Your RAM memory seems sufficient to run PasTeX V1.3's utilities (i.e.,
MetaFont, ShowDVI, DVIprint, virtex, etc.).  As far as I am aware, PasTeX
will run on any Amiga (I am using an A3000, however).  As for disk space, I
would suggest about 15 megabytes.  The documentation says a maximum of 10
megabytes, but those font files (if you keep them on your hard disk) take up
some room!  My PasTeX files currently use 23K+ blocks (about 11.7
megabytes); however, I keep all the archives files on my hard disk too.  I
am sure you can get by with 10 megabytes; the question is, how quick will
document processing be?

As for Amiga .DVI files being compatible with other machines' .DVI files, I
have no idea since I have not tried this yet.  Also, I do not have the
commercial version of TeX for the Amiga, so I cannot comment on it.

Hope this helps,

Lon

Does anyone know what happened to the author of oSnap?  He has seeminly fallen
off the face of the Earth (or is just ignoring me :)  I fingered his account
quite some time ago.. my mail appeared on his account for a short period, and
then his box showed empty later... it was either being forwarded or read.

I LOVE oSnap because of the way you can snap tons of lines, and then select
which to spit out by a requestor if you choose.  If it was stable and you
could save your prefs from 2.04, I'd pay the guy for it!

It will print Postscript in landscape mode, to a file or to an attached

Organization: University of NC at Charlotte
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1993 00:27:01 GMT

I have heard roomers about being able to run WB3 on pre-aga systems and that CBM
had re-written all of the graphics code to make graphic operations on these ECS
machines faster.

First of all, is this true?

If so, does it just speed up things like Animations, or painting programs, or
intuition windows, or any graphic operation whatsoever?  This is of course
under the assumption that anything the Amiga displays is graphic.

Second, whats the likelyhood(sp?) of CBM actually releasing this as an upgrade
to 2.1?

If they do, would it include a new SuperKickStart for my A3000?  I don't want to
have to change any chips... I like my A3000 to be able to upgrade OS without
having to buy a new chip every time.

That's exactly the point.  A typical magazine ad/review takes
2 to 3 months.  Unless a company knows that they will be producing 
version X in 3 months, they are forced to send version X-N
to the printer...
 
A new update before the ad means "REALLY quick" updates.

Good ol' DPaint bites again :)
Go look for a group of anim-oriented tools commonly uploaded under
the name "CryoUtils". One of the tools in the archive should be
AnimBuild. Nice interface, just feed it a target .anim file name
and then click on the files you want to add to an .anim file in the
order you want them to appear. The only downside of AnimBuild is
that its interface vanishes as soon as you tell it the name of
your last IFF file and that it should start building. Thus you 
have to watch your drive lights, or constantly LIST the directory
it's building the anim in to know when it has finished the task.
Other than that, an excellent little proggie :)

If your .anim needs are vast, you may wish to consider Cryo's
commercial package AnimWorkshop, marketed by Axiom, the dudes who
also created Pixel 3D (Pro). Lots and lots of .anim oriented features
and it will even converse directly with ASDG's ADPro for scaling
and such.

It's very possible to view GIF images on the Amiga. While IFF is the Amigas
native graphics format. GIF has become a standard file format and can be  
displayed on the Amiga. There are several PD/Shareware programs which can
be obtained almost anywhere and there are many commercial programs which allow
for viewing and editing of GIF pictures.

Please use my new version of CallMF (and TeXRexx) they have better
instructions. So long use setenv and set the enviroment variabel CALLMF
to MakeTeXFont.rexx (this script should be in Rexx:). If MF is installed
propperley everything will work.
