at this point I thought I had best stop stumbling around and ask for help. My base system is Slackware LInux 10.0.
There should be a package named "ruby" or similar on Slackware, and that has to be installed. Cheers, Peter
Well I installed Ruby and got to the next problem. I went back to step 1: setuptex . ...followed by texexec --make --alone --- ! I can't read pdfetex.pool; bad path? ! I can't read pdfetex.pool; bad path? ! I can't read mp.pool; bad path? ! I can't read pdfetex.pool; bad path? ---- So now I have a path problem. The set command shows the path as: PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/tex/texmf-linux/bin: /opt/www/htdig/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/usr/lib/qt/bin:. What path items do I need, beyond :/usr/local/tex/texmf-linux/bin?
