Hi, All, :/
(Newbie alert!)
I apologize in advance if cygwin isn't the correct forum for this request,
but I've been frustrated trying to get texi2dvi running on my Cygwin 1.1.4
installation. I'm trying to print out the Emacs Lisp Tutorial, which comes
as a .texi file in the source. Unfortunately, following the instructions in
the README and running
texi2dvi emacs-lisp-intro.texi
yields:
tex: not found
I assume this means that texi2dvi was looking for the TeX executable
(tex.exe?) and not finding it (yeah, I'm quick). I'm not sure if that was
supposed to be installed through the SETUP.EXE installer, but I sure haven't
had any luck finding a binary distribution for Cygwin or even a site listing
a Cygwin-compatible source.
If somebody could give me a hand getting a full TeX installation up and
running, that'd be great! Thanks in advance,
