------------ Start Zitat ------------------------------------- From: jeff@cluster.cs.su.oz.au (Jeff Kingston) Newsgroups: comp.text,comp.misc,aus.general Subject: new document formatting system (Lout) now available Keywords: document formatting text processing typesetting lout Message-ID: <3431@cluster.cs.su.oz.au> Date: 14 Nov 91 02:26:21 GMT Organization: Dept. of Comp. Science, Uni of Sydney, Australia Lines: 25 A new document formatting system called Lout is now available (free of charge). Lout offers an unprecedented range of advanced features, including equation formatting, tables, diagrams, rotation and scaling, sorted indexes, access to bibliographic databases, running headers and odd-even pages, automatic cross referencing, and much more, all ready to go. Furthermore, Lout is easily extended with definitions which are very much easier to write than troff of TeX macros. This is all possible because Lout is the outcome of a seven-year research project which went back to the beginning. Lout is written in C, is highly portable to Unix systems, and produces PostScript output (used by most laser printers). It is distributed as a compressed tar file called lout.tar.Z in the pub subdirectory of the home directory you land in when running "ftp beta.cs.su.oz.au" with login name "anonymous" and no password. The distribution contains * Complete C source code * Standard packages of definitions for tech reports, books, equations, tables, diagrams, and Pascal prettyprinting (all written in Lout) * Complete user documentation in the form of six technical reports and a Unix manual page * A makefile and installation instructions Lout was designed and implemented by Jeffrey H. Kingston (jeff@cs.su.oz.au) of the Basser Department of Computer Science at the University of Sydney. ------------ Ende Zitat -------------------------------------- Jetzt auch auf ftp.cs.uni-sb.de [134.96.7.254] unter /pub/others -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 956543 Nov 15 15:47 lout.tar.Z Bitte wg. der Groesse nur abends/nachts abholen. -- Bernard Sieloff | DOMAIN: bs@cs.uni-sb.de Max-Planck-Institut fuer Informatik | UUCP: bs@sbsvax.uucp Uni Bau 36, Im Stadtwald 15 | Phone: +49 681 302 2434 W-6600 Saarbruecken 11, Germany | Fax: +49 681 302 4421
