Second release of CD-ROM PasTeX ------------------------------- After the first CD-ROM version on Fresh-Fish CD Oct 93, this is now the second release. It's still not the PasTeX 1.4 version, but it includes the newest BETA version os PasTeX 1.4. Whats new against the first CD-ROM version: - New MetaFont version. Now MetaFont 2.71 from Andreas Scherer is included. - More fonts. I've added dc and wasy2 fonts. (dc fonts are new fonts with 256 chars per font) - More font resolutions. Now there are additional 204x196 (FAX) and 600x600 dpi fonts. - Some changes at the CALLMF scripts. - New TeX macros. - New printers in DVIprint.printers. - Includes a BETA version of PasTeX 1.4! PasTeX 1.4 BETA includes new DVIprint, new ShowDVI, brand new SpecialHost, TeX 3.1415 but no new docs. Wait for the real PasTeX 1.4 if you need the docs. - LaTeX2e A complete LaTeX2e version is installed in TeX:macros/latex2e. How to use LaTeX2e: o Rename TeX:config/{Big}TeX.cnf.latex2e to {Big}TeX.cnf (With PasTeX 1.3 you have to use bigvirtex) o Call TeX with "virtex &latex2e yourfile.tex" All LaTeX2e styles are copied to TeX:macros/latex2e/inputs. Acknowledgements: Some peoples I have to say "Thank you!" (without any oder): Bernd Raichle for the initex/virtex C source. Olaf 'Olsen' Barthel for the new SpecialHost. Andreas Scherer for the MetaFont port. Joerg Cyril Hoehle for the help with DVIprint. ...and many many others. Happy TeX'ing, Georg Hessmann (hessmann@Informatik.Uni-Hamburg.DE) 09.06.1994
