ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. 1 Introduction ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 pmCSTeX for EPM is a macro package for the editor EPM (free editor for OS/2).
 It adds some buttons on the toolbar and CSTeX submenu into EPM's menu,
 allowing user to access many (em)TeX-related actions.

 The aim of this work was the implementation of a pleasant menu system for
 OS/2. Editor EPM has been chosen since it provides wonderful programming
 capabilities, and, what it is the most important for the Czech users, there is
 a programmable Czech keyboard implemented by Z. Wagner (you can get it
 anonymously from ftp.icpf.cas.cz). (It should be noted that the keyboard that
 IBM includes in Warp is nearly unusable for programmers since they prefer a
 reasonable combination of US and Czech keyboard layouts, not standard Czech
 typing machine layout.  It is really bad that IBM does not provide
 configurable keyboard driver or its source code.)

 This package is called pmCSTeX since it is related to the CSTeX distribution
 and because it was worked out by me (pm).  CSTeX (Czech and Slovak TeX) is
 being released since 1993 and it is based on the TeX implementation by E.
 Mattes (the famous emTeX).  In addition to the standard emTeX distribution,
 there are programs and styles that support typesetting in  Czech and Slovak
 languages. CSTeX includes an installation program (which is missing in emTeX)
 and a very pleasant menu system for DOS. However, the pmCSTeX package does not
 require CSTeX installation; you can use it with any (em)TeX distribution.

 Working on pmCSTeX for EPM, the author was motivated by the following
 packages:

 o CSTeX MNU for DOS: TeX menu system for DOS, included in CSTeX distribution.
   Author: Petr Olчаk

 o TeXshell: Turbo Vision TeX developing system (for DOS and DOS window in
   OS/2). I liked it very much (I like Borland-like environments, on-line help
   etc.), it is programmable in a wonderful way. However, it's just DOS, it has
   64KB limit on file sizes, it crashed from time to time (in my OS/2 window),
   and there is no "Undo" function. Author: Juergen Schlegelmilch

 o EPMTeX: TeX menu system for editor EPM. Good, but it does not fulfilled my
   high expectations I got accustomed to in TeXshell (e.g. it always appends
   the Master file at the command line). I accepted its First line syntax
   (Master:, Format: etc.). Authors: Jon Hacker and Rodney Korte

 o WETeX: actions and icons are defined to tex, preview (and more) of a
   document. Based on EAs, not Master: notation. I do not use it since I do not
   use WPS (my computer has not got enough RAM). Author: ZdenΓò¬k Wagner

 o emacs: well, I never used this editor except very simple editing (I prefer
   vi on unix). However, I was always amazed by its feature "(La)TeX current
   paragraph"---therefore I implemented it in pmCSTeX for EPM as well. Authors:
   GNU

 o pmgraf: that's my integrated Turbo Vision environment for 2d and 3d graph
   plotting (see my WWW page for more details). The build-in editor contains
   hotkeys for pull-down menus for LaTeX environments and font sizes, and a
   Greek keyboard. Thus I implemented these features into EPM as well. Author:
   Petr Mikul╨▒k

 This package is FREEWARE. This package is provided AS IS and the author is NOT
 RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS that can arise from the use or misuse of pmCSTeX
 for EPM.  I'm not EPM programmer, I'm physicist.  Don't blame me if something
 wrong happend to your .tex files, but send me the bug report. Or even better:
 send me the solution with the appropriate patch.

 This package was developed and tested on EPM 6.03 and EPM 6.03b. Get the
 latest version of EPM if you have an older one.

 pmCSTeX is available on hobbes.nmsu.edu (directory os2/unix/tex), on
 ftp.leo.org (directory pub/comp/os/os2/emTeX/contrib) and on CTAN mirrors
 (directory CTAN/systems/os2/pmcstex). Online documentation and the up-to-date
 bug fix list (if needed) is available on my WWW page. Further, pmCSTeX is
 included in my os2.zip modul for CSTeX'96 distribution (see my WWW page).

 This is version: 8.6.1996

 Note: The coincidence of the abbreviation of my name and the abbreviation of
 the Presentation Manager is just accidental.  Unfortunately, IBM does not pay

 more easier and rapid)


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. 2 Installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 I hope you already unzip-ed pmCSTeX.zip in an empty directory. Let us suppose
 you correctly installed EPM (I use 6.03) to the directory E:\APPS\EPM. Thus
 make directory E:\APPS\EPM\CSTeX and move all files you unpacked from
 pmCSTeX.zip into it. If you are not user of CSTeX'96 installation, then rename
 CSTeX_.ex to CSTeX.ex (that _ means that CSTeX.e has been compiled with
 CSTEX_CSTEX = 0, see below).

