How to Obtain TeX
-----------------

TeX is a document formatter that is used, among other things, by the FSF
for all its documentation.  You will need it if you want to make printed
manuals.

TeX is freely redistributable.  You can get it by ftp, tape, or CD/ROM.

* For FTP instructions, retrieve the file
  ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/unixtex.ftp. (We don't include it here because
  it changes relatively frequently.  Sorry.)

* For TeX on a single tape (4mm DAT or QIC-24), ordering information is
  available from unixtex@u.washington.edu.  A distribution fee in the
  area of US$210.00 covers administrative costs.  Tapes will be
  available at least through summer of 1994.

  The FSF hopes soon to distribute tapes of TeX itself, after the
  University of Washington distribution service goes away.

* A minimal TeX collection (enough to process Texinfo files, anyway) is
  included on the GNU source CD/ROM.  See the file ORDERS in this
  directory for more information.
