I accidentally deleted my copy of that post. ` Here it is: The guide (Version 1.1) has been around for some time and is about 40 pages long. Among other things of interest, Appendix C lists several errors I already have found in MTeX. I also generated several standard series of fonts which accompany the guide. The whole MuTeX package (MTeX+Guide+Fonts) can be FTPed from the following three locations stolaf.edu 130.71.128.1 pub/MuTeX.tar.Z yale-zoo-suned.arpa (suned.zoo.cs.yale.edu) 128.36.21.1 cs.ubc.ca 128.189.97.5 src/MuTeX/MuTeX.tar.Z (slow) If you plan on making this package available for FTP at your site, I would appreciate you letting me know your coordinates and the path to be used for retrieving MuTeX. I plan on keeping updating the list of these sites in the Preface of the forthcoming versions of this guide. Francois Jalbert ' jalbert@cs.ubc.ca For people in Europe I have made it available on our machine by anonymous FTP: host praxis.cs.ruu.nl [131.211.80.6], in subdirectory TEX: The files are compressed tar files: mtex.tar.Z contains the original files and the English user's guide. mtexfonts.tar.Z contains the tfm files and 300pk files. You need these only if you don't have metafont yourself. Both files are about 93KB. Don't forget binary mode!! You can also retrieve the files by mail. Send a message to mail-server@cs.ruu.nl with the following body: btoa send mtex end if you want the file to be btoa-encoded. An alternative is uuencode, which is the default.
