	The first things that needed attention were the fonts in
	the pk300 directory.  These are symbolic links to files
	in subdirectories named '*pt' (like '10pt'), but they
	all referred to path a path of the form
	/7959/usr/local/lib/tex/fonts/pk300/*pt.  (Might be
	misremembering the number.)  It was necessary to redo
	all of these symbolic links.

	I'm trying the latest xdvi from expo.lcs.mit.edu, and
	it looks good except for sometimes blowing up with a
	floating point exception, possibly on graphic special
	functions.

	Which program(s) do people use for printing .dvi files?

	(We have 2 different lpr programs plus lp, and the first
	try at printing a dvi file flopped.  Will try a bit later
	to generate iptex...)
