions of -these programms. - -Set TEXINPUTS to ".;...\TEX\LATEX\*" (iff you find LATEX.LTX at another -directory add this to TEXINPUTS too, or copy all files at the directory of -LATEX.LTX to ...\TEX\LATEX\UNPACKED). - -To create the LaTeX format, you should run iniTeX on the file -`latex.ltx'. Call menu entry "TeX-Projekt|Erzeugen" and select -LATEX.LTX. - -A hyphenation file such as `hyphen.tex' is read by this run so it -should be accessible by iniTeX. It also needs to be able to read the -`.tfm' font files for the basic fonts. These font files and -hyphenation file(s) should be part of your TeX system (see also INSTALL.TXT) - -If you want e.g. german-hyphenation-pattern read the documentation of -german or babel package (you should put hyphen.cfg, ghyph31.tex and for babel -language.dat to ...\TEX\LATEX or a subdirectory). - -As result you will get a format file `latex.fml' in the -FORMATS-directory. Enter menu entry "Tex-Projekt|Einstellungen" and set -"Format-Vorgabe:" to "latex" or "LATEX". - - -PUTTING THE FILES WHERE LaTeX CAN READ THEM -=========================================== - -Setup the TEXINPUTS-Variable at menu entry "Parameter|... TeX" to -".;...\TEX\LATEX\*" (don't write "...\TEX", write the hole name of your -own TeX-directory, e.g. ".;F:\TEX\LATEX\*"). Setup the additional -TEXINPUTS-Path (after "+") to the directory, you saved your old -LaTeX2.09 to (if you have done). - -If LATEX.LTX and/or TEXSYS.CFG not at ...\TEX\LATEX or a subdirectory of this, -add there directory to TEXINPUTS. - -Setup the TEXOUTPUS-Variable at menu entry "Parameter|... TeX" to your -TeX-output-directory (e.g. "F:\TEX\OUTPUTS" or simply "."). - -You have now installed LaTeX! - - -CHECKING THAT THE INSTALLATION WORKED -===================================== - -To make sure that the installation has worked, you should run the new -LaTeX on the document `ltxcheck.tex'. - -Copy LTXCHECK.TEX to your TEXOUTPUTS-directory. Select LTXCHECK.TEX at -your TEXOUTPUTS-directory as main-document (menu entry -"TeX-Projekt|Hauptdatei") and call TeX (menu entry "Arbeiten|TeX"). - -This will produce a number of messages, each of which should be `OK'. -If any of them are `BAD', then read the notes in texpert.txt. - -If all the messages are `OK' then you are finished! - -Note: If you run LTXCHECK.TEX at another directory than TEXOUTPUTS, - ltxcheck will report not existing errors. - -FINALLY -======= - -Note: If you want to process a *.dtx-file. You have to select it as - main-file and call TeX. Unfortunately the shell deletes the - extension "dtx". So TeX searches for a *.tex-file, cannot find - it and asks for the correct filename. You have to type in the - filename (with extension "dtx") once more. - If you want to call (La)TeX with doubleclick to a *.tex- or - *.dtx-file (without typing in the name twice), you may use the - calltex-program. - - -Copyright 1998 Markus Kohm and the LaTeX3 project. - |
