X-Gateway-Source-Info: Mailing List

I have released Eplain version 2.2.  It is available by ftp from

  ftp.cs.umb.edu [192.12.26.23]:pub/tex/{eplain/*,eplain.tar.Z}
   ics.uci.edu [128.195.1.1]:TeX/eplain/eplain-2.2.tar.Z

You might also be able to get it by email from George Greenwade's file
server if you cannot ftp: mail fileserv@shsu.edu with a body of
something like `SENDME EPLAIN.EPLAIN_TEX'.

I'm making this release only because it's been over seven months since
the last release, and a number of bug fixes have accumulated.  I haven't
yet incorporated any of the good suggestions people have sent me
(cross-referencing to figures and the like as well as pages and
equations, figuring out the multi-column situation, generalizing toc
files to other kinds of auxiliary files, indexing commands, etc., etc.).
I hope to be able to do that soon.  (I hope to be able to release a lot
of things soon, as always...funny how that never happens.)

Please send bug reports directly to me.

Here is a summary of the most significant changes (from the file NEWS in
the distribution):

* New \toks register \everylist, expanded at the start of every list.

* \footnoterulewidth defined as 2in, not 2true in, thus allowing the use
  of \mag after reading eplain.tex.  The `2true in' was Knuth's, but I
  don't know why he did it.

* \obeywhitespace works inside a \vbox.

* \boxit is \long, and uses \ehrule and \evrule.

* \writenumberedtocentry expands the chapter number, so `\the
  <register>' can be used.

* \verbatim doesn't begin and end with \par, so it can be used in the
  middle of a paragraph.

* \pathafterhook added to \path in path.sty, so macros can execute
  cleanup actions.

* The \path command and its friends are documented in the manual.


For those of you who haven't heard of Eplain: it is a collection of
macros intended to provide relatively low-level capabilities, regardless
of how your document appears.  For example, it has macros to do symbolic
cross-referencing, but not macros to produce a section heading.  It also
has some definitions that make it easier to change the conventions of
plain TeX's output.  For example, it lets you produce left-justified
math displays by simply saying `\leftdisplays'.

since he's looking to use it under UNIX, why not just use ispell?
besides, I'm not sure, but I don't recall amspell coming with the
source in the first place.

no arguments there.  I'd rather have ispell ported to dos, but if you're
looking for a dos-based spelling checker, amspell is a very nice program
(as you say, very similar to ispell).  I'm not sure who mentioned it in
the last few weeks (I think it was in comp.editors), but I'm very happy
that they did....  :-)

I would like to know how to have sections and sub{sub...}sections

Subject: conditions in input-ed files

Distribution: usa
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1992 23:35:04 GMT

Hi all,

    Say I have a small document which will be eventually
input-ed into a larger document. But i would like to
be able to independently tex-ing the small document
without making any changes.

    There are several problems. In the larger document,
there are things like magnification. So is is possible
to write a condition of some sort, so that when the
small document is independently tex-ed, it too has
things like magnification and numbers pages from 1,
but if the small document is input-ed into the
larger document, then the magnification and page number
and such in the small document should not be effective.

    I was trying to do things similar to the enviromental
variables in the C shell and its subshells. 

    In the large document, I say:

        \def\thisisthelargedocument{\true}

Then in the small document, I said,

        \ifx\thisisthelargedocument\true{
        \magnification=\magstep 1
        \pageno = 1
        }\fi

       ... % body of the small document

       \ifx\thisisthelargedocument\true{
       \vfill
       \end
       }\fi

I hope I am clearly stating my problem. The ultimate aim
is to be able to independently tex a small document,
while still be able to input that small document in a
larger document, without making any (or major) changes
to the small document. What I am doing at the present
is to comment out setup things in the small document
before it is included in a larger document. If I want
the independently tex the small document again, I 
uncomment those setup commands. 

    Thanks in advance for any help,

I had a similar problem. You may be using the wrong 'times.sty' file. I
use the PSNFSS stuff which includes, as one of several style files,
times.sty which I produce below. Make sure to use this one and see if
that works.

You can use the normal UNIX-Distribution for TeX and MF
(src-5.851) --- TeX 3.141 + MF 2.71 = 5.851

I have installed a mixed Version for SUN/OS 4.1.x and AIX 3.2.x
only the binaries (and the format-, bases-files --- ??) are different
all other is the same and mounted via NFS. In the near future I will add
the binaries for ApolloDomain (OS 10.3, 10.4) in our mixed network.

If you compile with IBM xlc 1.2.0.0 it is important to compile
*WITHOUT* optimization. I did so, and all is working.

