These files are Release 3.14.1 of TeX plus associated BibTeX and MF
and release 5.47 of dvips. They have been organized to help (I hope) ease the
pain of updating for new compiler/library releases. Files that are 
dependent on the library version in use have been moved into separate
sub-directories as has the web/web2c source.

  dvips.doc.T.Z     - documentation for dvips 
  mf.lib.i.T.Z      - support files for metafont that are independent of the
                      binary version in use
  tex.lib.i.T.Z     - support files for tex, latex, slitex and bibtex that are
                      independent of the binary version in use
  texmf.man.T.Z     - *.1 man pages for most of the programs

  OLD               - obsolete versions (to be deleted in due course)

  GCC.2.2.2.version - files that are dependent on the GCC 2.2.2 shared
                      libraries. Includes:
     texetc.bin.T.Z - binaries linked with gcc 2.2.2 shared libs: includes
                    - bibtex, initex, virtex, inimf, virmf, mft, dvicopy,
                    - dvitype, pktogf, pktype, vftovp, vptovf, gftodvi,
                    - gftopk, gftype, patgen, pltotf, tftopl, pooltype,
                    - tangle, weave, dvips
     tex.lib.d.T.Z  - tex.pool and format files for tex, latex etc for the
                    - above binaries
     mf.lib.d.T.Z   - metafont lib files for the above binaries
     mfnoX.T.Z      - metafont binaries without X support

  Jump.4.1.version - files that are dependent on the version 4.1 jump
                      libraries. Includes:
     texetc.bin.T.Z - binaries linked with version 4.1 jump libs: includes
                    - bibtex, initex, virtex, inimf, virmf, mft, dvicopy,
                    - dvitype, pktogf, pktype, vftovp, vptovf, gftodvi,
                    - gftopk, gftype, patgen, pltotf, tftopl, pooltype,
                    - tangle, weave, dvips
     tex.lib.d.T.Z  - tex.pool and format files for tex, latex etc for the
                    - above binaries
     mf.lib.d.T.Z   - metafont lib files for the above binaries
     mfnoX.T.Z      - metafont binaries without X support

  Source            - source files for building TeX/MF. Includes:
     web.tar.Z      - web sources for TeX/MF/BibTeX etc
     web2c.tar.Z    - web2c sources for TeX/MF/BibTeX etc
     texmf.diff.T.Z - patch for the above 2 files for installation under linux

The most efficient use (from the point of view of disk space) is to start 
without any pk files and let dvips create them as required. This is initially
a little time consuming but eventually you will have all the pk files for fonts
that you normally use (generally much less than a full LaTeX distribution).

INSTALLATION:

The files described above (except those in OLD and source) have been tarred
relative to /usr/local rather than / as in the old version. This means that
they may be installed in /usr or /usr/local (according to your preference)
by cd'ing to the appropriate directory and untarring. (Hopefully this will
amelorate the discussion about where they should go).

IF they are installed in a directory other than /usr/local then it will be
necessary to set the various environment variables (described in the man
pages) to reflect their location so that the various binaries can find them.
Also references in some man pages to the whereabouts of various files may need
to be amended.
