	* THIS IS IT!  The last missing pieces, Omega 1.5, has been
	added to AmiWeb2c 2.1.  This marks the very end of my life as
	Amigician!  Pack things up and off we go.  Enjoy!

	And to my poor old A2000 I say: RIP!

Sat, 14 Mar 1998 17:37:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* We're almost done!  With the single exception of the various
	programs of the Omega extension, all other parts of AmiWeb2c 2.1
	are created in their final form (so I hope).  All that's left to
	do is upgrade to Omega 1.5 next week.

	* The necessary tests are passed perfectly.

	* _All_ formats, including those of Omega 1.496, were created and
	run at least on one source file successfully.

	* New: e-TeX 2.0, pdfTeX 0.12f.

Thu, 12 Mar 1998 20:00:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Apply the final spit and polish to callmf.w.

Sun, 8 Mar 1998 00:12:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* The demo-setup of AmiWeb2c 2.1 works: TeX, LaTeX, MetaPost,
	DVIPS, all find their respective stuff.  Some fine-tuning in
	User-StartUp.entry and in the documentation.  Leaving the
	various "latex" binaries out and replacing them with simple
	"alias"es reduces the final distribution by almost 2 MB.

	* Quite a lot of work to get missing fonts being created again.
	The Unix "mktexpk" script uses getopt-notation, so also the
	Amiga "mktexpk" script has to be refined.  MakeTeXFont.rexx
	must not set the environment variable LAST_FONT_CREATED prior
	to the successful creation of a pk/tfm file.  Use "unsetenv".
	[It is getting ever more obivous that CallMF should be
	replaced by "real" twins of the Unix "mktex*" scripts.]

	* Separate versions of dvips and odvips.  See TODO describing
	a severe problem with dvips in connection with callmf.

Sat, 7 Mar 1998 12:42:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 (pre-release) compiles in 3:52:54.64 hours.

Fri, 6 Mar 1998 20:40:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Everything is set for the final countdown.  Web2c 7.2 already
	has lost its beta state (but has not gone public yet), so also
	AmiWeb2c becomes "version 2.1" at long last.

	* New is dvips 5.78 with a fix in texc.lpro.

Sat, 28 Feb 1998 01:48:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 beta7 and associated drivers compile without problems.
	(Quite a few modifications were done for beta4-6, but I forgot to
	list them here.)

	* New is gsftopk 1.16.

	* trip uncovers two more bugs in the Amiga version of kpathsea/.

Mon, 2 Feb 1998 23:59:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 beta3 and associated drivers compile without problems.

	* New is MetaPost 0.64.

Wed, 21 Jan 1998 19:23:20 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Completely different "configure" mechanism on the Amiga;
	instead of merging (or rather tying) change files, an SED
	script is used to apply system-dependent switches and add-ons.

	* The introduction of several #ifndef _AMIGA protectors reduce
	the number of files necessary for porting "TeX and friends" to
	fourty-eight. Everything compiles out-of-the-box, i.e.,
	"rx configure" and "rx install" runs in less than four hours
	on my machine. SPQR says, we're almost done with "beta".
	Thanks to <s.rahtz@elsevier.co.uk> for his excellent work.

Fri, 16 Jan 1998 21:40:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Correct several SMakefile.in to link larger programs.

	* Modify web2c/SMakefile.in to speed up the entries in texmf.cnf.

	* Use the compiler option "stkext" for dvips with stack 4096.
	It shouldn't hurt the other programs either.

Thu, 15 Jan 1998 21:40:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Create correct entries in texmf.cnf so that [e|pdf]tex finds
	its stuff. (Omega bails out due to too little RAM.)

Sun, 11 Jan 1998 16:00:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 beta 1 compiles.

Fri, 9 Jan 1998 16:00:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 beta 0 compiles.

	* New stuff: dtl, dvidvi, lacheck, musixflx, seetexk, tex4htk.

	* Use "tie" instead of "wmerge" everywhere (source comes with
	Web2c 7.2; both binaries come with AmiWeb2c 2.1).

Mon, 8 Dec 1997 00:34:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 alpha 4 compiles.  Single exception: xdvi/.

Sun, 7 Dec 1997 16:00:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.2 alpha 4.  Everything except xdvi/ and web2c/
	proper compiles smoothly.  New features: e-TeX, Omega, gsftopk,
	makeindexk, and ps2pkm are integral parts of (Ami)Web2c.  (The
	Amiga version of) dvips(k) includes odvips(k) for Omega.