In some programs in "texware" --- pltotf.web, tftopl.web for example ---
is defined "class", but its predefined by xlc 1.2.0.0, so you have to define
@d class==newclass
and all will work.

Happy TeXing,
Stefan

I'm afraid to report, that this new ascreen doesn't run under MiNT. I
checked it yesterday evening and couldnt get it run with MiNT (0.96)
installed. Once I removed MiNT from the auto folder and rebooted with
plain TOS (2.06 on a 68030) it ran just fine.

From what I've seen the program is well worth some additinal effort to
get it run under MiNT.

Stuttgart,       				       Nov 11 1992

Prof. Klaus Lagally, of the Institut fuer Informatik der Universi-
taet Stuttgart, releases version 2.05 of ArabTeX, the set of (La-)
TeX macros for typesetting Arabic, Dari, Farsi, Kurdish, Maghribi, 
Ottoman, Pashto, and Urdu.  There is a new User Manual arabdoc.tex
that serves for local printing and, being formatted in ArabTeX, at 
the same time as a test of your installation.  A hard-copy version 
is available on request (send request to the author and enclose DM 
10, outside Europe US$ 10, to cover printing and mailing expenses).
 
Version 2.05 contains a few minor changes: Vowel marks are aligned 
the same distance from the baseline,  Arabic word emphasis is  now
possible via overlining, splitting of word groups across line boun-
daries may be prevented by enclosure within curly braces, etc.

To get your local version up to date, retrieve the new style files

Incidentally, the copy of a4.sty at our site uses true dimensions to set

of truein and it works with 2up. Is there a reason for a4 using true values ?

SFPtoPK.  From Norm:

    SFPtoPK version 2.1(beta) fixes a small bug in SFPtoPK v2.00.
    If you tried to convert a font that was _both_ small enough
    to fit entirely in memory _and_ had a header shorter than 64
    bytes, SFPtoPK v2.00 would miss the first character in the
    font.  The only fonts that I have seen that have a header
    smaller than 64 bytes are old LJ+ softfonts.  Unfortunately,
    the PCX2FONT program creates this style of header.  My
    apologies for the inconvienience.  If you have any trouble,
    please let me know...

The files are available via e-mail as a 6 part UUENCODEd ZIP archive by
including:
 SENDME SPFONTWARE.SF2PK21B*

The file SF2PK21B.ZIP is available for anonymous ftp retrieval from
Niord.SHSU.edu (192.92.115.8) in the directory [FILESERV.SPFONTWARE].  

The SPFONTWARE package and directory also includes the rest of Norm's

if you type:
	\mathop{T}_{p \in R}

then in DISPLAYSTYLE the expression {p \in R} will be UNDER the T.

Subject: Why large magsteps in lfonts.tex?
Date: 9 Nov 92 16:03:36 GMT
Organization: Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, Cambridge, UK


I recently installed latex on my machine; it came with a copy of lfonts.tex dated
25 November 1991. When printing large fonts, such as are used in \chapter and
\section macros, scaled versions of cmr10 et al. are used. For example, the
title of a chapter is typeset using the \Huge font; \Huge uses the \xxvpt macro
in lfonts.tex, and so cmbx10 scaled\magstep5 is used. Why not use
cmbx12 scaled\magstep5, and for roman type, cmr17 scaled\magstep2 ?

The differences between cmbx10 and cmbx12 at 25 point are noticable; for example,
the dot on an 'i' looks circular in cmbx12, unlike cmbx10 (at 300dpi).

Is there any reason for this, apart from the fact that it has always been so?

Help....
I'm trying to build some fonts on a machine running 386BSD.  I built
METAFONT in the normal fashion, but when I try to build the pk font
cmcsc10 I get the following error..
---------------------------------------------
This is METAFONT, C Version 2.7

(cmcsc10.mf (cmbase.mf) (csc.mf (romanu.mf [65] [66] [67] [68] [69] [70]
.....
[95] [125] [126] [127]) (romsub.mf (sym.mf [12] [11] [60] [62]) [13])
! METAFONT capacity exceeded, sorry [number of strings=264].
l.16 if ligs>0: input comlig
                            ; fi  % ligatures common with italic
--------------------------------------------
... and it just dies
So I rebuilt inimf and virmf and the bases, thinking I might have messed
something up along the way.  Here is the output from the dump when
building the cmmf base
-----------------------------------------------
This is METAFONT, C Version 2.7 (INIMF)
(/usr/local/lib/mf/inputs/cmbase.mf)
Beginning to dump on file cmbase.base

18560 memory locations dumped; current usage is 4670&13837
896 symbolic tokens
Transcript written on cmbase.log.
---------------------------------------------

So I don't know what the problem is. 
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
