Nadev is quite right. When I switched to teTeX I had some confusion, too. (I had always used the U Wash. tape.) Use 'pkg_delete' on all the tex packages including the support packages like dvips, etc. Reinstall teTex (everything you need is included with teTeX), cd to /usr/local/teTeX and run 'bin/texconfig'. You don't have to change much -- and you're off and running. -- Jay On Wed, 9 Apr 1997, Tommy Hallgren wrote: ->Jay D.
