- This is HyperTeXview-3.0l-kp0.25, compiled quad-FAT for NEXTSTEP 3.x.
-
- HyperTeXview-kp is a version of TeXview with HyperTeX features, support for
- multiple documents, and kpathsearch support. It's intended for use with
- teTeX-0.4, though it may also work with other TeX distributions.
-
- HyperTeXview-3.0l-kp0.25 is based on the last official TeXview by
- Tom Rokicki, here referred to as TeXview-3.0l. HyperTeXview was done
- by Dmitri Linde and Mark Doyle. The kpathsearch support was added by
- Gregor Hoffleit.

-
- INSTALLATION:
-
- To avoid trouble and side effects caused by old TeX binaries, you may
- want to remove your old TeX installation. Otherwise you have to make sure
- that teTeX binaries are found first.
-
- Install teTeX-0.4. Make sure that teTeX's binaries are in the path of the
- csh (!!!) on your system (independent on your login shell, TeXview-kp will
- use the csh to look up the path of your teTeX installation).
-
- As described in teTeX's INSTALL.bin, there are two ways to make the teTeX
- binaries visible to your shell:
-
- a) insert the path of the binaries (e.g. /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mab-nextstep3
- or /usr/local/teTeX/bin) to the path variable in your csh profile.
- This could be done in /etc/cshrc.std (global) or in your personal
- .cshrc. If you may have old TeX binaries floating around on your system,
- it's wise to put the teTeX directory in front of all others in the path.
-
- b) Make symbolic links from all teTeX binaries into a well-known directory
- (i.e. a directory that's in csh's PATH). Good choices may be
- /usr/local/bin (global installation) or ~/Unix/bin (if set in .cshrc).
- DON'T MOVE OR COPY THE FILES!
-
- Finally, put TeXview in an Apps directory, e.g. /LocalApps (global) or
- ~/Apps. You may be better off if you remove any old TeXview version, e.g.
- from /NextDeveloper/Demos.
-
-
- COEXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE TEXVIEWS WITH TETEX:
-
- With teTeX-0.4, you can explicitely choose the TeXview program that shall
- be called when executing "tex -v". There's a variable IPCSERVERCMD that
- controlls the launch of the previewing application. Its default value
- is
- open `which TeXview`
-
- This can be overriden by setting an environment variable IPCSERVERCMD,
- e.g. for in a zsh (note the escapes!):
-
- export IPCSERVERCMD="open \`which HyperTeXview\`"
-
- or by adding a line to texmf.cnf, e.g. (note: no quotes!)
-
- IPCSERVERCMD = open `which HyperTeXview`
-
- would start up the first version of HyperTeXview that can found in Workspace's
- LaunchPath (not the PATH!). This feature is not yet very well tested, make
- your own experiences ;-). The correct quoting of the command is very
- important!
