Archive-name: xtex/v2.15 Original-posting-by: grunwald@foobar.colorado.edu (Dirk Grunwald) Archive-site: foobar.colorado.edu [128.138.243.105] Reposted-by: emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti) Version 2.15 of the xtex previewer is on expo.lcs.mit.edu & foobar.colorado.edu. The complete package, SeeTeX-2.15.tar.Z is needed if you've never installed xtex before. Changes: + display postscript code cleaned up greatly. Doesn't cause as much server bloat. Still only useful under DEC Display Postscript (that I know of). Still only handles \psfig specials (because that's what I use). + significantly faster display speed for some servers; someone pointed out to me that GXcopy is mucho faster than e.g, GXor. On a color SparcStation-1, this makes xtex go from tolerable to terrific (I wondered what the problem was). For monochrome servers, it's not so noticable (couldn't tell a thing on the decstation). + minor improvements for printing suggested by people. Still: no documentation. Someday.
