Add these three commands in the appropriate .texi file after @end titlepage.
@afourlatex @headings double @setchapternewpage odd
The first command selects A4 paper with better margins than the @afourpaper command. The second command turns on page headers suitable for two-sided printing (duplex printing). The third command starts the next chapter on an odd page number. Continue reading Texinfo manuals on A4 paper
Revision 392534 of the FreeBSD ports tree added TeX Live 2015. In the process, print/texlive-infra was replaced with print/texlive-tlmgr.
If you already have TeX Live 2014 installed, e.g. print/texlive-full, then print/texlive-base conflicts with print/texlive-texmf and vice versa. Continue reading TeX Live 2015 on FreeBSD
I am in great need of keeping long words set in teletype fonts on the same line of output in both TeX and LaTeX documents. Neither TeX nor LaTeX breaks the line ahead of teletype text when horizontal boxes overflow. The command \allowbreak exists in Plain TeX, and maybe it even existed in Basic TeX back in the late ’70s. Sadly that command doesn’t do what I want. Maybe I’m missing something vital. Continue reading \goodlinebreak in TeX and LaTeX
The 20141214 entry in ports/head/UPDATING says:
20141214:
AFFECTS: users of TeXLive
AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.orgSeveral scripts in print/texlive-base have been moved to devel/tex-kpathsea. Upgrading them can fail because texlive-base depends on tex-kpathsea, and the new ex-kpathsea tries to install files which were installed by the old texlive-base. The following error message indicates this situation:
pkg-static: tex-kpathsea-6.2.0_1 conflicts with texlive-base-20140525_3 (installs files into the same place). Problematic file: /usr/local/bin/kpsewhere
To solve this problem, remove both of tex-kpathsea and texlive-base first and install the new versions:
# pkg delete -f tex-kpathsea texlive-base
The above is a bit drastic, at least for us who build our own ports. These two portupgrade commands gets the job done, albeit with some overhead:
portupgrade -fprv print/texlive-base portupgrade -fprv devel/tex-kpathsea
Det hender at jeg bruker plain TeX, selv om favoritten er og blir LaTeX. For noen år siden lagde jeg en bursdagskalender som regner ut hvor gamle folk blir. Under finner du et sensurert eksempel. Du kan sniktitte på denne PDF-fila dersom du lurer på hvordan en slik kalender kan se ut. Continue reading Bursdagskalender med plain TeX
