Normally, it should +work as-is, at least after copying to the right place, but you +should review the following items: + +- check which shortcuts you want to include (add_desktop_shortcut + and add_menu_shortcut) + +- Decide which file associations, if any, you want to create + (register_extension and register_filetype). Although we wrote the + functions for it, we decided in the end not to use them in the + regular installation. + +- You can comment out or remove the xetex stanza if you aren't going +- to use xetex. + +- If the directory layout is non-standard, you may have to edit the + texmf.cnf in the root of the installation. Use relative + directories, using $SELFAUTOPARENT, whenever possible. See + texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf for examples. -- cgit v1.2.3
