About Lollipop and its manual.
You have obtained a package containing the Lollipop format
and its manual.
First run Initex on the file `lollipop.tex'; this dumps a
file `lollipop.fmt'.
Then run TeX (or virtex on some unix systems) with the
format lollipop on the file manual. Typically you type
>tex &lollipop manual
or
> virtex \&lollipop manual
Something along those lines. You'll have to do that three
times to get all of the references and the table of contents
right.
The manual uses only Computer Modern, but there are a few
lines in `manual.tex' that allow you to switch easily to Times
and Helvetica on Macintosh and Unix systems.
Lollipop is not in a finished state. The manual contains
some remarks about what is still to be done. If you have any
questions, remarks, suggestions (or if you want to voice
your appreciation :-) , feel free to contact me:
