WinShell Installation
Following these 5 steps will lead to a working LATEX environment.
-> LATEX package
First of all, a LATEX package is required. There are two common ones:
MiKTeX: http://www.miktex.org/
TeXLive: http://www.texlive.org/
These packages can also be found at the different TEX communities:
ftp://ftp.dante.de/ Germany
ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/ England
ftp://ctan.tug.org/ USA
The LATEX packages are located at: /pub/tex/systems/win32/
-> PostScript viewer
To view the PostScript files install PostScript and the GSviewer:
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html
-> PDF viewer
There are several possibilities to view the .pdf files, e.g. with
Foxit Reader, GSViewer or Adobe Reader:
Foxit Reader: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php
GSView: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html
Adobe Reader: http://www.adobe.com/
-> SpellChecker
For spell checking download a dictionary from
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries
and copy it to the Dictionaries folder in the WinShell folder,
e.g. C:\Program Files\WinShell\Dictionaries
-> WinShell
WinShell comes as a zip file and as a complete setup program. Only ONE
is needed!
Zip file: Extract the zip file to the directory of your choice and
start WinShell.exe
Setup program: The setup program copies all the WinShell files to a
specific directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\WinShell.
Registry entries are made for the .tex and the .wsp files.
When WinShell starts for the first time, the following files will be
created in a directory depending on the OS (Operating System) version
you are running:
WinShellMacros.bmp
WinShellUserTools.bmp
WinShell.ini
WinShell.macros
WinShellDict.txt
By default, WinShell tries to find the executable files by searching
the registry. The LATEX binary path should be added to the environment
variable PATH in the autoexec.bat (depending on the OS version).
That is why WinShell should be installed in the last stage of the LATEX
installation procedure.
