This directory contains documentation on the Texinfo system and the TeX

sources needed to process Texinfo sources. (Use texi2dvi to run a
|
|
|
|
|
Texinfo manual through TeX to produce a DVI file.)

The .tex files are not installed automatically because TeX installations
|
|
|
|
|
vary so widely. Installing them in the wrong place would give a false
|
|
|
|
|
sense of security. So, you should simply cp *.tex to the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
place. If your installation follows the TeX Directory Structure
|
|
|
|
|
standard (http://www.tug.org/tds/), this will be the directory
|
|
|
|
|
<texmf>/tex/texinfo/ for texinfo.tex and <texmf>/tex/plain/dvips/ for
|
|
|
|
|
epsf.tex. If you use the default installation paths, <texmf> will be
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/share/texmf. If you have teTeX, you can find <texmf> by
|
|
|
|
|
running:
|
|
|
|
|
texconfig confall | grep \^TEXMF=
|
|
|
|
|
(The configure script tries to do this for you.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can get the latest texinfo.tex from
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/texinfo.tex
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.cs.umb.edu/pub/tex/texinfo.tex
|
|
|
|
|
or on the FSF machines in /home/gd/gnu/doc/texinfo.tex.

If you have problems with the version in this distribution, please check

for a newer version.

|
epsf.tex comes with dvips distributions, and you may already have it
|
|
|
|
|
installed. The version here is functionally identical but slightly
|
|
|
|
|
nicer than the one in dvips574. The changes have been sent to the
|
|
|
|
|
epsf.tex maintainer.
