Don't D expect any support if you decide to merge this release of LaTeX withB an older version of DirectTeX!  If you have DirectTeX 2.0 or laterA then you will only need to read the following instructions if you A decide to update the version of LaTeX distributed with DirectTeX.   C NOTE: All folder names are relative to your global TeX folder, e.g. I `TeX-Inputs:LaTeX' refers to the folder `{dt_TeXFolder}TeX-Inputs:LaTeX'.      SUMMARY  =======   F This file contains instructions on how to install LaTeX for DirectTeX.D Before reading this file you should read install.txt, which explains0 how the LaTeX installation works in more detail.    The following sections describe:  (  * How to save any old version of LaTeX.  (  * How to unpack the LaTeX distribution.  "  * How to create the LaTeX format.  -  * How to check that the installation worked.     * Removing unnecessary files.     SAVING ANY OLD VERSION OF LATEX  ===============================   E If you have DirectTeX 2.0, you do not have to do anything do save the E old LaTeX 2.09 because it is already located in a folder `LaTeX-2.09' E and not within the `TeX-Inputs' folder, which is normally searched by  TeX.     UNPACKING THE DISTRIBUTION ==========================  ! To unpack the LaTeX distribution:   7  * Delete all files from the `TeX-Inputs:LaTeX' folder.   5  * Move all files in the distribution to this folder.   C  * Start up DirectTeX and set the current directory to this folder.   "  * Execute the following commands:         Set dt_TeXLogFiles ''        TeX -i unpack.ins   @ This will start the unpacking process.  This may take some time:? about 7 minutes on a Quadra 840.  Now move the files `gind.ist' 4 and `gglo.ist' to the folder `Aux-Inputs:MakeIndex'.     CREATING THE LATEX FORMAT  =========================    To create the LaTeX format:   :  * Select `Initialize Formats...' from the `Formats' menu.  -  * Select `LaTeX' or `BigLaTeX' and click OK.   E If you want to create the format manually, simply execute the command          TeX -i latex.ltx  D NOTE: DirectTeX v2.0 does not contain a hyphen.tex file.  Instead itD contains a folder `TeX-Inputs:Hyphenation' which contains some files? `hyphen-??.tex' and a file `hyphen.cfg'.  The latter one may be E used to specify the hyphenation patterns to use.  It is configured to E include the German and the US English hyphenation patterns and to set # the default language to US English.     % CHECKING THAT THE INSTALLATION WORKED % =====================================   & To check that the installation worked:  :  * Set the current directory to the `TeX-LogFiles' folder.    * Execute the command         LaTeX ltxcheck.tex  A This will run a test of the LaTeX installation and should produce A `OK!'  to a number of tests.  If it does not then see `PROBLEMS'   in install.txt.    You have now installed LaTeX!      REMOVING UNNECESSARY FILES ==========================  E After LaTeX has been successfully installed, you might want to delete F some non-essential files (after making backup copies) to free up spaceB on your hard disk.  From the `TeX-Inputs:LaTeX' folder, delete all files ending in:  .    .ins .drv .dtx .fdd .log .aux .txt .err .ps   and the file      Makefile.unx   E You may also look at the files *guide.tex, typeset and print them and = then delete them to save more space. These files contain some 3 information about certain characteristics of LaTeX.     > --- Copyright 1994 Wilfried Ricken and the LaTeX3 project. ---> ---                 All rights reserved.                   ---
