I don't know what's wrong, but I'm still not buying that it is simply a
memory problem. However I have no idea how to analyze this. Unix
shouldn't have this problem.

Subject: New Installer
From: "Adrian Heathcote"

Hi Gerben
Many thanks for the excellent new i-installer! It is terrific. I have
gone through it all without a hitch and it is all working well.
A couple of times on the list you've mentioned that the new release of
tetex changes the way the system handles fonts---specifically wrt map
files and config files. So can I ask what the best practice is now for
the installation of postscript fonts.
1) where should the map and config files be so that they are safe from
future texmf tree upgrades? (does one put them in
/library/texmf/dvips/config? Or where?)
2) is there a need for doing updmap or some such in the terminal?
Thanks again for the great work
Adrian Heathcote

I think texmf.local is a good place for additional map files.

Yes. Just run updmap. You can run this from any location, it is now a
normal command in the TeX binaries location.
I might add this to the configure stage (like languages), but it is a
bit specialistic. Maybe I will change the current Tex Config package to
a more complex configure and keep the ones in programs and foundation
simple. Let me think this over.

Thanks Gerben
I ran updmap on some other fonts and it has worked fine but the
following also came up in the terminal log:
Scanning for MixedMap entries:
using map file
`/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/bluesky/bsr-interpolated.map'
using map file `/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/bluesky/bsr.map'
updmap: map file `cm-super-t1.map' not found.
updmap: map file `cm-super-t2a.map' not found.
updmap: map file `cm-super-t2b.map' not found.
updmap: map file `cm-super-t2c.map' not found.
updmap: map file `cm-super-ts1.map' not found.
updmap: map file `cm-super-x2.map' not found.
using map file `/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/misc/cs.map'
using map file `/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/tetex/hoekwater.map'
using map file `/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/pl/pl.map'
Do these not `not found' maps constitute a problem. I can't see whether
the cm-super fonts work because I'm not sure how to call them. So is
there a configuration problem?

From: "Greg Starr"

I have delayed upgrading to Jaguar, partly because of the TeXShop
problems reported here; slow updating with syntax coloring, path
problems, etc.
I'm buying Jaguar today, and I wonder what I should expect as far as
TeX-related problems? I'm going to completely wipe my hard drive and
clean install everything.
I am definitely a "non-expert" TeX user, passably familiar with Unix,
longtime Mac user.
Thanks for any advice.

It depends on the speed of your machine, as well as your tolerance for
speed issues. I've found TeXShop to be quite fine, but it may be a
matter of my settings. There is always the option of using other
editors that haven't been reported to have these problems (e.g. Vim,
Emacs, BBEdit). I think the only problem remaining now for some is the
slow updating. However, this isn't a killer. iTeXMac has had some
recent speed problems, but that is being resolved as well.
I think clean installing without a clear need to do so is a waste of
time (coming from someone who has done it more than they should have).
Just remember to run the disk utility and fix permissions after
upgrading.

Five possible choices, at least, on Mac OS X:
- Mozilla at : the public domain descendant of=20=
Netscape Communicator. Big (browser, mail, composer, IRC chat, address=20=
book), multi-platform. You know the saying: trying to please everybody,=20=
at the risk of pleasing nobody, and to do everything, at the risk of=20
doing nothing very well. Not quite Mac, as OS X has already its own=20
mail, chat and address book applications. Very impressive in any case.=20=
With also calendar, spell check, MathML editor planned.
- Netscape 7 at : Netscape's version of the=20
above. Which means in particular: IRC chat replaced by AOL chat, and=20
popup blocking disabled.
- Chimera at : lightweight,=20
browser-only version of Mozilla, designed specially for the Mac, with=20
Gecko (Mozilla's graphic engine) embedded in a Cocoa user interface. In=20=
development (version 0.6 now), but works already very well. Can't print=20=
to A4 paper though, at least for me.
- Phoenix at : multi-platform,=20
lightweight, browser-only version of Mozilla, redesigned in the XUL=20
language. Primarily for Windows and Linux, for the moment, but the=20
experimental unofficial Mac build at the address above works already=20
very well. And it does print on A4 paper! Version 0.4, the original=20
site is . With the Pinstripes=20=
theme it feels very Mac. In my opinion, though it was started after=20
Chimera, it might take over.
- OmniWeb at : an=20
alternative to all these Mozilla-based browsers. It is allegedly more=20
powerful than them (more customizable), and (if I understood well) it=20
started its life as a Next application so it was designed from the=20
start with Cocoa in mind. But I think its rendering of graphic files is=20=
less good than that achieved by Mozilla.
So, as you may have guessed, my choice would be: 1 ex. Phoenix/Chimera,=20=
3 Mozilla, 4 Netscape, 5 OmniWeb. But I'm not a specialist neither a=20
programmer, rather an end-user.

