This archive contains several directories. If you unpack the archive in
/dd/sys/tex, then everything should end up in the right place, except
for possibly the executables. Of course, the detailed installation will
depend on your system.
Size Directory Description
---------- -------------- ------------------------------------------
144K ./CMDS Executables, and C source for MakeTeXPK
79K ./DVIPS DVIPS configuration and PostScript header files
171K ./FONTS/TFM TFMs for PostScript fonts
88K ./FONTS/VF Virtual Font files
188K ./INPUTS/DVIPS LaTeX styles and TeX files
Total:794K
Some files to be aware of:
./CMDS/MakeTeXPK.C The MakeTeXPK program is run by DVIPS whenever
it can't find a font. MakeTeXPK in turn runs MetaFont, gftopk,
and does any necessary housekeeping to make the font available to
DVIPS. This version creates a directory in /DD/SYS/TEX/FONTS, if
necessary, runs MetaFont and gftopk, and sets the attributes on the
resulting files to public read. You may have to edit and re-compile
this if you manage your fonts differently.
./DVIPS/config.ps This is the master configuration file. You should
edit it for your specific printer and directory setup. If you have
more than one printer, you can also set up config.<printer name> files
for each one.
./INPUTS/DVIPS/texinfo.tex This is the "TeX-info" header. The FSF
developed a file format to allow one file to serve both as printed
documentation and as an online hyper-text reference manual. This
file allows TeX to format these files for printing.
./dvips.texi TeX-info format documentation for DVIPS. The texinfo.tex
file must be in your TeX "Inputs" directory for TeX to format this.
(/dd/sys/tex/inputs on my system.) Caveat: This manual contains
some embedded PostScript commands that only make sense if you use
DVIPS to print the file. If you print it with some other program
(such as dvialw), then some of the examples will print out incorrectly.
It's easy enough to re-print the three pages that are incorrect once
you finish getting DVIPS set up.
./INPUTS/DVIPS/test.tex This is a test file for DVIPS. Once you think
you have DVIPS set up, try this file. List the beginning of the file
for instructions. The file exercises DVIPS' capabilities pretty
thoroughly, so it's a good way to check your setup.
