As far as I know there is a public version of TeX for the ST, available via ftp at clio (35.195.16.14). Is anyone aware of a server on the UUCP or BITNET holding this implementation of TeX ? Perhaps someone would be willing to post it to 'netlib@lakesys.UUCP' or to 'listserv@canada01' on the BITNET ?

It does -not- have the DVIST screen previewer or anything to let you print DVI files on either an Epson or a laser printer. The read-me files along with these mention repeatedly that DVIST and the Epson printer program are both available "elsewhere". Could someone please explain where I might find these? Without either a DVI viewer or a printer driver, TeX on a ST is a bit useless, since you have to upload your DVI file to another system to print it or read it. You might just as well upload the TeX file and TeX it there... -- James "Kibo" Parry userfe0n@rpitsmts (bitnet) userfe0n%mts.rpi.edu@itsgw.rpi.edu (internet) or try address above (fatchance) #! rnews 980 Path: psuvm.bitnet!cunyvm!nyser!itsg

Check again when you have the opportunity, DVIST is online on clio. I have
not seen a DVI->Epson driver yet, but I will make it available as soon as
I get hold of one.

We wrote DVIST - TeX dvi previwer for the atari st -- GEM version.TZ We wrote DVIEPS- TeX dvi printer for the Atari st -- OS/9 version. The DVIST program will be shortly released. It supports windows and is quite interactive. The DVIEPS will be released iff there is enough demand, since we have to recompile it under GEM. Both programs require some fonts. The DVIST software requires about 6 discs (DS DD) and DVIEPS requires 9 discs (DS DD). Avy Moise -- Avygdor Moise, York University. (C.R.E.S.S.), Petrie Bldg.
