- ========================================
-
- IMPORTANT NOTICE:

- chars. The Zip files must be unpacked into a directory that allows this.

- can get the latest versions of these programs at:
-

-
- The latest versions at the time of writing are provided in rafs113.zip
- and longfiles207.arc
-
- Be sure to use a dearchiver which uses / as the extension separator.
- InfoZip does this as does the !SparkPlug which is provided in splug.bas.
- It a self-extracting archive, set the filetype to BASIC and run it.
-
- These are the files currently distributed with armTeX:

- fetched the distribution once. See the file armtex-patch.txt

-
- latex.zip
- LaTeX2e in a preinstalled version.

- in base.zip.

- system.

- To get TeX up and running you need base.zip, dviview.zip and some fonts,

- lowmemory.zip also. armTeX will not run in less than 4MB.
