The documentation, tutorial and other files is in .tex format in CVS. How can I convert them to a HTML or PDF format? I tried with pdftex (from tetex package) but it gives me structure errors. Thank you! Facundo Batista Desarrollo de Red fbatista@unifon.com.ar (54 11) 5130-4643 Cel: 15 5097 5024

You didn't say what platform you're using, so this might not help you. On a Unix system with LaTeX installed, you should be able to "cd" to the Doc directory and run "make html" or "make pdf". That *might* even work on Cygwin. For any other platforms, I've no idea. All the real logic of how to do the formatting is in Doc/tools/mkhowto. If that doesn't work for you, please let me know what platform and LaTeX distribution you're using, and what went wrong. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org>

FWIW, I know that 'mkhowto' works in Cygwin using Cygwin Python. I'd also personally suggest installing Cygwin as the fastest way to get a working LaTeX installation on Windows. Just go to www.cygwin.com, click on Install Now, and check the boxes for the LaTeX packages you need. You will probably at least want the 'tetex' and 'texmf' stuff.
