Title: The Base System of teTeX

Description:
After installing teTeX and the package te_latex, find a large selection
of documentation for TeX, LaTeX, and various layout styles under
/usr/share/texmf/doc.

TeX (pronounced tech) is an interpreter for text formatting and was
developed by Donald E. Knuth. It works with control and macro commands
on a text file. Working with TeX is similar to typesetting methods.
LaTeX or better LaTeX2e is a complex macro package which removes the
cryptical TeX interface and does most of the work for the user.

TeX uses special fonts produced by the MetaFont program. Various
printer drivers and an X11 viewer is also included in this package. The
teTeX package is based on the standard TeX package of Karl Berry which
makes configuration much easier. It's also possible to use PostScript
fonts. A real PostScript printer is required however. If the
ghostscript (gs) package is installed, all drivers for printing and
viewing can use these fonts. Note, however, that the fonts included in
the ghostscript package are not identical to Adobe's PostScript fonts.
The copyright prohibits us from including them on the CD.

Besides these features, there are the programs MakeIndex (for producing
indexes), BibTeX (for literature data-processing), and the script
xtexsh (requires tcl/tk).

Note the differences between LaTeX2.09 and LaTeX2e. LaTeX2e can process
original LaTeX2.09 text, but style files that require LaTeX2.09
internal macros may not work correctly. Under
/usr/share/texmf/doc/latex/base/, find the documentation for LaTeX2e.
New users should review the documentation stored there.

The teTeX package from Thomas Esser includes a full texmf tree, many
programs (tex, dvips, ...), shell scripts configuration, and a big
collection of documentations. This package is simply configured by the
script texconfig and has multilanguage options.

Do not install this package together with ntex; ntex is not delivered
together with SuSE Linux.

teTeX is NOT an upgrade or update for the ntex package!!
