- * OzTeX users please note: you only need to change the HOME path
- * (and the PASSWORD string after you register with Tom).
- *
- * TeX and Metafont environment variables.
- *
- * The paths given here must be in Unix file system notation.
- * This means that paths are separated by a colon(:) and
- * directories or folder are separated by a slash(/).
- * A period(.) stands for the current directory and on the
- * Macintosh this will be the folder containing the dvi (or whatever) file
- * which is being converted. All absolute paths must begin
- * with a slash(/). All other paths are relative and begin with
- * a period(.), i.e., they are paths relative to the current
- * directory. The current directory usually expands to the name
- * of the folder containing the file being processed.
- * A tilde(~) is a wild card character that expands
- * to the value of the HOME variable. In Unix HOME is set by
- * the shell to be the home directory, but on the Macintosh
- * there is no "home" folder so you can set HOME to be anything
- * you wish, as long as it is an absolute path.
- * If a path ends with two slashes(//), all the
- * subfolders of the given path will also be searched.
- *
- * Unlike Unix, directory or folder names and file names may
- * contain spaces. However, these names may not contain an
- * asterisk(*).
- *
- * Any line beginning with an asterisk(*) is a comment line and
- * is ignored by the reading program. Every other line must begin
- * with one of the environment variable names, followed by
- * a space, and then the path associated with that variable.
- * A path may be continued on the next line if you type
- * a back-slash '\' immediately before the return key
- * and continuing the path immediately on the next line.
- * A variable can be "turned off" by putting an asterisk(*)
- * before the variable name or by deleting the variable
- * entirely from this file.
- *
- *
- * PASSWORD is the variable which dismisses the numerous dialog boxes
- * reminding you to register your copy of CMacTeX 2.3. The correct value
- * for this variable will be sent to you via e-mail when you send in your
- * registration fee.
- *
- PASSWORD abcdefghi#0000000
- *
- *
- * HOME can be set to anything. A tilde(~) in any other path
- * will expand to the value of HOME.
- *

- * The next entries allow the user to customize the Transfer Menu
- * in tex. This menu allows you to simply launch or bring an already
- * opened application to the front. Whatever appears between the double
- * quotes will be an entry in the Transfer Menu. A Command Key equivalent
- * may be designated with a /. When you select an entry from the Transfer
- * Menu the application whose full Unix path is given here will either be
- * launched or brought to the front.

- * If you want smalltex or bigtex to launch your editor and display the
- * file containing an error reported by TeX when you type an 'e' at a ? prompt,
- * you must define the variable Editor.

- * If you want TeX to automatically launch dvipreview when it successfully
- * processes a file, set AUTOVIEW to 1 or else set it to 0.
- *
- AUTOVIEW 1

- * TeX and MF will display the full pathname of each file they try to open
- * if DEBUG is set to 1. This feature can be used to debug your installation.
- * The output is stored in a file, e.g., smalltex.log in the same folder as
- * the application.
