-<h3>Installing using preformatted ZIP files</h3>
-<p/>Installing packages, as they (&ldquo;traditionally&rdquo;) appear on
-CTAN, involves:
-<ul>
-<li> identifying where to put the various files on an TDS
- tree,
-<li> installing them, and
-<li> a few housekeeping operations.
-</ul>
-Most people, for most packages, find the first two steps onerous, the
-last being easy (unless it is forgotten!).
-<p/>Preformatted ZIP files (also known as
-<a href="FAQ-tds-zip.html">TDS ZIP files</a>) are designed to lighten
-the load of performing the first two steps of installation: they
-contain all the files that are that&rsquo;s to be installed for a given
-package, in their &ldquo;correct&rdquo; locations in a
-<a href="FAQ-tds.html">TDS tree</a>.
-<p/>To install such a file on a Unix system (we assume that you&rsquo;ll install
-into the local TEXMF tree):
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-cd $TEXMFLOCAL
-unzip $package.tds.zip
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-<p/>On a Windows system that is modern enough that it has a built-in
-ZIP unpacker, simply double-click on the file, and browse to
-where it&rsquo;s to be unpacked. (We trust that those using earlier
-versions of Windows will already have experience of using
-<i>WinZIP</i> or the like.)
-<p/>Having unpacked the <code>.zip</code> archive, in most cases the only
-remaining chore is to update the file indexes &mdash; as in
-<a href="FAQ-inst-wlcf.html">normal installation instructions</a>. However, if
-the package provides a font, you also need to enable the font&rsquo;s map,
-which is discussed in
-&ldquo;<a href="FAQ-instt1font.html">Installing a Type 1 font</a>&rdquo;
-<p/>At the time of writing, there are rather few <code>.tds.zip</code>
-files (by comparison with the huge number of packages that are
-available). As packages are updated, the number of files is
-steadily increasing, but it will be a long time before the whole set
-is covered.
