Hello,
Perhaps you should just make an symbolic link from linuxdoc.sty do
linuxdoc-sgml.sty. Do as root:

# cd where_linuxdoc-sgml.sty_file_resides_in_TeX_tree
# ln -s linuxdoc-sgml.sty linuxdoc.sty

Anyway - after you _manually_ changed filename in TeX/LaTeX directory
tree, you _have_ to run program texhash, as root:

# texhash

This will update files, where TeX/LaTeX looks for locations of files.

Man + Latex

1998-06-28 Thread Dennis Dixon
I am still working on reading text files.  Acting on Alexey Vyskubov's
advice I downloaded the man-db package.  Now, instead of:
   'zmore Xserver.1x.gz', when I use
   'man  Xserver' I no longer have control characters
interspersed in the text.

When I was installing man-db, however, I got the following error message:

Checking for languages ...de_DECan't locate Getopt/Long.pm in
@INC at /usr/sbin/chman config line 38 

Man still seems to run, so possibly this isn't important and should be ignored.


The other problem is with .tex files which I assume I use the Latex command.
My error message when I run:
   'latex guide.tex' is:

   'Can't find file linuxdoc.sty'

On Jens Ritter suggestion, I downloaded the 'sgml-tools' package which has
the file 'linuxdoc-sgml.sty'.  This not working, I renamed the
'linuxdoc-sgml.sty' file to 'linuxdoc.sty', which also didn't work.

Jens Ritter mentioned that the file 'linuxdoc.sty' is in 'gweb', but I
couldn't find the 'qweb' package anywhere. 


Sorry for taking up everyone's time with such basic questions.  Wish things
were easier. By the way, several times I've seen 'IIRC' printed on e-mails.
Forgive my ignorance, but what does that stand for?

Thanks for anyone's help.

IIRC = If I Remember Correctly
Used if you're not 100% sure of what you're saying.
