                      Ported to RISC OS by Reuben Thomas


This file only contains material specific to the RISC OS port; for the rest
you should read the other documentation provided.

The sources came from CTAN (ftp.tex.ac.uk in my case).


Usage


N.B. If you have RISC OS 3.6 or earlier, you must put the CallASWI module
(included) in your boot sequence. If you have RISC OS 3.7 or later you can
delete it.

The nuweb binary should be copied into a directory in Run$Path; if you use
armTeX then !TeX.Bin is a good place.

To get files called "w.foo" to be recognised when you say "nuweb foo.w", you
must execute the command

Set UnixFS$sfix "a:c:cc:f:h:i:l:o:p:s:y:w"

or if you use GCC add :w to the Set UnixFS$sfix command in !GCC.!Run.

If you have RISC OS 3.5 or later then executing the command

Set nuweb_heap ""

will allow nuweb to use a dynamic area for its heap.

A good place to put the commands above is in !TeX.!Boot.


Known problems


None, but I'm sure there are some unknown ones; please tell me.


Acknowledgements


Thanks to Preston Briggs and John Ramsdell for writing nuweb and allowing me
to release my revised version.

Thanks too to the RISC OS porters of GNU C and the authors of UnixLib. These
two programs made this port trivial.

I am contactable until July 1998 at least at rrt1001@cam.ac.uk
