[comp.text.tex] How can I enlarge emTeX's tie-size?

rcbatg@rwc.urc.tue.nl (Tonnie Geraets) (11/09/90)

In fact the subject says it all, but here is why I wnat to know:

I want to use dutch hyphenation-patterns with emTeX (TeX and LaTeX).
Therefor I tried to make two new formats: ntex and nlatex.
To make these with initex (tex -i), I had to specify an extra parameter to
enlarge the memeory for the patterns ( -mt13000 ).
After I did that initex ran without an error.

But trying to run normal tex/latex with these formats, I get the message:
'Must increase the trie size'.

I hope somebody (Eberhard ?) can help me.

PS: There exists a smaller set of dutch hyphenation-patterns, but I
observed relative many errors with relative simple (and frequently used)
words, so they are kind of unusable.

I don't know emTeX, but from what you are writing the -mt
option specifies the trie-size. Do I understand correctly
that you ran initex as 
  tex -i -mt13000
? If so you should run TeX with the same trie parameter:
  tex -mt13000
