Hi. Are there any programs out there that will let me preview TeX dvi files using Tektronics grahics emulation? That's what kermit emulates and I would like to preview TeX stuff when I dial up to the school computers from home or my dorm room. I'm looking for a program that is UNIX compatible that I can install on the mainframes here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. --- Pedro Quien? peter@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu Peter K. Wu

Version 2.? and some patches thereto are in the c.s.misc archives on various systems (including uunet via both ftp and 1-900-GOT-SRCS). ++Brandon -- Me: Brandon S.

While all the above is true, what I really meant was dvi2vdu, C version 2.??, which is also in the archives. (There is no version 3.0 extant or planned, as far as I know.) G*d, I love it when I do dumb things like that. ++Brandon -- Me: Brandon S.
