Is there any interest in a ftp'able binary distribution of TeX for
Unix/386 systems?
I can make mine available through one of the local ftp sites.
I posted a similar message to comp.text.tex, but only got a couple of
responses. Maybe this is a better forum for potential "customers"
for such package. After all, readers of text.tex are already TeX
users.
The idea would be to offer a self contained collection of TeX +
Metafont binaries ( from the latest web2c compiled with gcc) and
formated manual pages. This was generated under ISC 2.2. I am
assuming the binaries should run unchanged on the other SysV 3.2
implementations.
In addition the binaries, I would include the essential TeX, LaTeX and
Metafont input files, and a full working system could be built.
I don't have X-Windows in my machine yet, so I'd need contributions (
xdvi, texx X-metafont) on the X side.
Any Suggestions?
