2.1.1 Installation
MiKTeX installation is easy using a setup wizard supplied with
the package. Do not, however, use the default installation folder name
of Program Files\MiKTeX , or any other folder name that embeds a space,
if you will also use LATEX2HTML with MiKTeX. I suggest that you
instead tell MiKTeX to install under D:\texutils . You can then use
the path names in Section A (and will be able to install the
NRAO variant of LATEX2HTML without editing any configuration scripts).
MiKTeX does not require administrator privilege to instal, but on an
NT system you should login as an administrator so that you can modify the path
to make the tex and latex commands available while working in a document
directory. For an installation on drive D:, you would add
D:\texutils\miktex\bin\; to the path, for example.
Other configuration options can be set up from MiKTeX's own Windows interface
at
Start|Programs|MikTeX2|MiKTeX Options.
The installed size of MiKTeX, including all common
fonts and utilities but not the source code, is 73 Mbytes.
To uninstall MiKTeX, use Start|Settings|Control Panel|, then click on
Add/Remove programs and again on MiKTeX 2 in the program list. The
uninstaller will undo everything except the path changes.
