<h2>When do I have to upgrade?</h2>
If the directory<br>
<code><texmf*>/doc/generic/vntex/tests</code><br>
doesn't exist you should upgrade. In this case you have a very old version of VnTeX.
<p>
The version number of the release you actually have installed appears
in the first line of the file<br>
<code><texmf*>/doc/generic/vntex/vntex.txt</code>.<br>
The version number of <em>this</em> release is 3.1.2.
<p>
The latest stable release can be downloaded from
<a href="http://vntex.org/download/vntex"><tt>http://vntex.org/download/vntex</tt></a>.
<p>
Beta releases can be downloaded from
<a href="http://vntex.org/download/vntex-beta"><tt>http://vntex.org/download/vntex-beta</tt></a>.
<p>
Bugfixes can be found at <a href="http://vntex.org/download/vntex-update"><tt>http://vntex.org/download/vntex-update</tt></a>.
Read the instructions on this page to find out whether you have to
install it.
<h2>Installation</h2>
It is recommended to create an own directory tree for vntex so that
you can remove it easily when you update your TeX system.
<p>
This directory tree should be the first item of TeX's search path,
otherwise you have to remove old versions of VnTeX or vncmr completely.
<p>
On UNIX systems this is something like <tt>/usr/local/share/texmf-vntex</tt>
for a system-wide installation or <tt>$HOME/texmf-vntex</tt> if you do not have
access to this directory. On Windows <tt>c:\texmf-vntex</tt> is a good place.
<p>
Unpack <tt>vntex-3.1.2.zip</tt> or <tt>vntex-nonfree-3.1.2.zip</tt> in this
directory.
<p>
Read <tt>doc/generic/vntex/INSTALL</tt> for further instructions.
