The requirement for a tex port to pass the trip test cannot be overemphasized. It may not be important to everyone, but I derive great comfort knowing that I can upgrade to the latest version by just ftp'ing to stanford to get the new .web file and just changing the version number in the .ch file and uttering "make". One thing that Ken did forget to mention is that with the web2c setup you not only get tex82 in C but you also get Metafont and a lot (not all [yet]) of the TeX and Metafont support programs in C. -------------------------------------- rusty c. wright rusty@cartan.berkeley.edu ucbvax!cartan!rusty
