This is the README file for dvi2ps, version 3.

The source for dvi2ps is contained (surprise) in the directory ./src.
Before compiling it, read the file ./src/Installation. Changes may have to
be made in the ./src/Makefile and the ./postscript/Makefile. Before 
installing it, you may also have to change ./Makefile. Once these changes
are made, you can carry out the automated part of the process with the commands:

make
make install
make veryclean

If you want to use the builtin fonts; there are two unautomated steps
to carry out, one required and one optional. The required step is that the
files in the directory ./tfm must be copied or moved to a location where
TeX and dvi2ps can both find them; i.e., to one of the directories specified
in ${TFMAREA} or the environment variable TEXFONTS. The optional step is to
use the information in ./inputs to produce a .fmt file which has preloaded
the builtin fonts.

If you plan to use Trevor Darrell's psfig/TeX to include graphics, you
should also print a hardcopy of his userguide. The automated steps should
have produced the postscript code. So, before running ``make veryclean'',

cd ./psfig/usrguide.
lpr ug.ps

You might also wish to read the advertisement in the file ./Features.

The subdirectories of the current directory are:

./bbfig		contains the source for Ned Batchelder's bbfig program,
	which gives a way to compute the bounding boxes of PostScript
	figures.

./doc		contains various forms of documentation, some of them more
	useful and more up-to-date than others. The manual page is up-to-date.

./inputs	contains various tools to modify the default fonts used
	by plain TeX.

./other		only contains a discussion of some other useful TeX-related
	programs.

./postscript	contains the PostScript prologue code needed to make dvi2ps
	work properly.

./psfig		contains the source and documentation for Trevor Darrell's
	psfig/TeX program to automate the inclusion of PostScript graphics
	in TeX documents.

./src		The source code for dvi2ps.

./styles	contains various LaTeX style files to make it easier to use
	builtin fonts with LaTeX.

./tfm		The tfm files for the builtin fonts.
