1 | Installation Instructions for Tex2RTF |
2 | ------------------------------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | Binaries are supplied for Windows 3.1 and for Sun workstations. | |
5 | ||
6 | If these don't work for you, or you are using a different system, you | |
7 | will need to compile Tex2RTF. There are several options for doing this. | |
8 | ||
9 | (1) GUI version | |
10 | ||
11 | If you want to have a graphical interface for Tex2RTF | |
12 | (not essential for a conversion utility!) then you | |
be5a51fb | 13 | will need to download wxWidgets from skye.aiai.ed.ac.uk |
9a29912f JS |
14 | (192.41.104.6) in the directory /pub/wxwin/beta, files |
15 | wx150?_*.tar.Z (or .gz) where ? is the latest beta letter, | |
16 | currently i. | |
17 | ||
18 | On UNIX, you will then need to decide whether you want to produce | |
19 | an XView or Motif version (provided you have one of these | |
20 | toolkits), and change the makefiles in accordingly, | |
21 | in wx/src/x, wx/src/base and wx/utils/tex2rtf/src. | |
22 | ||
23 | Use the makefile target 'xview' or 'motif' from each of the directories | |
24 | wx/src/x and wx/utils/tex2rtf/src. | |
25 | ||
26 | Under Windows, just type 'nmake -f makefile.dos' if you're | |
27 | using a Microsoft-compatible compiler (you'll need to | |
28 | change the makefiles or build project files for other compilers.) | |
29 | ||
30 | (2) Non-GUI version | |
31 | ||
32 | Under UNIX, simply use the target 'nogui'. The supplied files in the | |
be5a51fb | 33 | src/wxwin directory supply the essential utilities from wxWidgets, and |
9a29912f JS |
34 | Tex2RTF will be built as a command-line program. |
35 | ||
36 | On a PC, add 'NOGUI=1' to the makefile command line. Note that the small | |
37 | amount of memory available under DOS can cause catastrophic crashes for | |
38 | large input files, due to the lack of memory checking, so be warned! The | |
39 | Windows version is a more sensible choice. | |
