Summary: covingtn.sty, covingtn.tex
Date: 12 Oct 92 20:23:02 GMT
Organization: AI Programs, University of Georgia, Athens

A set of macros for linguistics, including support for:
 - numbered examples
 - glossed sentences (words in one language lined up over words in another)
 - feature structures
 - discourse representation structures
is available by ftp from aisun1.ai.uga.edu, directory /ai.tex. 
The style file is covingtn.sty and the documentation is covingtn.tex.

Thanks to all who helped me debug these macros over the last few days.
Thanks especially to Marcel van der Goot, whose "gloss" macro is subsumed
here (and adapted into LaTeX).

These two have been on DECUS tapes; TUG also distributes (sells) lsedit for

Subject: \mathaccent question
Organization: DSG, Stanford University, CA 94305 USA
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 92 10:24:28 GMT

I'm trying to use TeX with a complicated vector notation that 
requires unusual accent characters.  My professor wants to represent 
the derivative taken with respect to time not with dots, but with a 
letter or letters indicating the reference frame the vector is in.  
Complicating things a bit is the need for superscripts, subscripts
and bars on most of the vectors.

As a result, I need something that would look like the following:

         PP                                              
       ------
        \  / A-0                
         \/
         /\        
        /  \ P

I've tried using \mskip and \raise, but that's not working out nicely,
and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to generate a 
\mathaccent similar to \dots and \ddots, but using characters like
"p" and "i" and whatnot instead of the dots themselves.

Of course, a good solution that doesn't use \mathaccent would also
be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks, this was very helpful, the following works nicely:

  % Define \myfont
  \batchmode
  \font\myfont=cmr12					% 1st choice
  \errorstopmode
  \ifx\myfont\nullfont 					% If not there...
	\font \myfont=cmr10 at 12pt			% 2nd choice
  \fi
  % Use it!
  \myfont
  ...

Needless to say you can adapt this for more complicated prefernces.

Hi,

sorry to be unnerving, but due to a reorganization, all our old news articles
were lost, so I couldn't read the thread (LaTeX to MS Word and other filters)
in comp.text.tex.

The problem is: that's exactly what our secretary needs, a filter from TeX/
LaTeX to MS Word. I'd be grateful if some kind soul could send me the older
articles of this thread or a pointer to a FAQ - or even a pointer to where I
can get such filter. No flames please, it wasn't my fault that all the
articles before October 10 were lost at our site.

Greetings & thanks in advance,

	Hanno

1.  Exactly what are virtual fonts?

2.  Berthold Klaus Paul Horn wrote once that fonts vary greatly in
their encodings, and he said something about different Computer Modern
Roman fonts even having different encodings.  That really puzzled me,
so I wrote for clarification, but received no reply.  Mark Choi, among
others, has asked me for explanations of Virtual Fonts, so this seems
to be an almost FAQ.  No, it's not an actual FAQ, so perhaps a pointer
to the answer ought to be in the FAQ.

In any case, who can and will explain?  Fibrous answers for the
mathematically literate to digest are welcome.  :-)

The FLOAT package allows you to create new types of floats (like "algorithm"
or "program") in addition to the standard Latex ones. In addition,
the package can "boxify" the contents of the float, put a header at the
top (see the tables in Graham, Knuth, and Patashnik's CONCRETE MATHEMATICS),
or plain. It also numbers the new floats and contains the macros for
listing the new floats in a table of contents. Very useful.

The FLOAT package (requires doc.sty and docstrip from Mainz) can be
retrieved by sending mail to fileserv@shsu.edu, and placing the words

SENDME FLOAT

in the message body.

Like others who've written on the net,
I'm eternally grateful to washington

However, I'm not really clear what their function is now.
What exactly _is_ the Unix TeX project?
The day of tapes must be nearly over;

namely the web2c stuff, 
is available from Karl Berry's site (ftp.cs.umb.edu).
Stuttgart (ftp.uni-stuttgart.de) appears to be the only place for LaTeX stuff,
as no-one else seems able to keep up with the changes there(?).
And Stanford (labrea.stanford.edu) still seems the place for the basic DEK TeX stuff.

You are defining a command inside a command--this requires a \def with ##1.
However, your code won't work anyway. Read the LaTeX manual, page 166, then
try 
\documentstyle{article}

\newenvironment{example}%
{\refstepcounter{equation}%
\begin{list}{(\theequation)\hfill}%
{\setlength{\listparindent}{0pt}%
%%\def\makelabel##1{##1\hfil}%

\item%

The standard postscript driver from Rokicki, dvips, understands tpic
specials, if I recall correctly. You could then use ghostscript to translate
the output from dvips to the HP laserjet.

If you can tolerate the restrictions, there is the emulator included in the
eepic macros. The emulator doesn't use specials, but it can't do everything.

Well, many of the best tools seem to be available for postscript. Get 
ghostscript.

dvips 5.490 for OS/2 1.x--2.0 and MSDOS is on ftp-os2.nmsu.edu in 
pub/os2/all/emtex/. In addition, you will need the support files from Sinha's
OS/2 2.0 port in pub/os2/2.0/emtex/.

Get ghostscript for MSDOS at simtel20.army.mil in pd1:<msdos.postscript>.
Start with gs252286.zip (or gs252386.zip if you have a 386) and gs252ini.zip.

The time I get for my PC are nearly the same as the NeXT.  109.5 seconds
total; 4.51 pages/second.  This is for a 486 DX2 50 processor on an
ISA bus with 8M RAM and 64k cache RAM running emTeX (tex386 beta 8).
