0. Send a mail with subject "send index" to tuglib@science.utah.edu on BITNET or get the file "TEX-3P0.TXT" from science.utah.edu/pub to understand what is going on. 1. Get the following large files on a saturday afternoon (the dvips driver rotates, inserts figures and uses ps fonts) labrea.stanford.edu (3 Jun 1990) /pub: -rw-r--r-- 1 ftp 215 Feb 15 15:19 dvips.README -rw-r--r-- 1 ftp 188571 Dec 2 1989 dvips421.tar.Z (for tex2.9) -rw-r--r-- 1 ftp 103533 Feb 27 17:30 dvips502.tar.Z (for tex3.0) -rw-r--r-- 1 ftp 25079 Jun 1 14:19 dvips502pc.tar.Z -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 Jun 2 03:00 ls-lR.Z <----usefull /pub/tex/web2c: total 1992 -rw-r--r-- 1 root 1518941 Apr 1 08:18 web-5.0b.tar.Z -rw-rw-r-- 1 root 494325 Apr 21 16:53 web2c-5.0c.tar.Z 2. Ask for the 100 line file of modifications needed to compile at SR10.1 and support the GPR display from me. Appended will be 300 line of log for the triptrap test. You will need 20 megs free and some hours. 3. You may get the 2.95 files from tuglig or cs.toronto.edu/pub/TeX, among others, but this 20 megs! ================================================================================ ========= for name in web tex texware mf mfware fontutil bibtex; do (cd ${name}; echo ${ name};\ /bin/time make CC="cc" OPT="-O -A cpu,3000" LDFLAGS="" wlibs="" all); do ne web 1023.2 real 841.6 user 75.4 sys tex 1465.7 real 1130.4 user 73.1 sys texware 976.4 real 606.0 user 53.9 sys mf 1195.1 real 884.0 user 75.8 sys mfware <= The optimiser had 2397.2 real 2065.7 user 53.8 sys some pains here fontutil with some large 2078.5 real 1208.0 user 101.2 sys switch statements bibtex 400.7 real 227.7 user 23.7 sys ================================================================================ ========= As you can see below, everybody but APOLLO and Amiga has done it.
