Installation and requirements of gletex

First of all you need a machine running an operating system, which means there is a vi editor from scratch. Running or porting gletex on any Microsoft sham operating systems is forbidden explicitly by the author. Additionally the following programs need to be installed in actual versions:

  • perl interpreter
  • gle
  • TeX/LaTeX package including dvips

To install gletex the following three files need to be copied in a common directory:

  • gletex - the perl script which is the proper gletex implementation
  • gletexpswrite.gle - hold the gle routine pswrite, which read encapsulated postscript files with scaling and positioning
  • gletexerror.ps - an encapsulated postscript file which contains an error message for non-processable (La)TeX expressions

gletex traces sym-links. Therefore it is possible to copy the files into a directory and maka a sym-link to a binary directory.

gletex might be copied under the restrictions written above. Modifications of the program for further development or adaption to other platforms are allowed as long as the original author remains named in the source. Additionally it would be a benefit for the users of gletex to propagate those changes. I'm open for this.

Important notice: There is no warranty of any kind for the program. You use it entirely at your own risk.
