(second try) A new version of my port of CommonTeX to the St, known as StTeX (formerly downloadable from terminator and dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu) is now available for anonymous FTP from dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu [129.22.16.2] in ~ftp/pub/atari/StTeX. There are some cosmetic changes and minor speedups, but the included in this distribution is UNDUMP for the atari. undump will let to undump a running virtex, with macros loaded (plain.fmt or lplain.fmt as appropriate), into an executable TeX or LaTeX with macros pre-loaded. This is about a bi-zillion times quicker than going the `virtex &lplain foo' route. Ofcourse, undump is a general utility and can be used to undump other applications, that typically have large static initializations, into executables that have the initializations pre-loaded. (edguer can we please have an undumped GnuEmacs now!). The following files are now available on dsrgsun: in pub/atari/StTeX/ StTeXbin.zoo binaries only (configured for a 1M st) StTeXmac.zoo macros and .fmt files StTeXsrc.zoo complete sources for TeX and utils (including undump) StTeXtfm.zoo font metric files undump.zoo undump source and binary only showdvi.zoo previewer by Robert Stabl (unido!unipas!stabl) this recently was posted in comp.binaries.atari.st thanks Robert! showdvifonts.zoo fairly complete set of font libraries for showdvi stbibtex.zoo bibtex for the ST by Jeff Long. Thanks Jeff! if you need zoo it is in pub/atari/zoo.ttp and pub/atari/zoo_bin.zoo enjoy, -- bang: {any internet host}!dsrgsun.ces.CWRU.edu!bammi jwahar r. bammi domain: bammi@dsrgsun.ces.CWRU.edu GEnie: J.Bammi
