The standard UNIX TeX3.0 distribution seems to compile fine the MIPS C compiler, except for some unreachable statement in tex/tex3.c. However, the result seems to produce one page per word. Is there some trick to this? Thanks, Alex Woo woo@ames.arc.nasa.gov

Since I can't really remember, let me simply advise: a) Run the trip test to REALLY see if you've compiled correctly. b) Make certain that you defined "schar" as "signed char" in site.h. This is important. c) Depending on which release of 'cc' you're using, compiling with -O can break parts of both TeX and Metafont. Try compiling without -O first and check that you pass the trip (& trap) tests. >Thanks, >Alex Woo >woo@ames.arc.nasa.gov -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Laurence G.
