No, I'm serious. Keywords: TeX DVI ASCII text Message-ID: <372@blake.acs.washington.edu> Date: 8 Dec 88 21:03:31 GMT Reply-To: mcglk@blake.acs.washington.edu (Ken McGlothlen) Organization: Me? Organized? Lines: 19 This may sound a bit odd, but I'm looking for a set of macros for TeX to set TeX up for fixed-pitch output (including fixed spaces), and a DVI-to-ASCII "device" driver. I don't really care about right-justification, to be honest. I just want to be able to have a single, not terribly complicated TeX source file that I can output either in nice, neat normal TeX .DVI file, suitable for laser printer, *or*, with an \inputat the beginning, have it output a .DVI file which can be (moderately easily) be converted back into ASCII. Note: I do *not* want a deTeXer. I would like a genuine DVI->ASCII convertor. Source would be infinitely preferable; sort of that, I suppose I could get by with something that can run on (a) a VAX/VMS system, and (b) under (ugh) MS-DOS. APL and FORTH sources need not be sent; I could handle C or Pascal fairly easily. :) Thanks. . . . --Ken McGlothlen mcglk@blake.acs.washington.edu
