This version of dvix has been modified to use Karl Berry's "kpathsea" library, so that it searches the various TeX directories just like the rest of the Unix TeX distribution. The subdirectory "kpathsea" contains an unmodified copy of version 0.3 of the library, from ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/kpathsea-0.3.tar.z. In order to wedge the kpathsea library into dvix, I borrowed some code from xdvik: pxl-open.? and some of the GNU configuration stuff. dvix no longer handles .pxl format fonts (big deal). To install: Edit Makefile.in to taste. (cd kpathsea; sh configure) sh configure make make install Below is Jeff Lee's original README. - Ken Lalonde Dvix is a TeX .dvi file previewer that grew out of the X10 version of xdvi. As such, it's command line parsing and use of the resource manager is amazingly primitive. On the other hand, it is FAST when displaying full-page images on networked servers. It also includes support for tpic and mouse-based ``smooth'' scrolling. Dvix will detect and handle changes to the associated .dvi file that occur between page refreshes. (After changing the .dvi file, type CTRL-L to refresh the window.) It renders the page within the workstation instead of within the server in order to speed up drawing for small images. [N.B. The latest version of xdvi is faster when using 300dpi fonts at shrink-factor=1 or with GraphOn X terminals.] Some other features have been added. It comes with an up-to-date man page. The name of the object file has been changed to ``dvix'' to distinguish it from other divergent versions of xdvi for X11. This version of dvix uses the font loading code from another version of xdvi and supports PXL and PK fonts. This is still a beta-release version and carries no guarantees. Please mail any complaints, complements, bugfixes, etc. to: jonah@db.toronto.edu Site dependent compile time defines are mostly found in "local.h". (See also pxl.h for BITS_PER_LONG, BITS_PER_SHORT, and BITS_PER_BYTE.) Disclaimer: No support is offered; no warranty is given. AS IS.
