Just a note of encouragement: I built a teTeX beta almost exactly 1 year ago using instructions posted on a Japanese web site (try a search for "cygwin tetex beta"). There was a minor problem with the generated Makefiles that I fixed manually, but overall the build went smoothly. The reason for building teTeX was to solve a problem one of our students was having with pdftex on a Win95 PC (the install .DLL versions didn't suit either fptex or MikTeX, and she needed to run some lab instrumentation software so it didn't make sense to risk updating DLL's just for pdftex). -- George White <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Head of St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia
