[comp.os.cpm] TeX for CP/M

bwildasi@silver.ucs.indiana.edu (Ben Wildasin) (01/01/91)

Is anyone familiar with TeX implementations for CP/M? If so, what printers
do they support? Also, are there any freely or cheaply available Emacs
editors floating around out there?

Thanks for any help...

Well, I can't remember where I downloaded it, but I have something called
'Small tex' by Mike Meyer (no relation!) circa 1982. I never actually set
it up, but according to its users manual, it does share lots of stuff with
Knuth's Tex. However, rather than using metafonts it apparently uses
Fancy Font(tm) from SoftCraft for output.

This information is offered merely as proof that such a thing does exist.