These messages are pretty harmless. The maps are turned on in the
updmap configuration file but they are ignored when unavailable and you
get this warning.
If you install the CM-Super i-package the maps (and type1 fonts) become
available. You can turn them on or off at will using the configuration
stage of the i-package.
If you know how to handle this (copy and paste it on the command line
into uudecode): here is a file that shows what cm-super does. I attach
it like tihs, because real attachments are probably forbidden on the
list.

Subject: Re: [OS X TeX] Jaguar and TeXShop/teTeX - safe?
From: "Themis Matsoukas"
Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 12:53:23 -0500
I was in exactly the same position ( I even asked the same question in
this group). I delayed upgrade for the same reason until about two
weeks ago. Here is my experience after the upgrade:
1) The upgrade was very easy. I did not have to re-install applications
or fonts. After the upgarde, my previous tetex/texshop installation was
fully functional. This was great relief as I had spent hours backing up
everything fearing I might have to re-install my applications.
2) I noticed the reported slowdown in texshop with color syntax on but
not to the point that I could use texshop. It was not as bad as I had
assumed. The severity of the slowdown is related to the processor
speed. I have a G3 iMac, 700 MHz, 356 RAM. With syntax coloring on,
the typing speed is a bit slow but not incapacitating. With a large
document (~20 printed pages), though, it can take several seconds
before colored syntax is applied to the whole document (you can see the
color wave moving down).
3) After I noticed the slowdown in texshop I downloaded and installed
version 1.2. This version is also slow in coloring but I can't say I
noticed much of a difference compared to the previous version.
4) I have not updated to the newest tetex. The previous installation
works fine.
5) Printer support is much better. Before Jaguar I could not access
special printer features such as duplex printing, staples, etc. Now I
can.
6) Jaguar runs noticeably smoother than OS X 10.1. Before the upgrade I
was very concerned that Jaguar might be too slow for my processor (you
know how it works: you by computer, you upgrade system, you need new
computer to run the new system, and so on). Windows open faster,
animation is smoother, there is finally a keyboard shortcut for "hide
others" (only in the finder, unfortunately).
7) All my applications run but some misbehave (eg Mathematica).

the amount of text varies) with no indentation or breaks. Periods end

Subject: [OS X TeX] Diacritic accents directly in source file
From: "Juan Manuel Palacios"
Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 14:57:02 -0400
Hello fellow listers, what I have here is a TeX related =
question,=20
oriented (but not exclusively) to those who use more than just english=20=
in their texts. I am looking for a way to make my life easy when I type=20=
input text in a spanish LaTeX source file, as I have to write many words=20=
with accents. Given my limited TeX knowledge the only way I can achieve=20=
a nicely looking accented letter like =E9 in the output is by typing \'e=20=
in the source code but, as any one who uses romance languages surely=20
knows, this becomes a major nuisance fast. What I would like to do is to=20=
be able to just type =E9 in the source file in order to get the proper=20=
accented letter in the output, but all the methods I've tried so far=20
leave me with no positive results. In the preamble of my file I have:
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[spanish]{babel}
\usepackage{isolatin1}
\usepackage{indentfirst}
\usepackage{amsmath}
But none of them get me what I want. The way I understand it is:=20=
the [T1]{fontenc} package will serve me to get proper hyphenation in=20
accented letters and other non standard characters; [spanish]{babel}=20
will put spanish spelled titles like "Resumen" instead of "Abstract";=20
{isolatin1}, the one I was told would save my day, has turned difficult=20=
for me to figure out. If, with all packages loaded, I type \'e in the=20
source file I get a properly accented e (=E9) in the output, but if I =
type=20
=E9 directly I get a capital O with a tilde (~, or so it seems) on top =
of=20
it. Commenting out the isolatin1 package while loading the others=20
produces no difference in the output, the same accented O appears.=20
Turning [T1]{fontenc} off and {isolatin1} on is transparent to \'e but=20=
blows my =E9 into nothingness in the output (nothing appears, not even =
the=20
accented O). Turning both of yields the same result, nothing is printed=20=
for =E9. Testing combinations with [spanish]{babel} commented out is not=20=
possible because LaTeX reports various different errors due to the=20
absence of that package and I cannot justify troubleshooting those with=20=
the excuse of finding a procedure that will help me save time in the=20
future.
So, after all my sterile tests, I thought I could seek advice =
here=20
from those of you who have had to deal with this before. Is there=20
something that helps LaTeX understand code written with non standard=20
english characters? The only useful thing I've seen about the isolatin1=20=
package is that it lets me write \'i instead of \'{\i} to get a properly=20=
accented =ED (without it \'i produces an i with its regular dot and an=20=
accent on top of it). For the sake of formality, I have Mac OS X 10.1.5=20=
and I'm writing my files with an american keyboard and layout, even=20
though I don't think that has any bearing on the results.
Any one, please...? Thank you all in advance for your time and=20=
advice. Sincerely,...
Juan.

