[comp.text.tex] Installing dvips...

sluder@laser1.engr.utk.edu (John C. Sluder) (06/07/91)

I want to install dvips on a Sparc2.  I ftp'ed to Stanford for the files and noticed there are the following files:

	dvips.ps.Z
	dvips54.tar.Z
	dvips547.tar.Z
	dvipsafm.tar.Z
	dvipslib.tar.Z

I got the ps file (user's manual), but I'm not sure whether I need all the others or just certain ones.  We are quite pressed for disk space, and I don't have room to get everything and uncompress it, decide what to keep, etc..

Any information, installation tips, etc., would be greatly appreciated.  Sorry if this is old business in this group, but I'm new here.

Both posted replies and email are fine, whichever you prefer.

Many thanks!
