I am still getting the hang of using LaTeX on our 4.2 system, and this is 
the first time I have actually tried to bring one up, so please bear with
these questions.

Having obtained a copy of common TeX (CTEX), I have been able to successfully
compile it on a VAX 11/785 running SYS V R2 using the mods discussed in this
news group.  I now have 3 executables; systex, initex and virtex.  Since the
documentation in the ctex package is a tad on the light side, what do I do now?

In a "avoid reinventing the wheel" direction, has anyone done a port of undump
and LaTeX to Sys V?

Thanks for your help
