README file for using dvi2tty on VAX/VMS using VAXC Created and submitted as a saveset by: Robert Schneider Internet: robert@perv.pe.utexas.edu Department of Petroleum Engineering BITNET: pefv673@utchpc University of Texas at Austin THEnet: PERV::ROBERT Marcel Mol ---------------------------------- dvi2tty for VAX/VMS This is a version of dvi2tty for VAX/VMS which may be compiled with VAXC and used as a filter for converting the device independent output files produced by TeX to files which may be printed on ASCII terminals or line printers. The original version of dvi2tty was written by Svante Lindahl. The improved C version of dvi2tty on which this port was based was done by Marcel Mol. Only a few minor modifications were necessary to make dvi2tty work under VMS with VAXC. Please see the file README. for further information on the authors and capabilities of dvi2tty. This saveset includes all sources which are necessary to compile and link dvi2tty under VMS using VAXC. Also included in the saveset are object files and images generated from these sources. The command file for building dvi2tty under VMS and the TeX documentation file for dvi2tty were done at The University of Texas at Austin. The TeX documentation file was derived from the Unix man page by tr2tex and then converted to match local documentation styles. Please see the "NOTE ---" comments in the documentation file to make the appropriate modifications for your site. If you need to rebuild the images used, simply execute VMS_VAXC_DVI2TTY.COM.