 Edit config.sys and change it like

 Example:

  EPMPATH=...;E:\APPS\EPM\CSTeX;...

 and be sure that the environmental variable EMTEXOPT is set up like that

 Example:

  SET EMTEXOPT=/mt65000 /mp65000

 (this change with the change of .cmd files has been made on 19.5.1996, see
 History).

 Then edit E:\APPS\EPM\actions.lst and add these two lines to the top of that
 file:

 Example:

  CSTeX
  pm4EPM

 Now edit E:\APPS\EPM\Profile.erx and add these two lines to the bottom:

 Example:

  'link pm4epm'
  'link CSTeX'

 If these two files are not present in your EPM directory, unpack them from
 pm_erx.zip and consult another documentation what are these files about.

 I'm sure you want the on-line hypertext help about LaTeX2e commands. Thus take
 l2e_ndx.zip and unpack it in the directory %EMTEXDIR%\BOOK\ENGLISH (like
 E:\EMTEX\BOOK\ENGLISH). Read ltx_inf.rme how R. Niepraschk created
 LaTeX2e.INF. Then read !CTINDX (in Czech) or !READNDX (in English) how I have
 created LaTeX2e.NDX.  Follow the instructions there---you have to modify your
 config.sys to have

 Example:

  SET BOOKSHELF=..;E:\EMTEX\BOOK\ENGLISH;...
  SET EPMPATH=...;E:\EMTEX\BOOK\ENGLISH;...
  SET HELPNDX=...+LaTeX2e.NDX

 Now reboot your computer. When it is done, go to E:\APPS\EPM\CSTeX and type

 Example:

  start epm example.tex inc.tex

 A new menu item CSTeX should appear on the menu bar. If not, something was
 wrong and you should repair it (have a good chance!). Probably you have not
 checked options in File/Settings/Misc.

 Now check the CSTeX toolbar. Go to File/Settings/Toolbars, use "Import" file
 E:\APPS\EPM\CSTeX\CSTeX.bar, name it CSTeX toolbar and then "Make current".
 Admire it. If you are not satisfied, change the toolbar as you wish (but do it
 next day).

 Please verify that you can run from the command line commands latex
 (=latex2e), plaintex, latex209 etc. (CSTeX'96 users shoudl have cslatex,
 csplain, cslatex209 etc.). You should have installed emTeX in such a way, that
 you have latex.cmd, plain.cmd,... (or latex.cmd = cslatex.cmd, csplain.cmd,
 cslatex209.cmd,...) in %EMTEXDIR%\bin. So you should be able to recompile the
 LaTeX document typing in an OS/2 window

 Example:

  latex _any_latex_document_.tex

 And you should be able to start the previewer by

 Example:

  start dvipm @dvipm.cnf _any_latex_document_.dvi

 (I supposed you copied lj.cnf or p6l.cnf or whatever resolution you want to
 dvipm.cnf). If the above does not work, configure emTeX properly. You can copy
 the files from pm_bins.zip to %EMTEXDIR%\bin. In any case, copy cykl*.cmd
 files from it to that directory.

 Check the last lines of %EMTEXDIR%\bin\maketexp.cmd file if you want that
 dvips generates fonts automatically (dvipm does that par def).

 If you want to run (La)TeX over you document from the command line (without
 launching EPM), you can use pmTeXit.cmd _your_file_.tex. You should copy
 pmTeXit.cmd somewhere on your path.

 You may or may not want the automatic syntax highlighting.

 Now, read Czech.E if you use it or go to Tutorial. Please don't forget to read
 about the syntax of the keywords on the first line of the Master file.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.1. 2.1 Syntax highlighting ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 There are people that do like syntax highlighting (yes, I do) and those they
 do not like this colour circus. This section is how to enable this spotted
 feature.

