The
Plan
9
documentation
is
in
troff;
however,
TeX
has
been
compiled
and
brought
up
under
the
ANSI/POSIX
Environment
(APE).
It
is
a
separate
package
from
the
main
distribution
due
to
its
size.
The
TeX
distribution
can
be
found
in
/n/sources/extra/tex.iso.bz2
This
is
a
TeX
distribution
that
uses
the
kpathsearch
modifications;
the
main
library
tree
is
kept
in
/sys/lib/texmf.
DVIPS
The
Plan
9
TeX
installation
defines
three
dvips
printer
drivers
(to
use
with
dvips
-Pdrivername):
ps,
psfonts,
and
bitmapfonts.
The
appropriate
driver
to
use
depends
on
the
intended
use
of
the
output.
-
The
ps
driver
(the
default)
generates
Postscript
files
with
references
to
the
Postscript
versions
of
any
TeX
fonts.
These
fonts
are
kept
in
subdirectories
of
/sys/lib/postscript/font.
The
files
are
small,
are
generated
quickly,
and
work
well
with
page(1)
and
lp(8),
but
since
the
Postscript
versions
of
the
TeX
fonts
are
not
commonly
installed
elsewhere,
they
are
not
particularly
good
for
giving
to
friends
or
posting
on
web
pages.
-
The
psfonts
driver
generates
Postscript
files
with
reference
to
the
Postscript
versions
of
the
TeX
fonts,
and
also
includes
the
fonts
in
the
Postscript
file.
The
files
are
fairly
large,
generated
quickly,
and
are
attractive
when
viewed
in
Postscript
previewers
or
turned
into
PDF
via
Acrobat
Distiller.
-
The
bitmapfonts
driver
is
equivalent
to
the
default
on
most
dvips
systems.
Bitmap
versions
of
the
TeX
fonts
are
included
in
the
output
files,
making
them
larger
than
`ps'
but
smaller
than
`psfonts'
files,
slow
to
generate,
and
not
particularly
attractive
when
viewed
on
screen.
ADDING SUPPORT FOR OTHER LANGUAGES
To
add
hyphenation
patterns
for
other
languages,
do
the
following.
-
Uncomment
the
desired
language
patterns
in
/sys/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat
cd /sys/src/cmd/tex/web2c/tex
rm *.fmt
mk install-fmt
It
gives
errors
saying
that
a
file
is
too
old.
Go
to
the
file
and
change
the
date
from
1999
to
200x.
Repeat.