Sat, 1 Nov 1997 11:45:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* TRIPTRAP complete. The non-standard deviation in "trip.typ"
	comes from a difference in the compilers used. SAS/C++ 6.58
	"printf" truncates double values, while Unix cc/gcc rounds.

Tue, 28 Oct 1997 21:00:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* Web2c 7.1 beta 0.  Includes only the core system, no
	auxiliary programs.

Sun, 7 Sep 1997 11:00:00 Andreas Scherer <andreas.scherer@pobox.com>

	* New (and hopefully permanent) private e-mail address.

Fri, 5 Sep 1997 21:00:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Documentation: Fix some places pointed out by Frank.

Fri, 1 Aug 1997 20:00:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: CallMF and MetaPost: Clip list entries should be
	set by "rxset" instead of by "rx 'SetClip()'".  Suggested by
	Hartmut Gbel <hartmut@oberon.noris.de>.

Sat, 26 Jul 1997 19:40:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: "make triptrap" in "web2c/" finally works out of
	the box.  Several "rename" were replaced by "copy/delete", the
	environment TEXMFCNF is set (and unset) automatically.

	* General installation: "mp" comes as "mpost" like in Web2c.

Sat, 19 Jul 1997 12:00:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* General installation: After I received the second version of
	the "TeX Live CD" I decided to significantly change the structure
	of the file distribution again.

Mon, 26 May 1997 19:53:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Documentation: Some minor enhancements suggested by Frank.

	* General installation: Include the `official' DOSPrefs 3.1 from
	Aminet.  (It seems to be virtually the same I already had from NP.)

Tue, 20 May 1997 21:07:23 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: "CallMF 2": Fix a bug reported by Christophe.

Wed, 14 May 1997 15:20:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: "CallMF 2": "SELFAUTOPARENT" must be initialized
	somehow, either by METAFONT or by KPSEWHICH.  Bug reported by
	Frank Knappe <knappe@tu-harburg.de>.

Fri, 9 May 1997 11:14:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: "CallMF 2":  Major changes provided by
	Christophe Labouisse <labouiss@club-internet.fr>.

	* Development: "DVIPrintSetUp 3.89": Look for the configuration
	file in "TeX:config/" like the PasTeX programs.

Thu, 8 May 1997 06:30:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Updated PDFTeX 0.11 binary submitted to Han The Thanh
	(he just won't bump the version number).

	* All source archives changed from TGZ to LHA format (gzip 124x2
	keeps crashing my system).

Sat, 3 May 1997 21:00:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Updated PDFTeX 0.11 binary submitted to Han The Thanh.

Thu, 1 May 1997 12:49:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* PDFTeX 0.11 binary submitted to Han The Thanh.

	* Implementation: Use "splitup.c" from the PDFTeX distribution
	instead of the extra change file.  One source file less in the
	texk-ami.lha archive.

Fri, 18 Apr 1997 17:53:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* General installation and documentation: Use version 3.1 of the
	DOSPrefs commodity.  Many thanks to Norbert Pschel for his immediate
	reaction to my bug report! <pueschel@imsdd.meb.uni-bonn.de>

	* General installation and documentation: Use two source directories
	`s' and `rexx' with stuff for `S:' and `REXX:' respectively.
	Suggested by Gino van den Bergen <gino@win.tue.nl>.

Fri, 11 Apr 1997 20:18:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Implementation: "printversion.ch" with note about the maintainer
	of AmiWeb2c.  Applied in "SMakefile(.in)". [Finally removed again.]

	* Implementation: Replace the shell script "MakeTeXls-R" with the
	ARexx program "MakeTeXls-R.rexx" and a small wrapper script.  These
	are independent of the place of invocation for completeness of the
	(sub)directory structure.

Thu, 3 Apr 1997 23:50:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Documentation: Rename `README.ami' to `README.amiweb2c'.

	* Documentation: Add AmigaGuide versions of Karl Berry's Texinfo
	documentation on Kpathsea, DVIPS, and Web2c.  Requested by Maarten
	D. de Jong <maarten@dutw1347.wbmt.tudelft.nl>.

	* Implementation: The VERSION_STRING used for all programs in this
	bundle is defined as " (AmiWeb2c 2.1)". ==> Bug in SMake 6.57;
	see "common.smake". [Solved differently in the final version.]

