New Revision: 15327
Log:
Add separate asymptote and indy. Various consistency edits and rephrasing
Texlive pass 1 now describes itself as just texlive from source, the original
texlive page is no longer rendered : I will archive the latter and then rename
the pass1 file in later commits, then look at what might optionally xref to the
binary page.
