Main features of the teTeX distribution:
- file organisation TDS (TeX Directory Structure) Standard compliant
- very easy to install and customize (install.sh and texconfig utility)
- LaTeX2e (June 1996) together with lots of
extra LaTeX packages (most packages mentioned in the LaTeX Companion)
- a lot of documentation: more than 130 dvi/ps-files, teTeX manual, FAQs
- support for read-only inputs tree (i.e. possibility to use alternate
destination for newly created fonts)
- ready for a multi platform setup
- fast file searching. web2c patched to work with kpathsea-2.6. The
search paths are chosen to give high performance.
- run-time configuration files for dvi-drivers and tex+friends.
- a nice set of fonts to play with: PostScript fonts, ams, pandora, cm,
dc, oldgerman and more. All easily accessible by LaTeX.
- METAPOST included
- the whole distribution can be installed anywhere in the
filesystem (e.g. /usr/TeX or /usr/local/tex). You do not
need to set any environment variable as long as you keep
the original structure of the package.
