Sorry about posting this to the newsgroup, but I am in a bind.
I am trying to install TeX82 on a CONVEX and am having
a bear of a time.  I have built web2c and am running convert
on the web programs in the TeXware directory, attempting to
build tangle.  However, no matter what I do, I get a syntax
error.  First off, how do I use web2c?  Do I run convert 
with no arguments?  If I do give convert arguments, I cannot
get it to work, for some reason convert mentions that any
arguments are invalid and then hangs. 

Can I build TeX at all without a pascal compiler (this is
important since we do not have a pascal compiler available)?

Again, sorry about posting an installation question to the
newsgroup, my email does not seem to be getting out of the
building these days, so this is my only recourse.
