I compiled for Web2C-7.2 for building Japanese TeX "ASCII-pTeX".
But you can use Web2C-7.2 under OS/2 Warp 4.
Supported platform: OS/2 Warp 4( I don't test Warp3, 2.11, 2.1)
Required Harddisk space: 70MB(HPFS-formatted.)
Required software: emx0.9d+fix2 runtime:
GNU shell utilities, GNU file utilities, GNU text utlities,
GNU sed, GNU awk, PDKSH, GNU grep
How to install.
Download and set up "emx 0.9d runtime", "GNU shell utilities, GNU
file utilities, GNU text utilities, GNU sed, GNU awk, PDKSH
From now on, I simulate to install Web2C-7.2 for OS/2 under d:\usr\local
unzip downloaded all archive files with "-d d:\usr\local" option. like
this, "unzip web2c72.zip -d d:\usr\local", "unzip dvips578.zip -d d:\usr\local",
etc...
set up environmental valiables:
add these lines to your CONFIG.SYS,
set TEXMF=d:/usr/local/share/texmf
set TEXMF=d:/usr/local/share/texmf/web2c
add to PATH d:\usr\local\bin
set TMPDIR=d:/tmp
Please set environment variable TMPDIR same drive as Web2C-7.2 was installed.
Then shutdown and reboot.
Now you can use Web2C for OS/2
If you have any question or any trouble, please E-mail to Yoshihiro Daikoku.
