Subject: [9fans] TeX: need feedback
Date: Mon, 26 Apr 2010 10:29:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100426082945.GA12445@polynum.com> (raw)

Hello,

For the moment, I had only one feedback from James Chapman (OK once the
trailing space in $(uname) result was handled.

I would like to have more, specially on two points:

1) Non i386 arch.

2) LaTeX OK.

The time to finish cleaning and adapting dvips(1) in kerTeX, if you have
a working one, there should be strictly no problem to convert a dvi
produced by kerTeX to a postscript with an "alien" dvips(1).

I have made so that, except for man pages, kerTeX is installed aside and
should not wreak havoc an existing *TeX installation. (The man pages
will overwrite existing ones; but if these are current Web2c, since they
redirect to texinfo, it is not a loss, but a gain...)

Schedule is dvips(1) in first half of May---I must go back intensively
on "program-to-get-money-to-be-able-to-eat" for now.
