- The question was bound to the Coherent System. There are a lot of Coherent
- users which do their text processing under MSDOS/OS2 with programs like
- Word and have got no EmTex installed. The original question was:
- How to process texinfo-Files *under Coherent*?
- And in this context your answer(s) are not very useful (the later solution
- with *roff* was it, just to make the difference clear).
-
- That Coherent can access DOS-Partitions is common knowledge but Coherent
- can not execute programs DOS-Programs, esp. not EmTex.
- And even if you try to process the texinfo-files under EmTex (and DOS/OS2)
- you might run into some other problems. So the knowledge of some TeX-Books might
- not help :-{.
- You got what I mean?
-
- But I think lets stop here. And the advise for the future should be:
- Think, before posting.