 In order to apply the colours into files listed on the command line after EPM
 starts, add this line to the end of your Profile.erx file:

 Example:

  'cstex_highlight_all S'

 To let file loaded from within EPM (e.g. via menu) flood by colours, put the
 following code into your MyCNF.e file

 Example:

  defload
  'a_togl_hilit S'

 and recompile it (etpm MyCNF.e). Further, you should have line

 Example:

  'link MyCNF'

 in your Profile.erx. Files are highlighted according to their extension listed
 in sampactn.e file (and loaded from sampactn.ex) together with the file like
 epmkwds._extension_ used for this nice painting feature. Of course, you should
 have put the line

 Example:

  'link sampactn'

 into your Profile.erx (you can have a look at pm_erx.zip file in pmCSTeX
 distribution to my Profile.erx). Additionally, since the original sampactn.e
 includes only .tex and .latex extensions, but not .sty, .cls and .dtx, and
 there is not support for .log files highlighting, you can use my sampactn.e
 and sampactn.ex included in the pmCSTeX distribution.  If you want to
 recompile sampactn.e yourself, you need files english.e, stdconst.e and
 menuhelp.h from epmmac.zip.

 Finally, I prefer the syntax highlighting as used in Borland products---yellow
 letters on blue background.  If you set those colours in Settings of EPM, then
 you find worth to unpack pm_hilit.zip (to directory E:\APPS\EPM) to correct
 the appropriate highlighting files.  Moreover, syntax highlighting for .log
 files (created by TeX) are supported by epmkwds.log file.  Please don't forget
 to backup the original files being overwritten.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.2. 2.2 My config.sys ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 Occasionally problems appear when some global variables in config.sys are
 missing. Here is my config.sys if you want to have a look:

 Example:


  SET PATH=...;e:\apps\epm;E:\OS2\APPS;e:\emtex\bin;...
  SET DPATH=...;e:\apps\epm;E:\OS2\APPS;...
  LIBPATH=...;e:\apps\epm;E:\OS2\APPS\DLL;e:\emtex\dll;...
  SET BOOKSHELF=...;e:\apps\epm;e:\emtex\book\english;...
     rem Someone prefers german instead of english
  SET HELP=...;e:\emtex\help;...

  ...

  rem ******************** emTeX *********************************

  SET EMTEXDRV=E
  SET EMTEXDIR=E:\EMTEX
  SET TEXINPUT=E:\EMTEX\TEXINPUT!
    rem For plain only; *tex*.cmd scripts redefine this
  SET EMTEXOPT=/mt65000 /mp65000
    rem This you MUST have!
  SET DVIDRVINPUT=E:\EMTEX\DOC;E:\EMTEX\DOC\ENGLISH
  SET DVIDRVFONTS=E:\EMTEX\fonts
    rem In this case, I do not use the recommendation by E. Mattes to use \TEXFONTS directory
  SET MFJOBOPT=/3
  SET INDEXSTYLE=E:\EMTEX\texinput\latex2e
    rem sth like path for MakeIndex, .ist files?
  SET DVIPSHEADERS=E:\EMTEX\data\dvips
  SET TEXCONFIG=E:\EMTEX\data\dvips
  SET CSBIBALP=E:\EMTEX\data\csbibtex

  SET TEXFORMATDEFAULT=latex
  SET HELPNDX=EPMKWHLP.NDX+EMX.NDX+LaTeX2e.NDX
  SET EPMPATH=e:\apps\epm;e:\apps\epm\cstex;e:\apps\epm\epmmac;e:\apps\epm\epmmac2;
     e:\emtex\book\english;e:\emtex\book\czech;e:\os2\apps


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.3. 2.3 Spell checking in EPM ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 EPM comes with the US dictionary and synonym file. If you want to proof text
 written in another language, it's quite easy:  IBM Works from your BonusPak
 use the same dictionary files.  Thus go to the directory of IBM Works of
 desired language version and copy diction.@ file to your hard disc. Unpack it
 by the command unpack diction.@ and copy the dictionary files (US.dic, UK.dic,
 francais.dic) to the desired location (EPM directory). Then type the
 dictionary filename into EPM Settings/Paths/Dictionary file and rename the
 default personal dictionary lexam.adl to something like UK.adl, FR.adl etc.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.4. 2.4 Information for Czech.E users ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 If you use the macro Czech.E that implements Czech keyboard in EPM (by Z.
 Wagner), you would encounter some collisions with the Greek keyboard. That's
 why you should replace Czech.E by Czech_PM.E (from Czech_PM.zip file in this
 package). I have added one global variable that keeps the status of the Czech
 keyboard (and I have commented out the beeps; you can restore them if you like
 them).

 Pokud p¤ijdete na dЕvod t╪ch kolizб a opravбte to, dejte mi prosбm v╪d╪t.

 Now, go to  Tutorial.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. 3 Tutorial ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 Welcome to the tutorial! I suppose you launched EPM in E:\APPS\EPM\CSTeX by

 Example:

  start epm example.tex inc.tex

 If there is no CSTeX menu item, reboot the computer. Try Tutorial again. If it
 is the same, consult Installation.

