CTAN now contains the latest version 2.1 of
PubliC TeX/METAFONT/MetaPost and the Dos-TP versions of the
utilities:
assumes TDS (TeX directory structure), functionality similar to
that of web2c/kpathsea
run-time support (some basic tex, tfm, ... files, doc files)
source (requires TP compiler) with unix make like utilities
to generate and install programms
executables
NO formats etc., those have to be generated
CTAN location:
systems/msdos/dos-tp/README
systems/msdos/dos-tp/run/run*.zip run-time support
systems/msdos/dos-tp/run/src*.zip sources
systems/msdos/dos-tp/run/exe*.zip precompiled executables
changes against previous version 2.0
new includes BibTeX, MetaPost, mpware,
and a (still somewhat incomlete) beta test version of eTeX
many programs can now read files in unix format (e.g. mounted
as network drives via nfs, or ...)
small executables named tex, plaintex, latex,
that invoke virtex with a fixed default format (plain, latex)
or a default format read from the first line of the top-level
input file; same for MF and MP.
