Subject: OS-specific TeX problems
My previous message (about HP-UX 8.07 and TeX 3.14) was forwarded to the
main list, so the outcome should really appear here as well. As a result
of some investigation and help from Karl Berry, I got hold of
`web-5.851c.tar.Z' and `web2c-5.851c.tar.Z' from `ftp.cs.umb.edu' (also
available, I later discovered from `ftp.tex.ac.uk') and the `readdir/stat'
problem is sidestepped completely by this newer version.
I still think there's a filesystem semantics problem in HP-UX 8.07's
`readdir(3C)' library function---anyone of an OS-philosophical bent care
to take me up on it?
The upshot of all this is that it pays to check that you've got the latest
version. If I'd had a decent bandwidth JIPS connection (coming Real Soon
Now!) I would've found the later version for myself and never seen the
problem.
Sam.

Subject: DOS spell checker
There is a spell checker for DOS now available in the Public Domain.
I've (got my local network guru to) fetched the file. When unpacked
you get an excellent spell-checker and a large dictionary that you
can manipulate. I've been in touch with the author to suggest a few
extensions (I'll allow them the pseudonym "improvements"). The
dictionary is US, so I'm currently working on it to correct the
mistakes (who cares about majority usage?) and to ensure it's got as
many difficult spellings as possible.
One interesting question - how many words should a dictionary contain?
For example, this spell-checker knows australia and australis - would it
be better to delete australis on the grounds that it is more likely to
be a mistyping of australia except in a technical article on early
hominids? Each user can, of course, have a personal supllementary
dictionary.
Second question - does anyone else want to help proof-read the word list?
I've printed it in 4-column format, 9pt on 10.5 and it's 119 pages.

Subject: DVI driver for Interpress (Xerox 4090 or 9790)?
It may be convenient for us to use either a Xerox 4090 or 9790 printing
system to print our TeX stuff. Is there a recommended driver for these
things? As far as I can see they speak Interpress, about which I know
nothing. I had a look through the Aston directory.list file but could
not see anything obvious.
Tghanks in advance,

Subject: VMS TeX distribution
We have a very old version of TeX/LaTeX running on a VAX/VMS cluster
(which I did not install), and which really should be replaced.
Is there an equivalent tape to the 'Washington Unix tape' available
which I can unload, change a few site specifics and type 'make' (or
whatever the VMS equivalent might be) and it all happens? As you
might guess I am not a VMS person.
The only tapes mentioned at the end of UkTeX are one containing TeX 2.99
- - or a copy of the entire archive. The first is out of date and the
second seems over the top: I have a working (and fairly recent) dvips
and pk fonts so all I need is the core TeX/LaTeX distribution.
I realise I could ftp it all from the Archive - but JIPS is suffering
enough as it is, and I would have to make sure I had remembered everything.
This seems like it ought to be a FAQ, but checking the FAQ list gave no
suggestions for VMS that I could see. What have people who have recently
installed TeX on VMS systems done? Or is everyone moving to Unix systems and
so not upgrading their old Vaxes?
thanks for any help

This seems a very reasonable question, and one which we (the Archive group)
should address. You are by no means the first to seek a VMS tape, and I am
sure you willl not be the last. There are several members of the archive
group who use VMS as their primary operating system, and I will see if I can
co-ordinate matters so that we can produce the tape that you and others need.

Subject: emTeX/dvips memory overflows.
I use a standard distibution (PC-286) version of emTeX with dvips,
which I got from your site about twelve months ago. I've just installed
FoilTeX, and built all the extra fonts OK, but on big files with lots
of fonts either TeX going from *.TEX --> *.DVI or dvips going from
*.DVI --> *.Ps can run out of memory.
DO you have any workarounds/parameter tweaks/386 versions which aren't
limited to 640K on the archive? I have an 8Mb 386/7, so that ought to
help if I can find software to use it...

Look in the ...betatest sub-directory of the emTeX hierarchy; there
are both big and 386-specific versions there.

depends what else you do with your 386; if you run windows or the
like, junk that and buy OS/2 intead. If you just sit there with that
8Mb of memory twiddling its thumbs, i suggest that
a) you move over to the emtex386 (beta) distribution which is a big
tex, fast and reliable
b) use dvips386 which you will find in the archive stashed in
[tex-archive.tex.ms-dos.emtex.bonus]dvips386.exe_boo
note that this requires deboo; this is *simply the executable*; all
the support files, and configuration, are up to you from the standard
distribution
if you are on Internet you will find these items faster using Gopher
to the UK TeX Archive Daughter system

Subject: !! change in structure of uk.ac.tex archive!!!
for compatibility with other archives, I have removed the whole tree
[tex-archive.tex-style]
and replaced it with an (updated)
[tex-archive.plain]
under which you should now look for all packages and tex files which
are related to `plain' TeX. Please also now note
[tex-archive.generic]
which contains macros which are *supposed* to work with any form of
TeX. No guarentees
It is likely that at some point in the near future, *all* these macro
packages will migrate down one step, and
[tex-archive.macros]
Apologies for the inconvenience, but it does make it easier to
announce and maintain stuff if people agree on a directory
hierarchy...

Subject: Another Reorganization of uk.ac.tex
To further bring uk.ac.tex into line with some perceived ideal, I
regret to inform our users that I have moved some favourite
directories. All those top-level directories which contain TeX macro
packages have been placed one level down, under [tex-archive.macros].
Please remember this when you look for package recently announced. eg
for
[.latex]
read
[.macros.latex]
the plus side is that the system is now the same as on the daughter
archive accessible via gopher.
the other plus side is that I am going on holiday, so the poor archive
can have some peace for a month or so...

