teTeX-0.3.3 installation instructions (using precompiled binaries)
===========================================================================
1) getting the archives
2) unpack the files with install.sh or manually:
a) run install.sh
b) manual installation
A) appendix: overview about the files in this distribution
===========================================================================
1) getting the archives
===========================================================================
Get the files that you think that you may need. For an overview about
the distribution, see appendix A.
Put the files either all into one common directory, or keep the given
structure.
NOTE: if you do not want to recompile the binaries, you do not need to
download the content of the source directory.
===========================================================================
ftp example:
===========================================================================
# mkdir binaries base doc fonts
# ftp sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de
ftp> cd /pub/comp/tex/teTeX/distrib
ftp> bin
ftp> prompt
ftp> mget install.sh base doc fonts binaries/i486-linux.tar.gz
ftp> quit
===========================================================================
2a) run install.sh
===========================================================================
To run install.sh, you need a sh compatible shell that knows the feature
of shell functions. /bin/sh is ok on most systems, but on Ultrix, you
cannot use /bin/sh. Use /bin/sh5 or bash instead. Then run the install.sh
script with that shell.
Example 1:
/bin/sh install.sh
Example 2: (Ultrix)
/bin/sh5 install.sh
===========================================================================
2b) manual installation
===========================================================================
- the archives will unpack into a subdirectory teTeX so you do not need
to create a new subdirectory by hand.
- cd to the directory where you want to have the teTeX installation, e.g.
/usr/local:
cd /usr/local
- set your umask to 0 to unpack with the correct permissions (or use
the 'p' flag of tar, but this does not work with some broken tar versions)
- unpack the archives you want to install (including binaries):
gzip -dc tetex-base.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
gzip -dc latex-base.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
...
- you may optionally rename the teTeX directory. Example:
mv teTeX TeX
- optionally move the binaries one level up and remove the empty
subdirectory, if you only want to use teTeX on one platform.
Example:
cd teTeX/bin/i486-linux
mv * ..
cd ..
rmdir i486-linux
You need to adjust the texmf.cnf file, too. See the README in teTeX/bin
and edit teTeX/texmf.cnf:
more README
vi ../texmf.cnf
- make sure, the binaries are found along your PATH. Either create
symlinks to a standard directory or change your PATH. Example:
symlinks:
ln -s /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i486-linux/* /usr/local/bin
PATH change sh/ksh/bash:
PATH=/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i486-linux:$PATH; export PATH
PATH change csh/tcsh:
setenv PATH /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i486-linux:$PATH
- run texhash and texconfig and change what you need:
texhash
texconfig
You are done!
