A..2 Windows TEX shell

This utility makes no registry entries and does not use a setup wizard.

Go to Cvsnap1\SW\texutils\WinTeXShell and copy its contents to a folder that you create and name D:\texutils\WinTeXShell. Then copy the TexShell.exe shortcut to wherever you would like to initiate the shell from. (The simplest option is to drag it onto your desktop, but on an NT machine you might want to copy it to \Winnt\Profiles\AllUsers\Start Menu.)

At this point, you should have a fully functional Windows-oriented TEX installation. To test it, open the Windows TeX Shell and click on File|Main File. Select the .tex file that you used to test your MiKTeX installation, and click Open. You should see the source of your file in the editing window. Click on the TeX button to compile the file, and on the Preview button to view the .dvi output with Yap.

Proceed to the steps below only if you also wish to add the capability for automatic conversion from .tex to .html with L^ATEX2HTML.