Subject: wrtfile - write text files from TeX
I have placed the following in the uk tex archive in
[tex-archive.latex.styles.contrib]wrtfdisk.tex
sebastian
*******************
X-From: cameron@symcom.math.uiuc.edu (Cameron Smith)
... "wrtfdist.tex", the distribution file for "wrtfile.tex". This
is a short TeX file containing code that allows you to put (for
example)
\FILE abc.def
Mary had a little lamb,
its fleece was white as snow.
\EOF
into a TeX file and have the lines "Mary...lamb," and "its...snow."
written out to a file "abc.def" when the original file is TeXed.
This functionality is identical with that of Jonathan Fine's
"filechop.tex", which was posted to the UKTeX Digest recently
(Volume 92, Issue 37, Friday, 9 Oct 1992). Fine's code is simpler
than mine and executes faster, but its definition of \FILE uses
\EOF as a delimiter to gather up the entire text to be written out
as a parameter. This places potentially severe limitations on the
amount of text that can be written. My implementation uses a loop
to write one line at a time until \EOF is seen, so there is no limit
on the size of files that can be created.
My version also allows you to say "\TYPE" instead of "\FILE <name>",
to have lines written to the terminal and log file instead of to another
file. This is useful for presenting prompts or informatinal messages
in interactive TeX programs.
The file "wrtfdist.tex" itself uses the "wrtfile" code to create "read.me",
"wrtfile.doc", and "wrtfile.tex" when TeXed. Try it out and read the
"read.me" file for more information.
Finally, everyone should feel free to redistribute "wrtfdist.tex",
and to use the code in "wrtfile.tex" to create "package files" like
this one, but archivists please note the redistribtion restrictions:
don't break apart the files and store them separately, put *only*
the package file "wrtfdist.tex" into your archives. Thank you.
Hope this is of use--

Subject: lollipop format in uk tex archive
Victor Eijkhout's long-awaited "lollipop" TeX format has been
released, and is in the UK TeX Archive in
[tex-archive.lollipop]
A summary is appended
sebastian
The Lollipop format tries to bridge the gap between the fact
that in TeX anything is programmable, and the fact that doing so is
too hard for the people such as typographers,
who know actually what to program. Or even for seasoned programmers.
Lollipop is a macro package that gives the user powerful
tools for programming macros for lists, headings, output routines
and a number of other things. The Lollipop macros take the specifications
for a macro, and then construct that macro.
About this release
Lollipop is not finished, but it is already quite powerful.
(It has been used to typeset my book 'TeX by Topic', for instance.)
I suggest that anyone who is interested format the manual
and have a look at the examples in it. They document
the current power of Lollipop (really: all examples,
including of output routines, are formatted on the fly).
Since Lollipop is still under development I will be very
accessible for questions, bug reports and suggestions.
Email preferred: eijkhout@cs.utk.edu.
(And I will be flattered if you actually use Lollipop,
but beware that changes may occur in future versions.)

Subject: Text/Mail merges
I have used a style file for some years to do text merges into LaTeX letters.
I have cleaned this up and made it usable in plain TeX as well. The interface
can be extremely simple---give the text and the fields to read---or quite
complicated---produce tables of arbitrary length with some processing done
on the entries. The other thing is, it needn't be letters you are producing.
It could be the contents of a database that you wish to pretty-print, with
more control over the printing than the databases I have met would allow you.
If you would like to try this style file, it is called TEXTMERG.STY, and is in
[TEX-ARCHIVE.LATEX.STYLES.CONTRIB.TEXTMERG]
together with TEXTMERG.TEX, containing instructions in LTUGBOAT format.

Subject: Answers to problems in LaTeX
On p422 of The TeXbook, DEK explained how he got the answers to his problems
to migrate from their original positions adjacent to those problems into
Appendix A. Having modified these macros for my own use to work in LaTeX,
and supplied a copy to a colleague, somehow they found their way onto the
SHSU archive in this rough and ready form.
I have now introduced some generality into them, and Sebastian Rahtz has put
them in the Aston archive as
[TEX-ARCHIVE.LATEX.STYLES.CONTRIB]ANSWERS.STY
The style file ends with an example of their usage---the only real
documentation at present---but the basic idea is that you say
\begin{xxx}
Text of problem.
\yyy Text of solution.
\end{xxx}%%<--- presently, must be left-justified
where xxx is your own theorem environment, and \yyy is a control sequence
of your choosing, eg, exercise and \solution. You then need to inform
LaTeX of your choice, and tell it what environment name, eg, Solution,
to use in a file of solutions. The style defines a solution-type environment,
starting with text of your choice, followed by the problem number.
At the appropriate moment, eg, after \begin{document} or in an \included
file, you tell LaTeX the filename to use for solutions.
Later, you tell it to close that file. Finally, any file(s) of solutions
you have created can be \included or \input into your document.
There is a facility to pass information through to the solution files, eg,
about a chapter number, and also a mechanism to produce a hint rather than
a solution.
Finally, you probably don't want your problems all to appear in italic.
Thus, a \Noit command is introduced to switch this off easily in a
theorem environment---something not included with LaTeX but more recently
supplied with theorem.sty in NFSS.
eg,
\newtheorem{exercise}{Exercise\Noit}[section]
This is a release which works OK for me. Please make suggestions for
improvements.
