- Installation Instructions for Tex2RTF
- -------------------------------------
-
- Binaries are supplied for Windows 3.1 and for Sun workstations.
-
- If these don't work for you, or you are using a different system, you
- will need to compile Tex2RTF. There are several options for doing this.
-
- (1) GUI version
-
- If you want to have a graphical interface for Tex2RTF
- (not essential for a conversion utility!) then you
- will need to download wxWindows from skye.aiai.ed.ac.uk
- (192.41.104.6) in the directory /pub/wxwin/beta, files
- wx150?_*.tar.Z (or .gz) where ? is the latest beta letter,
- currently i.
-
- On UNIX, you will then need to decide whether you want to produce
- an XView or Motif version (provided you have one of these
- toolkits), and change the makefiles in accordingly,
- in wx/src/x, wx/src/base and wx/utils/tex2rtf/src.
-
- Use the makefile target 'xview' or 'motif' from each of the directories
- wx/src/x and wx/utils/tex2rtf/src.
-
- Under Windows, just type 'nmake -f makefile.dos' if you're
- using a Microsoft-compatible compiler (you'll need to
- change the makefiles or build project files for other compilers.)
-
- (2) Non-GUI version
-
- Under UNIX, simply use the target 'nogui'. The supplied files in the
- src/wxwin directory supply the essential utilities from wxWindows, and
- Tex2RTF will be built as a command-line program.
-
- On a PC, add 'NOGUI=1' to the makefile command line. Note that the small
- amount of memory available under DOS can cause catastrophic crashes for
- large input files, due to the lack of memory checking, so be warned! The
- Windows version is a more sensible choice.