 Now click on the word description (in example.tex file).  Press Ctrl/H. Help
 should appear.  If not, l2e_ndx.zip was not unpacked well.  Well, if you press
 Ctrl/H on \batchmode, you get the warning "Unable to find entry...".  It means
 this key word is not listed in LaTeX2e.NDX.  Well, it's correct---this is TeX
 primitive and it is not documented in LaTeX2e.INF.

 You edit example.tex. Choose "CSTeX/(La)TeX document /b". Then latex.cmd will
 be launched to proceed your file (CSTeX'96 users should have their LaTeX.cmd
 command script equal to csLaTe  cmd). It finished. There was one mistake.
 However, tex386 has not stopped due to /b (=batchmode) command line parameter
 passed into tex386.  So you now press Shift-F12 and the error will be
 localized.  Press several times F12 to localize and read the .log file in the
 edit ring.  Go back to example.tex, correct the mistake, and press Shift-F12
 again.  "No more errors" message should appear.  Then start Previewer.
 Usually you are re(La)TeXing your document while dvipm is simultaneously on
 your screen, so you hear beep when tex386 finished.

 In the above procedure tex386 window has been minimized so you could see that
 only new icon appeared on your desktop for a moment.  On the other hand, if
 you use the menu item "CSTeX/(La)TeX document", then your document is
 re(La)TeXed on foreground using interactive mode.

 Now click to any paragraph (block of text) and click on icon [TeXit]. The
 current paragraph should be recompiled and automatically updated by dvipm
 (haven't you forget to set "Auto reload" in dvipm?).

 Now play with it yourself. Read the other part of the documentation for more
 details. For full details, read the source code of pm4EPM.e and CSTeX.e. If
 there some problems, please correct them and send me the solution. Have fun!

 Please don't forget to read about the syntax of the keywords on the first line
 of the Master file.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. 4 Usage ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 Please go yourself through all the CSTeX menu options, icons and actions that
 you can icon-ify.  This manual will probably never be too complete. I have to
 finish my PhD soon so I do not have much time.

 However, it should not mine, since "ordinary" users will hardly change the
 code, and the programmers will do it easily. Anyway, you are welcome to have a
 look at .e files what's really inside. They are readable...


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1. 4.1 Syntax of expansions ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 You edit a file. It is called working file. If its first line contains

 Example:

    %  .......   Master: b.tex   .....

 then b.tex is its master file to which all actions like latexing, previewing
 etc. will be related. If there is no Master: keyword on its first line, this
 file is both Working and Master.

 The first line of the Master file can contain other keywords which are
 expanded by pm4EPM.e. CSTeX.e reacts to the following keywords:

 Example:

    % .... Format: cslatex209  .....

 This is used to texing the document. .cmd file of the same name as is that of
 the format is called to compile the document (in the above example,
 cslatex209.cmd is called).  If no Format: is present, environmental variable
 LATEXFORMATDEFAULT is searched.  If that is not defined, default format latex
 is used.

 Example:

    % .... EMTEXOPT: */mp85500*  .....

 This keyword is added to the environmental variable EMTEXOPT before
 _format_.cmd is started. The above option I use for AMS-LaTeX and AMS-fonts.
 Another example: if you want to get rid of the user interaction even in the
 CSTeX/(La)TeX document, then replace */mp85500* by */mp85500 /b* or by */b*.
 See the emTeX documentation for more details (\emtex\doc\(english or
 german)\tex.doc.

 Example:

    % .... dvips: *-p 3 -l 9 -A*  .....

 This keyword enables passing parameters into dvips (in this case, only odd
 pages between page 3 and 9 are postscripted). Look at dvips documentation (or
 type dvips at the command prompt) for more details.

 Example:

    % .... ViewOpts: */tr1 +zoom:4 +inverse*  .....

 The string between those stars (*) or any pair of same chars is taken as the
 argument for printer/viewer command line. That means not for "Viewer document"
 (interactive dvipm), but for "Preview before print" and "Print". Consult
 \emtex\doc\english\dvidrv.doc for more details about the available switches,
 or type /?? at the dvi* prompt.

 If you are Editing settings of an icon on the toolbar, there is "Parameters"
 line related to "Action". This Parameter is expanded as described directly in
 the pm4EPM.e file. They are not used by CSTeX.e (yet).


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2. 4.2 CSTeX menu items explanation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 LaTeX document

 Compiles document on foreground: start /c /win /f cmd.exe /c %format.cmd %N
 Abbreviatin %N expands to the master file and %format to the format of the
 document.

