INSTALLATION NOTES FOR GreekTeX v 3.1
-------------------------------------
K J Dryllerakis
Logic Programming Group
Imperial College,London
kd@doc.ic.ac.uk
This document describes how to get GreekTeX up and running
on your system. It is devided into two parts: instructions
for Unix users and Instructions for DOS emTeX users. I would
like to hope that these two categories represent a majority
of TeX users and I apologize for not extending specialised
instructions to users of other systems. For those of you that do
not fall in the two categories do not panic! Read the DOS
section and procede with the same steps. Just change the
paths and executables to match the ones in your system.
Part A: Unix Users
--------------------------
What you need:
To rebuild the whole GreekTeX package you need to have
access to the metafont and initex programs as well
as the ability to integrate new fonts and formats
to the search path of the local tex distribution.
You also need the gftopk utility for transforming
mf output to dvi readable form. For automated installation
you need a "standard" unix 'make' program, and the
'dc' calculator. If you do not have any of these you
will have to do the job by hand. If you do not have
the dc calculator you can still build the fonts
by altering the script to suit your own needs.
You also need to know the resolution of the local
printer. Finally you can do with a bit of patience.
Procedure:
The installation procedure follows the steps:
* build and install the fonts in the
standard path (both pk and tfm files)
* build the greek format files for both
greekTeX and grlatex.
* place the files in the appropriate
directory
* do a test run to see how it looks!
How to procede for an automated installation:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
STEP DESCRIPTION
-> 0 Find a suitable place to unpack the file
kdgreek3.1.tar.Z. Let us call the subdirectory
kdgreek3.1/ where all the files will be the
TOP directory.
-> 1 First edit the file unix/newfont. If a similar
script exists in your system the just forget it
and mode to the step 2. In particular set the
default paths and executable names to point
to the right direction and make sure the file
has the execute attribute set.
-> 2 Edit the Makefile at the TOP directory to
reflect the paths and setting of your own system.
It should be easy and straightforward and not many
changes should be needed in a standard distribution.
-> 3 Make the fonts: at the shell prompt type
make fonts
This will try to create the greek fonts for all
needed magnification levels and place them at
their proper place (all the job is done by the
newfont script in the unix directory or the
newfont script that you set in the makefile).
Do not be alarmed if "stange Pos " occur at some
fonts and magnifications. The fonts are still in
experimental stage and do have problems. If your
version of metafont stops at a '?' prompt just
hit return to continue.
-> 4 You can now build the formats. give the command
make formats
this will build both greek.fmt and lgreek.fmt in
the build subdirectory. Log files will be in the
log subiderctory of build.
-> 5 Install everything in its proper place by
executing the command:
make install
This will place everything in the proper place
and have you ready to go.
-> 6 Try the system out: go to the doc doc subdir
and type
greektex usage
then see what happens.
Part B: DOS emTeX users
-------------------------------
What you need:
In order to use GreekTeX on a PC running DOS and emTeX
you will need mf and friends to create the fonts (mfjob
for automated procedures) plain tex and latex bearing
version 3.0 or later (that is the format file not the
executable).
How to procede:
Unpack the distribution where convenient. If you got
GreekTeX as greektex.zip the use [pk]unzip -d greektex
at an apropriate directory. You can delete the unix,
utils directories and the makefile since they are
intended for unix users.
-> 1 Copy the file emtex/kdgreek.mfj to the MFJOB path or
in the mf directory. cd to the mf directory and
give the command mfjob -i kdgreek. If everything goes
well you will end up with a new bunch of fonts in
the proper directories.
-> 2 cd to tex and type
tex -i -8 greek \dump
This will create the files greek.fmt and greek.log
Move greek.fmt to the directory where you normally
store the format files (e.g. emtex/btexfmts) and
delete the file greek.log after reviewing the messages.
-> 3 cd to latex and type
tex -i -8 lgreek \dump
Repeat the same procedure as in step 2 for copying the
lgreek.fmt and removing the lgreek.log file.
-> 4 copy the files in the tex, latex directories to the
default search path of emtex (e.g. /emtex/inputs)
If you will be using a greek ISO character set for
modern greek you might also want to copy the files
emtex/greek.* to your inputs dir.
->5 Finally move the emtex/*.bat files to the emtex bin
directory and you are all set to go.
->6 Test the system by cd to doc and doing
greektex usage.tex
GOOD LUCK
Please send comments and bug reports to kd@doc.ic.ac.uk
DISCLAIMER:
Although I have put much effort in eliminating bugs, the
greekTeX package is still in experimental phase. If you
decide to use the package please do not blame me for any
problems that may arise from its use. I cannot be held
responsible for any problems and I cannot gurantee
bug fixes (although I guarantee that in due time I will
look over all reports and suggestions).
