Here is a sample execution of LATEX and DVIALW extracted from a PHOTO log:
@latex biblio.ltx This is TeX, Tops-20 Version 1.1 (preloaded format=lplain 84.9.29) (APS:<BEEBE.PLOT79.DOCUMENTATION>BIBLIO.LTX.28 LaTeX Version 2.06a - Release 7 July 84 (APS:<TEX.LATEX>REPORT.STY.2 Document Style 'report'.

TeXspool: dvifilewithout supplying a final carriage return. The default value of the logical name TeXspool: points to a dummy program which does nothing, so if you just type a carriage return yourself, the line is effectively ignored. This is reasonable in that it usually takes several trips through TEX before you have a .dvi file worth printing. If you like, you can redefine TeXspool: to point to your favorite DVI translator, for example,
define TeXspool: sys:dvialw.exeThen when you type a carriage return when TEX finishes, it will run the translator immediately, saving you a line of typing. If you do not want the translator to run, just cancel the line by typing CTL-U or CTL-C.
A sample invocation of DVITYPE is as follows:
@dvitype DVIFILE : story.dvi OUTPUT : tty: This is DVItype, Tops-20 Version 2.8 Output level (default=3, ? for help): Starting page (default=*): Maximum number of pages (default=1000000): Assumed device resolution in pixels per inch (default=300/1): New magnification (default=0 to keep the old one): Options selected: Starting page = * Maximum number of pages = 1000000 Output level = 3 (the works) Resolution = 300.00000000 pixels per inch numerator/denominator=25400000/473628672 magnification=1000; 0.00006334 pixels per DVI unit ' TeX output 1986.06.20:1039' Postamble starts at byte 569. maxv=43725786, maxh=30785863, maxstackdepth=3, totalpages=1 Font 33: amsl10---loaded at size 655360 DVI units Font 23: ambx10---loaded at size 655360 DVI units ...and so on...
