I recently grabbed DVIX off of SIMTEL, a port of an X previewer for
TeX running under DV/X. I am running DV/X 1.02.

I am using the program with the PK fonts, but the program does not
find the fonts. I set the environment variables
DVIX_FONTS=c:/texfonts/pk and FONTLIST=pk, however the program cannot
find the fonts. THe only way to get the program to work is to set the
environment variable DVIX_FONTS=c:/texfonts/pk/dvi300 (i.e. set the
env variable to a particular resolution subdirectory.).

If anyone has been successful in installing the program, would you
kindly let me know a) how you are defining the pk font directory and
environment variable, and b) what switches you use on the command
line. THe documentation is not too helpful (or maybe I am missing
something obvious).

Thanks for any info. By the way, the product appears to be supurb and,
it is wonderful being able to edit in one window while simultaneously
viewing in another!