 LaTeX document /b

 As above, but TeXing is started on the background.  Well, in both cases, you
 should have used \batchmode TeX command in the beginning of your file to force
 tex386 go smoothly over errors (you locate errors later using Shift-F12).

 Locate next error

 If .log file is loaded, then search for the next error. If .log file is not
 loaded, load it to the editor and search for the first error. If it is loaded,
 refresh it and start from the beginning.

 Technical note: the above works fine for me; I think there is no need to
 implement in next_error to check the file on the harddisk whether it has
 changed or not every time when next_error function is invoked by the user.

 PostScript menus

 dvips will be used to convert .dvi -> .ps. Then you can launch either gvpm
 program (it's GhostView for OS/2; see the OS/2 ftp site in Stuttgart or
 4allTeX CD-ROM) or use the nice DOS previewer psview (available at
 ftp.muni.cz:pub/tex/local/postscript/psview.zip). If you print from dvips,
 then the output goes to prn port. See the the keyword dvips: applicable for
 the Master's first line in the section Syntax.

 Printing menus

 Menu for printing using dvihplj and 300 dpi was well tested. Others not. If
 you have other printer not listed explicitly in the menu, then .cmd script
 will be called with myprt1.cmd or myprt2.cmd. For previewing, myprt1.cnf or
 myprt2.cnf will be used. You should prepare them yourself, according to
 \emtex\bin\prt*.cmd and \emtex\data\*.cnf files.

 Editor / Include

 The file whose name is under the cursor is included into the editor.  The
 routine is implemented such that it looks to the current directory, then to
 ..\units, then to \emtex\texinput, then to some of the \emx\include
 directories.  You can easily add your favourite directories to the source code
 of CSTeX.e and recompile the macros.

 Moreover, not only the file under cursor, but as well as those files with .h,
 .c, .cpp, .sty, .tex are searched. Try it and see.

 Other TeX programs

 Drawing programs: TeXcad is well-known, Qfig probably less. But there are
 XFree86 ported to OS/2 (http://set.gmd.de/~veit/os2/xf86os2.html) so I'm
 really glad that I can use Xfig for OS/2. Since you run XFree86 in a separate
 full-screen session, there is no item for it. PageDraw for PostScript drawing
 is a good tool as well, but it runs in Win-OS2 session.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.3. 4.3 Hotkeys in CSTeX ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 These hotkeys are defined:

 Ctrl/3

 It brings menu with LaTeX environments

 Ctrl/4

 It brings menu with AMSLaTeX environments

 Ctrl/5

 It brings menu with LaTeX font sizes

 Alt-G

 Switches the keyboard to the Greek keyboard. After pressing Alt-G and pressing
 a key, its Greek character (in TeX syntax) will be typeset instead. E.g. Alt-G
 a produces \alpha.

 Note: if the keyboard is not switched to the keyboard layout you was using
 before, then change the end of DEFPROC pm_TypeGreek() according to any global
 flag your personal keyboard provides.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.4. 4.4 Hotkeys in pm_keys ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 There are some hotkeys you may or may not find useful. You can either add
 'link pm_keys' into Profile.erx, or copy the hotkey definitions into your
 MyKeys.E file (then recompile it). Currently, I use these definitions:

 Ctrl/Y

 It deletes the current line (as Ctrl/BackSpace does). I'm used to this key
 sequence from Borland-like editors

 Alt-Z

 It brings a dialog with margin setup. Easier then going to File/Settings...

 Alt-Q

 It produces % \begin{equation}...\end{equation} % environment.

 Ctrl-Q

 If the line under cursor contains only \begin{equation}, it changes it into
 \begin{eqnarray}. If there is \begin{eqnarray}, it is changed to
 \begin{align}, and if there is \begin{align}, it transforms back to
 \begin{equation}. The same thing works under \end{...} lines as well.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5. 5 Recompiling the macros ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 Your need stdconst.e from epmmac.zip (see hobbes.nmsu.edu:os2/editors). This
 file has to be on your EPMPATH.