Wed, 19 Mar 1997 23:00:38 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: `pdftex-bin.tar.gz' submitted to Han The Thanh
	<thanh@informatics.muni.cz> for inclusion with the standard
	distribution of his PDFTeX extension.  This showed up two days
	later at ftp://ftp.dante.de/pub/tex/systems/tex2pdf/bin/Amiga/.

	* Documentation: Add new section about the necessity to use the
	"!!" definitions of `dbtex' and `dbfonts' in connection with PDFTeX.

Mon, 10 Mar 1997 21:12:03 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: Script `MakeTeXls-R' scans even more directories and
	includes their contents to the `ls-R' database.

	* Development: Script `install.rexx' creates the new libraries
	`libpng.lib' and `zlib.lib' (needed by `pdftex') prior to the bulk
	of programs.

Sat, 8 Mar 1997 08:43:11 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* General installation: Included a copy of the GNU General Public
	License, see file COPYING.

Fri, 7 Mar 1997 13:25:01 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* CallMF: Run `MakeTeXFont.rexx' and all the programs it invokes
	with priority "-5" to avoid system jam.  Suggested by Johannes.

	* CallMF: Bug in `MakeTeXFont.rexx': `nullmode' should result in
	a TFM file and not in a PK file, so LAST_FONT_CREATED has to be
	set differently.  Found by Johannes.

Fri, 7 Mar 1997 12:43:46 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Implementation: texmf.cnf: Use the extended form of the TEXMF
	definition as in Web2c 7.0 (except for the teTeX parts).  This
	also effects the file `paths.h' used in the compilation of `TeX
	and friends'.  Triggered by a question of Martin Kluge
	<mkluge@colorix.ph2.uni-koeln.de>.

Fri, 7 Mar 1997 12:40:45 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: Integration of the `PDFTeX' patches released by
	Sebastian Rahtz <s.rahtz@elsevier.co.uk> for inclusion with
	Web2c 7.0.  New `pdftex' binary added together with its
	`pdftex.pool' file.

Tue, 4 Mar 1997 19:59:18 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Documentation: amiweb2c.txt: Add note about LaTeX warning in
	`ltxcheck.tex' that `article.cls' is found in the current directory.
	This is not a bug, it's a feature of AmiWeb2c.  From Johannes.

	* PasTeX: DVIprint.fnt/ShowDVI.fnt (PasTeX section): `logo' is found
	in directory `texmf/fonts/source/public/mflogo' and so on.  `ps2pk'
	is renamed to `modeless' according to the TDS specification.
	From Johannes.

Fri, 28 Feb 1997 15:15:57 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Documentation: Misinformation in README.ami: `texmflib-7.0.tar.gz'
	unpacks to `texmf/', not to `share/texmf/'.  From Johannes.

	* Documentation: README.ami: Add note for German users about use
	of `CTAN:language/german/', i.e., `ghyph31.tex' and `german.sty'.
	Suggested by Johannes Gross <gross@gluon.physik.uni-kl.de>.

Fri, 21 Feb 1997 17:03:22 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Development: Integration of the `e-TeX 1.1' patches released by
	Bernd Raichle <raichle@informatik.uni-stuttgart.de> for inclusion
	with Web2c 7.0.  `e-tex' binary replaced by `etex' together with
	its `etex.pool' file. ==> Bug in SAS's "grep"; see "convert.rexx".

	* Documentation: README.ami: Change section about `e-TeX' for new
	`etex' binary and associated `etex.pool' file.

Thu, 20 Feb 1997 00:30:09 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* Implementation: Bug in the Amiga part of `elt-dirs.c'; double slash
	expansion was confused with the standard behaviour of the Amiga CLI.
	Bug reported by Bjrn Labitzke <HERMIT@kellis.berlinet.de>.

Tue, 11 Feb 1997 10:15:28 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* General installation: There are only two main directories in
	the AmiWeb2c distribution, AmiWeb2c/bin/ and AmiWeb2c/share/, in
	preparation of the "TeX Live CD" (http://www.tug.org/texlive.html).

	* Documentation: README.ami: Add new section about the specific
	points in the CD installation.

Sun, 9 Feb 1997 15:00:00 Andreas Scherer <scherer@physik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* AmiWeb2c 2.0 released to both CTAN (ftp://ftp.dante.de) and
	Aminet (ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de).
