- Here is the installed TeX & Metafont hierarchy (as of 4sep94) that
- we have been working on. Please send comments to mackay@cs.washington.edu,
- unixtex@u.washington.edu, and kb@cs.umb.edu.
- (Especially if you try to actually install TeX like this!)
-
- First, pick a root directory for the library files:
- TEXMF = /usr/local/lib/texmf
-
- (Or, in make variable terms: $(datadir)/texmf.)
-
- All the files are installed relative to $TEXMF. Top-level directories:
- bibtex -- bib/*.bib, bst/*.bst
- doc -- bibtex/, fontname/, eplain/, ...
- fonts -- see below
- tex -- see below
- mf -- utility MF sources
- ({plain, expr, null, io, slant, modes, ...}.mf)
- ini -- .base, .fmt, .pool
- dvips -- only if you have a PostScript printer, naturally
-
- In general, where possible, the same setup as ctan is clearly a win.
-
- Under dvips, have the .pro/.ps/psfonts.map files.
-
- Under tex, at least:
- plain ({plain, manmac, null, plain, story, testfont, webmac}.tex,
- perhaps also texinfo.tex, eplain.tex, other single-file sources)
- latex (with subdirectories base/ for M&S's files,
- misc/ for one-file styles, and other distributions by directory)
- tugboat (tugboat.cmn, tugboat.sty, etc.)
- mft (*.mft)
-
- Under fonts:
- <source>/<typeface>/
- for <source> in public, adobe, ams, bitstream, urw, ...
- for public/<typeface> in cm, concrete, punk, ...
- for ams/<typeface> in euler, symbols, ...
- for adobe/<typeface> in times, palatino, avantgar, ...
- See the *.map files in fontname 2.0 for canonical directory names.
-
- Under .../<source>/<typeface>/
- src/*.mf
- tfm/*.tfm
- vf/*.vf
- afm/*.afm
- pk/$MAKETEX_MODE (including pseudo-modes for gsrenderfont, ps2pk, gsftopk)
- type1/*.{pfa,pfb,gsf}
- truetype/*.ttf
-
- See the TeX directory structure node in the manual for an additional
- complication with MAKETEX_MODE.
-
- For example:
- texmf/fonts/public/cm/pk/cx/cmr10.300pk
- texmf/fonts/public/sauter/src/b-cmbx.mf
- texmf/fonts/adobe/utopia/type1/putr.pfa
-
-
- For default path values, see texmf.cnf[.in].
