A few days ago I picked up the latest LaTeX distribution from
labrea.stanford.edu and tryed to install it on a Macintosh running
OzTeX. Here are the details:
* Macintosh LC with 4Mb memory
* OzTeX 1.42 with the following memory parameters taken from the
configuration file (range of allowable values in parentheses):
mem_max = 65534 (mem_top..65534)
font_max = 255 (1..255)
font_mem_size = 27000 (8..65535)
max_strings = 5000 (1300..16382)
string_vacancies = 20000 (0..42035)
pool_size = 65535 (string_vacancies+23500..65535)
buf_size = 32765 (120..32765)
stack_size = 200 (1..2000)
max_in_open = 6 (1..30)
param_size = 60 (1..16382)
nest_size = 40 (1..1000)
save_size = 600 (1..8190)
trie_size = 8000 (1..16382)
trie_op_size = 500 (1..8190)
mem_top = 50000 (mem_min+1100..mem_max)
hash_size = 2500 (325..6550)
hash_prime = 2129 (prime about 85% of hash_size)
hyph_size = 307 (prime from 1..16382)
* When I ran initex on lplain.tex, it gave the following error message:
This is TeX, Version 3.14 (INITEX) 9 SEP 1992 21:50
**lplain\dump
(:TeX-inputs:lplain.tex
! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [buf_size=32765].
l.1
% File LPLAIN - Created 29 October 1985 from plain version 1.5CM^...
If you really absolutely need more capacity,
try increasing the appropriate parameter in the current config file.
No pages of output.
* When I ran initex on splain.tex (to get SliTeX) I get the same message.
* I installed the same package on a Sun 3 (SunOS 4.1) at work on
monday, and was successful. What's the difference?
* I am using a modified version of report.sty (14jan92) to write my
dissertation and I also using some style files from the TeX archives
(apalike,setspace,breakcites,fancyheadings). I guess the latest
report.sty is not compatible with the version of LaTeX distributed
with OzTeX (last modified 20oct88 according to header of lplain.tex).
HELP!!
