Sorry to be so silly. (There's a texinfo.tex file in the same directory where I was running tex on the termcap.texi file, and I had assumed that that would be sufficient, but I guess not.) OK, next question: Now that I have a nice .dvi file, what FreeBSD package do i need to intall in order to get the `dvips' utility so that I can turn this .dvi file into something that's actually usable? P.S. Please forgive my abundant ignorance. I'm relatively new to FreeBSD. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
