$Id: INSTALL,v 1.1 1995/03/16 01:18:22 schrod Exp $ ------------------------------------------------------------ These instructions are written for the installation of this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system. (TDS is the forthcoming standard for TeX installations, refer to ftp.th-darmstadt.de:/pub/tex/TDS-compliant/draft/ for more information.) If you don't have such a system, you have to figure out your directory names yourself. If you're on a Unix system and want to use make for installation, read further. Otherwise skip forward to ``MANUAL INSTALLATION''. ------------------------------------------------------------ INSTALLATION BY MAKE: Edit the Makefile and adapt the values of the following variables to your system. Sorry, but the values are not collected at the top of the Makefile, use your editor to locate them. (The Makefile is generated by Imake, I don't touch it... :-) MAKEDIR [Default: mkdir -p] A command to create a directory, including all non-existent intermediate ones. DESTDIR [Default is empty] This is a prefix that's prepended in front of all destination directories, in case your installation structure is somewhere else than your run-time location. INSTALL [Default depends on the machine I generated the distribution] A BSD install program. If you have a System V Unix, and you have X11, you can use a script named bsdinst.sh or bsdinst or install.sh that's located your X11 bin directory. If you don't have a BSD install program, you must use the manual installation, described below. TEXMF [Default: /usr/local/lib/texmf] The root of your (TDS) TeX tree. Now, type "make install" and everything should be OK. ------------------------------------------------------------ MANUAL INSTALLATION: The Imakefile features definitions that look like InstallTeX(,). Copy all to a directory that is appropriate for this and this . (The `Generic' denotes macro files that can be used with many TeX formats, including plain TeX, LaTeX, and AmS-TeX.) The TDS directory names are $TEXMF/tex///, where $TEXMF is your TDS root directory and is all-lowercase. ------------------------------------------------------------ # LocalWords: tex MAKEDIR DESTDIR bsdinst sh usr lib texmf Imakefile AmS # LocalWords: InstallTeX
