I'll read up on latex.fmt,
Stephen
I copied latex.ltx from the base directory into the parent
texmf directory because I didn't want to take a chance
on producing a copy of latex.fmt which overwrote the
existing file. The command is "initex latex.ltx" which
then produced a latex.fmt file. The output of the process
looked very much like the output which John produced at
http://ca.geocities.com/jrkrideau/LyX/LatexLog12nov05.pdf
latex.fmt is an executable type file with those weird squiqqleys.
I think John should try this and compare it to my result. It is a
bit long so I will send an attachment to him apart from the list.
I'm a bit worried that it won't work because of a malevolent
presence sabotaging the best laid plans of mice and men.
Scotts Steinbeck,