 The following commands will compile CSTeX EPM macros:

 Example:

  etpm pm4EPM
  etpm CSTeX

 You can recompile CSTeX.e into two menu schemes depending on the constant
 CSTEX_CSTEX:

 CSTEX_CSTEX=1

 This produces CSTeX for EPM that is distributed together with CSTeX'96
 distribution. It includes support for all our favourite CS features and
 programs

 CSTEX_CSTEX=0

 This disables compilation of the features specific for CSTeX'96 distribution

 CSTEX_CS2CS=1

 Uses OS/2 program cs2cs.exe for Czech encodings conversion (this program does
 not come with CSTeX'96 distribution yet, get it from
 ftp://aip1.fsv.cvut.cz/users/ferdi/cs2cs.zip

 CSTEX_CS2CS=0

 Uses DOS program cstocs.exe for Czech encodings conversion (included in
 CSTeX'96 distribution, but due to cs2cs.exe it became obsolete now)

 Two options in DEFINIT routine in CSTeX.e

 cstex_true_tex_background=1 is default option that minimizes window of the
 background TeXing. Set cstex_true_tex_background=0 to get the whole window.
 cstex_background_beep=0 is default option to avoid beep when background texing
 has finished (dvipm can do it for you). Set cstex_background_beep=1 if you
 would prefer this beep.

 You can do the appropriate changes in both files---as you wish. In fact, you
 should changed the menus and related things if some build-in options do not
 suite your customs. I tried to write the code as simple as possible---I'm not
 professional EPM programmer.

 However, KEEP IN MIND that you can distribute the files derived from CSTeX
 ONLY IF the original distribution of pmCSTeX.zip comes with them! People need
 to know where that comes from, whom they can make donations to or who is the
 person to blame...


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. 6 Conclusion ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 This is first international release of pmCSTeX for EPM. I works perfectly for
 me, but that need not be the case for you. Please let me know what causes
 problems, what should be additionally included etc. Thanks.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.1. 6.1 History ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 8.6.1996  final release---upload to hobbes, leo and CTAN

 7.6.1996 Meaning of Alt-Q changed, added Ctrl-Q hot key; spell-checker
 discussion

 28.5.1996 TeXing action works even when you ask for it from within .log file;
 next_error: oval drawing for ...long line with an error works now better

 26.5.1996 Typo/bug from 19.5. corrected; sampactn.e replaced according to new
 EPM 6.03b

 19.5.1996 EMTEXOPT keyword added (see syntax) so you don't need to change your
 .cmd files if you use AMS-LaTeX or memory consuming documents.  Therefore
 EMTEXOPT environmental variable has to be established and it should contain
 fixed memory parameters (see Installation).  These were previously in .cmd
 files and they have been changed in this release.  Using this EMTEXOPT trick
 there is no more need to have \batchmode command in the Master file.  Document
 being (La)TeXed on background is iconified, but this can be changed (see
 recompiling).

 16.5.1996 suggestions and minor changes reported by Wolfgang Kronberg
 ([e-mail]) taken into account. Section about syntax highlighting
 written.

 15.5.1996 annoying message "I think you re(La)TeXed..." taken away; dvips
 option into pm4EPM (i.e. new expandable keyword dvips for the Master's first
 line included)

 9.5.1996  odstranΓò¬no zdvojen╨▒ ~V v menu View a vlnka

 6.5.1996  announcement in comp.os.os2.announce

 6.5.1996  cstocs.exe replaced by cs2cs.exe

 2.5.1996  AMS-LaTeX environments support

 28.4.1996 Only small changes

 1.3.1996  First public announcement

 6.2.1996  Distribution for my colleagues

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.2. 6.2 Known bugs ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 The same problem of the instability of the red oval over the first error found
 in .log file as in EPMTEX occured.

 Using "Next error", an error is found correctly but the current file (the file
 with the error) is switched off to .log file. I don't know why, this comes
 irregularly, is there something wrong what is on the stack of EPM? Because

 Vlnka,dvi-out,csbibtex: nevбm, jak je spustit v okn╪ tak, aby na n╪ EPM poЯkal
 a╨╖ se vykonaj╨▒, a teprve pak obnovil soubor v editoru. Zat╨▒m to z╨░platuji
 hlачkou (Prosбm relaxujte...), kterou uзivatel odklepne, kdyз DOS uз skonЯil a
 jeho okno se zav¤elo. Bylo by velice uзiteЯnВ, kdyby tyhle programy n╪kdo
 zkompiloval pro OS/2

 Czech.E users: V prvnбm okn╪ ringu funguje Яeskа klаvesnice bez problВmЕ,
 ovчem v dalчбch ji nenб moзnВ spustit (p¤es Alt-[). Musб se napsat jakВkoliv
 ¤eckВ pбsmeno (nap¤. Alt-G a) a teprve potom dаt Alt-[. Nevбte n╪kdo, proЯ se
 to chov╨░ takto?
