There was a posting concerning the availability of Chinese support for TeX. When someone here tried to ftp into the system listed as having the ChTeX package, they did not have permission to do an `ls' in the directory they were placed in, either as user `ftp' or `anonymous'. We tried some of the standard dir paths but was not able to find the archive. The listing I have does not include the address of the author or maintainer of the archive for ChTeX. Can someone who has this information get in contact with me? Thanks, Peter Wisnovsky P.S. The following is from the posting I mentioned: ChTeX is a set of macros and fonts for typesetting Chinese under TeX. It only supports PostScript, and requires a modivied dvi2ps. You write your article with PinYin. ftp: 192.12.216.114 (name: chiris.stevens-tech.edu) ftp: note that the usercode is "ftp", not "anonymous". Included are source, fonts, VMS binary for 5.2, DOS binary, etc. -- All opinions expressed are solely my own UUNET: apple!voder!blia!peterw@ames.arc.nasa.gov US Mail: ShareBase Corporation - 1919 Addison Ave. - Berkeley, CA 94704

After getting into the system, you can use "cd" and "ls". The package is in the directory /pub/chinese. For PostScript you need the files ChTeX.tar.Z and dvi2ps.tar.Z. There are also files "cxterm.tar" and chinese-fonts.tar, which are said to support X-window. All the programs are well documented and can be easily installed in different systems. Shaodi Gao
