I've been poking around trying to get a complete TANGLE / WEAVE /TeX /
Metafont system on my 1040 ST for a few weeks now.  I can supplement it,
when needed, on a VAX where a lot of it is available too.  Now I have a
few 'Where can I get' questions, and one 'Where did I get' one.
   First: this is really eating me--I have a file atari.mf.  I must have 
gotten it either in this newsgroup or from comp.sources/binaries.atari.st.
But when I browse my archive files, I don't see it anywhere.  Does anyone
know where it came from?  (it was one of the files loaded into inimf to
make the plain.bas which I have from cm_mf.arc).
   More seriously:  I can't ftp.  Where do I get dvieps?  Also, would it
be reasonable for someone to post a virtex.ttp and a plain.sty to comp.
binaries.atari.st?
   For what it's worth: TANGLE and WEAVE work fine with Personal Pascal,
using the long integer option and a few rather obvious redefinitions
(text should be called text, not textfile; correct default case).  The
compiler has to be told you want a lot of stack/heap (or is that the linker).
                                    Steve J.
