- I'm running Euro-OzTeX on a Mac Classic II with 4Mb RAM,
- and it's great.
- I actually prefer the output on a StyleWriter
- to that on a LaserWriter.
-
- Euro-OzTex is a slight re-packaging of OzTeX
- by Yannis Haramboulos and others.
- It is available by FTP from
- ftp.cicb.fr (IP 129.20.128.2)
- directory gut/EuroOzTeX .
-
- I don't think the Metafont in either OzTeX or Euro-OzTeX
- will work on a Classic -- the former requires MPW,
- and the latter a floating-point chip.
- But of course Metafont is not necessary for TeX/LaTex.
