I'm running Euro-OzTeX on a Mac Classic II with 4Mb RAM, and it's great. I actually prefer the output on a StyleWriter to that on a LaserWriter. Euro-OzTex is a slight re-packaging of OzTeX by Yannis Haramboulos and others. It is available by FTP from ftp.cicb.fr (IP 129.20.128.2) directory gut/EuroOzTeX . I don't think the Metafont in either OzTeX or Euro-OzTeX will work on a Classic -- the former requires MPW, and the latter a floating-point chip. But of course Metafont is not necessary for TeX/LaTex. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: tim@maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