Hello William and thanks for the very quick reply. But I'm afraid
my knowledge doesn't reach that far. What would be a proper setting for
inputenc? OT1 was Mr. Knuth's original encoding and as far as I know it
is not suited for what I need, T1 is not yielding positive results
either and my list of known encodings stops there! And about Omega and
Unicode, how do I do that? Omega is a different app, right (I forgot to
say that I am using TeXShop 1.20 for my source editing and compilation)?
Is there a way to make TeXShop use Unicode?
Thanks again for the quick reply. Regards,...
Juan.

Try replacing

by
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
But that depends on the encoding specified in the text editor you use.=20=
latin1 is for UNIX-style keyboard design. In TeXShop this is called=20

I find that Chimera works quite well, better than OmniWeb
(unfortunately since I like its rendering) . In know of a few sites

And now here's my final word:
I was right the first time, sort of. There is some bad interaction
between
the Tex i-installers and / or the Ghostscript 7 i-installer, and
the Super CM i-installer:
After updating my TeX and ghostscript installations, I then got errors
from Gerben's CM Super test file. They went away after I reopened the
CM-Super i-installer, and re-ran its configure script.
Gerben, is there some way this can be (i) prevented or (ii)
reconfiguring be done automatically if CM-Super is present?
Thanks.

From: "Gerben Wierda"
Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 21:21:52 +0100
There is a TeX4ht i-Package available. TeX4ht is part of my TeX
Programs i-package, I just had not gotten around to creating a package
for the support files yet. It is done, I am uploading now. TUG already
has it, the known packages and the other sites need an upload to
complete (will take a couple of hours)
Version: tex4ht.c (2002-05-12-02:16) (TeXLive as of a few days ago).
URL for i-Installer's New Menu item:
http://tug.org/i-packages/tex4ht.ii2
I am not a tex4ht expert, but it works here on a simple file using T1
encoding (my CM-Super test file). It might be you need to install
certain helper tools for graphics, like ImageMagick, I do not know that.

Yes I think you need to convert the encoding to Iso Latin before moving=20=
your file to Linux. I've done a quick test and it seems to work: in=20
TeXShop, in Preferences/Document select the Iso Latin encoding, type=20
your accented letters directly, then in LaTeX select=20
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}. Doing this, I get in my LaTeXed output=20
the accents corresponding to the keys I pressed. But I've not yet tried=20=

Did you update, or did you remove and re-install TeX?
This is weird. CM-Super configuration runs the right updmap commands to
enable the cm-super map files. This is stored in the texmf.local
subdirectory. Unless you completely remove TeX, these shold survive a
re-install of TeX Foundation.

Yes, probably if it really is a problem, but not soon. I am going on a
10-day vacation tomorrow, so it'll have to wait until later.

OK, have a good time! You deserve a vacation. Thanks for all the good
work!
I guess my previous message showed everyone what the workaround is
anyhow.

It was the menu for our June 8 wedding party many of you sent such nice
cards to. Excellent food and wine. If you ever are in the
neighbourhood, the place is called: De Beukenhof
(http://www.debeukenhof.nl). Worth your while.
