- EmTeX is available on the ftp-os2.nmsu.edu server. You will want to
- use the 386 version of TeX that runs fast under OS/2 2.0. Although
- still called a beta, it has been out for a long long time and I have
- never encountered a problem with it. There is a great previewer too
- for OS/2. It comes with the Emtex package and is called dvipm. The
- latest revision is 1.4s I believe. It will run at the resolution of
- your desktop.
-
- Since you are new to OS/2, you should download the file 00Index from
- ftp-os2 in /pub/os2 and see all the stuff they have... it is extensive
- and growing fast.
