We recommend using the 1293139Srutexi2dvi included in this distribution to run a Texinfo manual through 1356160SruTeX to produce a DVI file. 1442660Smarkm 1542660SmarkmThe .tex files are not installed automatically because TeX installations 1642660Smarkmvary so widely. Installing them in the wrong place would give a false 1742660Smarkmsense of security. So, you should simply cp *.tex to the appropriate 1842660Smarkmplace. If your installation follows the TeX Directory Structure 1956160Srustandard (http://tug.org/tds/), this will be the directory 20100513SruTEXMF/tex/texinfo/ for texinfo.tex, TEXMF/tex/generic/dvips/ for epsf.tex, 2193139Sruand TEXMF/pdftex/plain/misc for pdfcolor.tex. If you use the default 2293139Sruinstallation paths, TEXMF will be /usr/local/share/texmf. On systems 2393139Sruwith TeX preinstalled, as most GNU/Linux distributions offer, TEXMF 2493139Sruwill often be something like /usr/share/texmf. 2542660Smarkm 2656160SruIt is also possible to put these .tex files in a `local' place instead 2793139Sruof overwriting existing ones, but this is more complicated. See your TeX 2856160Srudocumentation in general and the texmf.cnf file in particular for information. 2956160Sru 3056160SruIf you add files to your TeX installations, not just replace existing 3156160Sruones, you very likely have to update your ls-R file; do this with the 3256160Srumktexlsr command. In older versions, this was named MakeTeXls-R. 3356160Sru 3442660SmarkmYou can get the latest texinfo.tex from 35114472Sruftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo.tex (and all GNU mirrors) 3656160Sruftp://tug.org/tex/texinfo.tex (and all CTAN mirrors) 3742660Smarkmor on the FSF machines in /home/gd/gnu/doc/texinfo.tex. 3842660SmarkmIf you have problems with the version in this distribution, please check 3942660Smarkmfor a newer version. 4042660Smarkm 4142660Smarkmepsf.tex comes with dvips distributions, and you may already have it 4242660Smarkminstalled.
