help with "tex," not latex

help with "tex," not latex

Post by Dale Mart » Sun, 26 Feb 1995 22:18:51



Hello.  I installed the "T" series of diskettes from Slackware 2.1,
and chose to install the "texi2dvi" executable.  When I try to run
texi2dvi, it tries to run "tex".  Since there is no "tex" executable,
and no link from "tex" to "virtex", I made a link...  This didn't
work.  "latex" does work, so I am guessing to get "virtex" to look
like "tex" instead of "latex", I need to tell "virtex" to use
different configuration files... Is there a FAQ or howto on this?
Is anyone able to decipher what I just wrote, and if so, am I close?

Any info/comments would be appreciated.

Later,
        Dale
